What did you do to your Supra today?

[FLtrackdays]

@Evolution @_Sp1ral0ut @FLtrackdays @bushido @zrk @Jesse DaBears

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..

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…

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.

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…

@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!

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?

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 ...

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.

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.

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

Appreciate it . It totally does. Hoping to take her back out there early next year after I do a few upgrades.

Oh dang I didn't even see that. Yeah it was cool checking out your car in-person. Truly a dedicated track build. I think I saw you a few times on the freeway. Hopefully I can get a truck too, to tow my car to the track, but then I might go too deep w/ track mods lol.

Trying to keep it somewhere in the middle b/w street and track.

No more 2.0 60 ft’s. Can’t wait to try them out in 2 weeks.

Prob never.

Prob never.

I see. So, you'll be doing that in two weeks then. Let us know the results.

Ok now I have to know how the 2 week joke was started.

Ok now I have to know how the 2 week joke was started.

*rolls up sleeves
*lights a cigarette
*pours a shot of whiskey

It all started years ago. There were folks promising an ECU unlock stateside (not Russia/Finland/Femto unlock). Other performance shops started promising products "next week". Next week became "two weeks". The community here started joking that everything will release "next week", which became "two weeks". We never received a released product or a final result on the products. I changed my avatar and started trolling the people promising products/results by using the cybernetic lady in the OG Total Recall movie. In the movie she malfunctions after saying "two weeks". She became I and I became her. Call it quantum entanglement. Now everything happens "in two weeks".

A man grows what he can, and he tends it. Because what you buy is what you own. And what you own...always comes home to you...

These tires allow me to get a 2.0 60 ft on the street. I've never been on a prepped surface so I can only imagine.

When are you trying these out?

I bought a set of these for my car but in 305. I'll be testing them out after the 3rd hard rainfall of spring next year.
