with the exception of that E-brake handle, that is like THE cleanest soarer i have ever seen. dont get me wrong, i am not negating the E-handle, but the interior is... breath-taking... Excellent find.
Thank you! I bought it sight unseen (except pictures) from Toprank Imports after getting a lot of very positive feedback about their operation. They did not disappoint! The car was very well represented and I’ve been very happy with it.
Good progress yesterday. All I can say is this DM kit is awesome. The only thing it didn’t come with was a way to plug two coolant lines from the stock twins setup (so far). A couple pics to follow.
Finally got the Greddy FMIC kit installed. Just missing the final pipe to the single turbo exit which will get fabbed up once the turbo is in it’s final resting place. I love how hidden it’s going to be. Keeps it looking as stock as possible.
Hopefully getting more work done on Sunday!
Love the engine bay with the TRD strut bar. Got my tinted tails on! Now that it’s running and driving I am taking it to get the rest of the front lights tinted to match the headlights.
A LOT has been going on and I haven’t been updating this. First some progress pics!
Okay I've gotten her up and running for a bit! I'm on stock ECU, injectors, and clutch. I run 14.5-15 AFR's when cruising and get down to 10 or so under boost (11 PSI). It sounded amazing with the downpipe only for exhuast once it hit about 3k but the idle was a little choppy. I got my exhaust done monday and finished my lights getting tinted tuesday. I ran 3" all the way back with no cats and only a muffler, I'll put a couple short youtube clips on here too. I love the way it sounds with no BOV as well. Just got my radium fuel rail, waiting to pick out injectors and such still.
Awww yeyeah glad to see this coming together! Usually not a huge fan of the tinted lights, but that hue on your color looks killer. Keep it up!
Thanks! Yeah I agree with you there, I just had this vision on the tinted lights haha! I thought it was worth it to give it a shot but it doesn't look right with every color. Now I just need to find a way to match the powdercoat color on my wheels for the plastic center caps and I'll be about done with the outside.
Well I finally pulled the trigger on a TT Supra front brake set up. I decided to go with Adam's rotors as well (double slotted). I was planning on powder coat but I figured I would give the G2 Caliper paint a shot so I ordered that as well. My rotors will be here within 3 weeks (made to order). I agonized for a long time on what color to paint my calipers since I wanted something complimentary but also a little showy. I was down to bright green or white and I ended up going with white. I'm going to get the calipers painted in the next week or so and look forward to how they'll turn out. Lucky for me it was time for new front brakes anyway!
So I'm looking at getting a carbon fiber hood. Does anyone have experience with a specific company either positive or negative? Any brand you'd recommend?
