Picked it up from Southampton Docks Friday.

 

Got to wait a week now while its converted/MOT/registered etc.

 

Drives great! (and yes i will be removing the stickers)

 

Just need to decide where to put the front number plate.

 

i was thinking of putting a stick on plate at the botom as i want to put the toyota badge back on the bumper. (i also need to put some mesh in to protect that huge intercooler) Any sugestions on the legalities & placement on the frot plate?

 

cheers

 

Ian

Thats an interesting air intake setup - filter for each turbo...

 

Nice car BTW.

 

Yea strange setup isn't it!

 

not quite sure what the previous owner thought it would achieve?

 

i will probably be converting back to a standard airbox setup soon but need to find a taker for this setup and also source an original setup to replace it with.

 

The pipe work is all ARC & GReddy btw.

Good to see it's finally arrived Ian :thumbs:

 

I really like the Zeek front bumper very mean looking, I'd either mount the number plate to one side as suggested or fit a slightly smaller one as in this photo.

 

Not sure the Veilside side skirts suit the front bumper, think it woudl look even better with a side skirt that has a straight bottom edge to match the straight angular nose, something like the Top Secret skirts on my car (see link below) or the OEM ones in the photo

:Plug: Just noticed it's got the same ARC IC pipe fitted as I have for sale [thread=39687]HERE[/thread] different BOV though. Someone was asking me what it looked like fitted so thanks for the photo :thumbs:

 

Sorry shameles plug over.... :innocent:

Thanks all for your comments.

 

Nic, yes i agree it would certainly look better with clear indicators, they are on my very long shopping list. Also agree with what you say about the sideskirts although the veilsides do look quite good on it in the flesh.

 

One thing to take off my shopping list is a set of HID's as i just found out it already has them fitted! :clap:

 

I was very impressed with the feel of the car on the HKS suspension too, much better than the standard setup.

:Plug: Ooo... can I do another shameless plug, a set for sale cheap [thread=39863]HERE[/thread]

 

Good news about the HID kit :thumbs: spend the money on a set of UK spec front brakes instead, there is a group buy on at the moment [thread=39541]HERE[/thread], just need 2 more to make up numbers.

 

:mods: I better shut up now before I get in trouble :D

the aerials are sony TV aerials. Ill be taking them off as the unit isn't fitted in the car & it wouldn't have worked anyway.

 

Supra did seem to be the best option after the FTO, couldn't live the looks of an EVO :D

 

Should be able to make the next London meet, let me know when.

Think i might get a square plate & stick on and try all options suggested to see what i like best.

 

I think Ill put a chrome toyota logo on the bumper where it belongs too.

 

Anyone know where i can get an original or good copy Toyota badge via mail order or will i have to go to MR T?
