think my bump stops are original? getting ready to put konis in but not sure what springs yet. Tanabe or Eibach, might stick with stock and rock the 4x4 look.

Not anything crazy but someone was selling these on a facebook mk3 supra page so I picked one up since the hole where my wiper use to be was covered by a sticker for the last I think 3 years lol

Cover looks very nice!

Just out of curiosity, why did you remove the rear wiper?

Should only be 2 reasons... weight (cuz racecar) or its broke, not replacement. (Of course there is just to shave the exterior a bit... but I believe in functionality... although I have never used mine.)

Yeah it wasn't working and leaking through the seal, I originally intended on putting a new seal and motor in but decided to just take it off I also like how it looks without it, I rarely drive the car in the rain since I have a second vehicle

Plus if I decide to get another I can

(never looked into why it wasn't working could have been wiring or the water getting in that damaged the motor I still have it I should probably see if it even works or if im getting power to it lol)

Welp I finally found my power steering leak and it's the pressure hose hard line right where it runs next to the oil pan and judging from what I have found from searching it seems like a bitch to replace. Can I just remove the power steering belt and drive the car like that until I replace the hose?

Hard line? Like the metal part that the rubber hose slips over and a clamp holds together? Or are you talking about the high pressure line?

The high pressure line, I saw it when I was under the car looking under the oil filter area and I saw power steering fluid coming from the hard line that runs down there and I followed that to the pressure hose.

It's not that bad to replace. I did a write up on replacing it a while back when I did mine. It's even easier to replace if you go with the braided line from driftmotion I believe.

It's really easy to replace. It'll make life a lot easier if you remove the steering rack bracket on the passenger side to give the line some room when you pull it through the back towards the turbo. Took me 15 mins to replace mine. The first time I did it on my 87 NA in 07 it took me 2 hours LOL, don't ask me why but it was also my first car and it was the first thing I had to fix on the car.
