What did you do to your Supra today?

[Deighvid]

Made it out to Supras in Vegas. Got to do many laps on the Spring mountain track, which was an awesome place. Tore up the auto-x track for some extra fun (left some nice lines through the finish) and even got to meet @Carl - Driveway Labs. More fun to come over these next 2 days.

Bro how tf did I not know you were out there!? Lmao

I get you. Ya I'm fine overall. Ill just drive one of my other cars for the time being. Parts availability is my main concern. Hopefully nothing is on never ending b/o. I towed it back to my shop (since it was only 1/4 mile away) so im going to pop the wheel off tomorrow to see the extent of the damage. Got to wait 10 days before they release the police report to see who is covering what. Luckily I hit no cars. The other cars hit me so nothing should go on my record, hopefully. Still not sure if I want it to be totaled or not. The quest to get another supra won't be easy since I will buy new again.

Another angle or two of the damage.

Omg and then I see this catching up in this thread dude I'm sorry that's terrible

Managed to cross the 1200 mile run in period..... been very careful to take it easy and stick to a proper "run in" cycle on the engine since buying it.

It was great to start giving it a bit more power and really feel what it's like. Very impressed with the car in general now. It was killing g me holding back for so long, but totally worth it. Time to buy an oil filter and some GR oil and give it a quick change out and inspect the filter.

Playing around front end..ended up with this.I like the way it turned out. Makes the front end more traditional and less polarizing. Gets rid of the fangs.

Some new Toyota owners at their free track day (mandatory AM track meeting)

buddy going out for his session

Down time between wife’s session and mine

Room for cans during lunch at Wawa

Options at Sebring, off track. Higher octane at the track $$$

Great time to be a Toyota owner

Damn. Makes me wish I had used my (still unused) NASA day there. I myself ended up at a track day!



I also took a day trip up to the tail of the dragon.

I could have sworn I saw your car out there but didnt put the 2 together....

Yep, that happened right after I got back from SIV. But hey, at least I made it home from the event.

Installed the new 2023 strut tower brace and got rd of the ugly arse electrical conduct within the flattened ends.

Yup! I was competing in the GR Movement group.

Damn man! Hopefully you can get it back up and running and there's no permanent damage.

Put a big wang so I can take flight soon. Also I'm going to be going to Dallas halloween weekend for MSR Cresson (my free NASA day), super hyped. Is anyone else going from here? I'll be in Dallas 27-29.

Not gonna lie I broke the one next to it on my 2021. Just used a plastic-weld epoxy to fix it, and afterwards it was five times stronger than original. No sweat.

Thanks for the tip, I was able to find some Permatex plastic weld. Got it applied with a thin tip screwdriver, and then used an xacto knife to remove just enough material to get the connector to click in

Perfect! No one will ever know but you, and the connectors will sit neatly where they belong.

First, shoutout to @Meraki Autoworks (Josh!) for the hookup. I ordered exhaust and a brace, and this guy has it delivered across the country NEXT DAY. seriously and price was better than anyone else. Thanks Josh.

This past weekend i installed HKS hi-power. sucked getting it aligned 100% by myself. I highly recommend a second hand and a lift, I had neither. (more pics to follow on this)

Here are some pics of the car as I haven't posted any yet... the install is at the end. I don't have a final install pic as it got dark. I did get pics of me balancing the stock exhaust with a jack so I could unbolt everything. I also used the jack to lower it slowly as I pulled. Popped right off.

Getting a turbo and mani installed today and will update with those pics tonight.

Today before I drove to EPC for the turbo/mani install

Again, I'll post some pics of the actual exhaust when I get it back Thursday night.
