So supras are a good touge car

[fiyota]

There is a road that is about half an hour away from me that is absolutely amazing... Locally it's known as westside road... It is a very dangerous road if you are not careful, basically the entire time you are beside a cliff....

Touge is what I mainly do with my car, but haven't had a chance to put any money into it in the handling department yet.

New wheels and Tires (should be getting them tomorrow)
Megan Track coil overs
ST Swaybars
New bushings
ARZ 13" 4-pot brakes in the front, possibly mk4 brakes in the rear.

Just thought you might be interested in case Vermont isn't to far out of your range. Touge seems like it would be a lot of fun and I can't wait to try it sometime. I think this season my brother and I will be going out to some hillclimbs.

I am definitely planning on making some hill climbs and possibly that thing in Vermont. But I doubt the car will see much non-event mountain road driving. It's not worth the risk to me, especially with the large amount of events out here this season.

It would be awesome if we could make it out to that. However if you want to thats less than 3 weeks I have to help you get the car running again. We will hopefully make it to a lot of hillclimbs later in the season though.

yes but there are ways of doing it safe and smart

 

[Wiisass]

I'm not saying there's not ways to do it safe and smart. I would just rather not deal with that. And especially with the high number of events going out out here and their frequency and the other cars I will be building/working on. I don't see the time or the need to do stuff like that.

we do that here in cali. Highway 17, G16 road. My car was ok for it, but my FC stock is way better for it that my Sup with lowering springs and tokicos and ebc green stuff brakes and pilot sport tires

LOL I took a JZA70 down there that had wheels/suspension, an 04 Z4 BMW couldn't get away on me, but I did manage to overheat the rotors something fierce

Probably going to GMR this weekend. Heard about it from some friends, looks insanely fun on Google Maps, but my buddy and I will just take it slow..
