Vixens build thread!!!

[MKIII VIXEN]

Thanks Ryan for starting this thread. Now I can go off topic in my own thread.............:biglaugh: ........I really have never thought of starting one for my car. It has been such a long process to get it where it is. All the credit must go to Jay, I just stand back point fingers, ask questions, and tell him what I want next. The things that are done to my car are my chose, but he is the muscle and the know how behind the build.
A little history: We got the car from Wisconsin. It was advertised as in excellent condition...NOT. When it got to our house it was leaking oil from everywhere. We had a rebuilt motor ordered and sent it to a shop in Birmingham. It took them 6 months to do a "two week" job. :3d_frown:
We got the car home and it was losing transmision fluid from somewhere. Jay did much work trying to figure out where it was going. I blew the turbo seal. The professionals that installed my motor crossed the oil and transmission lines and I was pumping transmission fluid into the motor. Too much fluid ..something will blow.
My Ct26 was rebuilt and upgraded, and the transmission was rebuilt...started slipping. We changed the air intake, changed the exhaust, added a manual boost controller, new tires and rims, new paint, and I was addicted...:evil2:
Recently I have some parts donated from a very nice man who decided to go 1JZ. I now have 550 injectors, a Garrett TO4E, a new 255 Walbro fuel pump, and Lexus AFM. My tail lights have been tinted by a wonderful young yankee who came to visit,:icon_bigg and I have clear side markers. ( I installed the rear ones....yeah me):biglaugh:

I know this post was a little long, but I thought I would try to bring it up to date.

Thanks for all the comments so far. Sorry I didn't post last night but I was sleeping while all of this was coming together.

Vixen, I think you have one of the nicest Supras on this forum. It's so clean and I like that it looks mostly stock on the outside. I'm also a sucker for all white Supras... *drool*

Thanks! I really like the look of a stock Supra. To me, they just don't need alot of dressing up. It looks good stock and appears to be less of a threat that way. I really don't mind when people under estimate me, it makes thing more fun.................:evil2:

Vixens car is definitlely beautiful. It just looks good all the way around. And sorry to say it but I thinks it looks hot with the white saw blades. I remember when I was in college and I saw my first MK3 with the white package. I was in love. And my supe was still pretty new then. Im glad to see Vixen has her own thread finally. Congrats Vixen!!

She does look like a southern belle...

Love the vids... Keep the pics comin... And the vids...

 

[suprahero]

Lance, are you going to be there all day or what? I read the planner and it said that they'd be leaving for the next city at 9:00 a.m., but I was probably reading it wrong.

I've actually had the honor of riding in Vixen's white Supra! This has been my consistent favorite white Supra on SM - the wheels are perfect. but I had no idea that it looked that rough when you guys got it. To think I even thought of running against Vixen's white beast for ROTM a few months back...

Here's what it looked like when we first bought it.......

After a lot of blood sweat and tears from her loving husband, it now looks like this.

I'll try and find some more pictures of her car and post them up.

umm you do know he's kidding, right?

Kurt knows that I'm kidding because he knows I hardly ever post serious stuff, plus he happens to be a genius and knows everything.............:biglaugh:

 

[Shytheed Dumas]

I have yet to see a single serious post from Jay - the ultimate master of sarcasm/tongue-in-cheek humor - so yup, I knew he was joking. Plus I know the whole story of buying the car from a guy in Wisconsin. I am a genius... really!

 

[mk3forme]

lol ok. I guess you got me huh??
