Build would cost a lot but it just depends what you want. Fullreplica would be a supercar... if I ever sold it would be much more affordable LOL

Lexus 4 Me it's really paint

Hey Tom, I didn't have to change to the Supra brakes they were just a slight upgrade I wanted to do. I also wanted the vaccum booster/master as I heard the electric units go bad sometimes. I had no problems fitting the clutch pedal and master cylinder in the location it's at. Just had to make a hole like all of the auto-manual conversions I read about on this forum. Hope that helps! I think I actually posted a pic in my blog build up category.

Stuck with the stock slave and fork until the tranny goes out... then I'll upgrade to a modded Tremec unit with the hydraulic stuff.
