What did you do to your Supra today?

[Rensuhlo]

PhD aka Jackie Ding ex Supra driver?

Yes

 

[Tacoma714]

Yes

I didn't know he was still active to MKV Supra drivers or anything surrounding the MKV. I thought he moved on to the G87 M2 as the next best thing.

He still sells parts for and supports the A90. Great resource.

...installed brake ducts

Verus?

I think you'll be happy with the Club Racers. I've been very pleased with them this summer.

Checked and corrected my alignment with my hubstands preparing for Watkins Glen next week. Ended up with 1/32" (1mm) toe-in each rear wheel, zero toe up front, and -3.2 degrees of negative camber.

Verus?

Yep. I was replacing the rotors anyway since the MX72s trashed them at my last track day, so I figured I’d throw the ducts on while I was in there. Install takes like 10 min if you already have the rotors off.

How level does the floor have to be for those hub stands? I like the idea of them but my garage floor has a slight slope to it

Honestly it has to be pretty flat and level to work right. The instructions don't really give a tolerance.

You could reach out to Paco Motorsports. They're really friendly and I'm sure they'd have a better answer.

The main thing they talk about in the instructions is the car rolling away lol.

Installed front and rear eibach sway bars and the verus brake master cylinder brace. Gonna see how it all feels at a track day tomorrow.

Thoughts about the MCB in particular?

Yeah that’s what I’m worried about, if I leave my creeper unattended and don’t put a wrench or something behind one of the wheels it’ll definitely roll itself out into the street

I chuckled at the thought of my dumb ass chasing my car on hubstands rolling into the street...but clearly that would really suck lmfao

Honestly I didn't notice that much of a difference in pedal feel, but it does help prevent over travel and firewall deformation.

Lol, I could definitely see myself trying to jump in and hit the breaks to try to stop it too. I’ll reach out to Paco and see what they say, thanks

I think it helped. Brake pedal definitely feels stiffer and it felt easier to do trail braking at the track yesterday.

Paco Motorsports

Ah Paco! Haven't heard about them in years. I purchased a set of seat rails early in my MX5's life and was the very last time my wife rode in the car Combined with the lowered suspension it made the stupid little car that much stupider and littler. Paco has a bunch of stuff for making off road MX5s which is pretty humorous to look through.
