You know you're a Supra owner when...
- Thread starter IJ.
- Start date
...you can quote all of your cars specs, but can't remember your anniversary.
...You look at your boost gauge more than your spedometer.
...your time slip says you trapped at 130+ but your 60ft. is 3 seconds.
...you get an empty feeling inside when you can't visit the forum at least once a day or when the board is down for maintanance.
...You peek in the garage every hour just to see if your car is ok.
...you are introduced to new people by your friend as the "guy who owns the supra".
...you make her swallow so as to not stain the interior.
...you see another supra, wave, smile, and for that one moment you both are thinking the exact same thing........damn, that is one sexy car.
...when traction doesn't exsist until third gear.
...when you get your pay check, and the only thing you think about it what mod to do next.
...you just spent all your money on your car that you can't even go out to eat and you don't care.
...you spend 6 hours in thecold finding and solving the boost leak.
...constantly browes vendors' websites and dream about parts you will be getting in few months or so.
...you wake up your whole neighborhood coming back home at 4 am coz your car is just too fuckin loud.
...When you refer to everything in life unmodified as "stock".

You know more about someone else's Supra than your own from watching them build it up step-by-step, breaking it, tearing it down, putting it back together, just to do it all over again.
I think we all know who I'm talking about here

When you pay about $400 to rent a U-Haul and auto transport (with gas and food stops), then get up at 2:00 AM to drive 8 1/2 hours and 442 miles, just so you can get the engine swap done by someone who actually KNOWS what they're doing.
As you're leaving the shop, you pet the car gently, talk to her softly, promise her everything is going to be okay, and give her a kiss goodbye. :wtc:
When you get home and are deeply saddened that she's not home right now.
But damn is it good to be back home.
(I did this today to get the car to Driftmotion for the 1JZ swap)

When you get nervous at any rise in temp hoping its not another BHG.
When friends get in the car and complain about the smell of burning oil and coolant. And you cant even smell it anymore.

SO GUILTY OF ALL OF THOSE!

When your car is 400 miles away being worked on because you "didn't want to f#ck it up worse than it already was."
You realize how hard it would have been to "f#ck it up worse than it already was."
You peek at your bank account daily wondering "Can I afford that yet?"
You have a savings account named "Car Fund."
Your car isn't done yet, and you're already planning "what's next."
