A dream come true

Recommended Posts

Some time ago I registered in this forum saying I wanted a Supra, as well last month I bought my Supra and my dream came true. I'm from Spain, more specifically of the Canary Islands there are only two Supras here.

Is a 1993 USA Spec with 60990 miles.

Here pictures of the car:

I disliked the front bumper Bomex and sideskirts Veilside, I have removed and are now on sale if you are interested send a PM. The car now have only the stock from bumper fited. Soon the stock sideskirts.

 

Here a pic of the 2JZ

Looking good. Good thinking on losing the Bomex and Veilside.

 

Also, you can't create threads in the projects section, a moderator has to move it there.

 

Thanks Josh.

No problem, I'll wait to have the necessary posts to create a new thread in projects section ;)

Your intake temperature will probably rise due to the fact that about 50% of the FMIC is now blocked by the stock bumper.

 

In a climate like the one you are blessed with I think you should take a look at modifying the bumper to allow more air to flow through the FMIC and reposition the FMIC to sit a bit straighter (if possible) to allow better airflow through both this cooler and the radiator.

Currently, I don´t have overheating problems. I can´t put the intercooler more straight, is at the border with vessel, has a significant gap between the intercooler and the front bumper through which fairly good airflow.

 

Thanks for the advice anyway.
