Thanks, bud. If I understand correctly your comment above, that's what I am trying to do. That said, I am unclear as to whether there were changes to the OEM glove boxes on 89+ cars. Even if there were no changes, the two boxes looked at so far show minute cracks in the hinges that will...
Grey OEM Glove Box SORELY Needed!
So, I've discovered my OEM glove box, which fit perfectly, had a previously broken hinge. Today we broke the second hinge, but are gluing it back together if forced to continue to use it. I am looking for a grey glove box complete, with hinges intact and in...
From my WTB thread: "As luck would have it, the NIB HKS MA70 FMIC kit I lost out on is, now, available, unfortunately as a result of the winning purchaser recently totaling his car. My New Zealand MKIV buddy has already taken steps to secure the kit on my behalf. Praise be!! Just waiting on...
I've been collecting parts in an effort to finish up the car and complete the process of making her mine. I hope to have everything in hand before work begins. So far, I've picked up the following parts:
---HKS VPC and 550 cc EPROM
---HKS EVC I
---HKS Turbo Timer (to my knowledge, the...
Thank you for the kind words. I believe there were more clean MKIIIs at SIV than in previous years. More cars as well and, given the builds that are going on, I expect this trend to continue.
Thank you, sir.
The previous owner, Patrick Nail, deserves credit for preserving this car...
Thanks for the heads-up. I, likely, would have never noticed. Will correct this but wondering if it makes a difference? I ask because the car drives so well as is. Would appreciate your input. Thanks for your kind words.
Ken.

Yeah, I polished it up before SIV and it turned out real nice. The car also has a Tanabe downpipe and Tanabe high-flow cat.
As you know, these are quite rare. This one, thanks to Patrick Nail, is in very good shape for its age....just like the car.
Many thanks for your kind words...

Thanks, Jay,
Here are some pics of my car, taken by Dave Tanner, during the Scenic Drive phase of the festivities. SF thread can be found here: http://www.supraforums.com/forum/showthread.php?1035929-SIV2016-Scenic-cruise-Pictures-Videos. Contact Fastturbo on SF and he will help you get...
I posted the following Chronology of Events on SF after getting several PMs about how we accomplished as much as we did in the time available to us. It helped immensely that I am retired, but there were still challenges to overcome, as there always are in projects like this. The Chronology...
Lol, that car had Corky Bell's (CarTech) 7M-GTE single turbo set-up way back in 1990 (along with 550s, various HKS goodies, Trust exhaust, etc.). I don't envision a similar approach with this car, but I will, at some point, wind up installing my HKS VPC/Apexi S-AFC/Fields Harness along with...
suprarx7nut,
Thank you for the kind words. Much appreciated. I'm a real fan of all things Supra and every generation of the car. If my car, and this build, serves as inspiration to you and others, that will be fantastic, IMO. A "resurgence" of the third-generation cars would be fantastic...
This is the man, right here. The one that made it all possible. I can't imagine this turning out the way it has without a seller like Patrick. Clearly, I haven't know him long, but I'd bet my mortgage he's a better person than he is a seller and he's a fantastic seller.
As you might...
Thanks for the compliment. I'm not on Facebook, but it's possible the car may have been. The shops involved are on FB, so that may explain it. Eloquent, huh? This may be a first for me. Thanks again.
Thanks for the kind words. The car was in great condition to begin with, thanks to...
