Westy Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 Car is really coming along...think I would change the mesh in carbon bonnet to black instead of silver, but still looks good! Good choice changing the mesh to black Mario! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mario Posted February 22, 2012 Author Share Posted February 22, 2012 (edited) I love everything but the bonnet. Me like the wheels my friend but everyone knows that already lol Thanks mate, the bonnet will be exchanged for an UK spec bonnet in the near future if I can find one in perfect condition.

Mario Posted March 4, 2012 Author Share Posted March 4, 2012 Nice Mario...APR carbon plate is the one I have! Improves the bay no end!Like the billet rad clamps and TRD oil cap!Cheers Westy, yes the APR carbon plate really improves the looks no doubt, I was considering an SRD cooling plate but couldn't decide, in the end I took the APR:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mario Posted March 6, 2012 Author Share Posted March 6, 2012 Nice project Mario - I'll be interested in what you think of the Kumhos. Great wheel choice Dan, I took her for a spin today to see if I wanted some adjustments on the allignment. It's 3 degrees down here but dry and didn't warmed the tires, lots of wheelspin in first and second gear and i'm just bpu. Maybe the tires need a warmer environment, or they just aren't that good. Well will check again when she is completely ready, the temperature will be higher too in a few weeks of time. I'll let you know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mario Posted March 6, 2012 Author Share Posted March 6, 2012 The eu/uk-spec bonnet is still in the paintshop, also the left rear spat is in de workshop as it had a tiny mark on it, I took her for a spin today to get familiar with the new allignment and if I had some they çould still redo the allignment before delivery. But the ride went all smooth and had no complains. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mario Posted March 7, 2012 Author Share Posted March 7, 2012 dandanWhat a beauty! Thanks Dan, Ian WI've only looked at the last page and it has very likely been said already but, those wheels are stunning. They make the car for me already Thanks Ian W, yes that is very true, she should have been ready last week, but a last minute recall about the vis racing c/f bonnet which got exchanged last minute it caused some delay. I'd rather wait two or three more weeks and have the bonnet I like then take the supra home with the c/f bonnet that I actually like but not enough . lexmk4very nice wheels look perfect in the rear arches Thanks Lex!

Mario Posted March 7, 2012 Author Share Posted March 7, 2012 A small clip I took yesterday to give an impression on how the fronts (10'' with 275 tires) fits within the stock front arches. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
