I like the engine bay...but to be honest thats about where it stops.

I dont like the color, the body kit, the wheels, or the spoiler. But it's the OP's car not mine, and as long as he likes it. Thats all that matters!

I've seen you a few times at Englishtown, and pics don't do this car justice. I would have gone with the do-luck front bumper over the bomex, but it still looks good. What has your best time with the car been so far? I don't want to post what i saw you run if you don't want anyone to know.

looks sick! i'm not a fan of the front lip or the spoiler but overall great car....i'd hate to think how much all that cost.

I'm still determined to own a mkIV supra before i die, lol.

Sorry to hijack your thread Supraturbo680, but all you guys saying you wish you had one should buy the one with the link in my signature. I know, I know, you don't want an automatic. Well, if you are going to the strip, just upgrade to a Boost Logic built tranny and you'll be set for fun.

If I did that, I'd have to sell the evo and I can't bring myself to do that yet

I don't blame you. The Evo is a much better all-around vehicle. That's why I'm selling the Supra to mod the Evo. But the Supra looks beautiful, sounds awesome, and can be made to go insanely fast in a straight line ( I believe the Supra record is around 7.8sec in the 1/4 ). I still can't believe how nice a body style that came out in 1993 looks today. I do not think it will ever go out of style.

Exactly why I'm waiting a couple (probably more than that) of years so I can have both!

I looked at your ad before - can't believe someone hasn't jumped on your car yet!

Sorry for keeping the off-topic going, back to OP..

Once again, sorry for hijacking the tread. But since I did, I should at least say that your engine bay is imaculate. Very nice
