  1. It is sitting pretty now! Loving the look even more now. Just looking at it and noticed that the side repeaters might be better sprayed up like the front indicators. Just an idea.
  2. Like it pal. Not sure what the tint will give it to be honest but i like the look of the lights now.
  3. Jesus ... look at the shine on that! Good job your not in direct sunlight or would be needed. Unbelievably well polished. As for the black innards of the lights i like the idea. I think a high gloss for the remaining chrome rings not a matt black. STEALTH will have to start calling it the ninja supra
  4. devil in the detail! Another quick one for you. while you had the scuttle panel off, did you clean the area under it as i seem to remember one the list of things i was going to do was sort that out as the paint was starting to bubble slightly (if i remember right)?
  5. Looks very tidy work as ever pal. Quick question is what did you spray it up with? (paint type, colour, base coat, lacquer etc.?)
  6. clean and stealthy yet aggressive. The good work just keeps coming from you doesn't it.
  7. all looking good very good pal. like the tinted indicators too. stealthy looking now. I must admit that i never noticed that part of the rad cap was missing! I know that it was not leaking though. keep the updates coming!
  8. Is this a joke? "Premium horn kit"! Toyota must have been scraping the barrel with this one. lol
  9. just spat tea on my keyboard. CLASS
  10. i don't know if its a good or a bad thing but its not painful. Only time i notice it is when its cold and i pick up something heavy.
  11. I did a few summer placements at a Carbon Fibre company (ACG in Heanor if your interested) and had to lay up and cut pre-cured and cured carbon fibre all the time. Again from personal experience make sure you wear gloves and eye protection. I still have a chunk of carbon fibre (and epoxy) jammed under my right middle finger nail. Been there for nearly 10 years now. I can still see it there and have a nice scar also. Anyway, we always used diamond tipped dremmel bits for cutting and trimming.
  12. Nice car and a great thread! Its always more satisfying when you complete your own work on your car. I always find that i end up with a warm smugness after i do something to a car and it works as it should (even if it takes an attempt or 2) Keep up the good work!
  13. If you can get it sitting like that on the new coilovers then it will look brutally good. Personally i would not go for the lip as i prefer the stock look. The only thing i would do to the exterior now would be a TRD spoiler (i have a soft spot for them) If you lower it to there i think you could have a problem with the lip anyway (this is going by the photoshop?!) As ever the car looks amazing! Top thread ... keep the updates coming and i look forward to the NA-T build progression
  14. I would love to see her again pal. The problem will be the following: 1. i could try to steal her back off you 2. i will get depressed at how amazing you have made her and will not rest until i have another supra or 3. physically turn green with envy But seriously. If you intend to take her to some shows/meets locally i would love to turn up and see it. Is all the focus now on the NA-T build or is there some more cosmetic bits you want to do? There is an Shine Auto Carbon Rear Diffuser that would look amazing on it.
  15. These look absolutely immense! Love the look of the wheels and how it sits. Arch rolling is a must for the back though. TOP JOB
  16. these will look amazing on pal. Can't wait to see them on! Black and gold/bronze is the way forward, especially on JDM cars
  17. Always hated that stereo. I thought it stuck out too far from the dash and like you said stuck out like a sore thumb colour wise. I was going to replace it with a double din one and flush fit it. But i could not justify getting a new one when the old still worked properly. good work though. looks like new!
  18. Looks like things are progressing nicely pal. Interior should be progressing nicely and i cannot wait to see your NA-T finished article. Don't suppose you would consider selling it back to me? LOL When do you get the new wheels pal? keep up the good work.
  19. Looking amazing pal. I think it looks great without a spoiler. Maybe just a lip spoiler but nothing big and brash. Loving the progress though.
  20. http://i49.tinypic.com/2d8km0h.jpg This pic is brutally nice! The deep shine that you have managed to get from 19 year old paint is incredible pal. That is some mighty fine detailing work that you do.
  21. Even though they started to fog up, they look awesome! You will also not have to polish the crap out of them to keep em clear being UK spec glass ones. GOOD WORK!
  22. These wheels are well sort after m8. Lightweight, forged wheels are worth more even with some kerbing. I would say £500 min.
  23. Any more progress on this Rich? Not heard anything for a while and seen you are swapping out the exhaust. Is this in prep of the TT lump swap? Need updates, massive withdrawal and i miss her!
