jevansio Posted January 2, 2010 Share Posted January 2, 2010 Cheers Abz, it is a lovely wing, & something I think would actually compliment the lines of a stock car. Pic 2 in the OP shows how well it flows with the broad rear arches of the stock body. I only did this as I thought 30mm looked a bit misleading, I think cars who are running rims which are borderline with the stock arches wouldn't look out of place with these. I run 9J +35 on the front, I'm tempted by them if the OP can find his wheel sizes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stratty Posted January 2, 2010 Share Posted January 2, 2010 A great looking car and the bonnet looks superb after the spray job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamesC Posted January 2, 2010 Share Posted January 2, 2010 I didn't even notice the wings at first, but i do like them. Fantastic work, love how clean it looks underneath now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Callaway Motorsport Posted January 2, 2010 Author Share Posted January 2, 2010 Looking at the timestamps of your posts - there is NO WAY you did all that in less than 24 hrs Lol yeah, Hey gozer looking very sweet dude did you also had the car being treated with tectyl?? Car was treated with anti rust on bottom. I did it myself. But not really needed as car is as hard as a rock from the bottom, so i did a great purchase on this baby. I didn't even notice the wings at first, but i do like them. Fantastic work, love how clean it looks underneath now thanks mate I knocked this up to try & understand the shape of the fender, I'm not sure that it's nay wider than a stock fender (although due to it's design there are parts that are wider) (ps it's a large image so give it time to load) No problem for that jay, i actually find it interesting what you just did. I did compare the stock wings to these ones, and they are quite a bit wider, and like Nick says 30mm each side. I posted the wheels sizes on previous page: 9,5J +12 PS: Thanks for the comments everyone, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Callaway Motorsport Posted January 2, 2010 Author Share Posted January 2, 2010 Cheers 9.5J +12, there's no way mine will fill those PS car looks stunning & those wings are to die for I was very lucky they were on the car when i bought it from japan. at the time i did not realise they were Ridox, but in real life they are even more stunning I would certainly suggest them to fellow supra drivers who like them... very tough quality and painting them is very easy also, they are fabricated and prepared well from factory...

Callaway Motorsport Posted January 3, 2010 Author Share Posted January 3, 2010 Ok, small update, new wheels to replace broken ones on the way. have them ready to order at the moment Should be here in feb. I need some advice on whether i should get a rollcage, It's something i've been thinking about for a while but still not able to make a decision on whether i should or not (to keep the rear seat available for passengers) And just for the rear or for the front? We will not be using the car for circuit work but merely to show off parts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamieP Posted January 3, 2010 Share Posted January 3, 2010 (edited) Cussco rear cage, looks great and the rear seats stay in place. http://s30.photobucket.com/albums/c338/jamie450x/?action=view¤t=cage003.jpg http://s30.photobucket.com/albums/c338/jamie450x/?action=view¤t=green034.jpg Edited January 3, 2010 by JamieP (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marcAB10 Posted January 3, 2010 Share Posted January 3, 2010 intresting build, those front wings really are awesome! Not 100% on the bonnet, it reminds of chavs doing a 'fake carbon' look, also never been keen on the cwest light covers but still great work your doing, making everything look far cleaner. will be good to see it progress.

Callaway Motorsport Posted January 3, 2010 Author Share Posted January 3, 2010 Thanks Jamie, Does look very nice and clean once painted. Is it bolted to the body of the car? or Welded? @MArc. I am still not so sure whether the light covers will go on, i need to check them out on the car first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

j_jza80 Posted February 8, 2010 Share Posted February 8, 2010 Very nice car good luck with the project. Did you get the car from Whifbitz? I'm sure they had a very similar one in a while ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Callaway Motorsport Posted February 9, 2010 Author Share Posted February 9, 2010 No I purchased through powervehicles in Japan, at the time i was having doubts whether to purchase a soarer with 2jz swap or this, in the end i made the better choice.

jihwaan Posted February 10, 2010 Share Posted February 10, 2010 Jamie, that cusco rear cage isnt listed on that site that I could see, dont suppose you know if its been discontinued or something? or am I just blind? The only one I can see listed is "CUSCO Roll Cage 8 Point Toyota Supra JZA80 (steel)" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
