Miles better!:cool:

 

Very impressive!

 

Looks so much better in person! Loved seeing it at Bluewater! :D

 

I did love it with the monster turbo!!! but the twins look awesome, cant beat a 2jz with big twins bolted to the side...

 

Cheers guys. :)

 

That Monster turbo was just too insane for me when I had it.... TBH it was a huge mistake me buying it! Mid-Life Crisis and all that! I would never by a big single again as it was no fun until about 5500rpm then you allways wondered if you could keep the thing in a straight line.

 

Really like what you've done Steve its transformed the car :) Well done mate :)

 

Thanks andy, appreciate that.

 

Lol. That turbo did look good, people were absolutely stunned when I opened the bonnet. No good for street use though and tried to kill you every time it came on boost! :)

 

Hows that Porche of yours mate..... Chopped it in for a GTR yet? :)

That's a proper engine bay :)

 

Cheers Johnny. :)

 

Thread bump for a great car!

 

Whens the 2nd pump going in and mapping? :D ;)

 

In the next two or three weeks hopefully. I'm not in a major rush at the moment as its not really the weather for a 700rwhp car. :)

 

when was the old big tubby coming on boost ?

 

Takes a bit of spooling up but when it got there it liked to try and break your neck. :D

Got the car out for It's MOT today (Passed as always:)) so I thought I'd take some pictures while it's out. Unfortunately only had the IPhone.

 

Also took the car for a good run as the weather was great today.

 

The injectors, fuel lines and extra fuel pump will be done this month ready for yet another mapping session in early March.

Lovely mate :thumbs: really like the pic with your friends evo, the supra just has so much more style! Looking at your dyno printout it looks a great laugh to drive. I'd say it's very lively after 4k :D

 

Got to agree with you there, the Supra has so much more presents.

 

The dyno print out on the previous page was from the old set up. Current print out is on page 27. :)

 

Nice! i think you should get in line for SRD work :tongue: LMFAO

 

:innocent: Been in line for a while now Rob. :p It's only a few hours work don't panic.

looking very nice steve, do you know the offset of the rear wheels & are you running spacers?

 

Thanks Simon. Not 100% sure on the offset, I'll try and have a look and see if it's stamped on the wheel somewhere.

 

I am running a 10mm spacer. Its not actually needed to clear the brakes anymore as I'm running J-Spec brakes but their needed to fill the rear arch flare. The previous owner had large rear brakes which needed a 15mm spacer to clear, the arches were then flared to accommodate this. When I fitted J-spec brakes I tried it without a spacer and the wheel didn't fill the arches very well so I decided to add the smallest spacer I could get away with. Also installed ARP wheel studs for piece of mind. :)

 

This is with no spacer.
