There's so many of you FLA GS gangsta's down there, I cant keep up!! i thought Indio had a gold GS with the C/F accents. If his car is white, then who has the gold car? Eliel or something like that?

Nice, very nice man !! Those powerslot rotors sure do look meaty behind those wheels also.. . I am so glad that the HKS exhaust looks flush with the rear. I too have this exhaust and I am glad that you didn't have to modify the hanger to pull it out a little more.

thanks guys for the kind comments

now i have reached a impass, body is done , susp done (just waiting on the slow boat from japan for my toms lower brace), brakes done , exaust done , stereo fine for me with upgraded sub and 1 5 channel amp

now to decide to supercharge and spend about 8k with tranny upgrade or to join the ranks of my bro and capo alwilliams and get a mk3 for pure power and boost the hell out of that and preserve the integ of my gs4 engine driveline etc etc

in case you folks dont know , al has one of cleanest mk3 white turbo supras probably in circulation , his is *****in fast running approx 16lbs of boost at 180k miles..the car looks like it justcame out of the showroom in and out , he is the orig owner after 15 years.. i like them from day one , lots of fun to drive and loads of potential to boost upwards of 400+ rwhp with some minor tweaking

man i dunno know but need to decide asap while the wife is agreeable , (you know on a side note , we make the money its ours , but somehow they have the control ultimately over it , something might be wrong with that equation )

Very nice combo Ed!!!!

That is the exact same combo I want to eventually do - just 2/3 rds of the way there now. Please PM me and let me know how much that rear bumper cost you.

The only concern I have with the bumper is that I would have to modify my L-tuned muffler to align it with that bumper.

Congrats and keep up the good work!!! Supercharge that baby and beef up the driveline. Sleepers are always more fun than pure dedicated sports cars like the Supra!!! The look of disbelief on other drivers faces of pure sports cars when you annihilate them with a SC'd GS is just priceless!!

I was always courious as to what the TTE front lip with the L-Tuned side and L-Sportline rear combo would look like.
Great looking package!

That's so funny man, I don't even know when my girl gets paid yet when its bonus and tax return time she says, " so baby did WE get OUR bonus yet?" I'm always like, when the hell did WE start speaking french? LOL

That's a tough one man, I too have always loved those Supras, especially after the 89 nose/tail update. They are just big beefy coupes with big power! Kinda like hatchback SC's just more raw!

I guess u could look at this, the GS would be done with 8k, 8k would probably get u the Supra, maintence and suspension and wheels, still gotta do turbos, exhaust, etc! Plus ongoing maintenece, tuning, gas insurance, etc

Or just buy a 92 SC and turbo THAT, best of both worlds!!
