for saving me from the devil that is supraforums! man that sites terrible. i feel like i can post my noob questions here without being insulted or told to search for every little question i have.

anyways, rant over. hey guys! im TJ im from san diego california and i have owned my supra for about a year and a half. i have an 87 na. i bought it to learn to work on cars and boy have i learned. over the trials and tribulations ive had with my car i have fallen in love with the mk3 supra. im currently planning on picking up a local 7mgte and doing a turbo swap. or maybe finding a good running one. either way i am planning on starting to race autocross in the next couple months
i am an avid mountain biker and make a living as a bicycle mechanic. i am currently in school to become an aviation mechanic. anyways, heres a couple photos, shes not much to look at but i love her.

Welcome to SM!

Looks like your Supra is ready for H&Rs /or Coilovers, & a Bomex front lip/or east bear lip & a 89+ 3 piece spoiler

saving up for some stance coilovers. i picked up a bomex front bumper for 25 bucks off craigslist. yes the car is just rattlecanned black on the hood and roof because the paint was starting to go to crap so the previous owner painted it. also planning on picking up some 18" rota p45's. i dont think im going to get a wing because i really dig the wingless look but i do want to get the shade thing that goes over the rear window. one cool thing i found the other day when i was changing out the rear struts. i found a 28mm sway bar and braided steel brake lines.
but for right now im just daily driving it. im planning on starting the autocross immediately though. there is a race day on oct 21st that im planning on attending. i figure if i get started now ill do better when my car is set up. hopefully 10 years of racing downhill mountain bikes helps me with racing cars. well see how much transfers over
