Hi everyone, time for an intro from me and my car. I live just outside Glasgow in Scotland. I find myself in a strange position as i dont own a supra . The car is powered by a 1ggte twin turbo jdm supra engine and it is a toyota but thats about it as far as supra parts go but it is a close relative as its the daddy of what would eventually devellop into the celica supra.
For the younger Toyota bretheran its a 1976 mk 1 ra28 but with a bite!!!
It has been totally stripped down and is about to be painted,new wheels and interior are also planned.Engine wise the head has been relaxing in an acid bath for a week and the engineer tells me he has good results polishing and porting in the past. The twin turbos will be replaced with a new single garrett and a stand alone ecu will follow when i find a suitable bank to rob!!!!
If i didnt have this to do then id be looking at a mk3 supra and there are some very tasty ones here, anyway hope you like her!

I will have to do a custom job on the interior as the original is in poor condition but im thinking soft leather and brushed alluminium but that could change. As for wheelspin ..... yep.... lots but changing to 18 inch rims and 295mm rubber at the back, it will still spin but at least it shud look good!!! shes managing 13.1 on the 1/4mile with stock engine but hoping to get to low 11s with mods which is poss as it is coming in under a ton. Hopefully have her done for june/july.
Thanks for the kind comments

I was really wanting a gt 30 as it is bb but il sacrifice a bit of spool for a £700 saving. The mani isnt cheap either as it will need to be custom made!
