ellis Posted March 9, 2007 Share Posted March 9, 2007 After months of fannying around, umming and aahing, trying to make decisions and going full circle, the project is now underway! Just won two new Top Secret side skirts on eGay, decided on the rear valance (ordering that tomorrow) and looks like a Greddy front lip! Wheels not yet decided! Engine down at Interpro being rebuilt with forged this and that by Jason (another Supra engine guru to add to the list!) and should all be back in the car within a month! Nigh on 6 months in the Micra when the car comes back, then kit fitting and wheels can begin! No pics yet but will keep you all posted. I had such good intentions of keeping the car standard when I first got it! That didn't last long! Several visits to CW started it all off and its now a slippery slope towards a well modded Supra.

ellis Posted March 26, 2007 Author Share Posted March 26, 2007 Update . . . . wheels on order, rear TRD replica wing on order from Nic (on its way) with carbon centre blade, Greddy replica front spoiler lip on its way from Whifbitz, Top Secret side skirts sat in the conservatory, rear valance (I only know of one other Supra with this at present) ready for collection. Engine with forged CP pistons etc should be getting picked up form Interpro this week ready for fitment back into the car. Turbos refurbed (still) with lots of other refurbed/replaced bits! Other plans . . . dildos coming off!! Smoothing over the holes! Aerial coming off rear wing and putting a bee-sting one on the roof, smoothing over rear wing. Will it be ready for Dragonball? Probably not as I don't want to rush it or be without it for any more time, besides, I need to run in that new engine first!! Before pics to go up soon with progression pics as it happens.
