Welcome Mr. Philly. I hope you have a good time on here learning and cutting up. You guys have one of the mostest famousest supras in the world in Pennsylvania. He goes by the name of Buckshot here and rumor has it that his car may even crank sometime this year. You must feel truly blessed to be from the same state as him. Please dont' act like you haven't heard of him either.

Jay was talking about Supraholics car, but he got the names mixed up. He's so silly.:)

welcome... how do you like that brake set up
-josh

the calipers and the pads seem up to the job os stopping the car, but when im hard on the brakes i get a hum i dont like. its from the slots as they run across the pads. so im going to a crossdrilled only rotor soon. hope fully i will be able to ditchthe stock system soon and either go big brake kit or 300 zx 4 piston calipers up front and 2 pot calipers in back.

Just out of curiosity what gauges are those?

They're freaking nice looking :)

Also great looking supra! Seems to be a ton of those in Philly. (Figures that I brought mine from Across the Bettsie Ross in new jersey!)

Haha that's a much nicer drive then the NJ to Colorado Drive ;) Even though I had a blast!

Yeah I might have to look into getting that kit, would fit my car nicely and keeps the comfortable stock look :).
