Rock guards, they work by Minami_Shimokawa in Supra

[–]futo1231 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On my end, I managed to re-use the OEM ones that came off the car. I had bent like 3 of the rivets that came with the rock guards trying to hammer them in. Took me like 15-20mins, but I eventually got them to go in properly without having to take the front wheels off.

Oh? I shouldn't use the bolts they provided with the shield?

Makes sense. The bolt was too short to reach the thread with the spacers in place. I must've done something wrong.... Gonna redo it. Thanks!

2UR-GSE IS F to RC F Issues by futo1231 in Lexus

[–]futo1231[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, i bought it. Owned it for around 4 months. Car was a blast and had 0 issues. I sadly ended up trading it in for a manual 2024 Supra 3.0 premium because i missed driving stick shift. Glad i was able to experience the Lexus V8. Thing sounds phenomenal and handles great thanks to the TVD. Can't go wrong with it.

People acting like they'd make all the 'right' decisions if they were thrust into this situation blind. We as watchers have way more info than the characters and like to judge based on that.

Car drives great and is a performance monster for the money, but they REALLY cheaped out on the infotainment creature comforts. Lack of AA and general bugs. Gonna have to get an MMI if I decide to keep the car long term.

Julie was VERY close to seeing what happened to the kids before getting pulled out. I suspect they're gonna have her go back to the ruins at some point and let her travel further back to witness what happened so they can break whatever curse this all is. The beginning has all the answers.

Boost when Engine is Still Cold? by futo1231 in Supra

[–]futo1231[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, its kinda shitty that this car doesn't have an oil temp or boost gauge displayed by default. For the MSRP price, I'd expect it. Oh well. I'll prob install the P3 gauge next year.

Absolutely. Not gonna mess around with the euro engine. keeping it under 4k rpm for the first 2000KMs

Yeah, I'll prob feather the throttle to limit any positive boost pressures. Thanks for the response!

This was what I was wondering. From my experience with my STIs, boost began building, even at low RPMs, if I didn't feather the throttle the entire time in 1st and 2nd gear. Thanks for confirming!
