In many large companies you must leave and go elsewhere to gain the experience needed to be promoted and then come back, and the loyal ones that stayed were left behind.

That too, but they don't like that 2L ver get almost same kinda swag as 3L ver.

here are few comments

TBH it’s why I don’t want a 2.0 stateside as it looks identical for all intents and purposes.

Lol and all I want is a higher hp version with a manual... and they go and release the 4cyl, and still has an auto... also making it look like launch edition is a shit move imo
& so on, but this made me lol
Quote:
why is a 2.0 inline 4 supra even created? wouldnt a N/A 3.0 inline 6 make more sense like the older supra?
I guess, he/she didn't know Supra was part of Celica, which had 4 banger... but I guess, that's too old for some young ppl to remember and only remember Supra MkIV w NA & Turbo ver. This is why I told Tada-san that, he should of called 4 cylinder ver Celica and 6 cylinder ver Supra.

Too many people the only Supra they think existed were the last few top trim high HP ones. People will never believe that it started life a slightly upgraded Celica.
And yet again with the whole "why won't they just use 30 year old engines in these things"?

Haha it was several months back, I read a comment about how Subaru still using EJ engine on their STI, so don't see why 2JZ can't be used in Supra. When I read that, I couldn't stop laughing so hard. Love EJ engine... but that ancient engine need to die and let FA take over, which happening soon.

Wow. That is hilarious. Just shows you who owns the car as a status symbol rather then wanting it for what it is. They do realize the badge says "Toyota" right?

I live in CT actually which is probably second. My Fiancée's house that I live in (we rent my house out which is even smaller) is only on .3 acres... yet I have a giant detached 2 car garage that fits my 19ft long 74 Lincoln with room spare and a driveway that can hold 13 cars because Murica haha. I will probably buy like 100 acres in the country just to have it someday though. I know Ichi doesn't live in Japan anymore but I like to break stones. I'm sure Japan has plenty of country too.

Well, not sure that's the purpose, its more a nightlight. I suppose it could have a battery backup for when the power is out.

Don't you get glow worms in the boonies? Just grab a bunch, stick them on a leash and bingo! You've got sustainable emergency lighting system.

This summer, I need new tires (summer or AS). What's good bang for buck. Cuz I literally using only in summer & a bit of fall, so don't need to worry bout cold weather like snow.

ATM have GT Radial Champiro UHP and it lasted me well. Just they don't have it anymore... or just don't sell it locally. Don't need $900 tires, maybe <$700 would be ideal.

What size are you running? Some are less expensive in certain sizes...
