SteamAhead Posted December 23, 2005 Share Posted December 23, 2005 If anyone is interested. About a month ago I was looking in to doing a few bits to my supra Thread link: http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?t=51987 Well, a month on my car is looking & sounding just how I want (for now ) Had a FULL service. (still couple of bits to do) New de-cat custom made exhaust. New 18" Wolfrace Tokyo Alloys with new set of Avon Tyres. The exhaust sounds great now (not sounding like a 1.8L any more ) Might have to take it back to have the tip changed as not entirely happy with how it looks. More my fault for picking the wrong size tip. I gave her a good wax last week, so here's some pics: http://img374.imageshack.us/img374/7738/newside19av.th.jpg http://img374.imageshack.us/img374/6729/newfront18qt.th.jpg http://img512.imageshack.us/img512/1961/newside22fn.th.jpg Crikey!! better get to bed, did not notice the time (got loads of drinkning to do in a few hours ). Night. zzzzzzz P.s Merry Xmas to anyone reading. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carl0s Posted December 23, 2005 Share Posted December 23, 2005 That's tidy. I really do like white Supras now. The rear bumper needs repainting though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SkyJawa Posted December 23, 2005 Share Posted December 23, 2005 Was all sounding good until you said Avon tyres - take it easy, they aren't anywhere near as good as F1's T1-R etc......... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteamAhead Posted December 23, 2005 Author Share Posted December 23, 2005 Know what ya mean on the bumper, just a slight off colour? As for the Avon's - ok there not great (more in my price bracket) but they will do. All in all, I payed: £750 for the alloys & tyres, which can't be sniffed at Still couple more bits I wish to do here & there, but for me the main bits are done now. Nice single turbo would finish her off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carl0s Posted December 23, 2005 Share Posted December 23, 2005 Know what ya mean on the bumper, just a slight off colour? Yeah. Mine was the same (Storm Blue) and I'd thought it was normal because of the plastic bumper and metal rear quarter (for some reason I thought that..) anyway when having a ding fixed a couple of weeks ago he blended it in. Much better now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteamAhead Posted December 23, 2005 Author Share Posted December 23, 2005 Must admit I assume the same due to it being plastic. I can live with it though it's not a problem. Any one else's bumper slightly off colour?? Is this normal?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SatSport Posted December 23, 2005 Share Posted December 23, 2005 any photoshoppers in the house? Wondering how those wheels would look on a silver motor?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

colsoop Posted December 23, 2005 Share Posted December 23, 2005 I have to say i am starting to like the white supra more your car looks very nice. Looking at a stock supra with the optional skirts and spats makes me wonder why Toyota didn't have them as standard (obviously more money) but the car looks so much better balanced with them fitted.

SteamAhead Posted December 23, 2005 Author Share Posted December 23, 2005 Got to tell you guys, grrrrrrr!!!!!. Popped out earlier (get some beers in), some Chav kid & his mate came up to me when getting out of my car and said; Love ya car mate, looks well fast. Bit too white for me, you want to put some Dragon decal graphics on it mate, would look well smart. All I could do was just grin and walk off before I'd smack him one. F$CKING TWAT!!!!! Sorry, had to get that off my chest, just really enoyed me ggrrrrrr!!!!!. Got a Stella in my hand now, so don't think that will help with my anger Anyway, cheers for your nice comments. Least you guys know what ya talking about toyotasuprauk - just popped out to have a look and they are: Avon ZZ3 145/40ZR18/97Y (bit dark & torch nearly dead so think thats right) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
