I didn't see those 99 spec tail lights in the garage tonight..??!

I was able to swing by and check this beast out this evening. I can't believe how much of this work has been done in a storage unit, and the attention to detail is extremely impressive! I could have stayed a lot longer, but I didn't want to slow your roll too much David/Zach (Did you say you go by Zach?)

In an effort to get everyone off of his back about shoddy pictures, I shot a few, hopefully they are up to snuff!!

Maybe I'm off base, but isn't having the air temp and various boost/vac taps pre-IC going to cause an issue?

Air temp pre and post,

boost/vac sources all pre-intercooler. There's no pressure drop so there will be no issue

I don't see how any Supra build could possibly compare to stuffing an FD with a PP four rotor and a MASSIVE turbo.

And it only took 2 engine controllers to run the damn thing.

That's actually par for the course on almost any V12 from that era, OE or not.

i hang out with a lot of supra owners and to tell you the truth i don't think it holds anywhere near as much cool factor as a 4 or 3 rotor fd lol

Wow, she fired right up. Instantly. Can't even hear the starter. Sounds so amazing. So happy.

No leaks. Just need to work out a bug w/ the TPS. Get the body panels together and film the official start-up video.

Thanks for all the support. Love this forum, love this country.
