Actually the TRD logo is a silver metallic sticker that I found on ebay. It ended up working really well too. Also I do need to get a wire brush and some chemicals on that wheel hub to stop the freaking rusting.
How did you make that Supra logo look so damn nice.
Please tell us
Painting my callipers this weekend but havn´t figured out a way to get it look so good as your.
I bought stencils for the logo from someone on this forum a long time ago. The stencils don't include the red line, I just taped that off myself. The stencil is like tape with the logo cut into it. You stick it on the caliper, paint the logo, and remove the stencil. I would worry about the heat melting the glue on a sticker or emblem. I used 500 degree engine paint and it has held up well on the roadcourse. I did the same with my other Supra (with no logo) and after 3 track events and about 25,000 miles they also looked like new.

did you guys just tape over everything but the calipers and go wild with the spray paint, or did you remove the calipers? i would like to paint mine but am not sure how difficult it is to remove the calipers.
Look at my post in the NA section titled "does brake caliper paint really work?" It tells you in there how to remove your calipers. I removed mine to paint them, but I think you can do it either way.
I left mine on the car. Worked just fine. I just didn't paint the back of the calipers which you cant see anyway. The system I used came with a paint brush so it made it easy to do with them on the car. Be sure you clean them better than I did tho...paint doesn't like to go over grease/grime. I got my paint kit from here: http://www.stylinconcepts.com/parts.cfm/partfamilyid/548/categoryid/11/subcategoryid/69
Actually, you can also just use some engine paint and that will work if you want to ghetto rig it. I did that on my rx-7 and I was shocked at how good it looked. You can get the paint from just about any car parts store. It is imperative you properly clean the calipers first, however.
So over the winter I installed a new mishimoto x-line radiator and the mishimoto dual fan shroud with fans, and a derale dual fan controller. It was great and didn’t overheat until the temperature started getting warm outside. Now driving on the freeway @ 70mph it’s starting to overheat. I’ve...
So my on my 1993 supra with a 2jzgte, the temp gauge on the gauge cluster, just pinned to High. Even when the car is only warm. I unplug the single pin sensor and it drops back to cool. I ordered a new sensor and tried to install it, but the sensor threads are just a little to big for the...
I have been out of the scene for 8 years or so, and my '95 MKIV has been in storage for the last 6 years or so, but I am getting ready to bust her back out and get the beast rolling again. That said, when I put it in storage I knew I needed a LSD due to the turbo upgrade I gave it... but now the...
Hi everyone. I have a strange problem. The sound that comes on when the door is open is always on. It's a 1995 Twin Turbo 6 speed. It's been a month now and I brought it to Toyota and the tech thought it was the switch under the ignition. (part number 84052-41010) I found a new one and...
