:) Hey all,

Just heard about these forums through the grapevine..

Im currently building up a 2JZ-GTE powered '88 GA70 Supra, after my 1G engine decided to die.

Cars been off the road for a year now, but is only a week or so away from driving again, only got wiring and servicing to do.

Due to this job cost blowing way over budget, it is basically the only mod ive done so far. (Well nearly done anyway) Unless ive had to do it fit the new engine, its basically bone stock.

So far:
Custom intercooler plumbing (stainless steel)
Custom dump pipe
Custom front pipe

Will have very soon:
Full custom 3" stainless steel exhaust (maybe dual muffs, havent decided)
Big Trust core front-mount cooler (4" thick, all 3" stainless plumbing)
Custom inlet pipe
Aristo gauge cluster (probably) with dodgy surround plate
ill fix this up nicely later but first ive just gotta get her running again
Fairly decent stereo (2x 15" subs, 800WRMS+ amps)
Full custom fibreglass stereo install

Stuff to be done in the future:
Custom door trims
Custom dash
Leather retrim with suede inserts (tan and black)
Big brakes (havent decided what sort yet)
Little bit of custom body work (only minor tasteful changes)
Graphite grey paint job with lots of glassy clear coats

I have almost no pics cos im waiting for the pipework to all be in at the same time. (The engine is out at the moment for a bit of servicing)

Evo? I dont know, the only evo i remember being there was yellow.
(Thats at the mechanics, not actually at my place. I dont really have the time/skills to do the job properly.)
