Ian Posted September 29, 2013 Author Share Posted September 29, 2013 (edited) Very nice Ian How much faster you gonna make it TBH I won't be doing a lot to it at all. Only plans for now are to replace the ICE with my own setup, replace the AFR gauge with my HKS one & replace the gauges with Defis. I might also change the front bumper eventually but I'm in no rush to do that Errrr, I lied Winter is fast approaching & to save money for my winter plans, the Supra has now been declared sorn. I made a bit of a start last weekend in stripping a few bits off and selling them & then today I popped down to see Paul at Whifbitz & pick up my new diffuser :thumbup: Sneaky trial fit with my new wing aswell My exhaust does need adjusting a bit so that the diffuser clears it properly, its a shame that the wing isn't a few shades lighter because it would have been a perfect match I'm hoping to pick up a cheap spare hatch aswell so that I can alternate between big wing & wingless I think there may also be some changes going on upfront & in the engine bay Edited February 9, 2014 by Ian 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete87 Posted November 29, 2013 Share Posted November 29, 2013 Sweet car I'm glad your spraying the wheels I'm not a fan of the colour , love the rear diffuser but then I am biased towards big carbon diffusers lol. I prefere it with the spoiler off but spare boot lids sounds cool. What power is this running? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Posted November 29, 2013 Author Share Posted November 29, 2013 Decided to keep the gold wheels & stick with the wingless look Power wise its 460hp/480 ft/lb will hopefully hit 500 with injectors & a few tweaks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GT4 Zed Posted November 29, 2013 Share Posted November 29, 2013 Amazing buy Ian! How did I miss this thread? The supra is among one of my all time great jap cars. And certainly one for the bucket list. Keep updates coming man! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Posted December 29, 2013 Author Share Posted December 29, 2013 (edited) A few updates as promised I sold the TRD wing & will instead buy a small lip spoiler. Custom vented bonnet fitted Got some aerocatches to replace the cheapy latches already fitted. Also got my dash wrapped in Suede, new gear knob & steering wheel fitted. I've still got a few interior things to do - Need to relocate the TCS button, change the dash lights to blue & buy a new shifter boot. Ridox front bumper should be here in the next week or two along with a few CF touches for the engine bay Cams, Injectors & mapping coming up after paint Edited February 9, 2014 by Ian 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GMballistic Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 Looking very cool Ian although the bonnet isn't a very good colour match. Love the dash wrap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Voodoo Vix Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 Love the dash Be careful with those vents, Mike has the same and the passenger ones are a nightmare in the rain unless the electrics are covered, we have to put bin bags in the engine bay when the car is washed and if it's at a show in the rain, just to protect them!

Yeah I need to sort something for it, Luckily its under cover when its at home so shouldnt be too bad. I'm considering relocating the battery to the boot aswell to help with it a bit. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GMballistic Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 Relocating the battery to the boot's a good idea. My mate has done that on his Impreza just to give him more room in the engine bay for his intercooler pipes but it's definitely a good idea if your worried about water issues with the bonnet vents.

Voodoo Vix Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 Relocating the battery is a good idea for space but it isn't generally the problem with these vents, it's hard to see how long the vents are and whether they are in the same position but with Mike's the main problem is the module by the suspension mount on the passenger side (the box to the right of it) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
