mkirby Posted December 12, 2004 Share Posted December 12, 2004 Been having a few teething problems with my new supra the main one being it had a hard time getting any sort of traction on the road and i mean any this thing would spin the rears in all gears?? i put this down to having stupid power but more of a concern the rear was really twitchy but never having a supra before i had nothing to compare it to!! but Had a mess around with the coilovers this morning and to my shock the rears were out by a massive 25mm i was slightly shocked because to look at it it didnt look that bad but the tape measure doesnt lie. So after adjusting the coilovers bit by bit i have it about 5 mm out before i had to stop but what a difference its a different car you actually feel you can push the "go faster" pedal so this is the first time i have been able to get the power down and feel safe about it and the car really handles well now infact on the test drive up a new road near me so its nice and flat and smooth i even had a little race with a saph cossie well he shot up behind me so i booted it now bear in mind its only in low boost so 7 or 8 psi and just left his as if he was stationary pulled up about a mile or so after in a layby so he pulls up behind me and just says wow he couldnt keep up no chance and he's running 350 bhp? so even though i dont usually race about its nice to hear sometimes So very happy chappie car feels fab but just goes to show that even though the car came from a performance car jap specialist you have to be so careful!!
