Thanks!! Im in the middle of putting up a massive garage so once that is done i'll have to get the cars back home and take some better pics and try to figure this suspension out! how annoying though nothing can ever just go totally smooth.

It never does. I hate working on my car, it fights me every time I Mod it.

I think I read somewhere the story of your car. Isn't it a restored rare find?

Got enough tire on it to hook anything up

The supra was a beat to hell black on tan 94 completely gutted down to the shell and restored. the tire on back is actually just for rolling around the street with a e85 tune. i have another set of much bigger tires for at the track.

Im also in the process of doing a pretty clean sounding but basic looking stereo to and thats been nothing but a PITA!!! alpine w200 head unit type x fronts type x rears type R sub and a 5 channel alpine amp.

Nice work- I remember reading about the build and thinking "Oh Schit that's badass"...

I'd love to get my hands on one, but I'm new to Toyota (old GM gearhead here)

Hats off to you on that deal.
