skyline1 Posted July 1, 2012 Share Posted July 1, 2012 Hi all This is where my project beguins really, after owning the supra for about 3 weeks now ive been toying with the idea for the colour scheme and decided on a custom made purple "porno purple" is what ive decided on calling it. gonna be doing a few bits and pieces under the bonnet as love the colour [GRIN][/GRIN]. Anyway as a starting thread ill just sum up the car as it is now. Facelift Tiptronic VVTI D2 coilovers "purple" D2 wheel nuts "purple" HKS air filter unit Fuel cutdefender HKS super dragger exhaust twin de cat Blitz boost controller Boost gauge HKS bov Fuel pressure regulator Walbro fuel pump Uk spec brakes with yellow stuff pads al round Fusebox cover "supra" Supra lettering on fan shroud. Interior Alpine stereo Alpine subs and amp handsfree kit Some plans i have for the car are fit a stock active front splitter cant decide if i want new wheels or paint the ones ive got on some decent track /road tyres more purple under the bonnet more power would be nice too Pictures of the car when i bought it. http://just.razzi.me/photos/565302/8c74dcb.jpg http://just.razzi.me/photos/565320/05b9660.jpg http://just.razzi.me/photos/565318/765c010.jpg And some from today http://just.razzi.me/photos/655473/f73df72.jpg http://just.razzi.me/photos/655462/06c9962.jpg http://just.razzi.me/photos/655454/5c521e3.jpg http://just.razzi.me/photos/655447/3f1ad5d.jpg http://just.razzi.me/photos/655428/027c79b.jpg http://just.razzi.me/photos/655413/9c859cf.jpg http://just.razzi.me/photos/655408/f15d40b.jpg http://just.razzi.me/photos/655399/810d65b.jpg http://just.razzi.me/photos/655404/4f79e07.jpg http://just.razzi.me/photos/655394/24e45f9.jpg http://just.razzi.me/photos/655389/35c1d6e.jpg http://just.razzi.me/photos/655369/9a876d1.jpg http://just.razzi.me/photos/655357/c235b26.jpg http://just.razzi.me/photos/655351/3405412.jpg What do you think guys?

Iky Posted July 1, 2012 Share Posted July 1, 2012 Nice love the purple valve cover, but i'm not sure about the extra logo on the fan cowling because there's already one on the fusebox. 2 logos are a bit ott for me. My opinion of course. Looks great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tkddav3 Posted July 1, 2012 Share Posted July 1, 2012 some purple hose connectors woudlnt go a miss there bud! looks good get some rota's on there too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skyline1 Posted July 1, 2012 Author Share Posted July 1, 2012 Thats my next plan mate, on the look out for somewhere that may do custom colours and try match the purple...slim chance there so will have to see. I think ideally new wheels would be the better idea as i dont know if like the wheels anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

st3ven1 Posted July 1, 2012 Share Posted July 1, 2012 Nice car, quick OT question: Did you buy your car from a Toyota dealership, or were you just picking up some parts for your new car? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirk Posted July 1, 2012 Share Posted July 1, 2012 If those are the ali D2 nuts may I suggest junking them and getting some proper steel ones in purple. Those things are made out of tissue paper. Id feel more confident with cable ties holding on the wheels! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's one of the plans too, I know HKS do a purple replacement filter so gonna get one of those and think I'm gonna make some sort of a cover for the battery.

Swampy442 Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 Nice looking car that but I'm sure I wont be the only one that will tell you that those hks mushrooms are bad news, you would be better off with a blitz or a kNn They aint called deathshrooms for nothing, probably the worst filter out there.
