[things-about-cars-in-posts]

OMG I'm such a dumbass I knew you did one on the GR Yaris before too, and I love her ALSO, but I actually meant the GR Supra 😳🫣 (slip of the tongue)

Gotcha.

Since I managed to take some two weeks to answer this (got distracted both by real life obligations and other posts that were meant to be very quick to make. Meant to.) y'all may have forgotten, but our dear friend of the blog had asked for opinions on the GR Yaris, hinting to its controversial status. Turns out the GR Supra is what that request, and thus that hint, was actually about - so let's talk about the car and the controversy that engulfs it.

In 1993, Toyota launched the fourth generation of its rear wheel drive sportscar (well, arguably a bit of a Grand Tourer, i.e. something more oriented to cruising than a sportscar) the Supra - which was born a quarter century earlier as a more upmarket, six cylinder version of the Celica, graduating from Celica Supra to its own dignified name with the third generation I talked about that one time I forgot to check what blog I was reblogging with.

But this time, things would be different. Most notably because the inline six the Mk4 Supra came out with was an absolute MONSTER.

Remember how I talked about the GT-R's RB26 engine being one of the greatest, most coveted production engines to ever come out of Japan? Well, the 2JZ-GTE is the other.

It was larger at 3 liters, no less powerful, and to reduce turbocharger lag it used two of them sequentially: first air goes in the smaller, more responsive turbo, then gradually some of it gets sent to the bigger turbo to make it start spinning, then when it gets going the two are finally used in conjunction. (Imagine the big turbo as a hung husband that takes a while to get it up and the small turbo as an eager stepson ready to take over until the hung one can join in for a spitroast. Or something. I don't watch porn with real people, but from what I gather the plots seem to resemble how sequential turbos work.) It even at one point got Variable Valve Timing, i.e. the ability to vary the time in which the valves open depending on engine speed, which allows to optimize tuning for performance and efficiency! (Cool thing to go over in detail if y'all want me to.) And also, the kind of things that engine is able to take make me wish I hadn't used up my porn analogy quota.

See, to chop off eons of nuance, an engine is just a big block of metal with a lot of bits attached, and the two main measures of an engine's potential are the slope of the line in the Bits Fiddled With / Power Output graph and how far up (It's up, right? The second axis you specify is the vertical one, right?) you can take it before the block becomes the weakest link - with another important point being when you need to start messing with internals, i.e. the components inside the engine, e.g. pistons (the things the boom pushes down), camshaft (the thing the pistons spin) and connecting rods (you can guess).

So for instance, just to make the point that an engine can be beloved without having much overall tuning potential, in one of Toyota's most beloved engines, the 4A-GE four cylinder illustrated above (yes, the one from that white and black car in all the eurobeat videos), some pin the block's limit as low as 250hp. The 2JZ, tho? It can take 800hp without even messing with the internals, and once you get your grubby hands on those you can keep pushing the line to some 2000hp. That is two Bugattis. That is 40 times my car. That is well above the power level where "tires that will at any point grip" and "tires that are in any way road legal" stop intersecting.

I am not in the slightest exaggerating when I say that this and the Skyline GT-R are widely regarded as the top of Japan's 20th century automotive production. The Messi & Ronaldo of the Japanese Domestic Market. It is absolutely no coincidence this was the hero car in The Fast And The Furious.

And then in 2002, as all things, its production ended, and given the abysmal sales and catastrophic recession, Toyota decided that would be that.

And then, years later, The Teasening began.

I want to stress, almost half of my conscious life (I choose to believe the stretch from birth to kindergarten is just run-up) the world was in some state of getting teased with talk of a new Supra. The trademark on the name was renewed in 2010. In 2014 they dropped the FT-1 concept, and of course that became speculation about what the production version would look like.

Because come the fuck on, it's not gonna look like that.

Or was it?

Only five entire years and much more teasing later would we officially get an answer, when after seventeen years, the Toyota GR Supra (and for those wondering what GR means, y'all should've clicked the Yaris link >:C) hit the streets.

You know what, good enough.

Good enough to earn itself a sea of words of praise, Jason Cammisa's "The most punch-above-its-weight sportscar ever made" just some among them.

It did have its share of problems at the start, like its power being 335hp and not 382, a lack of manual transmission, and the inability to spec it with a less powerful 4 cylinder engine - well, I don't know who considered that last one a problem, but Toyota's updates solved that one too.

