Well, my first car was an 89 Supra n/a auto. I think thats about when I joined here. Then I got tired of all the problems it was having and bought another but this time 5spd turbo. After finding out it had a bad fuel pump after I bought it I went and got it fixed at toyota (700$ later) and thought to myself "I'm not making enough financially to keep going on with this." so I sold them both. 2 and a half maybe 3 years later I bought back the turbo 5spd today and don't exactly know if I made the right decision but its okay, I have a daily now. haha So here are some pics of it. It needs a LOT of work but I'm willing to pay the price this time.

So as you can see its a peice of work. As far as I can tell it does have a bhg (I pointed to where in one of the pics), the clutch needs to be replaced, and it needs a new pumpkin as this one sounds like an airplane taking off. What has changed since I sold it is a new turbo 57trim, new rims and tires, new brake pads and rotors, 2 new rear calipers, another fuel pump, and a larger fmic. It has some rust starting on the passenger side door that I've noticed and will most likely be replacing. The dashboard is cracked to hell underneath the dash cover, so I hope to find an uncracked one from someone maybe parting out their car:naughty: Also with the interior I plan on redoing all of it and changing the color to black. Future plans may or may not include a jz series motor I havent figured that one out as of yet. haha Well, that's it for now. Hope to be posting up a build thread soon.

glad to have you back just take your time. No need to rush anything but always have forward progress even if you take a step back once and awhile :)
