AWesome on the Twins. Ya boost came on fast witht the stocks. Right know I get boost around 3200 so not upset about that.
Wheels: XXR 962 (have a hard time spending 2000+ on Wheels lol) 18x8.5 front and 18x9.5 rear both 35 offset.
On the dash I actually did a full LED light conversion...
Honestly I found out the car had been resprayed by the original owner (person I bought it from) around 2006. The car is an original 86.5 brown (not mahagany) but the respray is not a dead on match, as I have tried to match it with no luck.
Car will be resprayed again by me in the future...
I did not know there was anyone rebuilding 1jz twins. Issue is they are to small, so on the top end they fall short past 5500 rpm, my engine rev's to 7300, my new turbo pulls the whole way

I contacted them yesterday and they told me a redesigned model should be available within 1-2 months. The radiator itself does...
Lip is correct, it is the Shine Auto S2 for the pre-89 only one they make for it. The 89+ tails lights do bolt right in, you may have to drill two holes for the bolts that go through on the bottom of the license plate holder through the bold, my rear did not have those holes, but it is an easy...
My Supra is running on the OEM 3.73 rear end with OEM clutch type LSD. By the end of the year I plan of having a custom 4-point installed and a bit more angle.
Have not updated this in a long while. Went to the track in May, Willow Springs Horse thief mile, did some grip then let me good pro-am drift buddy go beat on it. Below is some video.

The dyno day was a blast. First off thanks to my best friend, partner in crime and mad tuner Glenn Price (ILLICIT Performance) and Bottle Blown racing for the use of the dyno.
Got to see what my engine was capable of and it definately exceeded my expectations. Description on the motor...
