Post what makes your Supra unique, i.e. Custom Parts / Fabrication / Rare Pieces?

[sethron71]

I Custom built it. When I laid the radiator back it was not longer the high point. So I welded a Rad mount to the elbow. If you have not changed the radiator then there is no reason to go to it, it was just to get the fil back up to the highest point!

Thanks,
Seth

foreverpsycotic- 5Zigen FUCK NO! Holset X234456@^%@#%... i have no idea what that is please enlighten us. And once again PICS!!!!!!
g special or very aftermarket abotu it, so nothing too unique. not to mention ITS NOT EVEN WORKING YET!!!

Holset HX35w compared to a CT26. Came off of a mid 90s Dodge 2500 turbo diesel. Should make 550whp on race fuel and high boost, but I will be happy with the 400whp on pump gas.

...it would be easier to pour into. Ya know, for those times when you're trying to fill the radiator without a funnel and you get coolant all over the core support...

Plus, I don't have any fans in between my rad and the block (mine are in front), so it just seemed like a logical place to put it.

Loki- Nope

My exhaust is custom, it needed fab to make it work, and it's rare. Maybe you can enlighten me as to why it doesn't fit in? I'm just curious.

CT-26 with T04 "H" wheel............Thanks suprahero! Installed and running now!

And, sporting 3 stock colors, and one more from the Bomex............check out sig! Paint will come, just don't know when.

 

[suprahero]

If you get it painted, it won't be so unique.........especially if you paint it that dang'd red color.........:biglaugh:

 

[Nick M]

Mine isn't unique, in that I am following what somebody else did. My biggest "mod" is in the maintenance department. And it is going to get bigger. I am glad my car looks like it did when Toyota built it.


Borhor; your wheels are too big for your tires.

Yeah. that pic isn't updated. I already went to a larger size.

Woot I made another failing thread. :3d_frown:

 

[alloyguitar]

lol, the fact that it actually has responses means that it isn't failing...

Responses is not the issue. Getting good ones is the problem.

 

[rodel]

Responses is not the issue. Getting good ones is the problem.

That's because everyone thinks they're own car is different, even though it may not be. Rather than owners responding about their own Supra... a better question would be:

"Who do you think has a unique Supra, excluding yourself? What makes it unique?"

Example:

Bor, I think your Supra is unique cuz you have crazy wheel offsets and a custom dual N1 exhaust.

 

[Rennat]

it should be labeled "custom parts thread"

because once you start getting into the "unique" and "rare" everybody has there own opinion, i have a "custom" intake... its just a metal pipe from the exhaust shop... theres nothing spectacular about it, other than it got rid of my leaky holey silencer...


and borhor, i cant believe how much money you have spent on that car... you have to love it in order to just keep droppin that kind of money on it...

 

[CRE]

Does this count?

My MAFT Pro's got a blue display:

It's not dim, the blue backlight is actually too bright... so I will be adding a dimmer to it.

This thread does fail. It has no direct boundries of what you want to post, and everytime people post anything that does not go under what you see as a "good post" you complain about it. Too bad nobody knows what you are looking for. You said to post stuff that is unique, basically every post ive seen in this thread is something that is unique.

 

[alloyguitar]

Honestly, I keep returning to this thread to see what other people have done that's outside of the box, so to speak.

The dual n1's is a good example. I have a 4" dp, and am looking at a way to quiet it down a bit (actually, a lot), and that just may be the answer. So, therefore, this thread has helped me in some way.

 

[supramad77]

Ok here is what makes mine unique
Custom dash with 7" monitor and a pc with xp pro running on it. Custom pod molded into the glove box lid.
Lots of other dials and gauges custom placed in the dash.

19" rims with a shine auto kit. Quite a few engine mods with a 3.5 inch intercooler and hard pipe kit.

Very rare regulus rear wing.

4'' to dual 2.5'' pipes with 2.5'' resonators between the downpipe and the rear muffler, either a muffler like borhor or magnaflow makes a polished or stain SS muffler for under 70~ that looks really nice!

 

[alloyguitar]

tempting, but now I need to find a 4" to 2.5 splitter...
