What did you do to your Supra today?

Became a BMW

The online trolls and Toyota purists can finally rest now. It’s been a long journey for them not giving in giving the MKV a hard time.

Got my HKS Hipermax R coils installed yesterday. Running pretty much all of ADRO and HKS' stuff now, which has been my goal ever since I got this car. I have very little experience with coils, so I was worried that these would feel extremely rough on our terrible roads. I can only compare to stock and the HKS HAS but these feel amazing by comparison. Definitely stiffer but still very comfortable. Currently on the default 15/30 clicks setting. Will probably drive on that for a couple weeks before adjusting.

Looks awesome! How much lower than stock? Any concerns about scraping?

I did nothing other than patiently wait for my shop to fit a carbon fibre diffuser.

Thank you! It’s about .75” lower all around. The rear is settling a lot more than I’d like (gap is less than a finger already), so I’m probably going to raise it 15mm when I come back for alignment. Preferably, I want about 1.5 finger gap all around.

I’m not too concerned with scraping these days. I used to run about 15mm lower than this, plus my old kit lost me about 5mm of height, and I still had no major issues. What stressed me out was that my old side skirts would scrape over large speed bumps (just a tiny part of them). Not enough to do any real damage but hearing it every time was stressful, so I decided to raise it.

sorry to hear man! Time for some better pads and fluid so you can go out there and tear it up all day. So much more enjoyable when you can just drive and not have to worry about the brakes going out.

Changed out rotors and pads but noticed this leak. Anyone happen to know what I'm leaking? This right under the driver side farther back than the wheel well. It's dripping down through those triple dot holes. I'm trying to remove the cover to check it out in the meantime.

Update I'm pretty sure it's brake fluid. I opened the hood and the reservoir has fluid around it and it's overflowing. I'm assuming this is because I pushed the pistons back which caused it to overflow back up through the top to relieve pressure. Anything I should be cautious about since that happened?

Brake fluid doesn't like paint would be one. Dragging brakes another with an overfull reservoir.

Drive 6 hours on the blue ridge parkway and drove the Copperhead Loop (NC). Doing the Little Switzerland Loop and Devils Whip today.

Wash the car in that area right away to get rid of the brake fluid. Use soap and water the best you can and try and rinse in all the books and crannies around and below the brake master cylinder.

Had some fun beating up on Porsches at Pocono Raceway this weekend. Mega course. Those banked curves are not for the faint of heart for sure.

 

[J29DB03]

Went to start it, all kinds of end-of-the-world noises started happening (and none of them my exhaust). Popped in the OBD adapter, pulled up BimmerLink, read the codes, all pertaining to voltage.

Fortunately, it's Memorial Day weekend which means... sales!

Installed verus aos and cusco front bar, cut up the Apr cooling plate to fit. And getting ready to install Adro front lip and some mismatched rear spats and side skirt.
