Finally hit the 200,000 mile mark but the supra is running perfect since the engine rebuild... I am just enjoying driving it while the economy sucks balls and I can't find a job!
While I sit & surf unemployed I see a very nice 200,000 mile Supra that runs better than mine, and has a lot more gas in it too.
Very nice!
Very nice!
Can't find a job in houston??? Damnit son I've had a few dealerships wanting to pick me up while I came back home to visit family.
Although the car looks beautiful congrats on hitting 200k on the speedo!!!
Hope you guys both get jobs soon! good luck

So I want to upgrade my suspension or do fuel mods/turbo/intercooler.
Been looking for some TT-R springs or Turbo-A springs but am having difficulty. I want to mate them with bilsteins all around for a factory small drop. Added with new sways and any other components that need upgrading. Anyone that can help me find some TT-R springs I would greatly appreciate it A LOT!

After a lot of thought and back and forth I have decided tonight that I will be doing fuel/turbo modifications for the holidays! Should be fun :evil2: Stay tuned...
Change of plan again! Got into powder coating and glass bead blasting!
Got an air compressor for my birthday and then I bought this small blast cabinet.
Unsure how it would work I was worried. But I got it working and the results so far have been good I think! I blasted an old crescent wrench and here were the results...

Well I plan to coat some of my own parts. This particar piece I am doing for a friend. I have wrinkle black and chrome and come other black powders that came with my Eastwood powdercoating kit. I'm having a hard time finding an oven that will accomidate my motegi rims on my scion tc.
That sand blaster is the best thing anyone could buy.I used it on everything back in my day at my old shop.I'm buying one when I do my swap!!
