[choua01]

I haven't see a supra here so I thought I post my supra.

like title said its a 1994 Supra 6 speed Twin Turbo. I haven't done any serious engine modification on it yet, but will in the future.

for now just basic mods such as Exhaust and intercooler, intake.
rims are CCW 18X10 FR 265/35/18
18X11.5 R 315/30/18
Brembo GT Kit 4 pot piston Caliper
KW V3 Coilover

lol funny you mention that, I actually start out with a 1994 integra RS. grind like hell save up and buy it. I was only able to afford it because I have no girlfriend, no wife and kids.. forever alone :-(

all i have to keep my happy is my JZA80. :-)

your right, there aren't that rare but not cheap either especially a mint one. I rarely see other Supra like mine out on the streets. If I'm lucky I'll see like 3-4 a year.

I don't know why but I kept thinking that supra's were rare. Guess that's what happened when you live in a car culture sinkhole like my city.....where everyone drives.....a crown victoria. oh the lulz.

I think your kinda right, they are rare but not super rare like a Ferrari F40. A car that is not rare to me is a cars like civics, covettes, mustang, camaro.. I see'em every other day or everyday.

Its actually kinda scary driving this car too because you have people following you. not often but it happens time to time. Sometimes I have people asking me if they can take pictures of the car. That never happens when I used to drive my integra.

Great looking supra. Did you buy it without the spoiler or take it off yourself? I love Supra's but I like them much more with the spoiler, like GTR's they look a bit off without them (not as bad as the GTR though). But even without the spoiler yours looks very good.

Drive away? It is fast, yeah? Lol.

I'm glad you chose a different style offered by CCW instead of the typical LM20, Classic, and LM5.

 

[Sttrobe]

I'm jelly on a whole nother level, how much you buy err for?

lol I am not even kidding you about that. I can't even begin to imagine how worse it can get if I was driving a Lamborghini.
Best thing is that you'll get used to it and it don't both you as much.

I bought it with a spoiler, after 2 years of ownership, I took it out. I might put it back on some day. BTW GTR's ares nice.

thanks, I wanted the Brembo brakes to show through, so I have to order this.

pay $21,000 for the car and spend like another $10,000 on cosemetics and parts such as KW,CCW, New Paint Job etc. A 67mm Single turbo will be my last mod and I don't want a 1,000hp supra.

Sorry to be annoying, but with a car like this, you need to prove that this is yours. Put a piece of paper that says "choua01 Gtplanet" on the windscreen wiper. BTW awesome car

I'm not a fan of aftermarket tail lights, but those work surprisingly well.

Nice car 👍

Agree'd on the tail lights. Some people can eat up a car's style with those cheesy all chrome tail-lights.(<---obviously the 90's will never die.)

No problem my friend, I can show you the pink slip if you like. I understand where your coming from, I hate trolls too.

Playing Gran Turismo 1 back in 1997 got me hook to this car. Even til this day I'm still going back to Gran Turimo one driving this car.
In the game, the supra was a monster of a car to control, once fully modified, handling was hard and you feel very rewarding when you tame the beast and win the race. After that I vowel one day that I gotta have a zip of this beast in real life.

thanks, I'm glad you like it. About the taillights, they are actually OEM 97-98 Supra taillights with the inside guts being pull out and replace with LED guts.
They were inspired by the Top Secret supra in Japan.

me and the LA supra guys had a supra meet in front of the Toyota Museum. I also took some pictures showing some stuff inside the Toyota museum.

my local supra owners club had a little meet back in February 2012

That sounds like someone else I know that has 98 vette. Funny enough he decided to not get the supra since they were too difficult to get around here. And he didn't want to pay the FnF price hike on those cars.

Nice car man.👍

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE tell me there was a TS020 (Toyota GT-One) there. Seeing all those Supras is inspiring. Now i'm thinking on doing an article on an all Supra crew for my mag.

 

[choua01]

sorry they don't have it. The museum is still very new, so hopefully they'll add more into their collection. Part of this Museum makes you feel like walking into a garage in Gran Turismo.

some more pix.

Can you do everyone a favor and edit out the quote in your post? Not really necessary to quote a huge post with lots of photos in it. Thanks.

Nice car OP. 👍

Fantastic to see a Supra owner in here! 👍

I also am dreaming of one day owning a Supra. My dad has always owned old Toyota FJ40s when I was a little kid, and I became attached to Toyotas pretty quickly. When I was 8 years old, I first saw a Supra on one of these informational flyers that you can collect of all sports cars. Already then the Supra became my dreamcar. Then came 1999 when I first watched a Le Mans race, and drooled all over the GT-One as a 10 year old. The same year I got a PS1 for my birthday with GT1, and even to this day I YouTube GT1 Supra videos just for that nostalgic feeling.

I am still dreaming of owning my own Supra. I just graduated as an engineer last week, and Supras are immensely popular here in Norway so the dream surely hasn't died yet!

congrats on your graduation, now you are close to getting that car you want. Man, indulging in that nostalgic feeling is so addicting I can't get enough.

Got damn your car looks awesome. Very clean, and those CCWs are very cool, too, and indeed show off your brakes. Very cool car, altough I'll join to the "putbackthewing" brigadde. But everything else is freaking spot-on, and legit.

Future plans?

 

[Ibonibo]

Nice car, mate 👍

Very clean. I like Supras and Rx-7 spoiler free, they have a shape that allows it.

Taillights look nice. Very clean car. Was it black too before the paintjob?

 

[Mr_X]

Nice supra

thanks, future plan is removing the two factory turbo and replace with after market single turbo. Something like a 67mm turbo because I want a fast spooling turbo. Mazda Laguna Seca Raceway is like a 2hour drive from where I lived so I plan take it there sometimes.

it was originally black, I repaint it because the old factory paint was wearing out.

Nice supra

thanks 👍
