Fines far from perfect mate missing a big snail under the bonnet for a start lol Of course you can mate, no stress at all.. I'm sure we can find a minute for a quick blast. But the bay is stunning, mine is dismal in comparison, I need bling! Don't suppose you still have a spare intake setup do you? Want to get one painted while the other is on the car and swap them.

Thanks mate she is very much all show and no go, have you seen the NA-t kit just came up on FB, looked at it the first time round. Sure your bay could look shiney very easily. Yeah have the throttle body, ypipe and plenum, only bit I don't have is the runners. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol I'll drop you a message on FB regarding the intake bits mate. Ive been holding off the Na-t thing since our conversation at Fast show. Have been waiting to see if the new kit comes to fruition. All joking aside we could maybe sort a deal out Yeah no worries fire me a pm or FB message. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josh42 Posted September 12, 2015 Author Share Posted September 12, 2015 The car is currently away having the 2step set up and a mild tweak to the map, I've really enjoyed using the car again but next must be some engine bling, replace my speakers and sound deaden the car. Finally a happy supra owner:) For those of you wondering by the way, the W58 is holding up just fine, I've not been easy on it either. I'm running it on royal purple gearbox oil and I think my clutch choice helps massively too so thanks to Tim @ TB developments for sourcing that for me.

Josh42 Posted October 7, 2015 Author Share Posted October 7, 2015 A good friend of mine is an automotive photographer, who has had a couple of features in Japanese performance. He's recently invested in a car rig and wanted to practice on my car, of course I obliged! And here he is in action Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Josh42 Posted October 7, 2015 Author Share Posted October 7, 2015 cool, did he have to photoshop the arm out? I believe so yes, but the guy has fantastic editing skills.

Josh42 Posted October 18, 2015 Author Share Posted October 18, 2015 Finally got round to fitting my TRD spoiler today too. It's a full carbon item, but I've had the side pieces colour coded. I'm really unsure now that it's fitted whether to stick with it or revert back to stock. I know a lot of you guys have voiced your preference on Facebook, but I'm still unsure which way to go.

Pudsey Posted October 19, 2015 Share Posted October 19, 2015 I personally prefer the oem spoiler. Although appreciate the effort with the TRD version, still looks nice with the colour coding. Just stops the curves of the car flowing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josh42 Posted November 9, 2015 Author Share Posted November 9, 2015 Decided it was time to treat the car to some new headlights, as the old ones kept fogging up. So I purchased some brand new OEM facelift headlights, facelift indicators and some other bits. I blame the TurtlesHead entirely. Will get them fitted up just before the NEC.

TBH i prefer the oem on a stock body car but that's subjective. I am looking to get an active lip for mine and I happen to have a plastic RMM with ears on atm. Maybe you would be interested in a swap? Just sayin... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Josh42 Posted November 14, 2015 Author Share Posted November 14, 2015 Here's a few of my car at the NEC Classic Car show. I'm really happy with how the car has turned out and the stand has had huge interest from the public. Huge thanks to all the guys who made it possible for us!
