I have had my car now for over a month and i still cannot figure out one thing. This thing being the small red button just above the auto box lever, it has japenese writing underneath it but what does this actually do. When pushed it seems to do nothing..........Bizarre...........

 

Any feedback would be good.

It allows you to move the lever out of park when you have the ignition off. Hold it in as you pull the shifter back.

 

Be worth your while to browse the FAQ section mate :D :d And WTTC dude :)

It is for emergency use only, upon pressing the button it sends out an ultra high frequency distress transmission to every other supra, as a way of alerting the others to danger (much the same way a dolphin uses sonar, or whatever it is they use)

 

Unfortunately Toyota forgot to fit a receiver in all supra's rendering the button useless.
