yea damn i should of went....are you going to get another supra..?

i will get another mk3 supra for sure in the future, but i want to try this build with the fc. i just need a buyer for my car to get it going. after i get the car modded and drift it for a while i might go chaser or mk4. but all that will depend on job at the time and if i can sell my current build to start the next. but i love my mk3 i really dont want to get rid of it, but in order to do what i want i have too. ive had it like 8yrs now or so and has alot of sentimental value. first car i ever bought when i was 16. :( i guess im just living in the "now".

did you lighten your mkiii at all? with the power and your driving, it looks almost deceiving (supra looks light)... might hit you up when tax return comes. I'm thinking of building a road race mkiii, and your drift JZ mkiii is pretty much there - minor tweaking with suspension and maybe more lightening = she may be a road race beast!

the only thing light about it is the empty gas tank lol jk..i stripped the rear interior and thats all i was gonna take everything out but diddnt get around to it..its been too cold outside. but the car handles like a dream for bein like what 3600lbs~ or so. probably looks light because it has a welded diff and stiff suspension..dont have to jerk the car around to get it to do what u want when the diff is welded :). i fell in love with welded diffs..i drove a 2way before in a 240 but i dunno its hard to explain the difference but i like the rigidness of a welded lol. if you are interested when the tax return comes let me know and if i still have it then we will work somethin out...

That's awesome - a 3600 lbs :aigo: car moving like that. How fast would you go through your tires, lol. Not sure if the welded diff is road race friendly, but it looks very impressive drifting - kudos to you!

thanks i appreciate it. you can go thru tires fast but it seems the more power you have the faster you go thru tires cuz you can really get them tires spinning haha
