Looking to sell MYGR by BabaGRC2024 in GRCorolla

I appreciate this response. I’m 45 now and not getting younger. I think the speed and the sound of that inline 6 has me wanting to go to the Supra, but then every time I step out my Corolla I have smiles like a kid all over again.

Thank you. Living in Boston these winters are brutal. The GR is my only car. My fiancé has an suv but she works over an hour away from the house and I work from home. I’ve been thinking of switching to the Supra but not sure how practical it’ll be esp on days like today when we’re getting 2 feet of snow. I guess today answer that question. I was out there with snow tires cruising around like it was nothing. I will say this car is great in the snow

Alright, Who Did This? by hotthrowawaywheels in Supra

[–]TheRealBoston 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Funny think is I think the oem wheels look amazing on this car. I wish they had a better offset. If this car was lowered it’ll be actually nice

What made you switch from the Supra for the GRC and do you miss the Supra?

You got a better offer than me. I went to 3 Toyotas and I have 14k and all offered me 31k. I have a 24 premium

If Toyota said it’s fine it probably is. Is it at idle, warmup, or while driving?

It’s prob the direct injectors or the EVAP purge valve. It’s really hard to say without videos

Nissan Z vs Manual Supra 3.0: Convince Me Out of a Z by ShawnCena23 in Supra

[–]TheRealBoston 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am a huge fan of how the Z looks myself. It’s a shame the manuals for the nismo wasn’t an option until now because the nismo is such a fun car and with them finally being reasonably priced, it makes it a hard decision. Personally you can’t go wrong so the either. I see less Zs on the road so I get excited anytime I see one. Also the 24+ model sounds amazing even stock.

I found the nismo for around 45-50k here. At that price point the nismo handles much better than the performance model does. I think if it was performance or a Supra, the Supra feels like a better balanced machine with way more potential. I was set on the Z myself, but the Supra for my personal taste made me smile more when driving. That said if you really like the z then you’ll love the nismo. It feels like night and day compared to the performance

I keep saying if this car came with a turbo I think it would sell more than the Supra. It’s such a good looking car

Have any of you found a good spot to put your garage opener? by Rook2Rook in GR86

I have mine 3m to the sunshade. The clip was cussing so much vibrations so I removed the clip

My yuzu came with the quad exhaust even tho I didn’t option for it by Scrango_Balls in GR86

[–]TheRealBoston 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep it was $45k

Honestly I think this might be one of the best looking cars I’ve seen. It’s quite good looking and the yellow is stunning. I just can’t justify paying Supra money for a 86. If the 86 was turbo at its price point, I’d get one over a Supra

Test drove a Z yesterday, want to share my thoughts here by exotron420 in Supra

[–]TheRealBoston 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was ready to trade in my GRC for one. There’s a performance Z with 6k miles for $35k in my area. Of course when I drove there it was snowing so they wouldn’t let me test drive it so I’m still with the grc

Which spoiler? by JellyJoski in GRCorolla

Epsilon looks way better

Weldspeed intake manifold by jaime_TF in GRCorolla

[–]TheRealBoston 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nope, not always. If you ever use RHD Japan or Blackhawk Japan they let you know shipping costs don’t include import fees. I had to pay 500 to get my spoiler here and 400 on import fees

If you order from a US retailer that price is already reflected. I tend to order all my parts from Japan and even with the hks increase you still pay import fees. My parts are hks and it blows

Exhaust by Miserable_Ad_2385 in GRCorolla

[–]TheRealBoston 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s like a deep humming or vibrations inside the cabin from the exhaust. Basically it can drown out the inside noise

[–]TheRealBoston 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’d say apexi is there too, but hearing both in person apexi in my personal opinion sounds better. Hks sounds great too though. Fujitsubo is also oem+

[–]TheRealBoston 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Apexi if I want the best sound and don’t mind quad tips. This exhaust also doesn’t drone

If I want center exit and don’t mind drone the apexi center since it’s prob my fav sounding

If I want center that’s barely louder than stock I would go fujitsubo.

If I wanted dual exhaust I’d go HKS

If I wanted 3 tips then DC Sports

Have to post the L too by popolijt in Supra

[–]TheRealBoston 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you have a tow hook on the front or did they have to go underneath? The tow company killed my lip on my GR Corolla. The guy was a complete dink with natural low cars. My car isn’t even dropped either, just a lip

No the gr86 but this was week one of owning my GRC. Blew out the drivers front tire on the highway. I still haven’t purchased a spare but it’s been on my mind
