This thing is so rad!

holy shit man this looks amazing! i would recommend spacing out the wheels to get a more flush fitment, possibly lowering the whole thing an inch, and then repainting the bottom half that matte black to match the flares. other than that, this looks so good!

I dig this, loved the old dtm cars and this is very dtm lol

Thanks! The paint is the same believe it or not. It all needs a refresh though. I just got the paint to refinish my front bumper, it is in dire need of repair.

In that process I'm planning on repainting the lowers & flares. I've thought about messing around with different color combos but there is a definite balance that has to be there for a two tone to not be tacky.


I also agreed on the spacing, I actually like where the rears are but the front was too sunk. So I did space them out a bit more. I drove the car a few hundred miles for work and haven't had a chance to wash it yet.

just some better shots, i have a gurney flap coming!

I think my next project will be to delete the clutch fan, then mount electric fans to a MK3 supra radiator.





On a more boring note I'm throwing a code, I think I need a new MAF and i'm replacing the fuel filter as well since i'm coming up on 100k.

[Blumagic]

She's looking good!

Really dig how this has come together. I get scared when LS people talk about doing a "performance build" but you're doing great with the execution. Great color too.

Thanks! I do plan to put it on the track, hopefully next year when I can replace these tires and get the upper control arms & some other bushings refreshed.

It still will probably be an auto unless I can get a move up career wise.

Where in Indiana are you?? I’m in Indianapolis/Speedway and really want to shoot some pics of this thing

I'm up in Lafayette. I'm planning on going to cars & coffee in Indy this upcoming weekend though.

Be forewarned, The exterior is far from perfect. Until I have all the mechanical bits I want, I just call the roughness character.

Did a little more boring work, spark plugs & wires as well as cleaned the TB and intake manifold



I checked the rest of my control arms and found another seized bolt on the toe arm so i said F*** it and got the rest of the Godspeed arms.





I also installed the SC Techno Classic endlinks. Which are really nice, i wish I would have talked to them before buying the superpros for the front.




While I was waiting for parts to come in I retrofitted my headlights with projectors. I just took a chance with the fluted lenses but the beam pattern is decent enough, plus the black housings just look tough!

I did this for ~$70







Don't mind my janky alignment here, i've fixed the toe a bit lowered the rear a tad and it is going in for a legit alignment in the morning.

[Blumagic]

So I went to get an alignment and they told me my LCA was bent, I waited around after hours until ~8:30 pm. The car went in drivable came out virtually undrivable after just a front alignment. The toe in is so bad the tires smelled wh


so I got some godspeed adjustable camber arms, cut my losses and figured I'd take it back to my normal alignment shop that knows what they are doing. I thought I'd finally made a cool contact out here that was good with custom stuff without a million lectures or questions. Well that bit me in the ass.


Only to find out that the bolts were seized to the sleeves on both LCAs and in the process one of my endlinks stripped out. I'm testing out some adjustable SC400 ones.





just missing driving it right now, I'd definitely like to get some high radius metal flares in the future.

[Blumagic]

The fronts are on! It needs some alignment tweaks but its getting there.