The Supra has a much bigger problem than those though, one no little update can solve. That red car in the background.

See, the new Supra is actually a joint venture with BMW, who made a new model of its Z4 roadster out of the platform. And unlike with the other joint-venture sportscar Toyota sells, people are big mad about that. Why?

See, the interior is engulfed in BMW switchgear and the drivetrain is all BMW (the manual gearbox took until this year to come out because BMW did not have one for that engine so Toyota had to modify another BMW transmission to fit), giving people the impression that this was less of a joint venture and more of a BMW project that Toyota tacked its design on top of, which is a problem whether true or not.

See, a range-topping sportscar is supposed to represent what the brand is capable of - having it done by someone else (or so the criticism goes) is a bit like performing Hallelujah in playback.

Actually, a better musical analogy: You know "I'm back bitch" singles? When a humongous artist drops a new record with a humongous lead single about absolutely nothing but reaffirming they're the biggest fucking deal in the universe? Without Me, Bad, Gimme More, so on. Well, think of SexyBack - one of the most monumental phenomenons of its decade, most incontrovertibly proving Justin Timberlake sat atop the goddamn world. Now, imagine if, after all the years that went by between that record and the next, when he finally came out with Suit And Tie all the verses were Jay-Z. Going from a humongous statement about having the power to reach the top of the game and stay there to having to get absolutely carried by what in this logic is essentially a competitor. Basically, that's the critics' complaint: the supra went from 2JZ to too much Jay-Z.

And therein lies the other problem of the Supra: the Supra.

See, any time you evaluate something, you do so relative to its context - and when you give it a nameplate, you make that context include where else that nameplate has been. An undeserved name may not just be stupid, but even outright kill the car in some's eyes, see the case of the Dodge Dart, or get me to talk about the Ford Capri prototype recently spotted if you want to find out what I'm like when I lose my cool. (I'd liken this phenomenon to undeserved Grammies but I already used my music analogy quota too.) So the Toyota Supra does not just need to be good, it needs to deserve the name. And some argue it doesn't. But why? This thing is no less powerful, no slower, hell it's not even any bigger or heavier and we've gone over how rare that is these days! So is it the lack of backseats and a targa version? No, no one gives a crap about those. It's something deeper.

Sometimes, the problem with a revival is people base their expectation not on what the original was like in the context of its time but what it's like in the context of today (for example, I've heard people call the latest GT-R "too computerized, too assisted, far from the pure driving experience of its predecessors", when its predecessors had some of the most technologically advanced driving assists of their time and could only be called "pure" and "analog" by comparison with cars decades newer). But of course, that'll only be some people - so if what the original car looks like to modern eyes and what the original car represented at its time are two different enough concepts, any revival will receive some criticism for not being one of the two.

But for the Supra, this compounds with another problem: the original Supra (as in the previous generation, since no one gives a crap about the first three), to modern eyes, looks like a thousand-horsepower flame-spitting beast, because that's what all Supras have been turned into, and that's why you know of Supras in the first place (it sure isn't because people bought it!), and that, consciously or not, exacerbates the problem of misplaced expectations to a level akin to hearing an NBA player is about to have a brother and expecting the baby to be a 6'4" three-shooter.

But I wasn't asked about the controversies, I was asked about my take. And my take is: no realistic expectation of what a Supra would look like today was disappointed - at least not by where the car stands today. Well, unless the expectation involved backseats.

"But it was made by BMW" and so? This is a new Supra, and a good one - what does it matter how it got here? Especially when this is an upgrade over the Z4 in every way - looks way better, drives better, and now has a manual that the Z4 doesn't.

Okay, almost every way: the Supra's roof won't get out of the way. If only though, if only. Could you imagine a Toyota product that looks this good, sounds this good, goes this fast, and has a drop top? ...and maybe backseats?

Well, I can.

Yes, the badge and core concept may have some people consider it from midlife crisis mobile to old man's car. (though we know it's not a car bought by old men because if that was the case someone would be buying these). But just try to imagine sitting in this thing.

Take a couple of seconds to take in that picture and truly immerse yourself. You're in a Lexus LC500 Convertible, with a V8 at your right foot's command, its spectacular sound ready to battle the perfect sound system serenading you with your fanciest CD, because of course Lexuses still come with CD players.

