So In August of 2010 I purchased a 1990 Supra N/A with a 2JZ swap already in it. Whoever did the swap cut some corners on a few things that I will have to clean up as I go, but it's overall pretty clean and its a good start. The shell only has 4x000 miles on it, so the interior is pretty damn clean...burgundy...but clean.
The car came with a freshly built r154 with marlin crawler parts, a supposedly "new" clutch, what looks to me a driftmotion 67mm turbo kit, Safc controller, front mount intercooler, and an Apexi N1 muffler on a straight pipe.
Since then I've been slowing modding it as money and time allow...manily money since my friend does most of the mechanical work.

So far whats be purchased and has gone on.....
New Steering Rack
Valve Stem Seal Kit
Spec Stage 3 clutch (supposed new clutch was completely shot)
Spec Billet Steel Flywheel(said clutch was shot so bad one of the bolts ran a groove into the flywheel)
ARP Flywheel bolts, and OEM Pressure Plate Bolts
Megan Racing Coilovers
Power Steering Rebuild Kit and Driftmotion Line (previous owner slobbed silicone all over it and was leaking EVERYWHERE)
Optima Yellow Top
Driftmotion Brake Lines, and Porterfield R4-S pads (owner already had some drilled and slotted rotors...eventually they will go and be upgraded)

I also picked up a backup interior to refinish in black so that burgundy go! I started on painting the plastic pieces last night and today. Started with a really nasty piece to make sure the paint was any good and it was going to be worth my time.
I'll be getting the seat recovered along with the inserts
Slowly but surely this car is getting to look better and better
Oh yeah.....and I ordered these.....be here thursday
