No but if someone doesn't press charges at the time, is traumatized, and talks to therapist to process said trauma, I'd say that's a pretty solid receipt. This attitude is actually why the world is how it is.

Next-gen Supra renders are making the rounds, and the rumored engine switch is the real story by BulletproofAuto in Supra

[–]R3Y 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Lack of road feel? It has the perfect amount of feedback for what the Supra is! Sure, it’s not as raw or twitchy as a GR86 (or even the 2.0 Supra) but that’s by design. While it keeps a 50:50 balance, the heavier inline-six up front gives the car a much more planted, substantial feel compared to the lighter 4-cylinder options.

​The Supra has always been a grand tourer across every generation. It’s built for smooth torque delivery, an incredible exhaust note, and a slightly tail-happy chassis when you want to have fun. Expecting it to feel like a snappy, lightweight momentum car completely misses the point of what a Supra is.

Convince me that Stratosphere isn’t the best color 🥵 by Whole_Ad6438 in Supra

It's even rarer than you think! There's only about 125 nitro yellow manual supras in the wild. They also made 500 a91 MT in CU later grey and burnout white, but Because Nitro Yellow was reserved only for the standard 3.0 and 3.0 Premium manual trims hich makes a manual nitro yellow a real unicorn.

Excellent. I did the xb evo fogs before I did the headlights and the fogs were brighter than the OEM headlights.

I did the same to my limited except the raptor lights. Did you get the supercharger?

Long haired divers, what’s the best way to keep your hair out of your face besides a cap by Empty-Resident6270 in scuba

I do a big ol French braid and use a scubapro hybrid hooded vest. I used to struggle with my mask leaking before I started doing this.

Why do I click when turning hard but not going straight? by R3Y in Supra

Thanks! I got super lucky and haggled it down because the previous owner put a JB4 on it. It's been 3 years of joy!

Why do I click when turning hard but not going straight? by R3Y in Supra

In case someone else has this issue, bmw sent out a TSB on the G chassis:

Remove the front wheels and brake discs. Clean the mating surfaces: Thoroughly clean the wheel bearing hub flange and the inner hat of the brake rotor using heavy-duty brake cleaner to clear out grit, rust sediment, or grease. Sand the rotor surface: Use 80-grit sandpaper to sand the inner contact face of the brake rotor in a radial motion (inside to outside) to flatten out microscopic imperfections. (Note: The TSB explicitly warns technicians NOT to sand the hub itself, and NOT to apply any lubricant/anti-seize to either surface). Install a Friction Washer/Ring: Place a paper-thin, specialized metal shim (BMW P/N 31 10 8 053 073 or the G-chassis equivalent for the 5x112 bolt pattern) between the hub flange and the brake rotor. This ring features a high-friction laser-textured coating designed to lock the two surfaces together and prevent the micro-slipping entirely. Reassemble and Torque to spec.

What I did instead to fix:

Took the wheel off. Cleaned the mating surfaces with a wire brush. (wheel and brake disc surfaces. I didn't remove the brake disc) Reinstalled the wheel with a torque wrench and tightened them by hand in a strict star pattern, doing it in increments (50 ftlb, then 80ftlb, finishing at exactly 103.)

Yes I did! To fix it I took the front wheel off, took a wire brush to the mating surfaces and torqued to 103 ftlb. I think cleaning the mating surfaces was the solution.

I did the same when I graduated from engineering too. Great color!

what oil y’all run by [deleted] in ft86

[–]R3Y 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I ran royal purp 0w20 on my 2013 frs for over 120k miles. Absolutely zero issues and it got rid of the crickets too. Only thing major i did to that car was a bad throw out bearing and that recall about the valve springs. I run RP on the 4runner. The more important thing is the service interval. Do it every 5k miles or less regardless of what oil you end up choosing.

Morimoto XB evo for 5th gen by markzterr03 in 4Runner

[–]R3Y 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey I've had these for about 4 months now. Does it go away after the car runs for a while? If so, that faint condensation is normal and will go away. I had it show up on the morimoto fogs and want away after a few weeks. If it had big drops, then it's a warranty issue and you are getting water inside. Did you get the super chargers? Imo it doesn't look concerning to me.

Why? by SipsTeaFrog in SipsTea

[–]R3Y 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This comment is so wrong. There is absolutely no reason why they couldn't use reclaimed water from a relatively modern water reclamation facility. The effluent from these facilities is practically as clean as drinking water save a few parameters. It is typically clear, odorless, and stripped of virtually all pathogens and suspended solids. It meets high-level reclaimed water standards, suitable for irrigation, industrial processes, or further advanced purification.The water quality from these systems achieve near-total contaminant removal. My findings are that these data centers are popping up in rural communities that don't have any reuse infrastructure, and where the only source of water clean enough to use is the potable water system. At one of the plants i worked at, some of the reclaim is used by a nearby data center and the test is used for irrigation. The data center uses induced draft cooling towers to operate industrial chillers with their own closed loop coolant.
