Nice score Dave, good to see it went to a good home!!!. I still can't believe he sold it, he (and myself to a point) had so much time and effort into that car and it was finally " finnished".
Jeremy is one of the original pioneers of the mk3's at least here locally. He has had the car scince 2000 or eariler, before I even had my car, and he also had one of the first 1j swaps ever here in Canada. It will be sad to see him gone as I imagine he wont be spending much time here on the forums or at the track, but life and priorities change.
Bring it to the track next summer, that car has low 11's in it !!

^ He bought his around same time as mine Randy, and track?! Good luck in getting Dave there, he never went with his other car as I mentioned. I would like to see it go the 1/4 but doubtful.
How about this! Dave, you have some low boost time slips when you bought the car but are not allowed to pass them off as your own, sorry, you have to drive it yourself. :biglaugh:
Randy, I remember when yours was Blue and you just picked it up.

looks like a stock bumper with the grille cut out, and a turbo a-duct installed...
WOW still getting over the shock of letting this car go. I have so many great friends I have met with it and memory's with it.
It was the hardest decision I have ever made, more so than buying a house for the first time.
Kind of feel like I have lost a big part of myself, but knowing its gone to a good Supra home has made it easier.
Dave hope you enjoy it and set it to high boost at least some times.
Jeremy
p.s. Thanks for the "thanks for building me my car" comment good virtual kick to the nuts LOL

I'll be there.radiod;1465653 said:Very much looking forward to seeing it around sometimeI'll have to catch you at a meet or down at the track in the summer. Please tell me you're going to bring her to the track
Hey, I raced the other car last summer. You even took video of it, with my camera no less! I'll race this one, too... why not?upgradedsupra;1465656 said:
It runs *better* than it looks.green;1465667 said:
Never you mind how much I paid for it. Now that I own it, you can have it for a measly $50k. Until I finish up all the little things, then it's going up to $65k. Unless I'm feeling grumpy, or I don't like you, then it'll be even higher! :icon_razzMK3.0dudeman;1465777 said:
Nah, not yet anyway... the interior needs some love yet. It's not bad by any stretch, but just think of a regular Supra with a bunch of extra gauges in the center console and Recaro seats.Clip;1465784 said:
I already took those timeslips out of the car. I'm sure those are better than I'll get. Well, unless I bite the bullet, pick up some slicks and get the launch control working!!!upgradedsupra;1465824 said:
I dunno about low 11s, I suspect I'm going to get banned for not having a roll bar if I pulled that off... and I'm certainly not as good of a driver as Jeremy, even including the fact that this car makes you a better driver.
Well, at least you haven't abandoned us entirely! I'll point out to the rest of the crew that before I bought it, I spent hours on the phone and on IM trying to convince you to keep it. I thought I'd succeeded, too, for what, about 3 months? Failing that, I made sure it went to a good home.Turbo Drifter;1465858 said:
I'll also say that buying the house is the right choice. I've made more money on my house in the last 8 years than I have at my day job, and this isn't exactly the best economy we've seen, either.
When it comes to high boost...
To be honest, I'll probably get it there and leave it there all the time. I won't use all that power every day, but once I put some really sticky rubber on there and the weather gets warmer, I'll use it now and then. Plus I drive to the interior several times a year for vacations, and there are some really sweet empty roads on the way there and back. I've had some real fun with my other car, I'm sure I'll have some more with this one.Sorry about the 'Thanks for building my car' comment. Hopefully that'll age into a bittersweet memory with time!!!

Yeah it was funny as hell and so true. Have fun with it, I had been dreaming of a trip up to the interior with it but it never happened.
Again have a great time with it, looking forward to see how you make it yours.
Jeremy
huh, im shocked. I would have thrown my car to the curb and sold both my nuts if I would have know that it was for sale. Sorry to hear you had to sell it Jeremy. On the other hand congrats on the purchase Dave. Im jelous. And I want the wheels, but it looks like they will be long gone. I might check in with you after I get my xmas bonus, just to double check they arnt still for sale.
I say we all go for a cruise to the interior once the road thaws out.
im still shocked by this...

Can't hurt to check. I've driven this to work a couple days now, and I think I get happier each time I sit in it.Jayhall;1466064 said:
lol - no way, if Toyota had put it in there, you'd see a lot more misc nonsense littering the engine bay! Another turbo, first of all...SupraRon;1466165 said:
Well I am glad that it has stayed in the PacNW family and I will still get to see it. I stared at it all the way down to the track last summer. Can't wait to see it again next spring.
Ok, Dave, I will saved this thread, you will race it, good.
