Hey guys It figured it's about time i started a build thread for my Soarer. I'm the second owner of the car not including the dealership that took the car in on trade and its in extrmely good shape minus a little interior where and tear So here's the run down

1988 MZ21

-Automatic

-Factory Air suspension

-Toyota EMV (touch screen computer in dash)

-7mgte

-Special "suide" interior that i hate

-The only none OEM item on the car was the HID's and wheels,Work E-wing IV 17x8 and 17x9

Here she is when i picked her up

And after a good cleaning and some love

I've been doing a few small interior projects over the last few weekends, like i said i hated the factory sim suede so i bought a roll of black automotive vinyl and a leather arm rest skin ...there not perfect but i thank there coming out decent.

These showed up in the mail yesterday nothing special there Tein HR's i got them off yahoo autions japan for a steal, unforunatly on is leaking oil pretty bad so i will be sending it back to tein for a rebuild but even after that i will still have less then 300$ in the set

Did a little work today, I picked up a used Apexi Intake for cheap so i installed that and re-installed my door panel

The engine bay is very dirty, so i'm thinking i might steam clean it next weekend

Door panel installed

Lovin that soarer...reminds me of my '87 maxima I used to own. Damn the memory's we had were great ones. Keep up the good work man. That's gonna be a sweet ride when your finished....you think an R154 tranny would fit it?

 

[themadhatter]

Yes a r154 or w58 bolt right up along with supra pedals and master cylinder. The only thing that's different is the rear drive shaft, it's about 2 inches longer the a supra to make up for the soarer being a little longer

Very nice Soarer bro! You ever do that steam clean on the engine? I'm interested in seeing the after pic

 

[SupraOfDoom]

I want one so bad.

IS that the dual Apexi N1's??!!! Looking who's not lurking anymore

 

[themadhatter]

lol I have no idea who made the exhaust ,there are zero manufacturers markings on it but the cans don't look like n1's

 

[akito]

I don't think so because from what I know each muffler's have their own pipings from before/ slight after the pumpkin but nonetheless, i freaking love dual tips.

 

[themadhatter]

here's my long over due update, Since the weather has broken i have had time to installmy coils and new wheels


-Ray's Sebring GT-X wheels, 17x8 +37 in the front and 17x9 rear +35

 

[akito]

More pictures please!!!!! Any more info on that exhaust or where you bought it from, i wonder if I can get it to fit the mk3.

 

[themadhatter]

The Exhaust is an "UpGarage" house brand, they do this with many parts for several cars

 

[akito]

Ah I see, thanks for the info. I tried navigating through their site but it's in Japanese only.
