Dirt Worthy Supra
 
I have just acquired a mkII supra that has some front damage. The damage includes windshield and hood other than that the car is fine. I live in a rural area with gravel and paved roads. What i would like to do is build this supra as a daily driver that I wont have to worry about the gravel roads doing a number on the car. I have looked for any tips on building this car not much on dirt. I am open to any suggestions on building a tank of a supra.

You should start with the struts. Are the Struts oem or aftermarket??? if they are oem, i highly recommend the tokico struts.

As far as I can tell everything looks to be stock. Im looking into the Tokico struts Thanks for the tip on Tokico it is much appreciated.

I would also change the upper control arm, the ball joins, and tie rod ends they tend to weard after 100,000 miles, and if one of those breaks, you will have serious problems. Check the following link to see the pictures of a car with a broken ball join.
