Wellll I guesss if everything goes the way I would like them to I can keep my 7M in my MK3 and then acquire a mk4 within the next 2 years so I can have the jz motor that way and keep them separate

Sill have a couple old hoses in the engine bay and since I got one of those ebay silicone hose kits which is actually pretty nice plus the 2 hoses off the brake booster are discontinued

But these bitches were solid and were stubborn as hell lol I had to split them to get them off with the exception of the turbo coolant hose that one wasn't bad

Sooo not alot has been going on with the supra however I did try and make a couple passes at the track and well.... my stock clutch didn't like that soo it burnt up.

So I went and got a clutch that will hold some more power (spec) and decided to also go with a lightweight one piece drive shaft (shaftmasters) and also change out the trans fluid while the trans was out (reline mt90)

Thanks guys I'll have to get a couple more pics of the mk4 the weather has been on and off rain since the day I picked it up I got a really good deal on it for all the work that had been done to it and what has been replaced the paint is 10 and so is the interior it could have sold for another 15k from what I paid

But to be honest no real plans other than keep her clean it needs nothing other than replaced rear hatch struts, tint and removal of the lettering on the tires... runs great heat and ac work has 2 maps one for pump one for e85

At first I was going to do another project but for the price of these things and the deal I got no project for me I have receipts for all the work and parts replaced

currently running just a 255/40/17 with about a finger of space I do not rub with these and my fenders are not rolled you might be able to pull that off with rolled fenders
