What did you do to your Supra today?

[NitroYellowMKV]

Small dent on hood, and multiple very very small chips on both paint on windows. I think the worst is the windshield, it's covered in lots of dots (chips). Florida law allow you one free windshield change per year, so I might just take advantage of that

lost mine last week too hail.

Installed my wheel courtesy of @NitroYellowMKV ! It's so much better than the OEM wheel it's not even funny. I need to clean up my floor mats though,

this one came out so so good... the matching blue stitching and silver Center trim ring, I love it!

Same issue, or did it fully crack?

I'm hoping it's the windshield @calmeda1. When I initially read @NitroYellowMKV's message, I thought he meant the car was totaled.

Also... hail in Florida...

2 years with the car and I always told myself I’d get comfortable with the power, test some limits (not all since that’s at the track) and get so familiar before I do anything to it. I had Bimtech put on a downpipe and JB4 to start the beginning of a new journey with the car.

What’s nice is after so much time spent stock, everything added feels like brand new car with so many memories already behind it as a stock car.

I changed my oil at 1200 and spent the far majority of the time trying to recover a portable light that dropped down to the belly pan. I can’t believe how thin that 0-20 is sheesh.

Got some new rears in today. I was having a hell of a time finding these in the exact specs I wanted (18x10 +35 Matte Black) without a 6 month wait from all the US vendors since they would have to order them from Enkei. I ended up stumbling across an ebay store based out of Japan that had a large selection and went to their direct english website (https://www.transporterjapan.com/) and shot them a message and they had them in stock. They normally sell them in sets of 4 but they were more than happy to make a 2 wheel listing for me to purchase. I almost can't believe it was real. I got them for $445 a piece (free shipping) while most US shops were selling them for ~$540 and I possibly would have had to pay tax and shipping. It took about a week for them to ship out as I think they had to get them from their distributor in Japan but then they shipped them on Monday and I received them today. Absolutely insane.

Unfortunately they didn't have fronts available in 18x9 +25 so I shot @Meraki Autoworks a message and they had some available immediately. I decided it was worth it to pay a little more to get them now from a US vendor. I should be getting them by the end of this week and my new RE-71RS tires soon thereafter to wrap them in.

Beautiful wheels ? What size tires are you going to run and are you going to track her?

Agreed! Should be an easy fix.

I'm mainly glad that it wasn't as bad as I thought it was going to be. I was stuck and parked at the highway while getting pelted for 15 minutes straight. Nobody could move, and I was freaking out. Once the hail stopped, I kept driving for 20 more minutes home thinking how bad the car must be, but gladly it's all good

We rarely get that down here in SWFL but… when driving out of State, TampaBay Area is notorious for crazy ass weather. I will usually head for an underpass. Or drive through it just to get out of it faster. That sucks dude! At least you weren’t one of those people driving with their hazard lights on ? Which is illegal in Florida thank gawd. But many still do it ?

Installed BimmerLink and went down a rabbit hole of mysterious error codes. Turned off ASD and opened the valve.

I can't remember if it explains it anywhere in the app, but that doesn't open the exhaust valve permanently. Only while bimmercode is connected.

Picked it up from ceramic coating where it got 2 coats of Carpro finest reserve. Unfortunately the weather wasnt too good this day but I still snapped a new pic.

That rear with the fog light is just tooo sexy ?

I noticed that. However, on second usage today when I plugged it back in, it remembered my settings and re-opened the valve as soon as I connected the app.

I find the stock exhaust to be underwhelming in this car, so I ordered AA Catted and an MBRP catback earlier this week.

I'm going to pick up some RE-71RS in 265/35 and 295/35. This'll mainly be for autocross right now. I'm my region's novice ambassador so I make sure everyone new gets situated and because of that I made friends with a guy who works for Bridgestone so I might be able to get them for a significant discount.

I do track her but I like to use OEM takes offs that I can buy cheap from other people. Cuts down on cost for tire consumables and I actually really like them. They're super predictable on track and have great longevity. Currently working my way up through NASA ranks and want to wait until I'm running TT to get better times. At that point I'll probably dual use the wheels.

It's crazy what even map 1 on JB4 does in terms of "responsiveness" to the car compared to stock. Just installed my last weekend and have been very pleased with the difference. Everything just feels a lot smoother. Can't wait to experience what a custom JB4 map on the car.

I wish I had your level of self control so I could have that "new car" feel a year or two down the road. I tell myself I'll wait for certain things, but really I feel like I just rush to get it just how I'd like it. That said I get a lot of enjoyment just working on the car and knowing how I customized certain things to my liking, if it was just about how the car drives I'd probably be able to wait.
