Nice car, dude. That color is something you don't see everyday and certainly better than Joe's fairy blue. Nice rims, too. How about a little under the hood action?

Niiiiice. I like those rims a lot, what are they?

they're BRS Poison's... I don't know if they make em anymore, and they've had to be repaired a couple of times due to some late night high speed pothole encounters... so i'm starting to be pretty gentle with em :)

The colour is the Burgandy Pearl, and it's due to be resprayed in that colour before mid January (I've got the Supra and my F250 entered in one of the local car shows, and they're both getting fresh paint before the show) :-)

I've been looking on and off for a lip for it... a mate of mine recently picked one up off a front cut from Japan... So maybe we can rip a copy off that, or otherwise I'll have to keep on looking...

I'll have a look for some engine bay shots, tho it could do with a bit more polishing... It's got a pair of Japanese spec CT-12b's under the bonnet, apexi pod and a little custom pipework, but other than that it's fairly boring stuff... The real work will probably start after the show when I plan to put in a new ECU (Autronic) and am giving a lot of consideration to ripping the twins off and going to say a T04R or a similarly large ball bearing jobbie...

oh... while i've got your attention.. the paint on the rims needs touching up.... what are people ideas on colour for them? The polished ring would be staying polished, just the spokes and centre would be getting sprayed... At the moment, my 2 main options are keeping them the same colour, or painting them satin black... But I'm open to any suggestions...

Black spokes with a polished lip is a little too popular for my taste, but it still looks good. I would like to see that on your Supra.

I'd leave the wheels the same color, they look really good against the burgandy.

I agree with Brewster, I think they look really good that colour.

Yeah... I do quite like the silver... Which is why it's a hard choice for me to make...

You can always go back if you don't agree with it.

yeah, thats true... eihter way, it's not happening for a while now... i've had to cancel paint jobs on both my cars due to some scum stealing 2 camera lenses from me... had to shell out $2.3k so i could keep taking photos....
