Hows it going? I'm Chris from Colorado Springs and I just bought a 90 Supra 7MGTE. I'm pretty new to the Turbo side of the house but I've been reading up on a lot of stuff. Unfortunately I'll only be with the car for the month then have to leave back to Germany since it's my duty station. When I get to Kansas I plan on doing a build but not sure where to really start but have gotten a lot of great ideas with the information posted up on the site. I'll try to get a camera or get mine to work somehow to take some pictures of it and post them as soon as possible.

Hey man where are you getting stationed at? I was at Graf and I have a German friend that lives very close to the post. He is a Supra lover like us. Also, you should really take it with you.....it will be worth it.

I'm getting stationed at Fort Riley. I'm in Hohenfels for another 3 months then in August I leave for Riley. I'll either tow the Supra or drive it with me but I hope to get the car finished by next summer barring any catastrophes or major set backs.

I added you on PSN. That looks pretty good. Try using Meguiar's Ultimate to get a majority of that out. I used it on my mother in laws nissan and the paint looks like it did the day she bought it. I used a 7" variable speed buffer and and a red pad from Meguiars.
