Hi, unlike most people on this forum I don't own a complete car :( ... however I own lots of a Mkiv Supra thats being installed into another car I'm building :)

 

I'm using all the running gear, suspension, brakes and of course the engine in the new car so I've already found the forum a great source of info!

 

Cheers,

Al

This one's not mine! but one day it'll look something like it...

 

Hi and welcome. Interesting project. Is John 'mad greek' Forakis still producing these kits? He used to be based within walking distance of me but I haven't seen him in a while.

Thanks all, the engine is mated to a Porsche boxster 5 speed, just a minor problem of connecting the Porsche box to the Supra hubs to sort out! and a blown turbo on the engine [ANGRY][/ANGRY].

The car will be road legal although I intend to build to track quality so if I get the nerves to really go for it I can...

 

I'll post some pics once I get organised.

 

and Miguel I don't know how much John Forakis is involved these days. These guys http://www.visionsportscars.co.uk/minotaur/min1.htmlhave the production jigs/moulds etc after Pilgrim went under.

I bought this car ages ago but have only just started to work on it in anger. My other project, (GT40), took a while to finish but thats another story.
