That's my favorite also. But, I think I'm going with the Kinesis wheels intead, just because they look better all around. The equips look great mostly from this angle.

You misinterpreted, I was laughing at how navy blue is actually candy purple. Unless you ordered purple and not blue. Whatever, this car is gonna be awesome. :)

no no no no, don't change things around now. lol.
I did say in my post that it looks dark blue, not sure why, but in daylight they are candy purple. I wanted them a bit brighter, but that's what the guy had.

Sup fellas,

Long time no post...Sorry about that. Here's an update for ya!

Calling Mr. Troll!!!! Better get that camera ready Brian. Car is almost done. Maybe a couple more days yet!!

Teaser #1 - Engine Bay. Most of the holes were plug welded. Can't really see it yet. Is really dirty and not polished. Real life, this thing looks like a mirror!!!

http://supraholic.brinkster.net/supr...3036_SMALL.jpg

Teaser #2

This is inside the shop so the camera is not picking up everything due to lack of light. Should look better on camera when is out in the sun light.

Teaser #3 - Rear Axles

Here are the axles. I was not kidding when I said everything going in this is car is either NEW or REBUILT.
http://supraholic.brinkster.net/supr...3042_SMALL.jpg

http://supraholic.brinkster.net/supr...3050_SMALL.jpg


Teaser #4 - Door handles with shaved locks. I won't need the locks to open the car anymore since I have the lexus Engine Start/Stop Push button system integrated.

Ok, so by now you know I suck at taking pics, but at least this time I snapped a few outside.
