Ricepilot Posted November 24, 2003 Share Posted November 24, 2003 Boys and girls. Bought my Supra at the start of the month and been trying to find out a little more on its spec. As per usual, Jap auction held very little info. I just cannot work out what the front spoiler is to be honest. (and I'm guessing on the side skirts as well:D ) I reckon its a mix and match kit and it seems to all be made from Glass fibre. Any help would be great!!! http://members.lycos.co.uk/goldieno1/Supra/Supra%20010.jpg http://members.lycos.co.uk/goldieno1/Supra/Supra%20028.jpg http://members.lycos.co.uk/goldieno1/Supra/Supra%20031.jpg http://members.lycos.co.uk/goldieno1/Supra/Supra%20037.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thorin Posted November 24, 2003 Share Posted November 24, 2003 Skirts are just the standard toyota oem ones (or copies of them), the front spoiler is just a lower lip jobbie to replace the standard black plastic bit there. Not sure what it is as there's loads of em and all look pretty similar. Nice car (but personally I'd get rid of the Supra decal on the side) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aerotop Dave Posted November 24, 2003 Share Posted November 24, 2003 Aye, standard side skirts and rear spats (funny how they never quite colour match on silver Supras). Don't recall seeing that lower lip before though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SimonB Posted November 24, 2003 Share Posted November 24, 2003 Looks like a Trust/GReddy front lip. Takakaira link. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ricepilot Posted November 25, 2003 Author Share Posted November 25, 2003 but personally I'd get rid of the Supra decal on the side Y'know, your the first person to agree with me on that one!!! So many people have told me to keep it on so its on there for this time at least. Although it may well fall off soon:sly: Thanks for the positive comments as well guys. Look forward to hooking up with some of you come the new season... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roy Posted November 25, 2003 Share Posted November 25, 2003 that IS a GReddy front lip. it's the same one as mine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aerotop Dave Posted November 25, 2003 Share Posted November 25, 2003 Maybe it's a trick of the light, but yours looks like it's got a vent/long hole across the middle, whereas the silver one is blanked off...? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

apoc_reg Posted November 26, 2003 Share Posted November 26, 2003 i have the toyota oem skirts/spats. i dont know what the general consensice is but the are the best looking and most well suited ones i have seen, seen veilside and the hideous blitz kit in the flesh and didnt like much. I agree the supra graphic suits the car! Reg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ricepilot Posted November 26, 2003 Author Share Posted November 26, 2003 Why thanks Steve! (in fact thanks everybody) As for other mods, I haven't been able to get the car onto a ramp so far to make certain but here are a few that I can see. Greddy Front lip spoiler ARP Rear aluminium spoiler Brake master cylinder housing fully braced Braided Brake lines all round 18" Volks Racing LE37a rims wrapped in (265/35 rear, 235/35 front) Bridgestone Potenza rubber Fetsport front strut brace Bilstein shocks all round Lowered (but unknown height) Apexi induction kit Greddy heat monitoring kit (gauge mounted in Greddy 'A' Pillar pod) Uprated earth wiring throughout engine bay Straight thru' custom exhaust ending in 5" rear pipe. Heat wrapped exhaust manifold. (unable to quite see what exactly has been done with it but not sure if its also been uprated) Dynamatted to within an inch of its life. As for turbos. I'll go hide in the corner. Its got none. It was a case of I wanted a manual box and was either a very good NA manual or a stacked TT manual. (and I really didn't fancy another auto) Took it on as I normally modify engine rather than styling, so its a bit of a change for me. Anyhow, I might just do something with the engine given time!!! Couple more pics for ya! http://members.lycos.co.uk/goldieno1/Supra/Supra%20017.jpg http://members.lycos.co.uk/goldieno1/Supra/Supra%20031.jpg http://members.lycos.co.uk/goldieno1/Supra/Supra%20032.jpg Was also considering taking off the rear aerodeck at the top of the rear window. I heard that it can be an arse to get rid of but for me the lines of the car (supras in general) looks far better without it... Thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aerotop Dave Posted November 26, 2003 Share Posted November 26, 2003 I can't make up my mind about those rear sun visor things. Someone on here has a black Supra and I think on that it looks great. But on other colours it's... hmmm, not sure. It doesn't look crap, but it doesn't look great either. Indifferent, I guess. Nice car Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
