what kinds seats are you going for? Sparco has some nice CF seats for only $2500 each, i would try a pair

incase you want to keep your stock seats Sparco has a list of factory seats that are safe to use with harnesses, Supra seats may be only the list. however, Sparco seat comfort>all

thanks for the exhaust pics, got me some new fapping material now

 

Twas an exaggeration, but I feel ya on the acrylic, clear hood.

If I pulled up next to it I would be drooling.

 

I cant stop drooling...

 

no cats FTMFW!

 

Mr. Wizard! We need more pictures!!! Too little pictures to stare at!!!

 

Going to switch from the OEM clutch fan setup to a dual electrical fan setup. Will be utilizing two Lexus IS300 fans. One fan will run all the time, and when things warm up, the second fan will kick on and they will both go into high mode. Custom made harness with OEM connectors is being made so this will be plug and play. If the harness falls through, I can always tie it into the Vpro EMS and have it controlled that way.

Had the PHR custom made shroud polished by my polisher, Tony.







Here's the IS300 fans/kit. What you see here, the fans, will be taken out of the OEM plastic housing and installed into the custom polished shroud seen above. This pic was just for testing fitting purpose with the Fluidyne radiator.

 

Thanks to all who continue to follow my thread. I'll address your comments shortly, and add more pics of the current progress/goodies installed.

 

HOT

 

 

talk about going all out....loving it !!

 

So is this going to be a weekend warrior, or a show-only type vehicle?

I'm not sure I'd want to be under that hood every month cleaning all of those awesome shiny bits. I figured that you would have done with a lot more carbon fiber for a regular driver, especially since you like that look so much.

 

I don't know how much longer i can wait for an update!! I love this supra!!

 

Me too! I want UPDATE NOW! Flababababababababisherishtasicamotionalistically!

Phew...excuse me.

 

awesome james. wouldn't expect anything less from you.

been a long time since supras were my thing (before i could drive iirc) but i still remember that oem silver color the other guy mentioned. it really is beautiful, you should check it out (would go nice with all that hks purple).

i won't even pretend to care about the hp numbers but the attention to detail is awesome. sprinkle in some rare goodies and you gotta love it. great job being thorough with your parts and finding people with talent/passion to make it all come together.

 

Nice Build. Money must be burning a hole in your pocket.
Any pics of the defi gauges on?

 

x2 Nice *** supra build... needs lip kit and skirts imo once you finish motor though!!

heres the lip kit on my friends supra... it looks sic, i can find out what one it is if you want.

 

Sorry for the delay. Been enjoying the Supra lately. More pics/updates to come.

I'll address everyone's comments shortly. Thank you.

In the meantime, here's the long awaited dyno vid!! Enjoy!!
Woot!! I believe it was shot in High Def. too.

Big thanks to SPE for this awesome video. Very,very creative and well done. Well worth the wait!!

 

Wow that video was awesome. I love your supra... cept not front bumper (sorry ^.^') Stock with lip is ftw

 

Awesomeness

 

FAP FAP FAP FAP

 

Front bumper with shaved emblem and clean white paint = drooooool

 

Dear God! Even your YouTube video was very polished and put together nicely! And your car looks ever better one video!! I want to touch!!

 

.... wtf.... that is amazing...

I got to get a friend with polish business, that way i can have clamps polished too = ).

GREAT BUILD minus non OEM bumper(personal taste, I can understand)..

Im doing an i30t build following your maxima boost/cooling/eu setup

when Im done, now I have to do a supra build like yours too....

Please dont do anymore builds until i catch up thanks...

 

Are you going to be at CHI2K10 with this beast?

 

wow just wow, good luck with the continue of this build very impressive

 

How often do you go to Supra meets in socal? I'd love to see yours in person.

 

can I bang my GF on the hood of that car?

 

Hardly ever. I typically attend the big ones. Recently, I was one of the lucky 10 display cars at the Supra Appreciation Day at SPE.

Are you ??? LOL That's a genuine $1800 Do-Luck hood that took me over a year to get from Japan...

 

Some awesome pics

 

Sure it wasn't overnight service?

 

Ah the Supra Appreciation meet. I've already seen those photos...I can't believe the white one was yours haha. Is your name on the forums TheWizard as well? If you do end up going to another meet def let me know and I'll try to make it out too.,

Loving what you did to your supra though. Hopefully someday I can break 700whp. I've only managed to barely break 600rwhp on 100 octane + meth

Quick question... Will I see this car in Houston next weekend?

 

Who wants an update?

 

 

UPDATE!

 

dont keep us waiting lol

 

Here's a few pics of the Eclipse DVD/NAV install I did. I didn't like how the new aftermarket headunit stuck out so darn far from the panel, so I took matters into my own hands and recessed it!

Here's the OEM radio and the Eclipse AVN726E



Back shot for reference purposes


Side shot showing the factory mounting location holes vs aftermarket


This is how much it would stick out past the panel had I installed it as is...

 

I moved the stereo back 3/8 of an inch. I used the small indention shown as my pilot hole. Worked out very well.



Marking the holes...


Holes drilled



Opposite side: holes marked


Holes drilled


New screws in new locations

 

Bluetooth cell phone speaker flush mounted into dash panel







Up next, everything all buttoned up and installed.
