I'd like to join in on one cruises soon, but I've got a few things going on for the moment.... I guess that's all for now....

thanks for the welcome guys. I forgot to mention that I live in Long Beach and currently looking to buy a home somewhere else in or near. That's why I can't make it out just yet. I haven't spent any money on the Supra in sooo long that it's driving me crazy!!

Well, here's some pics. Keep in mind that's it's only halfway finished. So please don't bash.

This is how my car used to look like when I first bought it. It was actually worst, but I didn't have a cam at the time.

It looks like a great project actually. After you buy your place, what are your plans for the car?

Oh, and if you're a first time homebuyer, definitely do an FHA 3% down, 30 year fixed loan :)

Plans for the car so far is to get a few things I've been wanting for a long time. Which is just an aluminum driveshaft and finish up the bodykit. I have a front lip. I just don't want to install it because it isn't easy to comeby. The rear is even harder to get. Brian knows, I'm 1 of 3(that I know of) in america who has it.

Yes, I am a first time homebuyer and yes, it's a fixed rate. F that adjustable crap. My co-worker is going to lose his home because of that.

Brian, I'm not bummed that I didn't get the house. I guess the other people made a better offer than I did. I wasn't 100% excited about getting it anyways even though it had almost everything I wanted. 3 bed 2 bath and 2 car garage for the queen.

Wheels and tint my a-- with your unknown monster engine. Yea man, I realize that I had all of those mods until I was going to sell it a few months ago. It just adds up...... to almost 10K in parts, labor and beer for this POS car that I can't get rid of, lol.

Sorry to hear about the house situation - that sucks. It was frustrating for us to, very stressful. Hang in though, it's all worth it.

As for the car, how much hp do you think it puts out currently?

Yea, I can't wait 'til I finally find a place. Then I can go nuts and start tearing stuff down. :nuts: Then work on the supra again.

As for the car.... it has never been on a dyno, but with the current mods it should put out around.... 260-270ish..... The engine is in need of a rebuid to actually see those numbers. I don't need alot of HP just a mild mannered 300hp or 300lbs of torque and I'll be happy.

I love your vette. Back in my day most of the hot cars were just primered because we spent every dime to make it go faster. We just primered the car to keep rust off of it.

Primer is a "I'll paint the car later, but never will," phase. Trust me I know all about it. lol.

It looks good. How many miles are on the engine?

It has about 150K miles on it. I bought the car with a blown head and lots of missing parts.
