Sorry guys, no particular reason for posting this. Just feeling really good right now and feel like sharing.

Had a few drinks, heading out tonight for a friend's birthday, just finished exams and best of all: picking up my new car tomorrow - a '94 non turbo Supra.

Carsales pictures are terrible, but this is basically what it will look like (same kit, and no spoiler):

Only mine is bright yellow with white wheels. To be honest, I don't know if I like the kit, but mechanically the car was top notch and the body/interior was mint. Cosmetics are cheap to fix.

More pics will come, promise!

Man you finished exams already? lucky you. i still got two more to go next week. Good timing to get your car too. I reckon i may have gone the supra route if i cuold have afforded a twin turbo model at the time. I reckon you are better off sellin the UNR34L plates to someone with a 34, n get a new set of customs for your new ride?

Have fun man, enjoy the new car.

man - i still have a soft spot for supras! Looks good man.

i remember i was sooo close to buying one - and then i drove a gtst - couldnt afford a TT supra or a gtr, so went for the gtst (couldnt go back to an NA after it)

now after seeing your pic, im thinking if i should go test drive a few twin turbo supras :(

Try an NA one, they pull surprisingly hard. They're something like 130-140rwkw.

As for the kit, I didn't like it much at first either, although it is growing very quickly on me. I'm doing a hobby spray painting course with a mate of the next few months. So we plan on whacking a subtler kit on and giving it a fresh respray.

As for the plates; they only held on to the grill by those zip lock things. The previous owner only put the bar on it a month or so before I bought the car and hadn't bothered to mount the plates. One of my mates is already working on a bracket to hold the plates in place.

BTW, if you don't like the kit you should've seen the wing that it came with. Seriously, it puts Evos to shame.

    • Good points thanks. Unfortunately I can't seem to rename this or delete the topic. Seems like I'll ask the moderators to change it or delete it.
    • You might want to update the thread title.  V37 ≠ V36.  And it probably isn't a G37 unless it is 2012+ Ininiti or LHD.
    • Just a basic run down of the relevant bolt-ons. All e85 First graph 406.9whp is HKS GT-RS, HPI manifold, 3" bell mouth dump / 3" straight through fake cat / 3" all the way to the rear and no resonators, nismo 740cc, walbro 460, oem RB26 itb's, power fc, eboost2, Greddy Spec M fmic, poncams, Turbosmart actuator, splitfires, ARD 150amp alternator. Blue line is same as above but Blitz Dual SBC (before i upgraded to eboost2) and 100cell "high flow" cat. Red line is after installing eboost2 and the fake 3" cat (it's just a 3" pipe with a cat shell welded onto it). Huge gains in response, as can be seen. Black dots are a mates sr20 with almost identical setup but uses a garrett 2871 instead oh HKS. Next grapghn 466.6whp is same as above, but HKS 2835 Pro S with the larger .87ar turbine housing, the special HKS Pro S dump pipe into a HPI split dual 2.5" front pipe and the rest stayed as is. Red line is after I welded the actuator brackets. (It was originally bolted together and was moving a couple millimetres under load). Green line is obviously before I welded the bracket, no other changes. 100whp gain at 3750rpm, massive gain for such a simple fix. Third graph is my current setup, huge changes. 469.7whp R31house twin scroll manifold, twin TiAl 38mm gates, Forced Performance (USA) HTA3076 with 1.01ar twin scroll rear housing, Link Fury+ and loom by 12volt, PRP trigger kit and r35 coil kit with r35 splitfire coils, HKS step 1 vct staggered cams, new oem lifters and performance springs, 49mm itb's w/port matched Nismo plenum, twin walbro 460 surge tank setup + 1650cc injectors, HKS Type R S13 600x300x103mm fmic, individual egt's, 4" turbo back with no resonators or cat and AES true straight through muffler + 4" butterfly off the dump pipe lower 90° bend. It's a preliminary tune with no boost control with using 20psi gate springs and 4" butterfly closed. Once body loom and PDM is compete, will go for 30psi tune.