Are you immersed? Okay: Someone just called your Lexus a midlife crisis car. See? You don't give a shit either, do ya.

Automatic only though. The pain. Oh, and it kind of costs as much as two Supras. But, you know, neither of those Supras will be convertibles!

At Waiting's End - 6 Safe Landing

Though his originator had commed Prowl when he had boarded the last shuttle, Prowl waited on the tarmac as it came into land. Camshaft was no in anyway an impulsive mech but he was one with a deep sense of duty. If in the last moment he spotted a straggle, an unknown survivor of the carnage, Prowl knew his originator would go after them, even if that meant ordering the shuttle to leave without him. There had been no contact but there may not be due to the continued threat of the Decepticons to the transports. It had taken five mega-cycles to evacuate the ten thousand plus survivors, largely due to the need to ward off not only ground but air attacks against the transports. To Prowl’s great relief, not a single transport had been lost and this was the last one. His spark had not stopped racing for joors.

“Don’t worry, Prowl,” Bluestreak said, giving his servo a squeeze as he stood beside him. “The transport will land soon.”

The mechling had served as a good distraction. He was traumatized, how could he not be, but he was still the sweetest young mech. His entire family had been murdered, procreators, grandprocreators, uncles, aunts and cousins. There was no next of kin to contact to take custody of him. Bluestreak’s family had farmed that simple plot of land for millennia and none in their history had ever seen reason to leave. Prowl had taken formal custody of him, alongside Jazz. He was comfortable with them, both of them, but when someone spooked him, he always ran to hide behind Prowl’s doorwings, as Praxians sparklings were coded to do. Autobots, as they learned of him, wanted to spoil the war orphan but as a whole, they scared him, but none more than the Seekerkin. For now, Prowl guarded Bluestreak from the well-intention-ed and noisy with equal measure. He had heard himself called broody, as though there was something wrong with how he guarded Bluestreak and Smokescreen. It did not matter at all to him what they thought. Though, it seemed to matter to Jazz. No one raised a glyph of criticism against Prowl when Jazz was in hearing, not after Jazz had made an example of the first few.

Prowl smiled as he turned his optics to the sky. The transport was just a speck among the clouds but with each nanoklik, it came closer and clearer into view. They were not the only ones waiting on the tarmac. The youngest, the oldest and the weakest had arrived on the first transport. Still, Fixit was there to do triage and a quick visual exam of this final transport. Autobots would remain in the ruins of Praxus for another quartex or so, if they could maintain control of the area, to continue searching for survivors. There would not be many, if any. It was incredible how complete the destruction of Praxus had been but Prime would keep searchers there until his spark told him it was time to lay Praxus to rest. Perhaps it would be the wisdom of the Primes, or simply reality setting in, Prowl was not prepared to debate the legitimacy of the Matrix at this point.

The pilot landed the transport perfectly smoothly. Prowl watched the ramp descended and stared without ventilating as Autobots guided the last of his grim and resolute compatriots off the vessel. Finally, finally, Prowl saw his originator at the same moment as Camshaft saw him. He broke from the Autobots’ gentle corral in a blink. They would not know how he had done it, how they had not even one of them raised an arm to stop him. He bypassed Fixit and his medical team and the administrators in place to direct these mechanisms to their new homes. Prowl clasped his servo around his originator’s elbow as Camshaft stopped in front of him and cupped Prowl’s helm with both servos as he brought their crests together. They did not speak. For both of them, losing Smokescreen or losing each other had been the fear that had followed them with every step. Finally, they could ventilate. Camshaft lowered his helm to brush his crest against Smokescreen’s tiny helm before he looked over to Bluestreak. He knelt.

“You’re Bluestreak?” Camshaft asked.

“Uh huh,” the mechling replied. “You’re Camshaft, Prowl’s ori. I’m very pleased to meet you.”

“You are a treasure,” Camshaft replied and he brushed his crest against Bluestreak’s. “You won’t find cause with us to forget it.”

“Do you wish to wait for Fixit to finish with the others before you see him?” Prowl asked. His originator scoffed and Prowl smiled over at Jazz who gave him a questioning look.

“I know when I need a medic,” Camshaft replied.

“So that’s somethin’ ya got in common,” Jazz said and Camshaft smiled.

