Yes, exactly that. First time driving mine without one (post fmic fitting) at about 80mph I nearly soiled myself! It went back on the next day :)

 

You serious?? Tbh, I've never once thought that the supra felt unstable at any speed (unless it's raining and your foot is to the floor), and I've been a little faster than 80mph.

Lol, so how did you handle fitting it back with the FMIC in place? Or did it not foul the IC pipework.

 

It wasn't a major problem, but you have to permanently set it in the down position beacuse it can't retract with the the fmic. Just had to lower it first, remove the motor, then make some wiring changes so it didn't throw up a fault code. It was just a few bolts really, there's a write up in tech somewhere. A Greddy 3 row fits nicely behind the stock front without any cutting needed, but airflow to it is obviously restricted (but will work fine unless you go for really silly power)

Yep, serious - there's a substantial front downforce difference with the active spoiler. Its been discussed a few times so lets not hyjack jevansio's thread :)
