That Supra guy annoys me.

Too much chrome, Too much Auto. and he said he wanted to drive it daily. Then proceeded to build such a car that would never be driven daily, as he'd be too scared it might rain or there might be dust on the road or something. Who builds a performance car with an auto gearbox unless you're stalling it up at the strip.

AND he spent all that money under the hood, kept it auto, and didnt install a ratchet shifter.... tool.

He chromed the turbos for **** sake. lol.

Yeah i find the chrome disgusting to be honest. The only thing slightly chrome should be cooler piping. And I would have gone with the 6 speed as well, but different strokes for different folks. He probably finds it easier to just stall it up, not that he has driven it in two years

He didn't install a shift kit or a stall kit though...

probably because he's too precious about cutting up his interior a little bit.

It's a nice car, but who the **** does a resto (or buys another complete chassis) on a late 90's import...

and I dont like the power curve on his sequential setup, It doesn't boost right.

He'd get raped by the cops thats for sure, pull that thing over and take one look under the hood and it would be permanently off the road, not to mention the fact that no insurer would touch that with a 40ft pole.

Matte black under the hood, makes it look factory.
Silicon blue pipe joins only where required, paint black if possible.
Even matte black your cooler.

@Inz

He didn't have a shift kit or anything in it but he had it set up such that it changed when it hit peak power. And he said the box was pretty much bulletproof. I still would have gone the six speed though. And he even chromed the bellhousing

@D-.

Matte black for stealth modez. But the minute the police see a supra on the street they are gonna be all over it. Well in SA anyway >_<
