My Supra, some old some new

[Nick 95 6sp]

So I'm a newbie as of a couple days ago and here's some pics of some of my stuff. Let me know if you have questions or complaints

This is from a couple years ago at the Cystic Fibrosis Benefit annual car show at Peddler's Village Lahaska PA --- Josh from Xotic took this pic ...hey Josh, I'm not sure but don't you still own me one of these pics that I got as a prize?


From a meet at Ridley Creek State Park ...I'm checkin' out her body kit ;) as you see from the engine bay I was still BPU with stock turbos but with my Veilside wheels that I like a lot:


A close up of when I just received my new Veilside wheels ...did I already say I like them:


Blasting thru the esses at Watkins Glen a couple years ago


At Pocono last year:


In honor of Rocky on top of the Art Museum steps overlooking Philly


I don't have any good pics yet of my new turbo setup on the car, will do that when the weather breaks soon; but here's the turbo kit I got except I got it with a polished Powerhouse Stage1 turbo, this kit is an Induction Motorsports modified Turbonetics cast manifold which they port out and add an adapter to fit the HKS 60mm GT wastegate


Another shot of the turbo kit assembled but again not shown with my polished houseng PHR1 turbo


My PHR Stg 2 fuel system, except I'm using twin stock Supra (Denso) fuel pumps and 850cc injectors:

my edit: OOPS, I JUST NOTICED YOU HAVE A CELICA NOT AN MR2 LIKE I SAID BELOW, but I'll leave the story anyway cause I like to bs a lot.

Thanks, I always liked MR2's, nice compact package and well balanced. You might know an old buddy from NJ, used to go my "MR2Dave" but I'm pretty sure he sold his MR2 a while ago, here's a shot of his car at the Peddler's Village show I think 3 years ago; at that time he was putting over 500 to the wheels and I'm sure could smack down a BPU Supra

I couldn't make it this past year, but I did go a few years before that. But if they do it again I'd like to make it this Summer, nice show and I meet local buds.

hmmm, not sure that would be me. I'm hardly ever on 332/413 since I live down toward Ardmore ...though I work in Waminster and when I drive the Supra to work I have cruised up 263 toward 413 and prolly even down 413 some, but very rarely do that. For my pointless cruising just to get out of the house and look for trouble, I usually go down West Chester Pike Rt3 from Rt 1 to WC and back, sometimes take side roads. Maybe you see AaronS, who is one of the organizers of the Peddler's Village meet (his dear sister had SF and died from that a year or so ago), anyway Aaron has a singled pretty mean black Supra, larger turbo than mine, he lives up near Doylestown and with his wheels it would look sort of similar.

I dig supras, what kind of numbers do expect with your new setup

[empera]

where in the poconos is that? i need to do some circuits

[EIXVO]

Andrew Evolution wheels right? If so $$$$$$$$

Hey what a coincidence! I really like Z06's, too! Thanks, bud. It's a small turbo by "Supra" standards, ~61mm, but I like real fast spool and throttle response, not max top end power. At low boost on 93 oct it's ~500whp; tanked up on C16 at over 27psi it's ~630whp; before the bad weather hit I did a blast down Rt3 and hit over 30psi With my Racelogic traction control, it hooks up ...plus my current street tires are Toyo RA-1's, not great for a hard launch but otherwise great traction. I'm doing meth/H2O spray here very shortly and then I can crank it up to about 25psi on 93 oct full time, maybe even a tad higher, we'll see how the tune goes.

Btw, a couple times a week or more I see a brand new black Z06 passing thru my neighborhood as I'm dropping my kid off at school. Gorgeous car. I think I saw him at a gas station on City Line Ave. two weekends ago vacuuming his car but I couldn't stop to chat with him.

Hey bud, I know you from other forums. How's it going? The Pocono driving events are mostly done by PDA, look at the schedules here: http://www.pdadrivingschool.com/ If I hear of anything else, I'll let you know.

tru dat. But over the long haul, lots of people piss away more money and have nothing to show for it.

Hey, what do you guys think if I had the center spoke area powder coated some kind of black or gunmetal color? I have them off the car now thinking of repolishing the lips and doing that.

Thanks. In person it ain't so "absolute". The track, as well as me driving it as often as possible, all takes it's toll with little micro chips in the paint.

everybody needs some kind of money pit ..house, car, wife, kids ...hey wait, I have all of those pits!

Your setup will be big power numbers, good luck with it. Maybe we'll meet up at a local meet ...or at Fuzion, I get over there once in a while since I live 10min away from Rich's place.

[cburwell]

Nice car! It's not too often that you see a Supra that looks basically stock on the outside. Not to mention, seeing a Supra on a road course is pretty uncommon too!

[dt98gsr]

Car looks very nice, I especially like your choice in wheels.

Just happened across a familiar car. Missed you this past year at the car show. It was our largest turnout yet. We stuffed the lot and had to put people in the parking lot. We most certainly are having it again this year and we will be starting up the planning pretty soon actually.

I will be at Pocono on June 3rd with my MR2 that I just finished up. Trying to convince Aaron to put his car out there as well. We have spent too much time spectating at PDA events and not enough driving them. ;) Aaron recently went to a larger a/r exhaust housing on the T66 so he needs some room to stretch his legs legally.