“If anything,” he said. “I am worse than Prowl.”

There was not much space in Jazz’s habsuite but Camshaft but there was a sofa berth in the living room. Jazz tried, he tried hard to convince Camshaft as they made their way home, that he could take the sofa berth, originator and creation could share for now. Camshaft had refused, insisting the sofa berth would be perfectly fine for him and that Jazz should be close to Prowl and Smokescreen in case they needed him. Prowl did not tell Jazz it was a losing battle from the beginning, they needed to learn each other’s quirks and Prowl knew his originator had a few. He, as Prowl had known he would, preferred to leave the emergency housing to those who really needed it. Iacon was a large territory but finding homes for ten thousand was still a strain. Temporary accommodations were being provided by the Academy, permanent housing would take longer.

Prowl was in no hurry to chase his originator away. In the stellar-cycles they had spent sabotaging Nightstalker’s purge and hiding from his security forces, they had become that much closer than they had ever been and they had always been close, as close as an originator and creation could sanely be. At least Prowl knew that Jazz would understand this attachment; he was very close to his originator and twin. Their habsuite, as Jazz insisted he should think of it as theirs, would be extra crowded when Punch arrived in the coming mega-cycles. But Prowl absolutely did not begrudge Jazz’s originator his excitement. He was thrilled to know he had a grand creation and desperate to meet not only Smokescreen but also the foundling Bluestreak. Cramped as the catacombs had been, Prowl thought the crowd would be even a little comforting.

Porsche IMS Bearing Issues: How to Detect, Prevent, and Fix Problems

The Intermediate Shaft (IMS) bearing issue in Porsche models, particularly in the 996 and 997 generations of the Porsche 911, as well as the Porsche Boxster and Cayman, is a well-known problem that can have devastating consequences for the engine. Understanding the function of the IMS bearing, how to detect potential issues early, and the best ways to prevent or repair the problem is crucial for maintaining the health and longevity of your Porsche engine.

What is the IMS Bearing and Why is it Important?

The IMS (Intermediate Shaft) bearing is a component of the engine that supports the intermediate shaft, which drives the camshafts and ensures the proper timing of the engine’s valves. In certain Porsche models, particularly those with M96 and M97 engines, the IMS bearing has shown a tendency to fail prematurely, often due to poor lubrication. When the IMS bearing fails, it can lead to catastrophic engine damage, requiring a complete engine rebuild or replacement.

Common Causes of IMS Bearing Failure

Understanding the reasons behind IMS bearing failure can help you take proactive steps to avoid it. Here are the primary causes:

    Insufficient Lubrication: Many IMS bearings are sealed and rely on lifetime lubrication that can degrade over time, leading to metal-on-metal contact and wear.

    Bearing Design Flaws: Early Porsche engines used a single-row bearing in certain models, which has been found to be more prone to failure compared to the later dual-row bearings.

    Aging and Wear: As the bearing ages, it can begin to deteriorate due to regular engine operation, leading to the risk of failure over time.

Symptoms of IMS Bearing Problems

Detecting IMS bearing issues early can potentially save you from costly repairs. Be alert to these common warning signs:

1. Metal Shavings in the Oil

One of the earliest and most common indicators of IMS bearing failure is the presence of metal shavings in the engine oil. Regular oil changes and the use of magnetic drain plugs can help capture these metal particles, giving you an early warning of potential problems.

2. Unusual Engine Noise

If you hear grinding, rattling, or knocking noises from the rear of the engine, it could indicate a failing IMS bearing. These sounds are due to the internal components moving out of sync due to bearing wear.

3. Oil Leaks

A failing IMS bearing may lead to oil leaks around the rear of the engine. While oil leaks can have various causes, it’s essential to investigate any leaks in Porsche models prone to IMS bearing issues.

4. Check Engine Light

In some cases, a failing IMS bearing might cause the engine's timing to go off, leading to a check engine light. If the light comes on and there are no other obvious reasons, it’s worth having the IMS bearing checked.

Preventive Measures to Avoid IMS Bearing Failure

While IMS bearing failure cannot be entirely avoided, there are steps Porsche owners can take to minimize the risk:

1. Regular Oil Changes

Frequent oil changes help ensure that your engine stays well-lubricated and reduce the likelihood of metal particles building up. This is especially important for models with sealed IMS bearings, which rely on oil around the bearing housing to prevent excessive wear.

