Man, watching you tear that new Supra apart was like watching a snuff film. I can’t wait to see what this car can do with less weight, more power, and stiffer suspension. This channel has the best automotive content on UA-cam.

Jackie, listen, there are a serious problem with the servomotor from the steering wheel, just two cases by now, Toyota /BMW will say that your modification avoid the warranty.
@@edwinyurigattorno I hope Toyota looks at this and notices. Knowing they are the brand that wants that"safety"image I can already see them hunting for a way to fix this problem asap without it getting out of control.
Awesome stuff!! Can't wait to see the difference especially once you get the seats out. Idk if anyone else mentioned this, but AdamLZ got 550hp out of his car with a new turbo and downpipe with Meth. But I know you said you want to develop your own parts and stage kits, so making a catless downpipe and maybe even tuning on better gas you should see a solid 440hp with just bolt ons. Can't wait to see which route you go with.
There’s a lot more to the car than just downpipe and turbos. 550 whp is great and I bet it pulls but on track that puts a lot of stress on the cooling system to keep up. Mindlessly chasing HP should not be the goal of a track car, but rather perfecting the overall balance between grip, weight, suspension, and power and more
@@JackieDing86 totally agree on that. Just sending some info your way since you were saying it lacking top end power overall. I feel like 400 to 440 like stock with bolt ons would be more than enough for a track car. I'm more interested in which direction you'd go either way. Hence why you're the only Supra I really follow lol
Yo Jackie you need to try out all the fake vents and see whether you can remove them or not. Check the hood vents, Stradman video seems like it removeable!!!
Got mine on Monday. I'm going the opposite way. I have a 96 Celica GT4 which I mod. The Supra will stay stock as a Launch Edition classic. For road use the car is already fast enough.
@@LilPistacho I think I can do that without voiding the warranty so Ill probably get it done. However, just put a decat pipe on my Celica so it's nice to have a quiet car!
Same thing i was thinking, any weight saving is worth it but honestly thats a big trade off to have literally remove EVERY trim and stereo etc for just 30kgs
Try removing them fake vents. Cut them out with a Dremmel tool if they won't pop out. But I would remove the whole front nose and remove vent covers. You are tracking it, and can overheat. I could cut them hood vents out, cut, weld, paint or whatever to make them function. You got a good welder who made your exhaust. Them fake vents got to go. The ones in the front nose and rear bumper cover look like the easiest to remove.
Does it worth it for 31 kg ? Maybe yes maybe no but this proves how clever engineering affects the overal weight. Personally I wouldnt remove all the panels as without them it doesnt look nice. No matter what enjoy your car mate.
I was expecting a bit more than 70 but it's not so bad for such minor things, more to come. These seats are heavy as fuck! Would it be allowed to cut the trunk tub and bumper cut or they would see it it as a flat floor?!
If you are going full weight reduction, take the AC out, windscreen washer bottles etc, All carpet etc, sound deadening (dry ice treatment) etc lt's a shame to do it to a brand new car though.
From what I heard, new BMW’s are notoriously bitchy about having their batteries disconnected (have to go to dealership to reset afterwards etc) so as much as I want to, probably not...
That sucks. new cars have to much technology now a days. I tried to reset my ECU at gridlife atl by disc the battery & the dash just turned into a Christmas tree. Damn German cars ha
I'm not sure if a 70lb weight saving is enough to tear the car up like that. Swapping out the two seats for a set of Sparco lightweight seats and maybe a lithium battery should do. I think if you take too much weight off the back you might affect the 50/50 weight distribution and hence the balance of the car. Lol, what the heck do I know.
Doing these because they’re mostly “free” upgrades. You don’t have to pay a cent to drop about 50 lbs off the car. Also, aftermarket seat bases are not available for the car currently
Shady Shinichi That comparison doesn’t work. It doesn’t make sense even if the Supra was a trash sports car (and judging by the reviews, only a blind hater who never drove it would think it’s bad). This isn’t cobbling random BMW and Toyota parts together into a Frankenstein, like Toyota did with their Lexus RC’s overweight platform. If anything, it’s like two bakers working together to discover the best strawberry cake recipe possible, and later go to make their own versions, sharing one of the baker’s ingredients (while the other shares the cost).

A new car loses value no matter what. 95% of cars are liabilities and not investments. He bought his Supra for track purposes, I'm pretty sure maintaining its value wasnt even on the priority list. When you buy your own 55k Supra you can use it as a commuter for 50k miles. After 4 years of rarely using that Supra what it's meant for, I want you to look at its monetary value and you will most likely be at like a 25k dollar loss. So ask yourself who gained more value from the car you or Jackie?
@@JackieDing86 that's where I ordered my front arms for my s550 mustang. Paid 1850$ plus another 300$ to have my knuckles modified just to find out you can get everything from another source for 1550$ then I emailed them about an issue I had or a question I dont remember but never got a reply.

Toyota: this car is designed to be modified

Too true
Make sure to add some cover in the rear to prevent parachuting, the OEM muffler helped prevent this
Yup that’s next
bro from a fellow supra owner to another - i love your car and what you do! super sick!!
Taking out all this interior? Im assuming youre installing a roll bar? Im also assuming street mod classing at Gridlife. Youre only permitted to remove the rear interior IF a roll bar is installed. Im excited to see a roll bar installed in a new supra!
Not all the interior. I only took out the trunk panels which is free in the Gridlife rulebook. Roll bar, I’m still considering
Jackie Ding funny, i dont see that anywhere.
That's some nice weight savings for free.

