Well for some reason I have never posted pics of my car here in "members rides". I plan on adding to the thread as time goes by with miscellaneous modifications I have done while building the car. I have built this car to not only be a beautiful show worthy car, but also weigh in as a major threat in autocross and at roadcourse lapping days. Currently my application for Sport Compact Car, Ultimate Street Car Challenge, is in and I remain hopeful that they will find my car to be a worthy contender of that competition.
Enjoy!
Now this car means business. Love it! Awsome work under the hood especially. Looks like you really took heat into consderation, I am in the process of doing the same.
Looks like a beast!!! Gotta love Hardtops especially in Black Dont know if anyone's mentioned it but IMO i dont really like the balloon tires for street....just my opinion
Ah, the hood, its "custom stock"
I didnt like the fitment of any of the vented hoods out there so I made my own out of the stock hood. I have many hours into modifying this thing but in the end Iam very pleased with the results. The idea with the vents was to get some air flow under the hood in order to evacuate heat. Of course having the "intake" louvers over the filter solves the "cold air" problem. Here are some close ups of the louvers.
Always a treat to see your Supra Brian, and it sure is looking great. Nothing like a road racing setup on a Supra HT to get my blood boiling! I'll take the liberty of updating your page on the Supra HT registry with some of these new pics, but be sure to get me a new and complete mod list sometime.
SWEET! I'm VERY happy for you after SOO long being down. Lets see, I think one whole year!! Looks like it was worth it by the looks of your car. You have done some things I don't recognise. like that chromed bar against the firewall? What's that for?
So, last month, Blackie turned 25-years of age. When she turned 20, a buddy of mine suggested I do a retrospective, kinda, sorta on SF. I told him I would, but never got around to it for a number of reasons. Five years on, in the midst of all the discussion about the MKV Supra, my friend...
(Mods please do not delete this thread and suggest searching, as i have done that and the old red supras thread is no where to be found)

10 years later, finally back in a Supra! (updated)
So, I've been into the supra world since about 2001 or so. it was around then that i initially owned an 88T, that eventually was heavily HK$ everything modded. Then after that i owned a 97NA auto for awhile and also a 90T. They were all...
Been probably a couple years since I posted a pic of my Supra. Took this photo today because it was a perfect fall day at my place of business. I frequently drive a Porsche 911 Targa 4 GTS and Lamborghini Huracan but driving the Supra is something special. This car is very raw and it just puts a...
