okay! got my brakes fitted last week, loving them so far.... much more confidence in them was ripped off for fitting but hey-ho, its only money! got a few pictures for you all!

i was never cut out for being sensible.... not a bad idea!

well this is what I was thinking about keeping it as stock as possible.... was thinking of going for a Chis Wilson SMIC hence why it was more pricey but it also rated for more horsies than the Whifbitz one, so should be fine if I decided to go single turbo I do love the look of a FMIC though, makes the car look menacing, decisions decisions

got my car booked in at SRD next month for BPU... i have some decisions to make, weather to spend £1000 on an uprated SMIC and keep my front aero or get a FMIC and get a different lip... hmm also, TTC has been brought up in conversation, is anyone running TTC? and what do people think of it? what do people think should i go just Full BPU or Full BPU and TTC?

Got the car booked in to get my Big brakes fitted on the 19th so I shall be counting the days until they are on [GRIN][/GRIN] this does mean however that the OEM big brakes that are already on my car will be up for sale soon!

yeah they sit nice, do you get any issues scrubbing over bumps?

See, yours looks good, I just want mine to be functional and look good But I recon if I go for ET35 the front will look weak!

Do you wheels sit flush on the front? I'm worried if I got for an 8.5 ET35 they will sit too far back, Don't really want to waste even more money on wheels than I have already! Car looks lovely btw (I'm jealous you have volks, they one of my all time favourite wheels)

after a couple of weeks, I decided the car didn't quite have enough grunt so i ordered myself a Catback exhaust for the car, i opted for the 4" titanium from Whifbitz, who doesn't like a blue tip?? got a couple pictures while i was fitting it, and few of it on the Car.... was very easy to fit and did the job myself from start to finish in about half an hour

thanks man! all of my friends are amazed it's a 20 year old car!

I shall be there!

So, the first modification I did was to get rid of those horrible looking stock wheels, having already ordered a set of big brakes from whifbitz i knew I needed to go up to atleast an 18" wheel after spending weeks and weeks looking at potential choices I decided upon a set of Rota Grids, i was torn between white or matt bronze and after many people told me how much they regret buying white wheels i decided upon the bronze i was going to go for 9.5 fronts and 10 rears so I could have the concave style all round, Rota have recently released a new shade of matt bronze, upon placing my order and waiting 3 months for the wheels to arrive they told me that the wheels i had ordered didn't actually match in colour :/ they gave me the option of upgrading to 10J all round at no extra cost or cancelling my order, stupidly i agreed to take the 10J I went for a 235/35/18 front and a 265/30/18 rear, not i kinda regret my decision as the amount of stretch up front is not ideal i have to park my car on a kerb at night which sucks because ive managed to nick the wheels twice (with full lock on) because of the amount of stretch.... im now looking to get another set of grids for the front, this time a 8.5J ET30 (as opposed to a 10J ET35 They poke 14mm) the dude a Rota said they only have the 8.5J in in a ET35 which would tuck under more than desired, so i'm a little undecided on what to do? does anyone else on here run rotas? what size and offsets have you gone for? despite the many issues, i love these wheels they look awesome on the car and the colour is stunning in person, goes really well with the white Finally, Piccies!

loving this build! just flicked through it all! how do the brakes fit with the XXR's? i almost bought a set but I didnt think they would clear my brakes... i still need to fit them, but ive got 356mm K-sport front and back to go on! how are you finding them so far? much better brake feel?

I think pictures are always quite flattering, the front bumper definitely needs doing as the respray that was done when it arrived in the UK was of a very poor quality... I probably could have done a better job with a couple of rattle cans from Halfords I'm thinking of going for some Tein super streets, thats what ive been recomended by garage D.... they are only a stones throw from my house! yeah, i was planning to buy a new set from whifbitz either this month or next month, should make the front end look a bit cleaner!

So at the moment I'm undecided at the direction im going to take with the car... I got it imported from Japan with the help of Jurgen at JM Imports with every intention of keeping it bone stock like i bought it, well that plan lasted for all of five minutes as while I was waiting for the car to arrive from Japan I had already spent a few thousand pounds on various things from Whifbitz! But hey, that gave me loads of fun things to look at while I waited for the car So the car arrived in the Uk in August and i Picked it up in October... I asked Jurgen if he could do a couple of bits with it while he had it, the two main things being re-trimming the front seats in leather and the other being de-restricting it for me. So the Spec when I picked it up was as follows: Stock Everything! It has the RZ Aerokit and Active front lip Manual 6 Speed Twin Turbo Greddy Turbo Timer 78,000KM on the clock 17" stock wheels Stock Big Brakes I'll try and keep you guys updated as I continue working on it my plans for the car are somewhat unclear at the moment, haven't decided if I want to stop at BPU or go for uprated twin turbos some day... only time will tell! this year i intend to: Fit coilovers uprated brakes (already bought) New headlights Respray (whole car if budget allows) BPU now for some pictures!

added you too! yeah man, let me know when there's a meet and i'll head down with you! havent been to any meets yet

I've got some Matt Bronze Grids on it at the moment! they were actually 17's as the car came with the UK big brakes i'll probably get a thread posted in the projects section so I can show my progress

man, this supra is beautiful. I hope its not rude to ask but what sort of price did it cost for a windows out respray? I want to get mine done (in the same colour it already is) just to clean it up and get it looking 100% Pete

Hi Guys! I spent many months stalking various supra owners until I finally bit the bullet and put a deposit down at JM Imports back in June, Finally managed to pick the car up in October, and I have to say I've barely stopped smiling since I picked it up! [GRIN][/GRIN] It's a Twin Turbo Six Speed and it arrived in the UK with 78,000Km on the clock, I'm in Hertfordshire if anyone is local give me a shout! I post loads of Stuff on Instagram if anyone uses that? my name is @WhiteJDMSupra on there if you're interested Anyway, enough rambling here's some pictures!
