As some of you might have remembered my Soarer suffered and engine fire at the end of Jan. It was sad to see her go but life goes on. Here are some recent pics of what I got to replace her. I bought it in Feb. and have been modding it since then.

The first pictures are of my Soarer just before the fire.

i will be the first to say wow.
the new car looks great. thought the orange is a little loud for me its still cool

 

Wow. Your Soarer was my favorite 1J on the board. And by far. How are you liking the power of the 2J compared to the 1J?

I feel like I should drive with a fire extinguisher in the car now.

 

Congrats on the mkiv it looks beautiful. I remember reading up about the fire the soarer was one of my favourites on CL.

 

Thanks, I like the extra hike in power. To be honest I prefer the Supra over the Soarer now. It is a more sporty car compared to the refinement of the Soarer. Although I did my best to remove that refinement when I had her.

 

Looking good man.
I'm guessing you'll have it featured in Jap performance or Banzai soon?

 

wow...i think i liked the sc more, but that supra is hawt.

congrats on the buy...sad to hear the soarer was still less of a performer

 

She will be in next months Jap Performance mag.

 

LOL, I thought that was going to be you.
Looking foreward to it.

 

gorgeous absolutly gorgeous

 

Wow, your supra looks amazing great taste in mods too. How did the soarer engine catch on fire??

 

priceless.......

 

Wow, great looking car. Was the car completely stock when you bought it or was some stuff done already. If so what was done before you bought it? Thats alot to have done in 6 months, not that it couldn't be done in that time

damn I hate you, lol. Can my car catch on fire and then get replaced by a beast of a Supra...please??? Looks tight man.

 

Thanks for the comments guys.


The Soarer blew a piston and shot oil out of the breather system on to the hot manifold and poof up she went.
