RX8 do the same - procedure for a flooded engine is to crank with throttle on the floor. ECU won't inject any more fuel then. I've saved a couple of "non-starters" over the years! No idea if the GR does this though.

Spanked it around the Cairngorms - bumped into another Yaris and a GR86. Good run and nice to meet you guys! I found some bikes to harass later on, great fun.

Especially when you nip out in front of someone else, or go round the outside of a ditherer!

Used it instead of the van to go pick up another bottle of welding gas. Straps from central seat hinge to Isofix mount worked well - some enthusiastic driving involved and the bottle didn't move a bit!

I have to remember to recalibrate my inputs every time I get back into my daily driver large van...

I'm currently minus an 8mm 1/4 drive socket and a 1/4 drive to hex adapter... Hopefully they're still in the undertray when I get a chance to drop it!

Fitted shifter base and gearbox cable end bushings. Shift feels even sexier now! Edit: Details here: https://www.gr-zoo.com/threads/shifter-base-bushing-upgrade.3642/post-73199

Quick follow up post - fitted all the bushes today with no issues other than struggling to not get grease all over the interior... Less than an hour's work. Tegiwa's video was handy for showing how to pull the interior apart:

Thanks! Copying links here for anyone searching in future, and I'll update once fitted. Shifter base: https://www.rhdperformance.co.uk/delrin-shifter-base-cage-bushings-for-toyota-mr2-mk3-roadster-zzw30-00-07-78022-p.asp Gearbox linkage...

Do you have a link to the bushings you used?

Spotted @willox leaving - didn't even realise there was a second GR there till I saw you head out the driveway!

Hold the cruise button on the steering wheel down until "radar ready" disappears and you have dumb cruise control. Sounds like an epic trip!

Got one of these as a xmas gift, only one "hint" needed... ;) Cracking print, just need to get it framed now. https://www.etsy.com/listing/1355460612/toyota-gr-yaris-gr-four-artwork-drawing

Spotted a grandpa-spec one in the supermarket car park today. Love how different yet how similar at the same time.

I have an Autel TPMS tool, just near Inverurie, it can clone your stock TPMS so there's nae fannying about when changing wheels. Autel TPMS sensors £100 a set here, probably find them cheaper with a bit of searching: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/174094693379

Clarted all the metal bits (except brake discs!) in ACF50. Sealy paraffin blower worked perfectly. Used about 300ml ACF50 for the whole car, and I wasn't shy with it. Much less concerned about salt on the roads now, but I'll have a check mid-winter to see how its holding up. Wouldn't fancy...

How about one of these stuck on top of the infotainment screen? ;)

Set your mapping app to have "north up" instead of "track up". Then you'll know which way you're going.

I had the first one in Scotland but came to the same kinda conclusion as you - too many near misses, lost mates and riding-like-a-dick moments to stay with it. Bit of a crash on the supermoto (on track) also slowed me down for a few weeks - 6 broken ribs is a bit nippy. One of these years I'll...

And some bikes - I found myself being held up by a couple of bikers over some twisties. Not much in it but it definitely didn't take long to catch back up to them after they escaped ahead with their ease of overtaking.
