sweet ride man!! :love: I so wish we had those here in the states.

My only sugestion, and please dont take this the wrong way, would be to polish the headlights and make them glossy

 

[disturbed1]

Wow, first time seeing this. Very pimp car! Great body style. It's a wonder your brake and clutch resevoirs survive so close to the exhaust!

 

[disturbed1]

i wish toyota had sold these cars in america

They didnt even sell them here we are just lucky that Aussies drive on the same side of the road as the japs, oh and what used to be a very nice trade agreement.

Is the plastic on your headlamps getting dull/foggy? Meguiar's makes a plastic polish that is amazing at making old plastics new again.

 

[disturbed1]

yeah just seems no matter how good a job u do at polishing them - give em a month and they go back to normal

 

[SupraOfDoom]

I had a question for you... how does it feel compared to a a70? Is it VERY similar? Not just the motor stuff, but handling ect...? Thanks

 

[Big Rob]

It is practically the same chassis except for the few extra inchs in length. All the suspension components are identical.

 

[disturbed1]

pretty much as summed up above

ever so slightly longer - only way i found out is tailshafts arnt interchangeable (about 130mm in it)

when i remove the back seats etc - i get the cars weight down to about 1300 kg

given it doesnt have the hatch - id say the rear end is a little lighter

i dont own a supra so cant make an official comparisson

i do know that drifting is alot harder then it looks hahah, think thats got more to do with the driver though not the car cause it sits very flat

 

[slowmedown]

it looks like the engine sits back farther than in an ma70

 

[Big Rob]

I don't think there is 130mm difference in engine position to the bumper, i think the front of the car is very similar. I would say from what i have seen is that the difference is due to the trunk not being a hatch.
