    Cheers mate :) thanks I got to admit the colour is growing on me tbh I haven't spent all that much on the car... It's more just small mods and improvements that make the big difference. Just detailing it I think completely changed the look of the car! Cup spoiler also I think really helps :D

    Thanks, certainly needs coilovers! Mainly to refresh the suspension and get it all firmed up but also to lower the ride height! The arrival from Pure Motorsports today should help by getting rid of the old knackered top mounts and replacing with this set up Cheers Davo it's good to be...

    Supra NA/T Conversion
