Hi guys n gals,

 

i have finally become a member of the UK supra forums after so long.

Alil about me, my name is Patrick born in Australia but have a Portuguese background. i have been a member on the Supra forums AU for 2 years, i have had my supra for 2 years now i bought it back in feb 2008 and it was an SZ-R N/A with 6speed Getrag box. When i bought it it was in a bad shape, the clear in the paint was peeling brakes were shot and the interior needed some love and also as always needed some BOOST haha..

 

So first thing was a respray i decided todo somet alil different and something i havent seen down on a supra, so decided to go Kandy Brandy Wine full respray. i was really happy with the turn out. Next was 2jzgte engine conversion i had a professional do this cause i had no idea lol. Engine went in with GT Hybrid FMIC, Exedy Heavy duty cluth, Custom cold intake box, boost Gauge and Air/fuel gauge.

 

a few months later i decided to have it dynoed and i made 220kw on 13psi and 554nm of Torque. i was relly happy with the outcome and love it when it comes on boost.

 

Forward a year later i decided it finally needed new brakes and rims so i bought new 4pot front supra brakes with DBA crossed drilled rotors front and back. sorry i dont have a picture of the car how it sits now but ill get a photo up soon.

 

Future mods are:

 

i have been researching into cast manifolds for a single turbo conversion because i believe it helps with throttle response and quick spool. my initial target is 350kw at the wheels or 450-500hp street car.

 

I hope everyone has enjoyed my story.

 

Patrick :)
