JustGav Posted May 24, 2009 Share Posted May 24, 2009 Wow, that is a car and half... definitely a lottery win one So much care and attention.... Exterior: -TRD Widebody Kit. This is a knock off TRD Wide Body kit, not an OEM Toyota kit. Many argue the fit and finish of the knock off kit’s are better, but depends on which kit I suppose.

Centers are flat black, lips are polished. Lugnuts are black, ultra lightweight and $$$. Can’t remember who makes them though. Why not bigger? Well it has plenty of room to accept a larger wheel/tire, but that also increases drag and makes for very expensive tire replacement. -ARP extended wheel studs on all four corners. -HKS Hipermax RS 33 way adjustable coilovers. I love these shocks. -TRD 27% stiffer sway bars, front and rear. Brakes: Brembo F50 14” big brake kit. Black calipers.

JustGav Posted May 24, 2009 Share Posted May 24, 2009 Pt2 Air Conditioning and Heat is fully operational, this is a true street car with all amenities. Heat wrap and HPC (high temperature ceramic coating) is used throughout engine bay in all critical areas: Water pipes, turbo kit, exhaust parts, water lines, oil lines, vacuum lines, brake lines, etc. have all been wrapped and/or coated in areas of high heat. Cooling system: Fluidyne radiator, polished TRD Low temp thermostat New OEM Clutch fan, clutch, and fan shroud for hot weather use. (electrics don’t cut it) Water lines from head that fed factory intake and throttle body are no longer used and have been welded up. Custom radiator overflow Tank Radiator and Front mount intercooler custom air deflector plates, polished Custom silicone upper radiator pipe that will never leak unlike rigid metal units New OEM modified lower radiator pipe Water line from water pump that passes under turbo manifold and feeds the heater core, head, etc. is fully custom. New modified water pump setup for dual ball bearing turbo Heat shielding on passenger side to keep heat away from sensitive brake components and pressure sensors for boost and boost controller are discreetly mounted and hidden on the firewall. All feed lines are run with Teflon stainless braided hose. Nothing cheap about this build. Turbo Kit: Turbo is currently undecided but will most likely be a 42R with a 76mm inducer or the smaller framed 76 it ran last. Both are already sitting here, just deciding what direction to go in. **TURBO is Decided, Garrett GT42R Hybrid, 76mm inducer, 1.28 Hot Side (it's a 3.4L stroker after all) Twin scroll, HPC coated in black, compressor fully polished, etc. Fits like a glove. Turbo blanket to decrease under hood temps and aid in spooling. Divided twin scroll HKS exhaust housing, T4, fully HPC coated in black. Custom stainless braided water lines to turbo, heat wrapped with ultra high temp shielding using –6an lines and fittings. Compressor housing is extended, fabricated and welded to utilize a 3” silicone coupler that is easy to access and wont blow off. Compressor housing is fully polished. Custom Oil feed to turbo, Stainless braided Teflon spun line with ultra high temp heat shielding. –4AN line Custom oil return with stainless braided line –10AN, heat wrapped with ultra high temp heat wrap. HKS 60MM wastegate Wastegate dump tube is HPC coated in black. Waste gate lines are run with Stainless braided teflon spun race hosing using -AN fittings throughout. All wastegate hoses are then covered in ultra high temp heat shielding for added protection. 5” intake piping Intake pipe was fabricated in house and has been powder coated silver. K&N 5" race filter All black high temp silicone couplers throughout turbo system. Front mount intercooler: Greddy 4 row with true 3.5” outlet on intake side to match intercooler piping and throttle body so there is no pressure loss or restriction. Fabricated and welded for perfect fit, then ported internally for proper flow. All black high temp silicone couplers used throughout. Polished intercooler Blow off valves: Twin Tial polished 50mm Blow off valves, running stainless braided Teflon spun lines with AN fittings that will never blow off. 1 on each side of FMIC Intake Manifold: Hypertune intake manifold with removable runners 3.5” Hypertune throttle body. Built in velocity stacks at the end of each runner Added vacuum ports on bottom of intake manifold welded on and set up for AN fittings Idle Air Control Valve welded on bottom of intake manifold. Custom Throttle cable Fully polished intake manifold, throttle body and fuel rail. Fully custom 3.5” fully polished intercooler piping with a perfectly cut hole for piping to run through. Pics show the detail better then the description can. Fuel system: 1200CC Custom RC injectors Hypertune Fuel Rail Dual Denso high flow fuel pumps -NO Cheap Walbros OEM Toyota In tank fuel pump pre-filters Anti static fuel pump insulation wrap in fuel tank Dual relays running high current power source to each pump in trunk area Aeroquip in tank ultra high performance fuel hose Aeromotive fuel pressure regulator with external fuel pressure gauge Custom Fuel pressure regulator mount Dual massive .8micron inline fuel filters to make sure that even the smallest particles are kept out of the injectors. Proven to work exceptionally well in sandy areas (Qatar, Bahrain, Arizona, etc) in cars we have built. Dual –6AN fuel feeds to engine bay Custom Large flow fuel rail and mounts – fully polished All stainless braided hoses throughout.

