    "Sold my STI" Supra Journal!!!

    Yeah for sure gets a lot of looks. I believe the lights in the bottom center on the rear are the reverse lights.

    "Sold my STI" Supra Journal!!!

    Well my STI is no more. Traded her in for a fresh new 2020 Supra in Tungsten Gray. So far she is bone stock and will probably stay that way for a while. I will for sure miss my STI, but come on... SUPRA!!! :tup:

    Yeah that will probably be one of my first mods to add a boost gauge haha

    Hello from Delaware

    The way I understood it was that the DME(ECU) can actuate the wastegate and valvetronic systems to essentially eliminate the need for a BOV. Yeah I am definitely in awe of the tech in this car. Worlds different than the sti. Honestly no clue what stock boost is as unfortunately there is no on...

    Hello from Delaware

    Yeah I imagine the start stop add some more wear and tear but I?m sure they account for that. When it restarts it is almost instant as well. No clue why they put the chain on the back, seems like a maintenance nightmare. shouldn?t ever really need to mess with it though. The bmw got a pretty...

    Hello from Delaware

    The start stop I think is only in automatics. It?s mainly to save fuel when sitting at idle. As soon as you take your foot off the brakes it starts back up. It can also be turned off manually or by switching to sport mode. This video gives a pretty in depth look into the new engine and about...

    It?s a premium edition so it has all sorts of crazy bells and whistles. Wireless apple CarPlay and wireless phone charger. Both seats are fully power adjustable including lumbar and adjustable width bolsters. Engine start/stop at red lights. Heads up display on the windshield. The engine also...

    Hello from Delaware

    6 miles on the clock when I test drove. 10 when I signed the paperwork. From what the dealer said, I was the first person to drive it not in ?transport? mode which limits speed to 25mph. There is a 1500 mile break in period I believe, but that is more to avoid constant rpm, sustained high rpm...

    Hello from Delaware

    Bought it new. Haven?t seen any used floating around yet. Only on my second tank of gas and not much civilized driving haha. I?ve been averaging in the low 20s mpg but cruising on the highway seems to be around 30. Just too tempting to bury the accelerator. Aside from the tranny, then only...

    Hello from Delaware

    Only thing I?m truly disappointed with is that they don?t offer a manual haha. Love the car so far though. TONS of torque. One of my favorite features is the exhaust actuator flap. Super quiet when I want it to be but in sport mode she screams and pops like an aftermarket exhaust. Much more...

    Hello from Delaware

    Been a while since I?ve been on here... work haha. Small update. Just added in the last couple days a new borla s type cat back and some fresh brakes. Love the borla so far, quiet at highway speeds (practically no drone) but nice and loud when you get on it. Nice deep tone. For brakes I went...

    Misfire on 1,2 and 3 now 2,3 and 4... help needed!

    definitely need a new map for the bigger injectors. most likely flooding the cylinders, causing the misfire. Talk to your tuner or HolyCrapItsFast about getting a base map worked up. :tup:

    Misfire on 1,2 and 3 now 2,3 and 4... help needed!

    Do you have a base map to account for the 1000cc injectors?

    Hello from Delaware

    came to a beautiful empty stretch of Highway 15 going through Tioga State forest in PA and let her rip :tup:. She definitely had a little more to pull, but unfortunately my straightaway was coming to an end :lol:

    Hello from Delaware

    Took a nice long road trip yesterday from home to my work site for the next few weeks up in Buffalo, NY. Intended to take more pictures but was having too much fun driving :D. Really nice mix of twisty 2 lane mountain roads and long sweeping 4 lane highways. Very few other cars on the road. Had...

    07 sti subframe lockdown bolt broken

    have you tried wedging something under the bolt head to put pressure on the nut while trying to remove? might give it enough grip to undo the bolt.
