Thats all by now! Only a year since I own this car.

Impressive work for just a year my friend.

Great work and a nice list of goodies for sure. Have to ask what’s next, or are you planning to run it like this now for a while?

Lovely build and hope you have many miles of happy motoring ahead.  

Cheers.

Thanks Pete,

 

For me the next steps are:

 

- Finish the engine

- Run the car as it is till I legalize all the new components in Spain, exhaust, seats, front lip, and sidelips blablabla (Here you need to legalize everything)

- Install the link and test how much power we can output.

- And finally if I want to complicate my life, go single and aim for 600-650hp quick spool Supra, dont want a laggy car like the other time.

Seats ready!

 

Napa Leather with gloss black Recaro stitching.

Today I get reunited with the car, what a feeling, hybrids only at 0.9 bar are mental hahahaha

[SupraTRD_MK4]

Hey there Krimi, well done on the engine resto and the interior. Loving those seats. Any ideas excatly what the company did on the turbos? Want to conduct the same here in my country but unsure if they would know what all needs to be done except perhaps bore the housing and change the wheels for billet ones and probably port and flow the inlet and outlets of them?

Keep it up. Nice to see this is an RZ with a targa roof. Then again, most of them LHD supras had that option if it was indeed a targa. My 2c worth :-)

[7677243]

Nice job Krimi, I've just done a similar scale build and can  appreciate the attention to detail. Great job! Enjoy that, a fun decade of trouble free hooning ahead

Curious on what you did to restore the door cards. They look great. Did you remove the full skin and start from there?

Hybrids was made by a guy here which is specialist in turbochargers and heads, he also have flowmeter and all that stuff, so perfect work, I feel like the car is a little bit laggier than stock, but it holds boost to the redline like a motherf***er, around 1200€ work.

 

My first intention was this! To build an RZ LHD hahaha Honestly all this changes worth every penny.
