This one is called Supra vs World.
It has many exapmples of how the boost kicks in on the highway against most every car you can think of and even a couple of bikes.

it's implied.

Not so much of an update as it is just me keeping track of the small things. Finally drained and refilled the rear diff and trans. Easy job, not expensive, but I don't think it has ever been done. The gear oil had quite a bit of metal shavings in it. Not an abnormal amount, but the car is 19 years and 91,000 miles old. Definitely should have been flushed by now. Trans fluid was free of metal shavings but still pretty old. While I was under there I decided it would be a good idea to change my trans mount. It's too easy to simply ignore, even if the old one wasn't completely worn out yet.






That's all for now. After this weekend I'm turning the boost down and focusing on freshening up the car. Again, nothing to update, just keeping track of the little things.

It is if you use this as recommended: https://www.amazon.com/Toyota-Genuine-Fluid...e/dp/B004SL86M6 That $100 fill, mmm...

It's glorified ATF. Yet, some people still swear it's literally the only choice to fill the V160 with, despite all the evidence that it's just ATF, nothing more. One guy even sent several samples off for analysis and found that Castrol Transmax for imports as well as Toyota T-IV ATF are virtually identical and perfectly suitable replacements for V160 juice.

Just like GM's MTF for the T-56, but at least it's only $6 a quart.

Should've gone with the TRD mount. don't recall if it's discontinued doe....

My tranny is 80% V160 jizz and 20% synthetic ATF. so far, no problems.

Do another change of your rear diff fluid in a few thousand miles to flush out the rest of the metal shavings. Rear TT diff ain't cheap. lol

Finally got rid of my aging side mount intercooler and got a FMIC.






That's all, not much of an update.

Hey look you left the crash bar intact!

"I don't understand why it's overheating"

Looks mighty fine!

Safety first! I wouldn't do it any other way. If a mod compromises the car, it's just not worth it in my opinion.



A lot of intercoolers for the Supra do have this issue but the HKS Type S is relatively small as far as Supra FMIC's go, and allegedly doesn't contribute to any overheating issues. However it's pretty hot up here so real world results are still TBD.



Thanks! It's gotta be, like, 1,000 hp now. Maybe even 1,100. But realistically I didn't do this as an upgrade or to squeeze every last hp out of the car. I'm just trying to combat increased IAT's and replace a pretty beat up stock side mount.

If it runs a little warm just come back down to where the air is thicker.

Subarus run better on Colorado air. you should trade it in.

He's not a lesbian.

did you just assume his/her's gender?

He/she could also be a lesbian trapped in a man's body, let's not assume their gender identity or sexual orientation either.

I like cars. I'm not entirely sure what gender that makes me.

Well with hair like they have...

I think it makes you an automaton.
