What did you do to your supra today? Pics

[Doat]

Finally got my car back from the shop and so happy to have her back it was a blast driving her all day today and the weather is just perfect here in Houston. I was following my friend in his Skyline R33 and we came to an intersection under a highway and I thought he was going straight but he turned last minute, so I got on the brakes firmly and turned in and the ass end stepped out gently I just held the slide for a bit and straightened out smoothly it was so much fun never did that with my car in dry conditions only did it a couple of times in the wet.

Looking good doat! Anymore pics of the front lip? I'm liking it, how's the clearance?

 

[Silver MK3]

Looks good Doat! I'm glad you were finally able to get your bumper painted!

 

[Doat]

I will post up more pics after my friend posts the ones he took with his camera while we were cruising to the car show. The clearance is great I haven't scraped at all yet

Changed out all 4 struts and added a HKS TEMS controller!

Coolness

I'm going to drill a hole above my rear coilovers and make a tool to be able to turn the top knob to readjust them without having to take apart the interior

I drove mine for the first time since november while installing the ms3pro. By drive, I mean I idled down the road since my wideband took a dump and the car seems to be running really lean when I give it gas. I have a new wideband on the way already and should be able to drive it this weekend.

Picked this up from powder coating yesterday.
Satin black valve covers and thermostat housing. Wrinkle black upper/lower intake and 3000 pipe.

Looks pretty sharp!

The ES bushings and the "scary" YouTube video do have done differences. Why they fail can be more than just the fact they aren't bonded. There are three sizes of pins. Use the wrong size... Failure. That video, the guys got a huge gap. Mine are snug (will put up some photos later today). Only way mine would push past that I can see is if the urethane fails.

There may be a problem with friction on the sides of the bushing later on, but I will be watching for that. So far they look and feel good. All in all, I'm happy with all of it, but this is day one.

How are these supposed to "Push past" on harsh conditions?

Looks a lot like mine, but I like that yours came out with tighter wrinkles.

I watched that fully. Makes sense.. but where can I find proper bushings for the LCA's?

I can only find Super Pro front bushings on ebay.

Seems we should have a solution already done up for our cars, but I can't find it... lol. Hate feeling stupid.

The only rear solution (other than ES) that I could find for the LCA was

and for the front.. (Super Pro)

What do you have on NTORIOS?

Haha it is almost identical, I'll be painting the lettering and stripes too lol
I like what you did with the lettering on the coils. Are you going to be using a ffim?

No I have the 3000 pipe already ready to go but I think I'm going to do something similar to this as far as the intercooler piping. I may end up going ffim if I say with the 7m in the future, for now I'm just doing a stock Rebuild NA-T

Installed my Ford montero fans today. Much better than those cheap fans I had on previously.

Surprisingly a very good fit and could use the factory mounts on my megan racing radiator. My temps hold 185 all day now!

Finally done with this PITA project I hate wiring/soldering/crimping!

Pulled out the ct26. Took me forever, never seen so many seized up and rusted bolts. Nuts getting ruined and bolts snapping everywhere. Good thing though, no shaft play and spinning freely. I'll finish the HG and studs this weekend.

Got my confirmation letter to have the car displayed at Toyotafest in 10 days!

I also snapped this picture!

Finally got to wash and clay bar the car after getting her fixed I love how it glistens in the sunlight.

Looking pristine Doat! The new lip looks great.




My Supra mod addiction continues....I switched out my 17" RPF1s to an 18" set. This will make some room for that $300 BBK upgrade as see in that one thread that I've been secretly lurking in...

Also I had my buddy design a door decal based on the turbo-A one. This pic is a mock-up done in photoshop. Will be getting the decals cut Monday.
