What did you do to your Supra today?

[LateBraker5]

Finally got around to doing the subwoofer mod that Tadda spelled out:

I’m actually shocked by the difference this made. I wasn’t expecting this much improvement in overall bass and sound quality, it’s pretty amazing.

sorry, forgot to take pics, was hurrying since I was losing daylight yesterday.

Finally got to take the car to the track.

There was only 2 other Supras while I was on track. The white one I was tailing just happened to be a manual.

After my 3rd session, I let my instructor drive the car. Big difference from how I drove it to how he drove it. Hoping to apply what I learned at my next track day.

Also, snapped a quick pic of the Toyota engineers who came from Japan.

I can’t wait to just drill two holes in the back! Thx for sharing man

That’s so cool ? dude!!!! Opens up another level with this car for sure. So much fun in addition to looking at her. Hope you take her back for more

@FLtrackdays, yup, drilled 2 holes, crammed some speaker wadding, cut some foam, laid down some Dynamat and closed cell foam ?

Not terrible difficult, but makes a difference!

It was cool to meet those Toyota dudes there - One of them had a yellow supra a91-cf but I didn't get a chance to look more at it when I noticed. It was parked in a separate area from the section they were in

I asked them about removing the 163mph speed limiter without tuning but was not given a way unfortunately ...

Totally agree, I couldn't believe how much difference it made! Transformed the sound.

Picked up my car from the wrap. I am NOT happy. It's a solid 10 foot wrap intended for a filming of a commercial....but I'm very very very very unhappy with the quality of the work. They didn't prep the car. They didn't remove my PPF and my OEM hood PPF. They didn't do the corners even remotely decent. Yellow is bleeding from crevices. And it's already peeling and I've had it for (1) day.

Cinema Vehicle Wraps of Atlanta + Millers' Decals in Acworth Atlanta are terrible.

That black liner thing on the headlights is the real crime tbh.

Supra with pink-eye LOL

Curious, if they wanted silver for a commercial why not just find a silver one to begin with??

Update: The car, which I had named Sasha, is totaled. Preliminary repair estimate, in total parts & labor was $41,254.48.

Was able to swap out my Armytrix downpipe, RK Ti exhaust, @NitroYellowMKV steering wheel, JB4, Injen intake, Raceseng shift knob, OEM+ hood vents & center caps, with the stock parts. I signed the papers, turned my keys in, and said my final goodbye yesterday afternoon. I expect her to resurface in the Salvage Registry, and I'll have to update the A91-MT owner's thread.

My insurance company (AmFam), towing service, and body shop experiences have all been truly excellent, which I feel so lucky for, as horror stories are so common.

Chapter two of my MKV story may be over, but chapter three is going to be long and amazing, where the fun will really begin in my opinion. As I wait for the check, the hunt for her replacement has already begun..

Damn really sorry to hear that. Hope that everyone in both cars is doing alright. Cars can be replaced.

I got about $8k over what I paid. When you get that far, let us know. I hope they’re still doing that well. And… if you happen to find a blue 6 speed with tan interior in your searching, gimme a shout. I have a buddy with a deposit on one. And we all know how that goes…

Did you not like the yellow before? Was it wrapped previously? Did they say they could ”unwrap“ it? Just curios and sorry to hear man…

Yours looks fantastic! I was just going to cut some holes and call it a day ? Do I have to put wadding, foam and Dynamat in there?

Wait… you were there too? That’s awesome ? I assumed we were speed limited but didn’t know it was 163mph. I bet you can do the BMW app code thing. Whole thread on stuff you can change. I’d mess with it if I knew I wouldn’t turn my car into a giant brick.

The face of the 2 piece wheel I designed finally being fabricated. But my Supra order is very far out... So these will just be sitting in the garage waiting.

But it is pretty neat seeing something I envisioned in my head coming to reality.

 

[bk5]

That's awesome. What did you use to design them? AutoCAD?

Wait... you decided to buy another supra?!?!

Thought you were going with a new platform.
