hey, I know where that is. That's just parallel to Firestone, right? I have a friend that I went to highschool there with... he has an AE86 and an 89 supra. I should call him up.

lol..That's exactly where it is! I believe it's called burns street? It's not far from my house. It's a great street for some 0-60 WOT runs...because it's one way, and there are no driveways, sidewalks, or streets that people or cars can jump out at you from...lol

Hells: lol...that would be cool, maybe you can work it so that you are here during one of the Autobacs meets?

Okay, it's been a while since the last update...but I really haven't done much to the Supra lately, I'm really just waiting on parts right now...:(

I decided to go with JZA70 Springs instead of the 89+ ones, hopefully I will be getting them from a local Supra person this weekend...

But I finally got a digi cam! Thanks Matt! (For all of the previous pics in this thread I would have to borrow my neighbor's camera :nono:)

So here are some random pics! Enjoy!

I took the car today to have the suspension checked out on a lift...damn, I had to wait like an hour for the lift, because it was being used...lol, you have to be on the VIP list just to have this mechanic look at your car..lol.

To my surprise, everything looks okay! So, now that I don't have to wait for any more parts, it looks like all I will need to do is replace the springs and shocks...I'm going to have to drive all the way to Riverside to get new KYB GR-2 shocks from simpsons7s (Aaron)... I have made it my goal to get it done next week...hopefully monday or tuesday!

Oh, and here are some pics of the car you are reading about!!!!!
