What did you do to your Supra today?

[cactusA91]

I took my A91 to my local performance shop yesterday to get my AMS intake, AMS Heat Exchanger, and AMS charge pipe. They had a nice little surprise for me. They made a prototype guage pod with the supra logo (you cant see the logo from these pictures) and test fitted it. What do you guys think?

Me want. Where did you go to get all this done? Pricing all in?

Prepped her for her first autocross.

I'm trying to decide on a lowering spring..
In my experience coilovers are nice to control the actual ride height but one you set it once you'll probably never touch it again...
They are also nice if you want to corner balance your car...most people don't need to do this unless they're "track rats"...

I like it! Is it a chrono or what does it display? Also, how does it mount and do they sell them?

Some day I’ll own a 964. I was at an AX 2 years ago with a hopped up RS America. It sounded so glorious.

I’m excited to do this one stock. Next time she should have Cusco F+R sways plus their chassis braces. Will be interesting to see how much of a difference it all makes.

Man...I think Singer bought up all the 964...haha...
An aircooled Porsche is awesome ( other than the Porsche tax)..
I just sold an 86 Carrera ...but honestly don't really miss it...

Good luck with your project...the sway bars will absolutely make a difference....

When I had my e36 in order to make the rear rotate more easily I would dis connect the rear sway bar drop links...wonder if it'd be the same on the Supra?....

re: Singer - ikr? I love what they do with them though. Truly one of my mega jackpot dream cars.

As far as the Supra - having read some of your posts, I feel like we’re in a similar place. We’ve both dumped shit-tons of money into a car to try and max out a given platform. It’s fun to do. Once. But then you realize compromises can be OK sometimes. So with Supra I’m very much enjoying what she is (and is not). Mods are going to be slow and few.

It’s plenty fast and fun. I just want it a little flatter, sharper, and a stretch goal would be more steering feel. Curious if the SPL F control arms make the steering any more “feely”....

Also intend to do something to add a little more exhaust character. Likely just a catted DP but keep the stock exhaust, which is sacrilege for me. LOL.

Man I definitely feel ya...
I'm doing very few mods to the supra...way to easy to take things to the extreme n turn a good car into something you can enjoy anywhere but the track...
Regarding steering feel...the supra at speed feels ok...nothing like a mechanical connection but definitely better than my Silverado...lol...

It’s funny because I also have a 1993 Land Cruiser and I love the steering in it, surprisingly chatty. It also has 50/50 weight balance, which is fun.

 

[freeform911]

Wow...that's a tank...
I really hope the new supra holds up as well as the old land cruisers have.. but yes steering feel is definitely different in new model cars...
I personally didn't mind the way the supra felt on track..it gives enough feedback to let you know what it's doing...

BTW...Zkeep that land cruiser...prices are on the up?

 

[type-964]

Yeah I’ll never get rid of the 80-series. The one I bought had 2 owners, one of whom owned it for 23 years, did all maintenance, and kept every receipt. Second owner was a Cruiser fanatic.

The few times I’ve significantly overstepped it in the Supra it has felt very natural to me. My last car was a supercharged 86. I do wish Supra were a few 100lbs lighter, but it’s so much more refined. I did love the raw character of the 86, and it was great to be able to wring it out all the time. A scalpel in AX, a hoot on a wet race track, and so fun on a twisty backroad.

The Supra is very capable, but I’m still getting used to the extra weight. I find I have to think ahead a bit more, be more deliberate in my inputs.

I haven’t decided which gauge i want. It’s actually the piece behind the nav screen that surrounds the speaker. That entire piece gets replaced with the new one that has the gauge pod. Behind the nav screen is where the Supra logo would be. Will post once i get it installed in a couple weeks.
