Some updated pics of the engine bay. Car is on the road and has a very conservative tune. Waiting for funds and time to have my tuner come down to actually tune the car.

End of June we were getting ready to take our 1st trip to the track. I was out trying to figure out how to launch my car when out of the blue carnage out of no where!

At 1st thought I had broken the dif from the way the car was driving. I ended up dropping it 1st. My subframe was cracked so time to spend more money
What I started with out of my parts car

Got the car back together and decided to put a 4.30 lsd I had lying around from my 87 n/a sport in the car. Drove the car for probably a month with no issues. Then My Aeromotive A1000 decided to fail.

Mach up of new fuel pump.

Shortly after we got back we decided to hit a local 1/8th mile track. Here's a few videos of us running
[video=youtube_share;IVFmnK0fhbc]http://youtu.be/IVFmnK0fhbc[/video]

There was a fast four import event at the end were they take the 4 fastest imports and run them against each other. I took home the win :icon_bigg. Not extremely proud with the times I ran the car went 8.3 @ 92mph. Car just wouldn't hook with the tire i had. Also later found out the 4.30 lsd that was in the car was over spun and only putting power down to one wheel.

Shortly after going to the track I was at my peak frustration with the car and ready to part with it. I put the car up forsale and found a guy in omaha who was interested in trading his FD rx7 for it. Long story short the car wasn't running he was working toward getting it running again finally after 3 month I decided to keep the car and got over my issue with having an automatic in the car.

Since then I've picked up these beauty's :). I have yet to pick the matching door panels will be doing so at the beginning of Jan. There really dirty working to getting access to an extractor.

I put the 3.91 out of my car originally back in for now car hooks even on the street alot better :). I weighed the car half tank of gas full interior including floor mats. It weighed 3580lbs 2 years ago. The car weighed in at 3440lbs really happy!

The car is currently hibernating in the garage. I need to get my v8 rx7 finished and liquidated 1st before I start on the supra again.

You ever want to get rid of the recaro interior let me know. I had a complete set in my 91 including the door cards and loved it. Now you are making me miss my favorite car. Very nice.