JustGav Posted May 24, 2009 Share Posted May 24, 2009 Pt 3 Engine management: HKS F-con V-pro Stand Alone Engine management. F-con V-pro V3.24 head unit Two HKS Mixture controllers discreetly mounted in center console for 2 step RPM control (launch control) or timing maps on the fly. HKS Intake air temp sensor HKS super wide range Pressure sensor HKS Custom F-con V-pro harness HKS F-con AF/Knock amp with display custom mounted in rear view mirror for heads up type display while driving. HKS super wide range Oxygen sensor EGT with exhaust gas temperature sensor properly mounted 3 inches from the head in the #6 exhaust runner, Oil pressure, and oil temperature gauges used as well. F-con controls the fuel pumps sequentially so that only one pump is run at low speeds/low boost and the other is operational only when needed. This keeps fuel temps low and reduces the possibility of detonation or octane loss from super heated fuel. F-con controls the Nitrous system completely with multiple redundant safety features. Battery/Electrical: Optima blue top, deep cycle, marine battery Remote trunk mounted battery setup Custom 1 off Pre-Racing made battery tray and mount Custom Battery wiring Fused throughout car Expansion blocks in trunk area to feed nitrous system, stereo, and fuel pumps High heat shielding on all wiring Gold battery terminals and connections Cage work: Do-luck tension set/cage. Powder coated black to match paint. Boost control: HKS EVC EZ II intelligent boost controller, a super accurate boost controller that is very easy to use. Clutch: Currently RPS Twin Disc Carbon Carbon with lightweight Aluminum flywheel. The clutch is the only power limiting factor on the car, everything else is capable of BIG 4 digit RWHP and built accordingly but the clutch wont take it. Limited to the 1000-1100RWHP mark. Tilton all the way if you plan to go to a larger turbo. Otherwise the car is built to take whatever you can throw at it. Ate’ Super blue high temp clutch fluid Transmission: New TRD transmission mount New B&M short shifter powder coated black for a more discreet and european look. Solid shifter mount bushings Rear diff: TRD limited slip rear differential for better traction and increased strength. All new Diff seals, Bearings, Etc. Interior Electronics: Custom Knock Amp AF/Knock display mounted in rear view mirror. Apexi gauges in pillar pod near driver. Boost, EGT Oil pressure gauge mounted in clock location TRD 10,000 RPM Tachometer Custom RSP painted dash panels and plastics throughout interior, chrome rings on every circular piece. (gauges, dash controls, shifter, etc) Wiring: All Custom harnesses for engine management Custom re-wired main engine wiring harness Custom main engine body harness Custom wiring harnesses, connectors, wiring shielding in engine bay and throughout car. Meticulously built with attention to detail everywhere Interior: Sparco Milano Suede seats CUSTOM done in black and RSP RSP Suede and Carbon Fiber on door panels RSP Suede and carbon cloth shifter panel Black factory carpeting Black on RSP look with all interior items powder coated black or RSP to match exterior paint, roll cage, rear strut bar, shifter assembly, etc. Stereo: Alpine CD player, I-pod controller, Satellite radio ready Upgraded front and rear speakers (I forget what they are off hand) Twin Alpine amps, 1 for subs, 1 for front and rear speakers. Completely custom modular stereo system that can be removed in full in less then an hour. Perfect for track days, or to access any part of the car with ease. TO access fuel pumps takes less then 5 minutes. Designed accordingly. Pictures do the rest of the system more justice then my description will Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustGav Posted May 24, 2009 Share Posted May 24, 2009 Pt 4 Chroming, polished: Chromed factory power steering pump pulley CNC’d idler pulley Fully polished idler Chromed idler /shift shock brackets Fully polished intake manifold, throttle body, fuel rail Fully polished custom valve covers Fully polished Radiator over flow tank Fully polished custom upper water neck Fully polished custom lower water neck Fully polished compressor housing on turbo Fully polished PRE made breather tank and polished filter. Chromed Ignitor cover Powder Coated intake pipe to Turbo Fully polished intercooler piping. Polished fluidyne radiator Polished radiator deflector plate Polished Front mount intercooler deflector plate Chromed Radiator mounting brackets Polished custom battery mount Chromed/polished pulleys Exhaust: True 