SupraJDS's Build Thread **Coilovers on the way** - TriStateTuners.com :: Home of Tristate Auto Enthusiast

History:

Three years ago the first car I ever wanted was a 300zx turbo but at the time I did not have the money to buy one. While dropping off my step brother at his mother’s house I saw my future car in the driveway next store. It was a 1989 Toyota Supra turbo auto. Weeks later the car developed a blown head gasket, luckily my dad’s buddy was a Toyota mechanic and a couple of days later the car was fixed. Two years later the transmission blew and a local transmission rebuilder rebuilt it for me. Right now the car is my weekend driver but I want to road race the car eventually.

Modifications:

apexi intake

Bosche 110 bpv

blitz dual turbo timer

Tanabe exhaust system

The New Rims

Work Miester Sr2 Wheels

Next Modifications:

3 inch Downpipe
Trans cooler
Shine front lip
Paint job

man, those Work wheels are sex. they look like PIAA's. U better not have stock brakes on there though, they will stick out like a sore thumb w/ those wheels on.

at least paint the calipers.

btw.... That "school" (or w/e) in H-town looks familliar... where is it? is it the back of HMS? thats my hometown bro! hit me up sometime.

nice

I like the 89 Supra better than the 89 Mitsubishi Starion I had,
(but I like 3000GT's better)

SupraJDS · 05-31-2009, 04:16 PM

3000gts are nice, my girlfriends brother is the original owner of a vr4 with only 30,000 miles, its super clean. He might be selling it soon too
