What did you do to your Supra today?

[Vertex]

I had a 350R as a track-day car, for a few months. I could have ultimately done better lap times on the R, BUT consumables would have cost quite a bit and I would have had to cut on the car.
The Supra feels so much better to drive, though. I feel like I'm attached to it and it's "listening to me". The R needed to be driven really hard to be fast.
For reference:
* At my local track, a guy with the exact same setup on his R did a 1'53" to my 1'58" (I only did one track day in the Mustang).
* In the Supra, with the exact same mods as the mustang (tires, brake pads and fluid, camber plates), I did a 1'57". And that is considering the camber plates on the mustang actually did something, the camber plates on the Supra didn't allow me much camber because I'm on stock suspension.

So, who knows what that supra is capable of in the right hands, though I will also say I have done an entire season of Time attack in the Supra. So I am obviously much more comfortable with it.
Still about 10 times more fun for me to drive then the mustang.
I do miss the carbon fiber wheels, though lol

Since I haven’t had nearly as much seat time in the Supra I can’t say everything about it is more fun yet. I will always miss the sound of the Mach 1, it was just such an amazing sounding car. The Supra definitely feels like it drives much better than the mustang though in pretty much every aspect. I unfortunately don’t have much access to more than 1 track that is somewhat close but not sure how good it actually is. Same thing with auto cross with the nearest one being at least 2ish hours away or a little more.

Need to figure out how to get myself down to my best buddies area so I can co drive auto cross with him and then track both our cars ?

Wait until you just do a basic tune on the supra, it completely changes it and then it really would kill that mustang after that.

You definitely don’t need a tune. You’ll turn a lot more than Mustang heads just driving her as is (with proper tires, fluid & rubber). I had one Shelby and GT350 or 500 guys keep coming up to me last weekend asking me more about the Supra. I think you’ll be quite surprised if you plan on doing more than your one free track day ?

NO. You shall be punished for your treachery.

Not everything in one day, but a few things. Smoked all the reflectors with kit from premium. Armaspeed wind deflectors. Magnaflow X-Mod. Window tint. Tinted windshield. PPF on the front end

Broke down and swapped the engine cover. Nod to the partnership

AA catted downpipe and HKS Hi-Power Exhaust

Looks like you could raise it up a little more. Tips hanging down a little low. Pic of mine.

I still don't understand why the exhaust tips, for supras, are twice the diameter as the exhaust tubing. Who y'all foolin'? ?

Uh, so @kaj's tip is smaller than the shaft? That's not how @SupraYYJ's looks.

Just curious how you adjusted the height of the tips on that exhaust?

Loved these mats in my CTR but they weren't that good for the Supra. Not sure if I got a defective one but the mat I got didn't fit well. Ended up going with the Weathertechs.

I know this is a super late reply, but wanted to que in anyone who still is having issues finding a good set of floor mats that are all weathers. My buddy had tuxmats in his and I just ordered a set for my new Supra. They fit perfectly and have very high side walls so you don't really ever have to remove them to clean out anything around them. Bonus points as it covers the entire foot rest so you don't have to replace it to match the other pedals or try pulling the mats out to clean the whole foot rest. I don't have them installed yet but did install the cargo one last night and it fits absolutely perfectly in the rear. 10/10 from me on tuxmats

Just loosen everything up and play around with the adjustment.

Oh ok so just within the exhaust itself, not the hangers. I figured that's how you did it. Most people that I see with the HKS exhaust have it hanging super low like that and it looks so bad.

Really? That’s the first time I’ve seen someone’s HKS sitting so low.
