It's just another example of an antiquated DMV rule and it so happens to generate revenue for the state and small business automotive repair shops. I think everyone can agree that nobody likes dealing with the DMV no matter what part of the country were from. I'm just happy I got it to pass...

You may be the first person to mention Rx-7 and Blackwing in the same sentence. My Rx-7 and S2k were pretty engaging to drive but I don't look back with rose colored glasses. The S2K and FC's shift linkage were excellent and on par/or better then the Blackwing in some cases. The EPS steering...

In Santa Paula, trying to get my car registered. I passed smog today with 410 miles on the clock

They are ALOT closer in color than the renderings and from other photos I’ve seen. I am curious to see them next to each other in daylight.

If you loved your 4Runner so much, you could literally buy 2 of them for the price you’d pay in Taxes for a Cybertruck and the amount of money you’ll lose when trying to sell your blackwing. Then there’s depreciation on a Tesla…

I don’t use 2nd until full trans operating temp, I wouldn’t recommend it especially if you already have symptoms. I’d leave rev match on or do it yourself The tremec has an easier time at low speed cold temps going from 1st to 3rd or in some cases 4th but that could be a stretch depending on...

Sorry your having these issues, you've had a rough go with your blackwings. I'm curious to see what a tuner would see at WOT. Hopefully this issue will be solved soon, a new engine is way worse than a trans swap🫨

Welcome to the forum!

Speaking of brakes, I wonder how well the ct5BW would do with Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 R Connects?

I found it interesting that Matt Farah mentioned how the programming of the clutch was designed so that you need not touch the throttle when crawling through traffic. This feature prolongs the life of the clutch. This practice was mentioned at spring mountain during the first day when...

the longer those decals sit on the paint, the more it will fade around it and if you remove them they'll cast a shadow in that area. I personally think the stickers are rad and I'd keep them on there. But I would at a minimum ceramic coat the car in a matte ceramic product for UV protection.

Don't you have any photos when the car was first new to compare? Before and after

Coincidencentally, my first car did that too but I didn't know what it was ( sound of marbles is the best way I described it). Im still in break on period now so hopefully I'll be able to report back in a month or so. Octane boosters may only raise it 8 points (.8 octane) and some such as...

I am in the process of installing the spoiler and found this to be super helpful. To the OP and @Likuid ...strong writeup.

Thanks! I just emailed them a few days ago asking when they’d be in stock. I ordered the clear with amber too, that’s the best look on white.

When I moved to SoCal I thought maybe the laws were different than Chicago, not really. The far left lane is for everyone who drives -5mph of the speed limit or +40 mph over. The far right lane is reserved for merging traffic and speeders who want to pass NPCs in the far left lane. The middle...

Negative, I am a meat popsicle.

Home Depot, the first errand run

My last Blackwing I had xpel ultimate fusion ppf done over the whole car, on the rockers the tiny little fins in the front bumper, rockers, rear diffuser, and even the rear taillights with ceramic over the window trim all for $5500 a year ago. The guy did a fantastic job, but unfortunately he...
