Well as some of you may know, I worked out a deal on my friends 300ZX TT and then shortly after I had a friend call me (Mayo on here) and asked about selling it to him... Turns out he wanted the car so before I even had the title in my name, he bought it...

Since I already had the itch to buy a car because I was excited about the 300, that I started searching and found this car... It needs a little bit of tlc and a lot of boost, but it will be the project car for a while... As stated above its a white hardtop 95 Supra and currently NA automatic... Brad and I looked the car over extremely closely to make sure it was what I wanted, and without a doubt it was... We picked it up Monday evening after work... The car is as close to bone stock as it gets... It has some 19" staggered wheels on it at the moment that will be for sale soon, and other than that the car is all stock with 111k miles... The passenger side fender has been painted, and it looks like a blind man did it... No worries though as the car will be going to the paint shop soon... This chassis has always been my dream car (prior to the GT-R coming to the states) and I finally had a chance to buy one... So here it is...

Pics that were taken by the previous owner...









And here is one of the car in its new home Monday night...



And here are a pic from last night of the first fix on the car... I had to get the windows taken care of because the tint on there was bothering me... For one, the color of the tint was horrible, and also you could not even see out of the back windshield due to haziness in the film... Now that it's been fixed, I like the car even more :) Slowly but surely I will get the car to my liking...



Thanks for checking out the new project!

Hell i had been looking for a set of wheels for you 300z and finally found some. But i guess you could throw them on the Supra instead! I know they're not 19's and in mint condition, but they are cheap and PIMP!

And a buddy of mine owns them so i may be able to get it a little lower... No promises though lol

Yeah man, you definitely need to stop by soon bro... And thanks for the hookup yesterday! Still in process for the "list" mainly waiting on my painter to get back from Vegas then we should be good to go...

Very cool. I like your work, can't wait to see where this goes!
Thanks man I appreciate it! Hopefully this car turns out like what I have pictured in my head...

Congrats...now do something atypical with it. I love Supras (as most do) I just would like to see something new with one for a change.
I'd love to do something atypical, but what exactly do you have in mind?

Word, congrats. Can't wait to see the progression.
Thanks man! I'd like to see how the GS is coming along sometime, I'm sure you are taking good care of it... I thought about getting one as a daily instead of the Camry but since it's almost paid off I'm planning on keeping it for the long haul...

nice man. is it an automatic?
For now yes...

It is an auto, looks good, gonna take a lot of work to make it quick.
A lot of work is the easy part, the money is the hard part lol... I'm taking my time with this build so hopefully one day it should put down decent numbers... I'm not shooting for anything crazy honestly...

Oh wow! Some of my favorite wheels of all time! I even miss the ones I had on my Integra :( I don't think that size and offset would work well with a Supra, but I'll let Brad know... He may be interested in those wheels...

are the parts for the AT to man conversion readily available?
Yeah, getting the parts isn't the problem at all, its saving up for the parts hahahaha... At the moment, I am still undecided as to what I want to do as far as transmission goes... Built Boost Logic auto trans or getrag 6 speed... We'll see how things play out...

How much for tha wheel milon?
Hmmm I'd let them go for $600 wheels and tires... Tires do not have much tread left, would need to be replaced within a year I'd say...

lolz at all the auto to manual questions!

some must not know alot about these cars ;)
Hahahaha yeah, swapping auto/manual shouldn't be an issue at all... I just need to decide which direction I want to go with the car lol...

To be honest I dunno, I am not "up" on what is out there for Supras unfortunately. I guess if I were building a Supra (which I can't afford haha) I would WANT to build something with a clean widebody kit that isnt seen very often and go for a time attack feel. Like I said, I dont know all the options so I'm just talkin' lol.
