Daily Driver MK5 Supra Gets New Stuff! Magnetic Paddles? Awwww Yeah!

[@Calabyr]

I love the fact that you drive it every day. I'm the same exact way with my car, continuously modify it , and daily drive it. That's a big reason I enjoy your channel so much. It's nice to see other people who have the same mindset because it seems to be pretty rare, at least in my experience.

[@chaumander9378]

Agree. He enjoys his car to the fullest instead of babying it.

[@VinceChristmastree]

Thanks so much! Yeah even from my personal experience, people always get surprised when I tell them I daily drive my car. I'm like...I spent all this money on it, why not drive it? So of course with the channel, I'll do my best to share my experiences to help out those who are looking to do the same!

[@unclerico6558]

Yup same mindset, seems like Toyota really pushed bmw for reliability on this engine

[@reggieh6038]

Saw your car at tx2k parked in the pits. Perfect street setup for the supra.

[@VinceChristmastree]

Thanks so much! I plan on being there for all future TX2Ks!

[@calrizzyy]

Keep on pushing man, still sitting at 91k since the last time. Been down due to surgery so. Haven’t been able to drive mine as much.

[@VinceChristmastree]

Working on trying to catch up! Hope your recovery is quick man.

[@B7raniuk]

@@calrizzyy how reliable are they at that mileage? You think buying one at 47,000 miles for a good deal worth it? How long do you think they can last for if you keep up with maintenance?

[@gn0256726720021]

Wouldn't that suck hot air in without a box?

[@VinceChristmastree]

The OEM snorkel tube that directs cold air is next to the turbo so not really.

[@gn0256726720021]

@VinceChristmastree tks bro, your mods are crazy

[@clplusp8762]

VC’s Supra videos make me wanna go all out on mine. Ive been happy since Stg 2’ing my ‘22 Supra. I tried E30 blend, power gain was noticeable mostly on the mid/top end so I’ve stuck with 93 pump. I really should swap my steering wheel and get a wider wheel/tire setup. My third child is due in a month so I’ve “tried” to curb whim-driven purchases though

[@VinceChristmastree]

Go for it if life permits. Congrats on the 3rd one, that's exciting! Even just simple upgrades like steering wheel and paddles will make a difference in just the driving experience. Regardless, it can wait. Need those funds for more diapers lol

[@elmeralvarez1439]

Hey my man, can you hmu about that turbo kit? I have a 2024 Supra. Don’t know how the tuning would go with that locked ECU as well.

[@VinceChristmastree]

Yo, so the turbo kit won't work for 2021+ cars. It's only compatible for 2020s because of the 2 port design. To run it, you'll need a 6 port turbo/turbo kit and have your ECU unlocked by Femto.

[@gabbycummings1]

You need affiliate links too

[@VinceChristmastree]

They're affiliate links already :)

[@saivyia]

Ive seen the steering go as low as 280 cad which is like 220 usd or something

[@VinceChristmastree]

Yeah I've seen those too, for like a couple of days. Such a steal though compared to the $500+ other "brands" are selling the same exact thing for.

[@gabbycummings1]

I’ve been waiting for this one!!

[@VinceChristmastree]

Yesssssss, you need to check it out next time I see you!

[@trillkareem6675]

killing it

[@VinceChristmastree]

Thanks for watching!

[@AminJorge]

Thank you for the great content 💪🏽. The links for the steering wheel and paddle shifter are same. Can you add the link for the paddle shifters again

[@VinceChristmastree]

Thanks for watching! Shoot, thanks for checking on that. I fixed the links!

[@kojpim271]

Did any of your paddles have any play? Got the same ones but my left one has a bit of play

[@VinceChristmastree]

Very little for me. Doesn’t bother me that much though, but yeah might annoy some others.

[@kojpim271]

@@VinceChristmastree Ok thanks, thought I was the only one. After putting it on, I barely notice the play

[@Mazzick_]

First haha! nah but for real, keep the good content up. I’ve been watching your videos for a bit now and it’s been very entertaining and helpful. So thanks!

[@VinceChristmastree]

Thanks for continuing to watch the videos! Appreciate you taking the time to comment too :)

[@jh276]

beautiful car! Can't believe the very limited color choices for 2024! what should i do if i want a silver or yellow? no, don't like tomato color 45th.

[@VinceChristmastree]

Thanks so much! Oh man, you would have to go the used route probably.

[@CarsOverPeople]

Sorry if I’ve missed this but what charge pipe you got? And do you think it’s the best one?

[@VinceChristmastree]

Mine came with the top mount kit. I ran the Forge Chargepipe when I had a stock location turbo though. Pretty good quality.

[@Vicsupa]

I love your build! Just got my first A90 supra a few weeks ago in that silver. Where did you get your wing from?

[@VinceChristmastree]

Nice and congrats! It's the Seibon TD Style wing.

[@kwasbass6790]

Is there a kit to improve the timing life of the B58?

[@VinceChristmastree]

Not sure what you mean by timing life? If you're referring to the reliability of the B58, it's a pretty reliable motor, stock or modded.

[@kwasbass6790]

@@VinceChristmastree I meant the chain timing

[@VinceChristmastree]

I haven't heard anyone run into any issues with the chain so far. I believe the chain is good for 100k miles. There's only a handful of Gen 2 B58s that are that high in mileage. I would recommend asking the Facebook groups to get some feedback from those guys.

[@kwasbass6790]

@@VinceChristmastree Thank You

[@fallenstatus]

have you ever driven a c7 z06? if so, how would you compare it to your car?

[@VinceChristmastree]

I have! Got the chance to drive an A8 and MT7 version a while back. The Supra feels more compact inside, smaller than the Corvette. The C7 is more raw in my opinion because of the sounds and just general rowdiness of the car, but still makes for a nice GT car. Supra is more compact outside too and I would say the steering is better (for my personal preference). It just responds better to the inputs that I give the car. Tech and interior quality of the Supra is also much better than the C7. GM isn't known for their tech and interior quality and that rings true for the C7. Either way, I really enjoyed the C7Z and was cross shopping it with the Supra and I went with the Supra since there's so many C7s out there. I also fit better with the Supra community.

[@cloudyskyforever2553]

Beautiful car, Vince! May I ask if you have had issue with the car burning oil so you would have to add a quart every once in a while?

[@VinceChristmastree]

Thank you! Nope, no issues with burning oil. I know that was an issue mainly with the 2021s with a very few 2020s.

[@cloudyskyforever2553]

Thank you, Vince!@@VinceChristmastree

[@VinceChristmastree]

You're welcome!

[@speedwobble5383]

Wheel looks great and for the money that seems like a bargain but pretty sure these cheap wheels aren't built with OEM cores.

[@VinceChristmastree]

Thanks! Yeah most likely not, but it does the job!

[@dennispazsanchez7383]

please do not sell your car!!! Never!!

[@VinceChristmastree]

That's the plan!

[@elbigoariel]

Is that your daily ?

[@VinceChristmastree]

Yup, sure is.
