I've owned the car for three years and in those three years I've spent much of that time working on the body and the underbody as it was in less-than-perfect condition.

Basically the car was torn down to the point where only the motor/trans and the dash were remaining. The rust on the underside was cut around, and had gal-steel double layered(just like the factory) in place of the pieces removed. the whole rear suspension was taken apart, cleaned of any rust(i had access to a sandblasting cabinet), and then either painted or powder coated. The painting consisted of two steps, first etch primer to seal it, then a couple layers of black paint. The front recieved the same treatment, with many parts being replaced with new ones, including the struts, some bushings and a couple arms, and the front and rear brakes were rebuilt using toyota OEM parts. After everything was back in place, the underside(especially around the pinch welds) was covered in black rubber undercoated for extra protection against Chicago winters.

While the front suspension was apart, i found that the driver's side inner axle race(trans side) was scored up. Thus, the trans was pulled separate from the motor, and sent to a trans shop. The trans was taken apart, inspected,anything that bad was replaced, including the final drive unit, and then refilled with toyota OEM gear oil. The clutch I discovered to be an OEM+ from AISIN, as was the pressure plate.

The body work consisted of removing any imperfections(dents, dings scratches etc.) as well remove and prevent any rust. The front recieved the most work, as the fenders were in bad shape. i bought used fenders from a member of another forum, a brand new grill, side markers, headlight overlays and quite a few other parts. The car was then treated to a full respray, including door jambs and hatch jamb. the car was originally grey metallic, and is currently Toyota Super White, but instead of doing a single stage paint job, there are two layers of heavy PPG clear over the three layers of super white paint. The car has been clay barred a couple of times, to remove any imperfections in the paint. Not to toot my own horn, but its a really badass paint job.

Now for the interior. Its a little rough, by that i mean: the drivers seat has some tears and passenger seat is worn a bit, the steering wheel shows its age a bit, but overall its very clean. The carpets received a shampooing, and everything that is plastic or leather received a thorough cleaning. the rear seats are immaculate with very little sun wear, and look they have never been sat in.

The motor is strong and the odometer shows just under 135k miles, which is not at all what it feels like. The motor has never been opened up as far as I know, but the previous owner was a shady guy and could've left that out. What I've done as far as maintenance: plugs, wires, rotor, cap, oil changes with only synthetic Castrol. I've also replaced many of the vacuum lines with higher quality rubber lines, and i also have two new axle seals and a new fuel filter.

Now onto the modifications. There aren't many and they're pretty basic. starting with a Vibrant filter on the factory intake, the car also has a freshly rebuilt Supra CT26 with 165 wastegate, in the stock position, a Two's R' Us MBc set at 9-10psi, Vibrant FMIC core with CXRacing custom piping. Aussie downpipe coupled with a custom straight pipe exhaust to a Flowmaster turbo muffler, sounds amazing. I also have put in speed source shifter bushings for the base and the cable. there is also a cruise of japan shift **** with a custom crown royal shift boot, made by me.

Over all the car is in great condition now, and runs and drive amazing. I see about 28 highway and about 22 city, at the current boost setting. It boosts great, hits full spool at about 3k and it sounds like hell when the turbo is lit. Its never over heated on me, has a new thermostat, new upper and lower rad hose. never really had any problems what so ever with the car as far as running issues.
