I’d love to have a front and rear discrete dash cam for the Supra. Please share your thoughts and photos. Thanks

My Uniden R7 arrives later today. When you were installing yours did you notice if you could use Uniden's wire-tap or is it necessary to hardwire to the fuse box?
I just bought a mount that came with a mirror tap kit. This one specifically:

Radar Mount Mirror Mount Bracket... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0788XRBTV?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share

Wanted to get a blend mount but they seem pricey for what they are. Let me know if your R7 auto powers off if you hardwire.

IMHO, use the mirror tap to hardwire the R7. It’s easier to work with than the passenger fuse box. Save the fuse taps for hardwiring dash cams.

Edit: also just to remind folks, take the time to disconnect the negative battery terminal in the trunk before doing any electrical work.

Got some dyno action today 😊 pump e70 numbers. Not too shabby
Right in that spot I expected out of your build, Eli. E1R or Ignite Red should push you into the 1150-1200 range. I imagine you're going to leave torque about where it is?

Are you pulling any timing with the shitty fuel?

Yeah, torque is gonna be here or lower. Got a lot of room to play with it still, just don’t want to break more stuff.

timing is pretty spot on, Marin is working his magic with that. Just testing out some trans stuff now that I want to do no prep

Yeah, if you're doing no-prep, you're gonna wanna dial torque down just a tick.

This is what I'm running. I took it to Best Buy about 2 weeks ago. I'll post pictures when I stop being lazy lol.

Just get this and watch some videos on youtube on how to install it. It took me like 10 minutes because my dumbass struggle to push in the pins with my fingers. Once I figured out that by using a needle plier to put them in, it became easier.

Finally got the pile of parts that was sitting in my office installed. MST V2 intake, FTP charge pipe and an AA catted downpipe. Now just to wait for rain and traffic to go away so I can actually try it out.
Question for you (or anyone who knows): Does the MST v2 intake pull fresh air from the factory air inlet behind the passenger side headlight? I can't really tell from pictures or install videos of it (kinda looks like it does?) if it integrates it into the system as a whole or if it just kind of leaves it hanging out there blowing air into the engine compartment. I'm thinking about buying this, but I also have a Velossa Tech Fresh Air Intake System Thingy (TM) (I refuse to call it a "ram air" system like they advertise) waiting to be installed. The latter component would be a waste if the MST v2 didn't take advantage of the factory fresh air inlet. I appreciate any assistance anyone can provide. I'm doing a big round of upgrades for the car right meow!

The MST box encloses the air inlet. Nothing integrates into it, but the box at least keep the hot air from the engine/turbo from getting in there.

My man. Exactly what I needed. I appreciate it - thank you! I just pressed order on the airbox. Is the seal pretty solid where the metal air intake panels meet the inside of the engine compartment? Also where the turbo inlet pipe sticks through into the interior of the box created by the system? Seems like it's a pretty high-quality part but thought I would inquire. There's always my favorite tool ever for home and car projects if not... spray foam!
