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...
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...
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...
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...
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
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...
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...

I'm at work at the moment, but I can take them off and check once I get home this afternoon... The size I believe is 19x8.5 and 19x9.5, no clue on offsets but will get this info tonight...
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.
Hmmm, I'll have to look into it but I really love the stock body on the car... I'm up for ideas though... But I'd rather put that type of extra money under the hood of the car... Then again, I change my mind by the second...
I wish I could get a supra I really want one. I dont even care if its NA auto. Be an awesome DD. BTW, I would consider keeping the auto trans. Put a boostlogic in there....just a thought
Yeah man, I won't daily this car but it will make for a fun weekend car... BL built auto is definitely up there on my list, but the thought of a 6-speed sounds good too lol...

I like it! Good pick up! I have a set of TT Calipers, rotors, and pads front and rear. Call me and let me know if you want them. They bolt right in and they are sexy looking!
Will do man... Give me til tomorrow morning to make sure the car is still for sale... It's a guy in Brentwood, identical car with just a hair more miles I believe...
