So I’ve decided to waste some money… What now?

Chris Black @ 11:42 pm

So now I’ve got this thing. I’ve just sold a couple of my other cars, and I’ve got some money to burn. Instead of going on the wild spending spree that I would really enjoy, I’ve decided to take a bit more of a methodical approach and actually plan out what I am doing and try to document things this time. Boring I know…

As far as I know now, here at the things that have been done to the car as I bought it.

-W58 5 speed swap
-New stock clutch for a w58 based supra
-Ghetto Fabulous MECHANICAL (fire hazard) Oil pressure gauge in a completely invisible spot
-’Custom’ cat-back exhaust, press bent 2″ pipes
-MK3 Supra Clutch Style LSD ‘custom mounted’ (more on this later)
-Supra Saw blades with new Hankook v4s on them
-7MGE out of a Supra with about 100k on it
-New headgasket, almost all other gaskets and seals on the motor are fresh
-Completely new calipers/pads/rotors/ebrakes on all 4 corners
-New Battery
-Ebay Steering wheel/hub
-Steering dampener rheostat mod to tighten up steering feel

I think its in pretty good condition considering its been up north it whole life

Here is my ‘custom’ diff mounting… Comments welcome on this…

So siiiiiiickkkkkkkkkk

The Plan
