why do you have to sell it??

j3pz · 10-01-2006, 08:09 PM

im gonna sell it because as much as i love supras, they are expensive cars and i dont have the money for it. gonne restore this one as best as possible and try to get 3-4k for it. eventually im gonna get a mkiv though so not all is lost

this might sound dumb, but did you go to school to learn all the mechanics of cars, or you just know from tinkering? thnx

j3pz · 07-04-2007, 04:20 PM

nope no training here. learned from just jumping right into it, lots of reading and searching, and these forums.

ninja edit: i also hang out with friends that work on there cars (turbo civics, turbo 5.0 fox bodies, srt4...)

this is the third time ive tried posting this, my sesion keeps timing out and logging me out, so ive had to repost three time lol, better appreciate this! any ways, new tires, fusion hri's 225/50/16. still got sticker pieces on them.

put on some new rotors, the ss lines, and painted the calipers
