Thanks man, it is an Apex-i N1 Turbo cat-back that I had on my MKIII Supra a long time ago. Now it is basically and axle back, because from the axle up it is all custom mandrel bent exhaust....lol
And it is a world of difference to drive, I lined up with a buddy that had a auto SC400 and I nailed him off the line and slowly walked away gear after gear. Then we did some 40mph pulls and I left him, but when we got to 60 and up he started having the edge. Gas milage is actually a bit better...
The kit I purchased was made by Bullet Cars out of Australia, the W58 is from a MKIV Supra, I had bought a MKIII originally from a fellow member but it was too short to fit in the factory shift location, the drive shaft is a hybrid one peice with the front half of a MKIV for the W58 and the back...

I know alot of guys that simply say "F" the GS400, SC400 and many other 1UZFE powered Toyota/Lexus cars simply because they never were offered in a five speed manual. Well I have good news, you can easily turn that lazy fuel efficiant V8 auto into a torquey and very fun V8 five speed manual. If...
Good point RazoE, and if im not mistaken that Tom's Supra makes 500 or more HP because its in the GT500 class and not the GT300 class. So you can get some impressive numbers out of that motor its just not good for day to day drive, oh and youd have to make quite a bit of green to get those...
I was on the way then my HG blew....hahaha maybe thats why the guy never showed. even though our cars have good numbers and not too bad weight, thats the A70s biggest downfall, reliability. if its all done right good cooling system aluminium rad and MLSHG with head studs then you can have...
Well i mean i see what your getting at but it sounded like a comparison.....The main reason why supras dont launch well at the track is bc its some spoiled kid that just got an aftermarket shop to do a swap in it and slam it then decided...now is a good time to tear the crap out of my car...
These came in through the dealership i worked at last year Toyota of Henderson. A guy bought them for his Celica GTS and never paid the rest of the bil,l with harness sliders and seats they where over $1,100. I waited a year to clame them, then perswaded the parts manager to let them go for $100...
Its awesome playin a race game bc it feels like im in my car. especialy in GT4 when i use my red MKIII(just wish it had the 678HP that one has) if i get a wheele and some pedals itll be even better.
Here's a shitty pic of the TRDs in my car. sorry my first digital camera sucked.
ran a wall adapter to a 400watt capacitor and just rigged power to ground to all posatives and negatives. thought about putting a lexus ass warmer and cooler in it......but thats over kill....as if all ive done so far wont.
