Looks good, and toyota builds a stronger car than nissan .. sad but true..

But there has been rumours of this for a long time, and nothing has come of it. I believe Toyota has even flatly denied they will ever make another 'Supra'. This could just mean the similar concepts will be called something else, or they're simply nothing more than design ideas.

yeah they might not be calling it the supra, kind of like they won't be calling the new GTR a skyline

maybe they'll call it the RZ? given the last TT supra was a RZ supra wasnt it?

having owned a supra myself, i have a soft spot for them, and personally i think that looks absolutely amazing!

the rear lights on the supra i seriously do not like. everything else look wise looks awesome. i seriously dont even think it would need a bodykit but to imagin what a bodykit would look like on this would make it more interesting and possibly more appealing as well.

i like the prototype, looks hot, definately a good one, compared to the other i have seen of other vehicles.

it actually looks like a newer version of the old supra but modernised.

alot of new cars are looking way to crazy in design, a bit out there and they loose there sporty appeal and start looking like luxury cars not sports cars.

Its not hard to beat the 350Z - its underpowered and overweight.

That said, is the Supra even meant to be a Z competitor? I always thought that, as the flagship, it was meant to be a GT-R competitor. In my mind, its always been a step above. Maybe because the Z has always been second fiddle to the GT-R in Nissan's range, but the Supra is the range topper.

Maybe the LF-A will be the GT-R competitor, and the new Supra will be aimed at the Z.

    • Old Son, did you re-use the Holden ABS in the new shell or try a different module?
    • Yeah, nah. I had the actuator rod off it today. The arm will not move at all. Neither out, nor in. Yeah, you'd think so, but I've been thinking about that. Even when the actuator rod fell all the way off at the beginning of this saga, it would build more boost and faster in lower gears than it would in higher gears, and you'd think that that was the opposite of what should happen. But I strongly suspect that there is a thing with the gearing getting the revs to rise faster, that there must be some transient effect with the gas flow rate rising quickly, that you don't get with the more steady state case of the higher gears. Keep in mind - the gate is not shut in either of my weirdnesses. So things are not "normal". We normally think about a turbo spooling up (below the wastegate target) with the gate shut. I have all sorts of mental models running now where the gate is a little bit open, and having it stuck open allowing gas out while it should be going through the turbine has all sorts of weird effects (in these mental models). I'm thinking in the higher gears, the ex mani pressure builds to the point where enough gases spill out the wastegate to just prevent the pressure rising much more at all, or just creeping up, all the whole the revs are increasing and getting closer to the point where a gear shift becomes necessary.
    • Is it possibly wastegate actuator itself is sticking, or even the rod to flapper? Otherwise I reckon things are getting a bit rusty/worn   Also odd it won't boost in 3rd to 5th, but will in 1st, I'd expect the other way around with it slightly open as there's more time on your way to redline for it to spin up
    • Does anyone know ow what these two plugs are for and if they should be unplugged? Just put the dash back together and can't remember if these were plugged in before or unplugged! (Blue and white plugs) 🤦🏽‍♂️
    • Did some FASTing ...got the impression that the actual part# was a moot point ; seems all of these hardlines for coolant are discontinued/NLA... like, I take it you're after the hardline that bolts onto to the manifold...that's NLA according to amayama & nengun .... ...just to clear up some confusion, they typically mounted the AAC valve to the intake manifold somewhere near a coolant passage, so the body of the valve heats up & holds it open when engine's up to temp - no coolant flows through the valve, it's a mechanical, thermal connection.
