What did you do to your Supra today?

[jmikes]

Went on a trip to Orlando and back today, saw The Fast and The Furious (re-released for its 25th anniversary) with some friends. Been forever since I've been to a theater, didn't think a "medium soda and medium popcorn" would mean a 32OZ soda and a 12"x6"x6" bag of popcorn...

The MHD OTS E40 Stage 2 map I flashed last week felt really good for the trip and the bits of fun driving I got to do today, and I learned first hand that with this map PS4S's don't really suffice on the street for 2nd/3rd gear pulls and launches. Crazy how big of a difference there is jumping from a smooth JB4 E40 map to MHD.

Jumping on this thread for the first time... (will just link my build below)
But, recently installed Eibach front & rear sway bars + SPL endlinks, and got my car re-aligned.

Astonished any shop would call that a successful alignment. Yikes.

Your total comes to $85.26.....

Took the Supra out for a little trip. Ended up 1,000 miles from home. Salzburg, Austria

Re-flashed MHD Stage 2 OTS as MHD said there had been an update.. and also to re-experience the oil levels can't be read bug that MHD says isn't on them.

Drove into work today and my office is behind the police / national guard line for the DC Indy car race. I slowly drove around the barricade and the police and troops met me. Showed my pass and office told me that there was a problem. Started getting nervous until he told me that he'd have to park it.

Saturday hung out with some local forum members at C&C

Sunday installed some Artisan Spirit rear spats. Continuing my quest for OEM+ perfection

Anniversary wing on this would look nice

Uhh. So it works before the flash but not after and it’s not them… okay. So can it still be read with Bimmerlink? I haven’t had any oil issues so not a big deal just odd they say it’s not on them.

I've tuned a bunch of MT's and never once had that issue. Must be an OTS thing, or maybe even something with your specific BIN ID.

What is your BIN ID @BMWAF?

 

[VroomBroom]

Installed 10" subwoofer and LC2i LOC. Much improved sound just need to dial in EQ.

While I always get the oil error or a tyre pressure warning after I flash, after letting the car sit overnight, the error has gone away.

@razorlab How do I find the BIN ID? I can't see anything like that in Bimmerlink or the MHD app.

My I-Level is S18T-23-7-505

Yeah. I always get a weird error after I flash - and only after I flash. I have always suspected that flashing somehow wipes some temporary memory that stores oil/tyre pressure values as the errors have always gone away after a short drive (and new values entered memory?) Of course, this time the errors simply disappeared themselves after sitting in the garage overnight.

So yeah, I have no idea what is going on. Probably just #BMWThings.

Installed the Do88 non mera Intake Manifold since my last time attack pulled so much timing. I chose the do88 so I can put the engine cover over it since I am a red car in Cali. 7f over ambient temp of 100f although tested on my test route in the streets with stoplights. I will be logging for next track day 9/5 and 9/12 for repeatable data.

Pretty straightforward install although manual was spotty. I originally followed csf's installation only to find that the coolant line routing was reversed after clarifying with Do88 (Should've followed the manual for the routing). I atleast got to log reversed vs corrected to find that corrected was overall 6f lower as well as my cortisol lower.

Would love to hear feedback then! Haven’t driven the car on track yet (my car is 60/40 track:street, meaning i dont care about most “street drivability” aspects). Maybe the caster split but what do i know! Thanks!

Spark plugs and oil change today at 42k miles! First of my FCPEuro purchases.

Word of advice, just buy a non magnetic socket & buy a separate magnetic tool to remove them. Absolutely destroyed the magnet in the first 2 plugs.

Had a hell of a time figuring out what I messed up just to realize the socket was junk. Coil Packs can also be used to remove the plugs!

BMS charge pipe w/ the blow off valve should arrive tomorrow. It's been on back order for a bit, so more fun to be had!

Maybe I'll do the intake manifold in... 2 more weeks...

I bought this tool few years ago - never had an issue with changing out spark plugs
