New Owner 1989 Hardtop Turbo (Pics and ?'s)

[Mark2]

Hi All,

Just picked up my 1989 Hardtop Turbo about a month ago and have the itch to do my next mod. Here is what is already done to the car:

18" Volk SF Challenge wheels 10" rear and 9" front
Eibach Pro springs with Tokico gas shocks.
Defcon downpipe with Greddy EGT probe
HKS Drager cat back exhaust with Random Tech 3" hi-flo cat.
Blitz dual solenoid boost controller.
HKS Sequential blow-off valve.
Spearco intercooler
RC 550 injectors + Lexus AFM
Greddy electronic fuel pressure guage.
Short throw shifter
FJO Air/Fuel ratio computer monitor with 5 wire O2 sensor.

I have no idea what to do next. The engine is in fantastic shape mechanically and the head is torqued properly. I know the stock CT26 could be one are of improvement....any recommendations? I used to be a 91 MR2 Turbo owner so I'm still learning about the Supra and the 7mgte.

Any recommendations would be appreciated.

Thanks!

P.S. I'm not looking to swap in a 1JZ or 2JZ, I know someone would probably recommend that.

Here are some pics:

Thanks for the replies everyone. I'm loving this thing so far. I was worried that giving up my mr2 turbo would be a mistake but since I bought this I haven't even thought of the mr2. It's nice to have speed, comfort, a decent trunk, fold down rear seats, rear seats, and no damn t-tops leaking water on me.

Don't sell this car you'll regret it haha, if you dont mind me asking how much did that mk3 run ya?

Wow, those wheels are amazing! Black's my favorite supra color too =) How do those eibachs w/tokicos perform? I might be salvaging my old eibachs from my other shell and buying some tokicos to fix my bouncing car problem.

$8500 Canadian. Engine is beautiful and is spotless, no winters and only 2 owners. Cost me a little more than most Supras up here but came with perfect condition Volks with new Michelin Pilot tires, all the mods listed above and was really well taken of. It worked out well for me because I sold my MR2 for $2000 more than this.

I don't plan on selling this car.

They're great. The car is solid but the ride is not very bumpy or bouncy. There is a slight amount of body roll during hard cornering and the nose dips a little under hard braking but nothing that bothers me much. It's a nice balance of streetability for the city and performance.
