Reveal thingy idk


so the Supra has changed since I last posted properly. The 2JZGTE was swapped in easily and has been running fine, like it should after new gaskets and fluids. The same day, me and radcoon went to Mackay and Erwin's garage for a while. It was really good fun, Erwin brought us out for a ride in his drift-taxi ER34. Its odd having bucket seats in the back but, I enjoyed it.



This was taken after the final coat of primer was on. You can see it come together when its all one color.



And then the final color. In the end I went with a NSX original color, Imola Orange Pearl. Picked it as a homage to the Chargespeed demo Supra tbh.
The paintjob cost Y134,275 which isn't bad considering its a pearl color. Thanks to Mackay for telling me to paint it here, came out really good.



Also the first time showing it off with the new wheel - Volk Racing F-Zero Challenge in 18". I found these for sale for Y223,792 which is kinda steep for rims but these are lightweight, rare and look good.





And that's pretty much it for the visual side of things. Now that it looks good I can focus on the performance side of things more.
Big thanks to Mackay, Erwin and radcoon for helping to get the Supra ready for paint and just helping getting everything right in the engine bay etc.
I'm also looking at an Ebisu practice car, a R32 Skyline GTST from hugap. Hopefully I can buy it from him, I was looking for one tbh.
More when something happens.
