The A70TTR Dedication Thread!

@a70 I was wondering your opinion on the test cars that were being driven in Spain power level wise. Personally I think it is probable that the testers were driving a German spec car, (with the particulate filter that robs a good chunk of power). What is your take ?

I thought that was confirmed? especially since you have to abide by emissions laws to register the car for public roads

Is Spain included within this German emission standard as well ? I know there was some back and forth on the matter but I wasn't sure if there was a concrete answer.

It's the EU standard, so yes it does

Ahhhh well thats great news then, we can say with a fairly strong degree of certainty that the North American spec cars will have a healthy power bump over the EU cars.

 

[A70TTR]

Given what has been said internally and what we can publically deduce from the Z4, yes, but still best to assume the car has less power just in case.

@A70TTR will the MKV interior be sealed off for all of its remaining appearances?

 

[Syed Shah]

Can the particulate filter be removed?

@A70TTR - with the release of specs for the new M340i, it’s safe to say that BMW is utilizing the new motor Toyota co-developed right?

I don’t see the US Spec Supra getting the EU motor. If we do happen to get the top rated motor, can one assume that the Supra could quite possibly hit 0-60 under 4 sec? Especially considering the M340i hits that in 4.2 sec, while weighing in at almost 3600 lbs.

All “hypothetical” of course haha

I wouldnt assume anything at this point, but I still expect the Supra to be in the range of ~4s 0-60 in production form.

Gotcha. I’ll stop assuming then haha. Maybe they did throw a bunch of nonsense into the Supra like you mentioned in the other thread lol

how many significant figures on that "4 seconds"

@A70TTR after seeing the parts catalog is there anything that surprised you toyota went through with?

 

[A70TTR]

yes, I'll PM you though.

 

[A70TTR]

Something I can mention is that the rpm shown in the reviews is not final, but not for the reasons some may think.

Hint, the A90 is a new vehicle.



Also, stock run of the mill B58 redline is 7k...
