Well I seem to have a bad habbit of hanging out here then just up and dissappering as Andy and Cody will be able to tell you. Well I haven't posted any pics of my newest car. Last one I think I posted up was the FC. Well now I have some thing a little different....
Ladies and Gents, I present you with my drifter/touge/daily car....
1991 Toyota Supra 2.5TwinTurbo-R that I had imported from Japan. Yes its RHD, it has the 1JZGTE motor (baby 2JZ), yes its a heavy beast, and yes its lots of fun to drive and very easy to handle when sideways! Now on with the pics
Thats right kiddies, the interior is done from FACTORY in Recaro seats front AND rear! The engine is a 2.5L I6 with twin turbos with stock HP numbers of 280hp and 267ft-lbs. Its quite rev happy as far as I6's go. It safely will rev to 8500rpms stock (if i remove the stock 7000rpm red line). It currently has KYB SR Special struts with Tein springs which is working alright for now but will be changed out for a nice set of Cusco Zero-2 coilovers in the new year. The car as it sits with only intake and catback went 14.1 @ 95mph in the 1/4 with a 60ft time of 2.0secs while weighing in at 3485lbs. So for a heavy car it moves quite well.
Future plans will be as noted earlier, coilovers, converting to a single turbo (looking into a 60-1 with a T3 turbine for fast spool and good power), and a better FMIC then the stocker.

Thanks man, best part... only 91,000kms on it right now, thats somewhere roughly around 50-60k miles. Crazy low mileage car!
Oh yeah, its also not black, its Dark Green Mica. Looks black unless light hits it then it shines a nice metalic dark green! its gorgous just after washing it.
Thanks alot guys for the compliments! Andy, Gratz man on how far you've gotten over the last 2 years! I remember when this site started up and how everyone here was just learning to slide. Wish I was still in the SE of the USA so i could have been part of it all! Maybe if i can get a couple weeks of this summer from work I'll make a road trip down and we can all hang out again for old time sakes!
EDIT: oh yeah, about the sunny pics... here in the North West we don't have winter, its just rain all day and all night. Its been raining for over a week straight now but if I get a break in the weather I'll snap a few new shots of her and post em up for y'all!

You still living in GA? Wondering since your local is saying Schenectity. As the summer gets a little closer I'll look into getting some time off to make a road trip down to GA for get together! Cody, you still living at 507?
