Lol, and don't forget the front seats are switched around and the shoulder harnesses are bolted to the floor.

haha sorry for the late reply.. but il explain... this is really my build. the car is a RHD to LHD convert you see filipinos do all kinds of stuff to cars like chopping the dash in half and switching sides on everything patching it back together and switching arround the seats so the driver currently on the left side may enjoy the power seats, also making a rod across under the dash to facilitate braking so the firewall doesnt have to be cut in order to transfer the brake cylinder.
but this is an old convert when they newly started converting the JDM cars thats why its a lousy job. recently converted cars you cant even notice they are converted unless you spot the welds on the firewall. or the angle of the sidemirrors and headlights or gauge cluster.
regarding the vacuum gauge the mount had three holes in it so i couldnt leave that so i just put in a vacuum too.

if you want you can check the chassi no. the car was imported from japan and converted.
here is a pic of the rod from the break pedal, across the dash to the drum at the right side.
i know it illegal acrording to american laws and its unsafe but hey, its the philippines.lol

ok i just had to update what had happened in the last year. had a few swaps with the springs and stuff because the back end was crazy high
and it looked pretty much silly. but the launching was great.
blew three shocks. the KYBs must be really bad.
the upper shockmounts on the rear R shock failed and sent the shock almost shattering my glass. stupid rubber shockmounts. found a pair of front shock mounts and mated them to the rear.
ive had my Ecu fried twice.
a problem with the alternator is still there. occasionally it starts fluctuating the voltage and returns to normal.
have a new problem with the front suspension and have been crazy trying to fix that.
it makes weird sounds. even though i changed to new balljoints, changed the bushings and checked all the bolts if they were loose.
sorry not a fan of picture taking. so dont usually have pictures to what i do.
will start to post pics.
after all it is the most DIY modified supra on here.haha i think.
