Well it has been very exciting to be working on this car because I have always envied my dad and his supras. He has taught me all I know and I couldnt be more grateful. The build is almost done so I guess this thread is a little bit late, but I will post pictures slowly because I really dont feel like uploading 500 pictures at once.

not for me, i hope to get a ride with my father though, i don't know what car we will be bringing.
TT is down, the 90 is untuned, but the 95NA might be good to go?

Chriso's son?
Yeah, but I'm a lot better looking !!! I told him that he has to take the obligatory "stand in the engine bay" pic for prosperity sake like most asians do, notice the epicurean fold on the eyes.

I don't think you could have found a better mentor/teacher/dad then Chris.
Everytime Chris's car comes up in my conversation, the words "meticulous, Clean, perfect" follow through. I am sure we will be saying the same about your car once its done.I know it has been a good project for you.
I can already picture a super clean black MKIII :) lol
Keep up the great work ....see ya guys on Sunday at the Mariner.

Almost done, I just need to pick up Moe's old exaust and put a turbo elbow on it, and I think I will be done.
