    Is Supra right for me?

    I think in most cases, if you have to ask, then chances are the answer is no. But its not always going to be the case. With such a small budget, you do have to understand, as stated above, that there will be a lot of maintenance involved and things will break. Its probably a good suggestion to...

    HOW TO : Paint gauge cluster, kindof neat..

    To each their own. I used to do simple things like this back when I was 16-19 but I prefer a stock looking cluster for the most part which is why I also dont get indiglo gauges or things like this. Ok, i'll stop my old man rant. But im sure it doesnt look bad when done right, its just not for...

    Cool/Rare parts thread?

    I have them on sliders for adjustibility, the wedge engineering mounts have height adjustments, and the recaro seats have back adjustment knobs. And as seen in the pics they also have side levers to recline the seats quickly to access the rear.

    Cool/Rare parts thread?

    Yes very light with sliders. Compared with stock, they feel like they are weightless.

    Cool/Rare parts thread?

    Mine are the original material in blue, they just never came this way on the Supra TT-R seats which mine are not. Just hard to come by blue Recarro in the same color as the Toyota Blue interior. Recaro had lots of different style seats with logos in different places.

    Wheel Fitment & Question Thread

    19x8+45 is "okay" at best for stock suspension. Although, that offets seems very shallow for the rears. You would want at least a 9 inch wheel for the rears I would think.

    Wheel Fitment & Question Thread

    Very simple to install. I recently installed a set of 4 Project Kics spacers and its as easy as removing your wheels, mounting the spacer, torque it down to spec with the special lug nuts, mount wheel and torque with standard lug nuts. Ive heard Ichiba tend to vibrate so for the first few days...

    Wheel Fitment & Question Thread

    Depends on what tire size you are looking to run as well. I recently installed spacers on my 18x10+30 (front) and 18x10+24 (rear) essentially making them +15 and +14 respectively. Fit is close and visually looks how I want them but the rears are very close since I have a moderate fender roll and...

    what bov do you run and why do you like it or hate it

    I now use a Synchronic BOV as a few cheapies I used still caused turbo flutter on the stock twins on the 1J. I was surprised that the cheap ones as well as the stock Denso BOV's still had flutter. It was hard to hear and standing above the engine bay you would not notice it but if I stuck my ear...

    Hella H4 or E codes?

    As stated above, E-Code means EUROPEAN standards. With that said, European lighting regulations are far more strict than the ones here in the USA. Since they use signs with their own lighting, and do not require the auto lamps to light them up, they are very strict on not having car lamps bleed...

    headlight conversion

    My thought is that you only have to cut the rad support if you dont modify the NSX headlights. I have a set that I plan to install, but im going to retrofit better newer projectors in them which are MUCH shorter than the old ass ones in there, so I can cut the overall depth of the NSX lights in...
