My 1993 NA Aerotop

So I finally got round to it!

 

I've owned my supra now since August.

A 1993 NA Auto Aerotop in Renaissance Red.

 

Before I had even bought I said that bodywork was not an issue as I planned to respray the car anyway, but other than a few marks here and pink door handles she's not so bad.

The important thing for me was that the auto box was silky smooth and the engine purred and I instantly fell in love. She was fitted with a Torsen LSD which was also a bonus!

 

She's not to everyone's taste as she's Is completely factory original but I see it as a blank canvas.

 

Below are some photos of how she looked when I bought her

Then Is had my way with her and have her some much needed love

 

And she cleaned up beautifully!

 

Since then I haven't changed much due to the inbound winter but this is how she looks=]

 

I also let her stretch her legs a little bit around Curburough sprint circuit and so the back was stripped for the day...

 

All back together for now though!

 

Plans for the spring are:

 

18" Ruff racing alloys w/chrome lips

 

Custom Made John Ashley Exhaust

 

Respray in Lexus ISF Ultra Blue

 

Leather retrim on standard seats

 

And a few other bits and pieces.

 

I met a few of you at hooters and your a great bunch! Will look forward to meeting many more of you at supra pod!

Ran at Santa Pod today.

 

I was massively surprised but Nothing I raced got off the line quicker than me but I was beaten to the finish by an Ibiza Cupra running 250bhp.

 

 

I ran a 15.5 1/4 at 89mph

 

I didn't think this was bad for a totally stock NA Auto.

I'll post some photos up later!

Been a while but managed to finally get my carpet and headlining dyed black.

Would of bought black ones but I don't think they ever did a Aerotop with black headlining.

 

Looks good anyway!

 

 

Waiting for car to go for respray now:)

Cheers for the kind comments chaps!

I used some black fabric dye from a company on eBay called "valeter's pride"

 

Just applied it using a trigger bottle in small even coats

 

Next is the respray then looking to source a GTE lump to drop in the old girl!:)
