Been working on the Supra this past three weeks and have yet to finish. Ran out of time so will have to come back another time. For those of you who don't know me from other sites, the car was totally stripped down. No windows except the windshield was on (because years ago, someone got jealous and smash them), all the wiring got taken out, engine torn down for a power build, bodykit installed with molding on plus gonna do some custom work to the rear piece, interior stripped, etc....

I got the engine machined. Installed the JE pistons, Crower rods, crankshaft was prepped. And the head, Ferrea valvetrain with three angle, gonna try the 7mge cams to see how it does first, Jun cam gears. It's gonna be forced inducted by a Turbonetics T66. Got the fuel system in, 5 gal cell, Aeromotive a1000 pump, filter, afr. Too much to list, see pics to see what has been done.










More to come. Have the Precision intercooler, AEM EMS, oil cooler, bodywork, and the nitrous system to do.

Damn so much work. Is that a RX-7 (FB) in the background? I forget what block are you using? The gauge cluster looks pretty darn good. What that huge mess in the center console for? Not sure how I feel about the MKIII tail lights on your car since they're not completely flush now, unless you make the rest of the body kinda conform to it. I like how you made everything kinda one piece on the body.

It's a Triumph in the background. I'm not going with the mkiii taillights anymore. I like them but yeah, it doesn't go with the lines. I'm gonna put the stocks back and smoke them out, or get some jdm ones. I saw some pics of stock ones with clear turn signals. Don't know if they were photochop or what but never seen them again. The body kit is not done yet, still have some custom work to do. The engine I'm running is a 7mgte. Can't wait to see yours done. That's gonna be one sweet ride.

Oh wow, haven't seen many of those Triumphs on the streets and the first one I saw in person not at a show was in the Junk yard. Do you need anything for the triumph in case I see another one in the junk yard?

7MGTE? Nice, how much PSI are you running with? What other plans do you have for the body? What was the funky circuit board with relays in the center console for?