In BMW the muffler is a part of the rear aero. You should consider putting a flat bottom to mitigate the bumper acting like a parachute.
We know, and are making something to cover up the hole left by the muffler. Just not finished yet
@@JackieDing86 Team up with Verus engineering! They make legit aero pieces. They already have been messing around with a Supra.
I like where you’re going with the weight reduction
New fav car channel.

@@faizalmohd9536 Also planned yes
Yo Jackie you need to try out all the fake vents and see whether you can remove them or not. Check the hood vents, Stradman video seems like it removeable!!!
No
The weight you take from the rear you must take from the front to keep it's close to perfect balance
Yes but what in the front of the car is easy to take out...?
@@JackieDing86 Washer fluid bottle, intake baffles, can't think of much else
Air-con! Me and Jackie joke 😉. Going from two heavy, to one race battery is surely something to consider those things must weigh a tonne
Jackie Ding nothing, just add rear aero 😆
@@JackieDing86 do what BMW does and relocate the battery to the rear. Oil pan metal cover. Any BMW Should have a relocation kit used is cheaper
Anyone have an ID on song at 1:21?
Remove wipers and washer fluid too. Nice easy weight savings though, 75 pounds is a good chunk.
just curious why cut the exhaust instead of replacing the whole piping including the downpipe?
Cost-effectiveness, also a downpipe would require a full tune. That's coming soon
@@JackieDing86 i see. awesome!
I want that axle back, too bad it has a very long build time 😟

Love me some free weight removal 👍
I love this channel .
Glad that you do :)
did u put the passenger seat back in?
Yup we had to, otherwise the car will not be class legal for Time Attack
@@JackieDing86 Does it have to factory seats? I had an idea that might've helped if you guys aren't already packed and ready to roll out.
Leaving today, won’t be ready!
That single exit exhaust though!
It’s dual exit actually. But yes we are hoping to do a single exit in the future
@@JackieDing86 oh damn haha, must've missed that. Ya bro looks great! Just subbed
I heard of issues with removing the mufflers cuz of the valve
We checked before removing the muffler, taking the valve plug off did not result in anything at all
How much weight did you save from wheels? also, where else can you save unsprung mass? love the channel keep it up
Unsprung mass will have to mostly come from the brakes which we plan on upgrading later...
Jackie: I would like the 2020 supra please
Toyota: would you like warranty
Jackie: 😈 NOPE!!!!!!
Wouldn’t dropping all that rear weight affect the 50/50 balance?
Probably, but 75 lbs lighter is 75 lbs lighter
They'll account for it in the end when they do new springs/dampeners.
Jackie Ding absolutely. If u add driver weight now u broke even.
More tailhappy yay
Keep the videos coming!
75 pounds? that's it?
oh boi I feel the race mods coming...
do you plan to use / modify the fake vents ?
No the fake vents are fake and making them real doesn’t actually give much real benefits. I’ll make a video on this this week...
@@JackieDing86 nice thanks for the answer
I can't wait to see your progress on this car !
"This is where the BMW stuff starts---- torx. "
hahah
😭😭😭😭can’t bear to see all those interior panels coming out
I love it, sports car don't need interior panels
Put in the 11lb lithium battery in place of the factory 64lb battery. Factory seats weigh 50 a piece. Steering wheel, cf hood, lighter wheels, etc
You basically described everything we did a few weeks ago, go check out that video on the channel
i have a corvette i lost 100 LB by drain the washer fluid and filling only half tank of gasoline

Is it a lot of weight reduction ?
We saved about 75 lbs / 34 kg. Decent chunk, but got a lot more coming.
@@JackieDing86 Nice...about half a passenger. I hate people riding in my cars because I can feel the difference in performance so much lol.
If you are going full weight reduction, take the AC out, windscreen washer bottles etc, All carpet etc, sound deadening (dry ice treatment) etc lt's a shame to do it to a brand new car though.
One step at a time!
Yeah for sure, this car goes for over $110k here in Australia. It would be hard to rip it up hahah. Do the S2K vs A90 battle soon though haha
So you took out basically your weight from the car.
Accurate
@@JackieDing86 Only step now is to clone yourself and stick him in the trunk, for better weight distribution.
70lbs doesn't seem worth shaving, but it wouldn't be right on a track with the interior. Simplifying is important.
You are funny
that's some cowboy style decat!
Im glad youy got rid of the subs. they look pretty tacky. Also i wonder if you can goto a single better battery?
From what I heard, new BMW’s are notoriously bitchy about having their batteries disconnected (have to go to dealership to reset afterwards etc) so as much as I want to, probably not...
That sucks. new cars have to much technology now a days. I tried to reset my ECU at gridlife atl by disc the battery & the dash just turned into a Christmas tree. Damn German cars ha
why not make friends with a local BMW shop/dealer and swap the battery then reset it?
Not a bad idea, will look into it
I have subscriber for the Supra content

what about the big heavy batterie ?
New BMW’s don’t like being disconnected from battery, needs a reset from dealership afterwards I believe, so will be tough to do.
Holy shit that’s a lot of weight out.
Next step would be the seats, which I think would be about another 60-70 lbs out easy
Meaning passenger seat out and replacing driver seat for an aftermarket one? That’s some real good weight reduction.
No, will have to replace both with aftermarket seats, we need both seats to be class legal
