The way I see it is, Toyota should make things right for their customers and cover failed engines that show RTV in the oil. Toyota did NOT design the FA24D, they contributed their D4S system (same as...

Wouldn’t it also have to do with the boxer engine design? The way it’s sealed I mean. Subaru and Porsche are really the only two companies using the boxer layout.

The Toyota dealership I’ve been going to for many years usually has 200+ new vehicles at a time. I think now they have about 20. And most of those are listed as “in transit”. Very crazy times. Buying...

It’s crazy isn’t it?! I’ve seen one, a BRZ. And I live in an area with a good amount of first gen twins!
I also see very few MkV Supras. I’m worried about how difficult it’s going to be to get a GR...

For those saying you hear a (timing chain?) rattle, did you own a first gen twin? There was the valve spring recall on early gen 1 cars also.

The first gen cars made all sorts of noises. You...

There’s a very good chance the GR Corolla will be manual only. Toyota currently doesn’t make an automatic that would be suitable. I’m not sure if the ZF could work, or possibly the auto from the...

It took me a while to get used to all the sounds my FR-S made, the 1st gens didn’t try to hide anything. It’s good to hear they haven’t refined the 2nd gens too much. [emoji28][emoji16]

I noticed that with my FR-S, even though it has good visibility for such a small and flat car, the left side blind spot especially you have to be careful about. BSM would be very helpful.

Well it sort of is about sharing. Like Toyota adding the D4S injection system. With safety tech and software it’s probably a little different and more closely guarded. Subaru is a safety leader for...

I just wonder if that makes any real difference on such a low volume car. Would the average Toyota tech have worked on a FA20D? I have no idea myself but it’s worth considering IMO.
