I said a while ago ide make a thread for this...but i forgot.
Anyway shes aweay for the winter now so i thought ide show you it.
My daily drive/lover.
The story behind this baby starts with me helping a friend restore a ford roadster, and upon completion he asks if i want a supra, im reply i asked how much he wanted, and then it clicked he was offering me a free supra.
In my head i screamed like a girl, but i manned up and said ' yeh dude that sounds awesome'.
When i got her she was a dog, but i loved her, peely red paint, COMPLETLY standard, and off the road for 2 years.
Anyway a few months later and about a grand sunk into her she was road legal.
1st on the list was coilovers, then i ***** red, so i nato'ed her and hence the name came along from a mate, she was forever to be known as the sergeant.
I did other things like stripped her, all sound deadening out, LSD from a turbo supra, strut braces, buckets, harness's, deep dish steering wheel, and i went through about 4 sets of wheels until i found one i liked, only problem was weak offest :/ so spacers are on order.
The engine is a rebuilt 7m - ge, has a fair bit of grunt, but it wasnt enough, so i recently bought a 1jz - gte, so watch this space as she gets sunk in.
Im also starting down the Shakotan route with her but nothing extreme.
She was lower, but to get her on my uncles farm without bottoming out she had to be raised, shame.
Enjoy.
