I'm scouting for the editor, he's looking for well modded cars to feature.

If you have an awesome vehicle, or known someone who does please get in contact with me!

With a little photoshop, you're welcome to my not-so-awesome car. It is a pretty awesome definition of sleeper but you decide.

If by well modded cars you mean a race car done right and not a riced out show car I know of a few.

Import Tuner doesn't like riced out cars, or "me too" cars... Maybe I'm just going to the wrong meets...

I'd say turbotagteam? Cleanneon even? But then I'm more towards the clean/sleeper look

Would you be interested in a 90 CRX, Wings West body kit, no engine mods, setup for sound competition? Some would consider it a "riced out show car" but I don't think it is riced. See my garage pics and if you want more let me know.

Import Tuner only does japanese cars... they save the euros for EuroTuner, strangely enough.

And really, in order to not clutter the thread, please dont reply here if your car is not undoubtedly magazine quality. We're talking seriously elite here...
Most of the responses have been pretty genuine, just want to make sure thats how things stay.

Showoff03LS
01-12-2009, 11:30 PM
no i mean i never see imports that are FROM the the US in the mag , half if not all of the feature cars are from japan. and the fact that they dont ever feature at least just one Domestic car, but it wouldnt make sence then to put american cars in a import mag.

added a pic of the motor. I have a new catch can since that pick and upgraded to a comp turbo triple ball bearing turbo.

the best time the car has gone with the old setup,cast manifold and t67 turbo, was 11.42@129 with 23psi on drag radials

I have gotten it to the track yet with the new setup,tubular manifold and 74TBB and ET streets. so when it gets warmer 30psi and we will see what shes got.

That's definitely a decent Supra, but it's very stock looking compared to the usual assortment of cars found in the mag...

yeah, I'm a fan of clean stock lines. there is only one kit I would consider and that is the TRD widebody, but being as this is a hardtop and very rare I didn't want to mess with it. clean all business is my taste. not much in the engine bay is stock ;). thats where the money went :supz:.
