Hi, are these still available? Was any arch work required to get them to fit?

Due you think the damage to the block could be bored out?

beautiful

Just read this whole thread, wow, the ups and downs are unreal, really glad you’ve decided to keep it and carry on though, have you had the arches rolled to fit those wheels?

Very nice always loved aristos

Pmsl it is an auto but only got it 4 years ago, was going to break it, but didn’t have the heart to

3k is double what I payed for my car lol

How much would you want for all of the aluminium engine bay pipes?

Very nice, what are the specs on the wheels?

Brackets for the strut brace are now back from the powder coaters, will be weekend before I get chance to get them on,

So I purchased my supra in 2016, I replaced the fuel feed, return and front to rear brake lines as they were all leaking, then pretty much did nothing with the car for a year other than replacing the radiator. cut to 2018 and the car managed to make it to Jae where I met a few members from here, sadly that was its last outing and has been pretty much stood since then, during the first lockdown I decided to pull my finger out and start actually doing something with the car other than just walking past it and dreaming. So here goes firstly the car as I’ve been finding out is actually quite well equipped, has the active lip, lsd, the skirts are plastic, 6pot ap racing brakes, rears are now uk spec (changed the night before Jae), the rpm gauge appears to be genuine trd, has the sub and amp, 3” exhaust from the front cat back and an uprated smic. however it does have its issues, so myself and my helper decided firstly the car needs to get through an mot, that way I can drive it to work and work on it there on my Saturdays off, the car had a lot of electrical gremlins so decided to start tracing all the additional wires and sort the rear fogs out, stripped all the boot trim out, removed all the scotch locks and soldered all the joints and hey presto - working fog lights, whilst we were there we replaced the old boot rubber block thingys, swapped out the fuel pump for a walbro unit, cleaned all the carpet and refitted. We then moved up front, fitted a Chris Wilson fuel cut defender, found a wiring issue at the back of the clocks which I hope is now fixed and my cruise control should now work. We have now started the mammoth task of tackling the engine bay, as you can see from the pictures it has been sadly neglected, so replacement element has been fitted to the his filter, the cage securing the element has been repainted, the strut base has been removed and the bar repolished, the feet are currently at the powder coaters, new spark plugs are fitted along with new coil pack clips and rocker cover breather pipes, I have removed the broken hid kits and installed normal bulbs, aux belt has been replaced, I still have tons of parts to fit including timing belt and tensioner and a few meters of vac pipe to replace all the hoses. next on the list is to order a new water pump, thermostat and a intercooler hard pipe kit to replace that god awful hose covered in zip ties and get some elbow grease and start cleaning/scrubbing/evicting giant spiders. Then onto the underside. ps I would love to trace the previous owner and get more info on the car, apparently he was a forum member but emigrated to Australia

Out of interest what supercharger kit were you planning on buying?

Will these clear ap racing 6pot callipers?

What would the oem plastic skirts be worth?

Love them, probably wouldn’t fit over my brakes though
