What did you do to your Supra today?

[puzzled]

Thanks guys. I checked my VIN and the only recalls shown are the brake diaphragm exploding upon startup one and the stupid headlight adjuster plug.

So my car has not done the first recall (2nd one I already checked and it was fine on mine) as I defeated auto engine start/stop via Bimmercode and always keep my foot planted on the brake pedal well beyond 2-3 sec after starting the engine.

That said, in 2026 I hear people can unlock ECU's like $5 locker room pad locks. Would it benefit me to get the recall done to get the larger CarPlay screen? Or still pretend this pre-flashed car is worth more than a post-flashed car..?

Why on earth would it be worth more pre brake recall? lmao

Because one can flash the ECU without doing the unlock maybe? wtf

You can do that post recall too. I did, as did everyone else. Changes nothing with the worth of the car.

I think you are conflating post June 2020 unlocks with pre June 2020.

I love when you state dumb wrong things, then when someone corrects you with facts, you still think the other person is the dumb one. I'm sure you will double down on that in your reply.

Self-tuned my car on MHD today

Just low boost for now for testing purposes (roughly stock power).
Thanks again @razorlab for the help and guides!

What are you logging with? Your sample rate still looks crap, unless this is like a 1st or 2nd gear pull?

EDIT: After looking at the actual log, doesn't look so bad.

4th gear! Got rid of a lot of parameters too. Yep just need to work on the more dynamic boost stuff, partial throttle, shifting, etc. Then I'll start turning it up.

Make sure you log TPS too so you can see if the throttle is closing.

It's good practice to let the PID raise WGDC to meet target boost instead of reducing WGDC to meet target boost. So leave a little buffer. Just know that WGDC for a given boost target will fluctuate in cooler and warmer ambient temps. So make sure your PID tables have enough headroom for when things get warmer.

Was that June 2020 or June 2021? I thought that was a 2021 and separate issue.

Based on what I remember is people that had my year cars got the recall done and it locked the ECU. My question was in 2026 whether having the pre-recall ECU was still worth anything considering it appears people can get the ECU's unlocked. Based on your smartarse response, I suppose the answer is no.

So what does one need to do? Remove the ECU to send it in somewhere to get this done? That's a pita, no?

I think you are an arsehole. I know cause I am one. Welcome to the club.

June 2020.

Unlock of a pre June 2020 is way different than a post June 2020. This is what I meant that you are conflating the two.

Pre = quick unlock at home or any local shop that has MHD/Mission unlocker. Takes me less than a minute. Can even been doing with just software at this point.
Post = Autotuner or Femto trip.

Yes, now that AT and Femto unlocks are $500 or less and in the states and is a full unlock that basically makes DME's act as pre June 2020, pre and post June 2020 doesn't really mean much anymore.

Based on facts, I know you are an arsehole. Not an opinion.

So the posts that were saying post-recall (for brake diaphragm) locked their ECU.. what was that about? Were they just confusing the above? I'm just going by what others posted.. as I am with your post.

I’m not going to explain the same thing again for a third time. If you can’t comprehend, glhf.

Thanks for confirming, man. You're alright.

It looks great. Do you have a link for that lip?

Completely forgot to link it, whoops!

Keep in mind that in order to install it you will have to remove the front bumper.
