What did you do to your Supra today?

[Stedy]

My wife and I took on the Australian Tarmac Rally over the weekend. If you're a fellow Aussie and want to enjoy your Supra on closed country roads for a weekend, this is the way. Amazing weekend. Highly recommended.

I looked into one of these but it was pretty expensive and speed limited to 130km/h. Open country roads are free and the speed limits are, well..

That's awesome mate!
Do you have any video of the lap?

@razorlab with the tune to give me that extra spice. Ended up being the fastest time out of the weekend for a production car. Only thing faster was a Radical.

Are you running stock turbo/fueling? Want to find a mild track tune for 93.

Stock turbo with stock fueling system. I ran a 93 tune previously for one event but wanted a little more power and got an E30 revision instead which is what I was on for the above event.

… suggestions.

Toolangi circuit; Great Alpine Road are always winners.. particularly on a weekday.

It's $1700 for the two full days and the ability to use the full road and give 100% focus to your driving does up the thrill. Working as team with your navigator, building trust between the two of you to go faster is also pretty thrilling. I'd recommend giving it a go at least once before you dismiss it.

I also like to support local Motorsports. Events like these are dying out due to the high costs of insurance and crappy Australian governments. In NSW these types of things are already outlawed and without support Victoria and QLD will likely eventually go the same way. They put a lot of work into these events for what I suspect is little financial return, its good to give back.

These look nice! Since they are covers, are the heated seats still working fine? Do they fit well? Pain to install?

The heated seats still work just take longer to heat up. They fit very tight, the fit is spot on. Took about 30-40 min to install, not too bad the hard part was getting the headrest pieces out. You basically just yank on the bottom corners and lift up really hard.

Another shift knob came. I like this one even better than the ghost.

My shop finished up my Pure 650 install today and hooboy it's exactly what I wanted. No noticeable change in spool and the thing wants to keep pushing out power through the whole rev range. E30 tune on this thing absolutely rips. Can't wait to get it on track and bully some corvettes and porsches.

what does the customer throttle mapping look and feel like?

Coded it tonight and will go for a drive tomorrow. Once you select custom, it defaults to Sport in Sport, so I've reset them both to "normal" to see if its different to what Sport normally feels like. I only ever drive in Sport mode anyway, and haven't coded Sport+.
