MICKS TOYthis is my 1973 toyota corona rt 80.i have fitted a 1ggte twin turbo supra motor & gearbox with the supra dash.r 32 4 spotters & discs.so far i have run a 12.815 on 205 second hand track tyres.


OOOOPS MY FOOT SLIPED................ ......... THIS IS THE NEW PAINT JOB

this is how she looks after i painted it. to do the front guards i just hammered out the std ones.the back ones took a bit more i had to cut them out then get the inner guards to match back up then add more steel in for the flare.the skirts i made from 1mm zinc steel as with the front spoiler.


the rims are now 10.5 " wide on the back and 9" on the front with 245/45 /16 rs2 ventus tyres all round

the s13 is my sons car,its only a sr20 but soon a det so he can (try to) keep up with his old man (ha ha ha )>

PAINTING THE ENGINE BAY & PARTS TOOK A WHILE BUT WAS WELL WORTH IT. POLISHING THE PIPES TOOK 7 HOURS & A FEW LAYERS OF SKIN.
COIL HIDES UNDER ALTERNATOR .THERE IS 5 RELAYS , 1 REISTER & THE MAP UNIT AT THE BACK OF PLENTUM.
TURBOSMART DUAL STAGE BOOST CONTROLER(BORROWED FROM SONS ET PULSAR. THANKS MATE..)BLUE COMPLIANCE PLATE KEEPS THE POPO HAPPY(ITS ALL FUN AND GAMES TILL THE COPS SHOW UP(HE HE)). SUPRA WIPER MOTOR BOLTED STRAIT IN JUST HAD TO CHANGE THE END OF THE CRANK ARM..(SOME TIMES ITS EASY.
STD BOOSTER WITH SUPRA MASTER TO PUSH THE R32 4 SPOTERS & ROTORS.PEDDLE IS A LITTLE HEAVY BUT GIVES GOOD FEEL & STOPS HARD..
these seats i have had for about 12 years new in da box , they were for my ute which is stilllll not finished(to many toys not enough time)
these are the same seats recovered. the roof lining got some flames to.

i redid the door trims myslef
the supra dash looks cool,but i still have some more finishing off to do.ps some gauges are only filling the holes till i get the ones i want $$$$$$


i filled in the holes in the dash and blended in the gauges

the dash after paint job
these are the tomie 3 piece rims it took a while to pull them apart ,paint & polish but worth it
r32 4 spoters + rotors
