What did you do to your Supra today?

[ky.supra]

Not today but went up to Vermont for July 4 weekend. On the way back home stopped by saratoga springs and walkway over the hudson state historic park

Also hit 80k miles

People are doing way cooler things but I finished polishing everything on my new 26 but still need to polish the bumper and figure out how to prep the plastics for a coating....waiting for my Armour Quartz to come in...may use phobic on the plastics and test it out in an inconspicuous area first. Can't wait to get my break in miles done but need to get the coating done first. Killing me waiting to drive it but I have to take advantage of the car being new and having just 3 ph washed and clay barred it. The 1200 mile break in is brutally long though and this is my second Supra - it's a good thing it's a joy to drive from just being manual!

Two days posting in a row? This must be bad luck...

Car went into limp mode last night w/ 120308 / 120408 when I hit redline in 4th - logs showed it missing boost target by a substantial margin. Thought it might be someplace on the intake system, so spent the morning tearing it apart. Found two loose hose clamps. Got them replaced today, car seems to be behaving much better now.
Need to do a pull later in the evening for the tuner to make sure all the logs look good After that, I still got this damn intake manifold that needs to be installed.

Ah well, 2026 goals...

yo! how hard was it to get to the hose clamps? Same thing happened to me last night.

Yesterday and today... SCCA Track Event at Sebring Internationial Raceway. Club Course, so not full length, but had a blast! Heat was BRUTAL though. Summer in Florida is not for the faint of heart.

This was my first time at this track. Turned a best lap of 1:19.143 this morning, had a few others in the 19s but mostly 20s-22s due to traffic.

Got a new plate

 

[st4ck0v3rfl0w]

Mounted my spare set of 23 wheels + fresh tires. Bumped the fronts up to 265 and rears to 285.

I like the OEM wheel design + weight, but really don't care for black wheels. After stressing color chips at the powder coater I finally landed on a color that I fell in love with. For a little extra pop I disassembled the factory center caps and vinyl wrapped them red. I think they turned out awesome.

Yea the silver looks good. I messed with that colour and a few others via AI a while back

Nice, that looks really bright for powder coat. What's the name of the colour?

Bent a fuckin rim...

Bent a fuckin rim...

How did you do that?

 

[licklobster]

Bent a fuckin rim...

cheap cast wheel, bound to happen

 

[_Sp1ral0ut]

How did you do that?

Alibaba wheel - came with a quick release valve for tire pressure. Premium upgrade for wheels. No more wasting time airing up and down between activities - drift to track to drag in seconds. I have a set on order.

They should arrive in two weeks.

How did you do that?

Pot hole on the edge of the road - wasn't even going very fast but got forced over there.

For the record though, the wheels were hand built from a rusty tin can, 5 crowbars, an old spacer, and a lot of j-b weld.

I had it repaired yesterday - seems OK now, gotta spend some quality time with it to re-build my trust levels tho...

Very sorry to hear that. What was your air pressure?