2. Upgrading the IMS Bearing

One of the most effective preventative measures is to upgrade the IMS bearing with a more durable replacement. Many aftermarket solutions, such as ceramic bearings or oil-fed bearings, are designed to handle higher stress and provide better lubrication than the original parts.

3. Magnetic Drain Plug Installation

Installing a magnetic drain plug during your oil change can help capture any metal particles in the oil. This provides an early detection method, as the metal debris collected on the plug can indicate bearing wear.

4. Regular Inspections

Routine inspections by a certified Porsche technician can help identify early signs of IMS bearing wear. They can inspect the oil for metal particles, check for oil leaks, and evaluate any unusual engine noises.

Repair Solutions for IMS Bearing Failure

If your IMS bearing shows signs of failure, prompt action is essential to avoid severe engine damage. Here are the primary repair solutions:

1. IMS Retrofit Kit

A popular solution for resolving IMS issues is the installation of an IMS retrofit kit. These kits typically include a redesigned bearing with better durability and lubrication, allowing for a more reliable performance compared to the original part. Aftermarket kits are available from several reputable suppliers and offer various options, such as ceramic bearings or oil-fed systems.

2. Oil-Fed IMS Bearing Conversion

Another advanced solution involves converting the sealed bearing system into an oil-fed system. This modification allows engine oil to flow directly into the bearing, providing continuous lubrication. Oil-fed systems are generally more resistant to wear and have a longer lifespan.

3. Full Engine Rebuild

In cases where IMS bearing failure has already caused significant engine damage, a full engine rebuild may be required. This option is costly but ensures that any damage from bearing debris or misaligned engine components is addressed, restoring the engine to peak performance.

Final Thoughts

Porsche IMS bearing issues are a serious concern for owners of affected models, but with proactive care and the right preventive measures, you can significantly reduce the risk. Regular maintenance, monitoring for signs of wear, and upgrading the bearing if necessary are essential steps to ensure the longevity of your Porsche engine. Consulting with a certified Porsche technician and staying on top of maintenance will help keep your vehicle performing at its best, allowing you to enjoy the legendary driving experience Porsche is known for.

The camshaft controls the engine valves’ opening and shutting; given that the MbenzGram professionals put it, the component is usually regarded the “brain of your engine.” A camshaft works by changing rotational motion into linear or reciprocating movement then transfers this motion, generated through the cams, by various parts of the valve educate to regulate the operations from the ingestion and exhaust valves.

Mounted within the ‘top end’ of the engine (proper above the piston within the cylinder head), the camshaft works the poppet valves observed inside the pumps, the inner combustion engines, along with other relevant mechanisms. As soon as the motor begins operating, the cams around the camshaft turn or rotate at 50 % the velocity on the crankshaft. For the duration of each and every cylinder’s power/exhaust and intake/compression strokes, cam lobes to the camshaft work to correctly open and close the intake/exhaust valves.

The amount of gasoline that passes into each cylinder all through intake is decided because of the cam ‘lift’ (the situation of the camshaft relative to your piston, measured in many an inch) and cam ‘duration’ (some time a valve stays open up, expressed in levels of cam rotation). In line with gurus at MbenzGram, elevate and length of your camshaft with each other enjoy a significant part in engine overall performance and ability output qualities which include idle high quality, torque, horsepower, equilibrium, fuel economic system, oil intake, emissions, and so on.

How Is The Reconditioning Process Carried Out For Range Rover Engines?

Reconditioning Range Rover engines is a meticulous process that ensures these high-performance vehicles maintain their reliability and longevity. This procedure is essential for car enthusiasts and everyday users who want to extend the life of their Range Rover without the expense of a brand-new engine. Reconditioning not only restores an engine's functionality but also enhances its performance, making it a cost-effective and environmentally friendly alternative to replacement. We will delve into the detailed steps of the reconditioning process, highlighting each critical stage to provide a thorough understanding of what it entails.

Initial Assessment and Diagnosis

The first step in reconditioning Range Rover engines is the initial assessment and diagnosis. This phase involves a thorough inspection of the engine to identify any issues or wear and tear. Experienced mechanics use advanced diagnostic tools to scan the engine for faults and assess its overall condition. Key areas of focus include the cylinder heads, crankshaft, camshaft, and pistons. A detailed report is generated, outlining the necessary repairs and replacements. This diagnostic step is crucial as it sets the foundation for the entire reconditioning process, ensuring that all issues are identified and addressed.

