Thats about all I can think of right now, time to bored you with the story of my car
Fell in love with Supra's while playing GT1, loved the A70 back then because it was a cheap car and won me lots of races, and the A80 because it could hit 400km/h+ on the test track. Over the years I dreamed of owning my own. After getting my P's and driving around in a VN wagon I decided to go on a mystical quest to find my very own Supra.
Was at an import lot on day looking at any black manual A70's. All of the ones there were non turbo and had faded and cracked paint. Decided that I didn't want something that would need a respray within a few weeks, was about to call off my search for one. Walking out of the yard I noticed another one, white, 5 speed and 100% stock. Took it for a test drive and loved it. Two weeks later I was driving it home!
My car in its new home, sadly I don't have any pictures of when I first got it, but this is how it looks now.
Over the next few months I did the basic kind of stuff, got a head deck that could play cd's, some decent 18" wheels and new suspension. Car felt like it it was on rails. Car was a dream to drive now and I couldn't be happier. Then some time in June, my good friend rod knock decided to turn up on the way to work. Was good and bad because I always wanted to get rid of the little 1G(didn't deserve any pictures) but at the same time I wasn't expecting to do an engine swap so soon.
3 weeks later my donor car arrived, JZA70 that lost a fight with a telephone pole. Over the next 3 months the engine swap slowly took place, thanks to hopeless mechanics. During the time my car was off the road I picked up a few goodies.
600x300x76 front mount.
3" metal cat from group buy.
Titan Cam gears from another group buy.
Finally got my car back some time in September, they didn't do thing how I had asked and for a few months this is what she looked like. As you can see the genius mechanics made the intake pipe foul on the strut tower...
Got some new seat covers made up, thanks Wolfie for setting up the group buy and Max for taking 4 months to make a gear and handbrake cover... These are my sexy front seats waiting to be put in.
For a few months nothing else really happened, just enjoyed driving the car, after the new year I decided to start spending more money on it and bling up the engine bay a little bit.
