New member/ New Supra

Thanks for the help. The car cost me $2200 as it sits, so that leaves me a few bucks to get the basics out of the way. I will be sure to take pics as I do the mods. Oh yeah...the car is a Targa top as well. Would rather have had a hard top, but can't have everything I suppose, lol.

I wanted to buy that car... seriously I almost called on it. Welcome!

I know they're expensive but new rims and tires can make a pretty big difference and I can't stand the stock supra rims. but welcome and good luck with the finest "rice burner" on this side of the pond.

If it has TEMS and you want to keep that option on the car, you can get Tokico Illumina II struts that are TEMS compatible. Or as another option, get coil overs instead of the eibach and tokico. Also check the bushings, or have someone check the bushing, replacing those will also help stiffen it up.
