It's amazing how many people come out of the woodwork that can do what you have done Tres or do it better, or just mimick what you have done, since you have built one of the cleanest SCs yet. Kind of interesting, and funny.

Holy mother of god that's a lot of money for just parts. I guess you gotta pay to play. I'll check the thread for your parts list later tonight...going out =p.

Im actually thinking about selling it but I know I will regret it later on. I have too much of myself in this car.

normally supra's > SC's

buuut I would take a 97+ black interior 6spd 2jzgte SC300 over a supra anyday..

What kind of steering wheel is that in your SC? looks great

Well, the videos didn't turn out. You can't see anything. Next weekend I hope to get some daytime action.

Probably never. I'm not a big fan of drag racing. My car is slow at the drags on street tires and 2+ sec 60' without launching.

The car is running perfect. I got the turbo back and installed it a couple weeks ago. Last weekend was spent highway racing. I haven't had that much fun in a long time!