Disassembly of the Engine

Once the initial assessment is complete, the next step is the disassembly of the engine. This process involves carefully taking apart the engine, piece by piece. Every component, from the smallest bolt to the largest part, is meticulously removed and inspected. This step is labor-intensive and requires precision to avoid damaging any parts. The disassembly allows mechanics to clean each component thoroughly and check for any signs of wear, cracks, or other damage. By dismantling the engine completely, technicians can ensure that every part is evaluated for its condition and suitability for reuse.

Cleaning and Inspection of Components

After disassembly, the individual components undergo a rigorous cleaning process. Specialized cleaning solutions and equipment are used to remove oil, grime, and carbon deposits from each part. Ultrasonic cleaning machines may be employed for intricate components to ensure every nook and cranny is spotless. Following the cleaning, a detailed inspection is carried out. Components are measured for wear and compared against factory specifications to determine if they meet the required standards. Any parts that do not meet these standards are either repaired or replaced. This step ensures that only the best quality parts are used in the reconditioning process.

Repair and Replacement of Worn Parts

With the components cleaned and inspected, the next stage involves the repair and replacement of worn or damaged parts. Skilled technicians use precision tools and machinery to restore parts to their original specifications. This may include machining the cylinder heads, grinding the crankshaft, and replacing piston rings and bearings. In cases where parts are beyond repair, new OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) parts are sourced and installed. This ensures that the reconditioned range rover engine meets or exceeds the performance standards of a new engine. The repair and replacement process is critical for achieving optimal engine performance and reliability.

Reassembly of the Engine

The reassembly of the engine is a meticulous process that requires expert knowledge and precision. Each component is carefully reinstalled in the correct sequence, ensuring all parts fit together perfectly. Lubricants and sealants are applied where necessary to ensure smooth operation and prevent leaks. Torque specifications are followed rigorously to ensure that bolts and fasteners are tightened correctly. The reassembly process is like putting together a complex puzzle, where every piece must be placed accurately to ensure the engine functions correctly. This stage is vital for the overall reliability and performance of the reconditioned engine.

Testing and Calibration

Once the engine is reassembled, it undergoes a series of tests and calibrations to ensure it performs optimally. Dyno testing is commonly used to simulate real-world driving conditions and measure the engine's performance. This includes checking for power output, torque, and fuel efficiency. Any deviations from expected performance are addressed by making necessary adjustments. Additionally, computerized diagnostic tools are used to fine-tune the engine's electronic systems, ensuring everything from fuel injection to ignition timing is perfectly calibrated. This thorough testing phase ensures that the reconditioned engine is ready for reliable use.

Quality Control and Certification

Quality control is a critical aspect of the reconditioning process. After testing and calibration, the engine undergoes a final inspection to ensure it meets all required standards. This includes checking for any leaks, abnormal noises, or other issues that could affect performance. Once the engine passes this rigorous quality control process, it is certified as reconditioned. Certification provides assurance to the customer that the engine has been restored to the highest standards of quality and reliability. This step is essential for building trust and confidence in the reconditioned engine.

Installation and Final Checks

The final step in the reconditioning process is the installation of the reconditioned engine into the vehicle. This involves carefully fitting the engine back into the Range Rover and connecting all necessary components, such as the transmission, exhaust system, and electrical systems. Once installed, the engine is subjected to a series of final checks to ensure everything is functioning correctly. This includes checking for any leaks, verifying the correct operation of all systems, and conducting a test drive. The final checks ensure that the reconditioned engine operates smoothly and reliably, ready to provide many more years of service.

Conclusion

Reconditioning a Range Rover Engines is a comprehensive and detailed process that restores the engine to its optimal performance. From the initial assessment and disassembly to the final installation and checks, each step is meticulously carried out to ensure the highest standards of quality and reliability. This process not only extends the life of the engine but also enhances its performance, making it a cost-effective and sustainable alternative to engine replacement. For Range Rover owners, understanding the reconditioning process provides peace of mind, knowing that their vehicle's heart is restored to its best possible condition. Read the full article
