I'll let the pictures speak for themselves, but I will say that the car had some issues towards the end...

It was dismantled and parted out.

At one point it had the Cerumo wheels in one of the photos and a Garrett single turbo (I forget the specs on it) running 25+ lbs of boost, H&R springs, 4" Exhaust, and a ton of supporting mods for the turbo.

It had issues with pressurizing the coolant system (and wasn't BHG), the motor was starting to give from the amount of boost it was running, and, to top it off, the title was in the guy's ex's name and she wouldn't let him have it.

...sooooooo, when all the options were weighed, it seemed better to just let it takes it's course and use to parts to complete other projects (including my own). The original idea was to just raise hell in the neighborhood until the motor blew up, but as of right now we're slapping the head on a 2jz bottom end and throwing it in a different supra. The car will live on in one form or another.
