Cut out my kidney, sold it to a guy behind a clapped out KFC in town and used said kidney money to purchase the ADRO kit... Look forward to getting it in about 15 months.. so.. šŸ„“
I'm currently in the same position with regards to Adro.. any leads on that kidney dealer?

When did you order? And did you order direct from ADRO? Iā€™m hoping I donā€™t have to wait 7 millennia but who knows lol

Wife and I made it to our first track day with the Supra (Homestead with Chin). It really is an amazing platform out of the box and upset a lot of egos.

The brakes did fine with RBF600 fluid, but I didn't love the brake feel. Minor gripe. I ended up melting my exhaust flap actuator, but otherwise, the car was an absolute champ. Drove it ~5 hours home afterwards.

Love it šŸ˜ If those Porsches were in the same group as you, not familiar with the Supra, probably scratching their heads for sure lol.

I do have this:

and bleed my brakes more often than most. Rock solid pedal feel. Iā€™m so glad you did it and hope you didnā€™t get too much rain. Weā€™re going through an awful winter in that regard so far. Hope to see you at my next track day/weekend šŸ˜ƒ

Great pics and report - posts like this make me want to make a track day a priority for 2024.

Added some turbo noises. Not disappointed.

Seeing your strut bar, I wanted one also. I called the local dealership and they told me they couldn't sell it to me, and that it was VIN based. I have never heard of this... I got online and found a dealership in upstate that had one listed on Ebay.

Never call the local dealer. Instead, get onto Toyotaā€™s national part website, find the part you want, then towards to bottom they show a list of local dealers. Chose whichever dealer you want (they will each show the same part for a different price, usually cheaper than the national site), and just order it as a ā€œstoreā€ pick-up so shipping will be free. No VIN number required.

~ I ordered mine through the local dealer as well... no vin required and they price matched the lowest online Toyota pricing I found.
