My 92 3e5 Supra

[mattsplat72]

Well I had a build thread from along time ago and it was stupid. So I am letting it die off too start a new one.

Bought the car in 03 it was NA and stock. the interior was missing some pieces and the car had 189,000 I paid 4500 for it.

These are in 06 Just after getting the GTE swapped in..That was a long drawn out process with many delays and disappointments. Oh well you live and learn.

I liked this set up, But in hind sight I wish I would have kept my 12v outlet.
So After driving the swapped JDM 7m guess what happens......

Me starting my FIRST major engine repair.

New timing belt

[lewis15498]

I have that tshirt too. I think it was from a site advertised in import tuner.

If you were in mass, and this was a FS thread, I would be a happy man! Can't wait to see more!

Oh and I did this three days after a hernia operation.

All back together
Well I didn't know about the issue with coolant/oil and bearings so.....

Here she sits at Intek racing after getting towed with a severe case of bearing failure. BTW this was at the dyno for PNWSupra national 07.......owned......

After a $500 tow bill she is safe at home.

This is my new Daily. It took alot to convince the wife to let me keep the Supra after 2 cases of rod knock and 1 BHG.

But after a trip to Mexico she was happier

OOOoo more pics and info on fogs

 

[mattsplat72]

There is now a premade set up's for sale by suprarx7nut. I have had these on for a while. My fogs are from an ES300. All I did was switch brackets from left to right, then I spun them 180 degrees. Took some long bolts and a piece of tubing to drop them down to fit stock holes. After that I redrilled the mounting holes for the lights and did a bit of trimming to fit. I am using 6000k HID's the light is great as you can see the cut off it good too. The only issue I am having is the projector lenses are yellow and it is making the light green. So I am going to go to 3000k and hopefully that will fix it. Here are some pics.
