Project DIY

Racer48

the man on dirt
I had started a build thread on this 86.5 supra a while back in the past, but i lost track of it so im goint to start a new one:icon_bigg. Some of the stuff i will still be done, but what i have changed direction in is parts. I plane on DIYing as much as i can on the car.

what the plan for the car is:
1uzfe swap w/ w58 trans
mega squirt 3 ecu
painless universal wiring harness w/ fuse block
full sheet metal interor
12 point role cage
convert all glass to lexan
compotetion driver seat five point racing harnesses
ksport hydrolic hand brake
wilwood clutch pedal and master cylinder
wilwood brake pedal with dual master cylinders with on the fly bias control
wilwood gas pedal
custom engine harness by me
custom no flip up head lights
89+ tail lights
custom fuel system (fuel cell to rails)
apr rear agustable rear wing
custom front and rear splitters
custom suspention i will be making alot of custom parts including (a arms, pillow mounts, and all the bars under the back)
there will be much more i will let u know as they come.

this how the outside looks needs some body work and paint, but overall it is not really all that bad.

I love how three or four guys are building MKIII race cars right now. Nice to see these things do something other than blow up and rot in fields!

What are you using for the panels? Al? Steel?
