This is my 1992 Toyota Supra Turbo with a targa top and 5-speed. I am the 2nd owner and have had the car since 1996. The first owner was the dealer, as it was the daily driver for one of the salesmen there. It currently has 210,000 miles on the clock.
In 2004, I took a Kenworth up the ass (at low speed, thank God), and set about redoing the whole car.
After the body work was completed, the car was repainted its original Super Red II factory paint, but I added some custom touches to give it some personality. First, the grill pieces and headlight bezels were painted to match.
Then the stock 5-spoke wheels were painted Toyota Super White, with the Toyota logo in the center cap hand painted red to match the body. Finally, I got rid of the stock two-tone rub strip along the length of each side by repainting it to match the rest of the car.
The engine compartment was dressed up with some painting and polishing. The 3000 pipe and intake manifold were polished, and the ignition pack, cam gear covers, and valve covers were painted to match the car.
Performance enhancements include a Cooleze downpipe (ceramic coated), Blitz Nur-Spec cat-back system, Spec I clutch, Fidanza flywheel, and K&N FIPK. The rest of the engine is bone stock, which is the way I wanted it for reliability.
I also decided to put a fresh bullet in it while it was down for body and paint work, and with the engine out, we were able to bring the engine bay back to new.
The finished product is on the next page.....
