jfn,
No, I wish. The "grapevine" has also sent me some interesting pics to look at of a Supra. I told him to get that thing out of there so he could work on my white car. I have a feeling he is going to go overboard on my trunk. I can't wait to see finished product.

Shane, yes these cars are addictive. I just spent another 20 bucks in wiring and accessories today, just to have my radar detector and GPS wired into the ignition with the turn of a key. I hate having stuff like that taking up my cigarette outlet.

Drove my sons car to work yesterday. Man, this thing is so quiet and drives like a dream. Has a some power to once you get into it. I kind of wish my car was like this one instead of a loud street car. Oh well, He doesn't get it till October so I'll have tons more seat time.

Well, we spent about 6 hours on Sunday cleaning this thing up. Motor washed and detailed along with wax and replacement of some parts. Really happy with how motor turned out. Will probably leave engine cover off. Stereo starts soon. I've got some really cool plans for it. Simple but really nice.

Definitely get the rear two resonators cut out and have some 2.25" piping welded in its place. I felt more power off the line in addition to the midrange punch with just that mod leaving the stock mufflers on. Netted me a 1-2 mpg gain as well. I felt a little loss off the line once I bolted on the Top Speed mufflers, but nothing too noticeable.