4” custom downpipe, HPC coated black and heat wrapped for additional protection True 4” custom midpipe, HPC coated black HKS Titanium 4” exhaust V-band clamps used throughout exhaust system NOS: Nitrous has never yet been used on this car. Nitrous Oxide Wet kit with single nozzle installed. Small 100hp wet shot is set up, set up to spool turbo extra quickly when needed. Custom switches mounted in passenger area. Nitrous system activation switch, arming switch, Bottle heater, and purge button discreetly mounted inside center console Bottle Heater Bottle blanket Nitrous system is completely HKS F-con triggered and managed for drivers peace of mind. Nitrous will not spray unless boost is in ideal range, rpm’s are in ideal range, timing is in ideal range, throttle position is in ideal range, etc. Can be tailored for end users preferences. Purge kit Large NX solenoids all in black. 10lb NX bottle Quick release bottle brackets Discreetly mounted solenoids, purge solenoid and dump for nitrous purge with custom mounting bracket to blend with engine bay. Custom Bottle Dump Tubing for emergency bottle venting. Fluids used: Royal purple Synchromax transmission fluid Redline shockproof LSD fluid Royal purple Power steering fluid Ate’ Super blue brake fluid Ate’ Super blue clutch fluid So there you go, that’s the short version of the build. Since the car isn’t fully complete at the time of this write up I may change a few things here or there but nothing radical outside of the list here. (contemplating re-painting engine bay, and other misc. things) Whatever is changed will be noted accordingly in later posts. The big question… Why am I selling it? I own several Supra’s and my favorite is still my black beauty AKA the “JEDI” and I never have time to drive any of them. So I am thinning the herd down. Including the cost of the car there is over $227,000.00 invested in this car. Documented. I understand the hit the economy has taken and things are hard for everyone right now, so we have taken that into consideration. It is very important to me that this car find a good home, that is a lot more important than how much $ it is sold for. So buyers will be screened (we will confirm that you understand what this car is, what your experience level is, etc) and will also be trained in how to care for the car, how to drive it, etc. Now then, with all things considered Asking price is set for a Fast sale at $79,999.99 Will consider partial trades, I need a new daily driver and wouldn’t mind another Lexus IS-F + cash.

Rich Posted May 24, 2009 Share Posted May 24, 2009 Awesome!glad to see he has removed those nasty blitz wheels and sorted the bonnet gap where it was out on the passenger side.There must be well over 100k in that car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex Posted May 24, 2009 Share Posted May 24, 2009 Whilst I respect the work that's gone into this build the breather system concerns me... For starters catch cans should be LOWER that the breather outlets... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete Posted May 24, 2009 Share Posted May 24, 2009 Whilst I respect the work that's gone into this build the breather system concerns me... For starters catch cans should be LOWER that the breather outlets... I'd like to see you try that on my Tiger. The breather pipe on the Pinto is half way up the block, there's very little chance of mounting the tank that low in the engine bay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jevansio Posted May 24, 2009 Share Posted May 24, 2009 I would so like to say "the car isn't worth what he wants" & "boy does he thrash out his spec list", but that is one feckin awesome Supra, absoluetly love it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex Posted May 25, 2009 Share Posted May 25, 2009 Awesome car but why after all that hard work does he leave the Taxi Steering Wheel ?? Because most aftermarket wheels look like junk? I mean, if there is one thing that will put me off a Supra's interior it's some idiots decision to fit a POS steering wheel instead of the perfectly good stocker... He could have only improved it by fitting the facelift 3-spoke. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigbloodyturbo Posted May 25, 2009 Share Posted May 25, 2009 amazing supra and an amazing spec list but as much as I love sup's I don't think its worth his asking price, even if it does have $k's in it. I suppose its worth what someone is prepared to pay for it. Beautiful car though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
