Default Jimmy's 2GS build (Bippu147)

So I decided to create a new thread...since my last one wasn't titled properly as my build thread, and some big things are in the works as well.







When I bought the car it was bone stock. It sat on my driveway for about 3 months undriven until I sold my Supra and had the motivation to start working on it. Car needed brakes and suspension right away, so I just jumped into the build without ever really driving it in stock form.





Performance:
-HKS super hybrid filter
-HKS Hi-power exhaust
-Custom Y pipe

Brakes / Suspension:
-Endless Zeal Funtion T coilovers (custom valved, 22K/20K)
-Supra 4 pot front brake calipers
-Goodridge stainless steel brake lines
-DBA 4000 series slotted rotors
-Endless MX72 pads
-Endless RF650 fluid

Interior:
-JP headrests (rear seats)
-JP cushions
-JP black/chrome front table
-JP curtains
-All white LED interior
-Orido Style (Ridox) Nardi steering wheel
-Worksbell hub

Exterior:
-Greddy Gracer lip
-Chrome trunk bar
-LED tails
-JP replica spoiler, molded in
-3000K HID fogs

Sound:
-Pioneer AVH-P4200-DVD headunit
-Focal 165KRXS front speakers
-Focal 130CVX rear speakers
-Focal 33KX Sub
-Steg Masterstroke MSC1500 amp (front speakers)
-Steg K2.01 amp (sub)
-Custom Enclosure
-Parcel shelf, and all 4 doors fully Dynamatted

Wheels:
-Work LS207 19x9.5 19x10.5
-IS300 17's for winter











Plans:
-Vertex facelift (have headlights and grill)
-GTE swap (have engine, need to find the time to swap it)
-Work XSA 03C wheels (on order)
-ARC airbox (on order)
-Greddy 3row R-spec
-Repaint OEM color

went into the body shop to get some hail damage removed, as well as my trunk repainted and JP spoiler put on... I asked them to check out a little rust spot i saw on the rear quarter turned out that it wasn't just a little rust spot...


The pics speak for themselves...

in for the build!

I guess this is a perfect time to document the GTE swap to a "T", to show everyone how easy it is to perform compared to the NA-T route.
