Look forward to following your progress and seeing more updates, what are your plans for the Supra this year? Best of luck and good to hear from you. Cheers. Pete Plans wise, just to get it out on track a bit more, life is still too busy to consider a competitive racing series, but I plan to take the supra to more shows and events this year too. There is some more refining work to be done and that's just to iron out little niggles here and there. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ManwithSupra Posted May 3, 2023 Author Share Posted May 3, 2023 Here is a little update, the car now has a full metal firewall between the cockpit and the fuel tank. This was an area of concern due to the fact there was no barrier between the fuel lines and fittings and the cockpit so if there was a fuel leak which decided to ignite then a flashover was quite possible. This was in the initial fit up, now its fully sealed and the access panels have high temp seals, so if there is a fuel fire it will be contained in that area, I also have a blazecut automatic fire extinguisher installed on the underside of the firewall should a fuel line or fitting rupture and it decide to go up.. Yes it added some weight, but for the sake of being safe its well worth it. Plus I'll save a load more weight once I change the aluminium flat floor to Aramid (Kevlar) 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mwilkinson Posted October 25, 2023 Share Posted October 25, 2023 That's a good thing. The car is a one off and we will never see the likes of it again. It's as unique, if not more, than the Top Secret Supra or similar. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems not many know about it anymore though, although that's my fault really for not posting in ages etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wez Posted October 26, 2023 Share Posted October 26, 2023 Should take it to the ring and let Misha give it a lap, would give it loads of visibility, I am sure he would be up for it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tyson Posted January 3 Share Posted January 3 In a world of modified cars, it’s getting harder to be unique but this definitely is like nothing else. What a machine! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
