It's ALIVE!!!

[ttsupraman93]

These are the most recent pictures of my Supra...It still has to have the bumpers put on it and a few other little things but it's almost there...tell me what you think of the color and all :-D Im Happy :-D

[-TheGlassPrison-]

Road Worthy?;)

Nice car and shots!

[Dandaman_24]

I've always wanted a car like that ! LOL

[skyphix]

Thats a nice color...

Can't really tell from the photos, but it looks to be a gunmetal/bronze/very dark gray with metal flake type color.

The flake looks a lot like Subarus Java Black Perl (whats on my STi)

Are you completely rebuilding this or just having it repainted? Either way... I like the color. You simply have to have respect for a car that can be tuned to more than 1000 WHP!!!

[ttsupraman93]

Jetpilot...There's a fellow by the name of Marko who owns a Supra that made 1520HP to the wheels...and yes it was a supra motor, none of that motor swap crap, he's supposed to be making a little more...It's a full trim supra, and IS driven on the road. He runs a 8.45 because of the supras weight factor. Amazing car! And I am completely rebuilding it. Body, paint, and interior in black. Thnks for the compliments. The color is hard to tell in the pictures but it's called Anthracite.
Dandaman...thanks alot :-)

Holy crap. Didn't know anyone was making THAT kind of power. Keep us updated on the rebuild. I'd like to see pics of the finished product.

defenitly want to see the finished product:cool:

[pcasciola]

That looks like a GREAT paint job. It has to be a good job to take a shot down the side like that. Nice color, too, similar to my 87 RX-7 TII. Can't wait to see it all done.

[ttsupraman93]

Yes ACS does incredible work and they're great people. I suggest anybody who's in this area and wanting a paintob I highly suggest you give them a call.

[IanBMW]

hey pcasciola, i dont believe you how bout pics as proof :P lol j/k. Oh and nice Supra the color is unique as I have only seen them in standard white, black, and red(hate red)

[ttsupraman93]

Well thank you for the color compliment...I didn't wanna go with the blue or black or white like everybody else, and i agree red is HIDEOUS on most supras

[jmuduchess12]

MAN! that's gonna be so hot when it's done.

lol. i'd love see it sometime. especially when you finish the interior.

[pcasciola]

hey pcasciola, i dont believe you how bout pics as proof :P lol j/k. Ok, since you asked. :)

Took a hit in the nose, and a buddy of mine helped me weld on a new subframe:

Right after I repainted the nose. A little more gray than the Supra I guess.

Couldn't find a T-II hood, but I like it better this way because it's more of a sleeper. Tops out at about 175 mph. It's an absolute rocketship, even faster than my Porsche 928S4 that I unloaded a few years ago. It has an upgraded turbo, ported engine, HKS intercoolor, HKS fuel computer, G-Reddy Profec boost controller (with A/B settings for stock boost vs. race boost), one piece Mazdaspeed exhaust imported from Japan, and about 3 rebuilds in it's 35,000 life because of the excessive boost. This is one of my other vices, fast cars. :)

Luckily, there is a sports car road course opening up 15 minutes from my house, so I'll finally be able to get to use the thing again soon to it's full potential.

[ttsupraman93]

pasciola...I definately want to see the finished product :-) I love Rx7's except for the motor lol :-D

[ttsupraman93]

pasciola...I definately want to see the finished product :-) I love Rx7's except for the motor lol :-D nonetheless its a badass car with ALOT of potential!!! let's see more

[pcasciola]

I haven't taken a picture of it in a while. It's actually roadworthy again, but I only drive it once in a while. Right now It's up on a trailer covered with snow. I'm hoping to get the whole car repainted professionally this year.

I'm not crazy about the rotary either. Rotary lag combined with turbo lag makes it a pig off the line, but once it gets wound up it's pretty amazing. I'm also having a major problems with cooling now, even when I have it switched to stock boost.

I can't wait to see the Supra done as well. Let's see who can get done first, maybe it will motivate us to finish quicker. :lol:

[ttsupraman93]

I BET I CAN FINISH FASTER!!! lol :-D
But yes rotaries are laggy, but it must be nice to rev the motor that much! Concerning the heating...Are you running stock exhaust? What bout radiator? a Catback exhaust because the exhaust is so damn restrictive on those things and a nice aftermarket radiator seem to take care of the heating problems they have. Also try an oil cooler.

[djdino]

From a former FD owner....looks good TTSupraman93!

[NickW]

Ahh yes, MSB is a great color...I've got a buddy with one rolling around here. Although its been done due to the motor being built. I'll see if I can snag some pics.

[Sohc_mshue]

nice! Can't wait to see the finished product:D

[ttsupraman93]

Thanks Everyone for your interest in the car...i'm VERY excited to see it done, and can't wait to start putting the interior back in. And i'm excited to share the outcome with all of you. :-)
