What did you do to your Supra today?

[sabrownfl]

Oil and filter change today.

There seems to be two ways to mount the ethanol sensor, you can either mount it high or low. But I wasn't able to mount it low without stressing the DME harness. Maybe you need to unplug all the DME connectors to mount it that way, and then put them all back. (?)

You can also mount it behind by the firewall. That is how I did it back when I used the same fittings.

I was doing 2-3 track days a month for 10 months out of the year for ~3years with the car, plus being at Tennessee Intl Raceway every weekend when not at the track.

I'd say the increased stress from the driving did it in. It's not as bad as I've seen, but it is a wear item.

I meant more along the lines of what driving conditions made you hear this clunk?

Initial takeoff.

Initial takeoff.

I've got a clunk in the rear that only happens at low speeds (under 8 mph) with some steering angle applied and I've been trying to figure out what it might be. Dealer says it's the tires "skipping" on the pavement which I don't believe for a second. lol

Was this with the MHD pnp kit? I dont remember the wires being long enough to put it there...

Good call out, no it was not. However I am about to install the MHD pnp kit on my M240i so I will let you know.

I actually hope it is because the M240i has a totally different hardline at the shock tower that does not have a 90* bend like the Supra does. It terminates vertical and lower.

I mounted mine in the same spot as @razorlab. I have the mhd kit. Can’t even tell it’s there. Plenty of wire to do it.

Did the audio “upgrade” still need to get zip ties so I can get the mesh on there but overall I am happy with my work.

Gaping @tadda holes are what we officially call them. You could also add some black mesh or black out that foam.

If you're lazy like me, I just seated the trim piece half an inch away from the box, on top of the carpet, to let the sound escape.

Went for a drive to visit my son on Chirstmas day and weird things happened.

I had a CEL pop up the day before - see image above - which I cleared that night. When I jumped in my car today the CEL appeared again straight away which is fine but... when I got home to check the codes, there were none reported.

And after starting the car again one more time, the CEL didn't come back.

#BMWThings?

Just over 6000 miles on my 2025 Supra that included track days a Barber, Sebring and Daytona. Changed the oil & filter and flushed the brakes. I was kind of surprised at how good the used oil and the brake fluid looked.

BMW electronics are black magic. Some
Of the codes are so weird that you wonder if the programmers were just putting stuff there to throw people off the scent of what is really happening.

Chickened out of selling it to a local guy this morning. Decided to just go pay it off and see if that keeps me from flip flopping

Welcome back haha. What made you decide the change of heart? Prob the fomo of the oil threads?

I've been flip flopping on it for the past few months. Mostly concerned with the long term of the platform and while I prefer to do my own work, the Supra can be more complex than I'm used to. Also wanting to get into tracking something but I'm not rich enough for the Supra to be a frequent track car.

BUT.... the feeling I got when I had a confirmed person coming to look at it and potentially buy it just flipped a switch.

I like the car way too much to get rid of it, even if I have some issues with it (that are mostly just in my head).
