What did you do to your Supra today?

[Vertex]

Washed my car up good on Saturday and let a local kid do a photoshoot and some videos. Will post some photos etc once I get a link from him. Hoping it will be in the next week or two!

Also forgot to mention on original post, when I was detailing it for the shoot I noticed the tint I had done the week prior had a bubble appear that was not there originally on the passenger side pretty much dead center of the windshield. Found out there is a hair between the tint and the glass. I sent them a picture on Saturday and message about it not expecting to hear back from them till sometime today hopefully since Monday was a holiday. I tried calling earlier today as well around 9 and have yet to get a call back or message about it.

Agree. Took mine 2 weeks ago. The most fun I had all year.

Took it for a spirited drive after getting it back from the shop. The ADRO wing is absolutely glorious!

Any more pictures of this wing on your car? Can't decide on the tall or short uprights...Clean setup btw!

Got the photos already from the younger guy who wanted to take pics of my car this weekend. Don’t have videos yet but I will definitely share once they’re available to me. These were some of my favorites I picked out of the batch. There were 61 total

Changed oil, rotated tires, found a nail in one, bled brakes, full suspension nut and bolt check and found out that I am now going to have to pull off my drivers side coilover to change the top hat bearing and clearance the tower for it. 3 days before I leave to my next track event.....

At least you didn't find all of this out at the track.

I got 2 things of Endless RF-650 showing up today. the search for a better brake setup continues.

Which one, front or rear?

Hopefully running a line of window-trim like rubber should clean it up.

Depending on several things you can reshape CF to a degree. It requires a method to pull it into the desired position then have at it with a heat gun. Of course it's only an adjustment technique not anything else. On race bikes it was often quite easy. if you could lever the panels into a mounted position then the engine heat would create enough heat combined with the stressed install to mould them to the desired shape. Same can be done here but would require removal and probably some ratchet strap work and a heat gun.

was driver rear. Now sitting in the trunk of one of my other cars.

The rear by far the most common for flats.

I think it requires a bin to be honest. I've had two installers take a look and it fits as well as it is ever likely to fit. At a distance it looks fine but it's just annoying.

And just as an aside, the second installer accidentally scraped some paint off my bumper trying to fix it so yeah,my car is now at the shop getting patched. FML.

Ahhhhh the joy of tracking lol. Always something

Your brakes shouldn’t be an issue with that fluid and good pads. Bled and bed in properly

Right on time.

I was quick to condemn the fluid choice after seeing on here it wasn't the best option. I've bed in pads both oem and high friction countless times before.

Only other thing i can think of is that i should pressure bleed it next time instead of vacuum bleeding.

I do a regular old fashion bleed to get rid of all the old fluid and then finish off with a vacuum bleed. Has yet to fail me. I am too cheap to get a Motive bleeder.
