You also need to remember that this forum and platform has had above average aftermarket and vendor support. A flood of new parts and R&D, trial and error. Just look at the 30+ odd FI kits made for our cars in the first 6 years! That is huge!



The Gen1 is at the end of it's life span. New investments and developments in the platform are mostly gone with a large chunk of the companies even turning over to the shiny new Supra.

With next to nothing being released on the 2nd generation of the car (if covid didn't kill it) and nothing relatively new being done with the chassis it will be slower than it's been.

While I miss the tons of new things to read I definitely don't miss the hundreds of post on crickets and ethanol-free fixes each week.


I do love seeing some of the earlier adopters of the platform return to it after years out off the forums. It really just reinforces what we love about these cars.
