Toe links, trailing arms, kaaz diff, eibach springs, S-03 rubber.

shocks are the weak link i guess.

I'm up at cecil a pretty decent amount and never see any other FD's. If you go again send me pm and i'll come up, always like seeing new FD's. =) The supra looks like this guy Tony's that lives down in my area. As you can tell it is very fast, its a nice car hes preatty cocky tho.

stock diff bushings in good condition, motor mounts have maybe 30k on em.

On that launch (in the dark) i just dumped the clutch at 7k. i tried slipping the clutch twice before that and dumping around 4k. The 7k dump produced the slowest run (13.9) but the highest trap (111). The only thing different from my 12.8 day is the kaaz diff.

here's a pic of the slips.

yeah sounds like ur just launching a little bit to high. I think u should give it a whack at a lower rpm. Ur spinning ur tires too much at first, what size tires u got on the back. if there not wide enough, then ur just going to be spinning.
