Rob_SRi NA/T Supra Build + Restoration..

rob_sri · Apr 2, 2014

Yeah don't worry! There's something special planned for the bootlid

Philip. · Apr 2, 2014

I think it'd look great with no spoiler, just the CF bootlid.

alexr19 · Apr 2, 2014

Saw this at Sunday service at silverstone. My mate commented on how nice it was. Spoilers going to look epic!

rob_sri · Apr 5, 2014

Yeah was an awesome day that

I've got a video somewhere from it.. My car was a little dirty as I convoyed down with another supra and a handful of TVRs/a lambo/porches down some country lanes.. So I was gunning it to keep up!

Carbon TRD wing and bootlid

Paint the sides of the wing but keep the carbon bare. It's such a good look

Ash' · Apr 5, 2014

Looking forward to updates. I have to own a Sup one day, as soon as insurance lets me

Yeah that's it I'd of had one years ago if I could of!!

rob_sri · Apr 6, 2014

Found a place for my old spoiler ....!!!

And fitted rack spacers, camber shims and spacers to the front..got lock?!!

rob_sri · Apr 15, 2014

Engine with TT headgasket ands few powdercoated bits on.. Still gotta clean down the block and paint it up, fit the chromed mounts and some other bits

went out and had a few shots taken with rich.2211's NA/T which il post later

DaveDreads · Apr 15, 2014

Always look forward to seeing your updates,
bloody love your car!

rob_sri · Apr 15, 2014

Cheers dude

it's really coming along nicely! Costing me a fortune but the summer is rolling in now so I'm getting to use it more which is ace

Missed off these.. Bonnet lifters.. My old bonnet stay was starting to mark my carbon slam panel so got these off the bay

Bit of hooning for the camera.. Don't worry this kind of abuse is usually only reserved for the Beemer lol

DaveDreads · Apr 15, 2014

That is f*cking cool burnout picture!

Clio's are sh*t.

rob_sri · Apr 15, 2014

My favourite by a mile.. Gonna get it on a canvas like this..!

They are very different beasts but I miss my old 182

great fun car!

DaveDreads · Apr 16, 2014

But a burnout in a Clio just looks like a you're a Chav in a McDonalds carpark,
RWD is just so much cooler.

Out of interest what MPG does a Supra get?

rob_sri · Apr 16, 2014

Not a fat lot...!!! I haven't even bothered to work it out tbh mate but apparently better MPGs are to be had after the turbo conversion so we'll see..

.. With anti lag I'm not convinced ;P

DaveDreads · Apr 16, 2014

What's your eventual plan for the car, weekend toy, drag racing, track days, show car?

Philip. · Apr 16, 2014

So f**king cool, I want one!

Agreed!

Reko · Apr 16, 2014

Awesome, just awesome. Makes looking at all these clio pictures on here seem like a waste of time. If I won the lottery a turbo supra would be my first buy I think

Pretty weekender/show car and fast as f*ck! With the odd track day too maybe!

I'd go on a parts spree finish this off like tomorrow if that happened, and I'd probably buy a 182 as a track car!

rob_sri · Apr 18, 2014

Billet rail Siemens DEKA 650cc injectors

Need a mani and WG now to get the turbo on..

DaveDreads · Apr 18, 2014

This will decimate all after you put about.............oh you have, nevermind.

LOL love that comment!!! Jokes aside I'd love to be nailing ferraris by the end of this!

Bits stacking up now, big fmic, manifold, down pipe and screamer pipe

Shiny shiny!!!

DaveDreads · May 7, 2014

You realise you might actually spin the Earth the wrong way when you unload this thing,
please tell me some of those were over night parts from Japan?

JaredHasNoBrain · May 7, 2014

HOW HAVEN'T I SEEN THIS THREAD BEFORE NOW?!

Dude, amazing progress so far and can see the amount of shiny stuff will make it even more of a tank!

In love with this though.

SimpleJoee · May 7, 2014

i luv u

dmallett · May 8, 2014

Burnout pic is awesome.

Am I right in thinking that turbo is bigger than an average persons head?

Ali · May 9, 2014

Great looking cars and sound tremendous!

Not far ...!

Ex-User (72296) · May 9, 2014

AWESOME.

How much has that bundle of parts cost you roughly? Out of interest (nosey)

rob_sri · May 9, 2014

A fair bit.. ! I wouldn't even want to add it up! May have to when I've got everything

Picked this up from the bodyshop today to get rid of the last but of rust..

Carbon boot stencilled with the toyota logo and TRD carbon spoiler
