cowboy bebop Posted August 25, 2008 Share Posted August 25, 2008 For all that have asked, here's a quick rev up. The car was backed out and the video taken so folks can hear the exhaust note. There's no mistaking this for the 2jz, no way in hell. It sounds outstanding, and revs up quickly and smoothly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EdMorris Posted August 25, 2008 Share Posted August 25, 2008 Again that sounds like music to my ears. Very satisfying exhaust note. Great job Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest dangerousandy Posted August 25, 2008 Share Posted August 25, 2008 OMFG - that has to be the best looking and best sounding motor EVER! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul mac Posted August 25, 2008 Share Posted August 25, 2008 absolutely stunning Eric and well worth the wait keep the posts coming about the progress and i would love to see/here some drive by vids Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cowboy bebop Posted August 25, 2008 Share Posted August 25, 2008 Thanks very much, gents. It all very appreciated. There's no better feeling that hitting the start button, and hearing this thing fire off. It's competely different than a 2jz in that it sounds all grown up. The motor sounds aggressive and ready to work. Thanks again! Eric Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jspec Germany Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 That looks and sounds great Eric. Your hard work has really paid off. I'm headed back to the states in two weeks. Time to return after living overseas for 8 years. I may have to make a detour somewhere in my travels across the country to visit and see this beast in the flesh.

Guest CoolsBlue Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 sorry...but that supra just looks stupid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cowboy bebop Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 (edited) Not as stupid as this I suppose: That's what it looked like before. Keep in mind that the side skirts aren't on it in the pics. Eric Edited September 26, 2008 by cowboy bebop (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest CoolsBlue Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 (edited) not quite, along the same lines i guess:D just kidding, its come along way, well done for that, but imo it looks pants. ahhh edit, just read the bit about the skirts, awaits pics, thought it looked a bit odd:D Edited September 26, 2008 by CoolsBlue (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cowboy bebop Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 Yeah man, no sideskirts in the pics. I don't have big ole' truck flares on it Eric Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guigsy Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 is that a modified bomex bumper? the intercooler makes it look odd. a bit too busy with all the pipework. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thorin Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 Front bumper looks a bit odd, but I suppose it's necessary. I'm loving it though. You need to get a proper photoshoot done once it's finished, I need a new background picture Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 not quite, along the same lines i guess:D just kidding, its come along way, well done for that, but imo it looks pants. ahhh edit, just read the bit about the skirts, awaits pics, thought it looked a bit odd:D OMG are you blind? lol. That car is absolutely stunning. I suppose you thought the wing was meant to be missing too? The only gripe i have is with the front bumper. I don't think its too busy, i think its too empty. There is a big massive unused gap at either side (next to the IC pipework). Of course thats me being as picky as i possibly can be as i think its the most amazing supra i have ever seen. In fact, i'd go as far as to say its one of the most amazing cars i have ever seen period. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You need to get a proper photoshoot done once it's finished, I need a new background picture I agree, maybe meshed off might clean it up a bit. Love the front, the back I'm not so sure on.

cowboy bebop Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 We'll probably mesh it off before it's over, but hte main goal now is to get it finished enough to leave the body shop and back in my posession Eric Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoliathJay Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 Not like the TRD rear? I love the car, just think the flares may look outta place. Although I will reserve judgment till its completed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cowboy bebop Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 It's Blitz sides that have been cut down, they look more like TRD sides than anything. The bumper is a stock bumper with small flush ABS moldings towards the bottom to meet the flares. Eric Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoliathJay Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 Well seeing all the other projects you guys have completed, ill say you know best! Good luck bud. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
