The car is about to go into winter mode.

swfk 10-05-2016 07:39 PM

Is "winter mode" = storage mode? Or do you actually drive it through winter?

I've seen that car on CL. How much did you end up getting it for if you don't mind me asking?

I'll still be driving it during winter. The ride height will be raised and stock tires w/ all-seasons will be installed.

Thanks! I had Greens reverse mount them to give the effect of deeper lip :P

Yah haha, as zexxy posted I got it for 4..... spent another $500 so far fixing power steering high pressure line, flushing system and changing fluids, just paid another $300 on greddy profec b-spec2 boost controller and turbo timer..... ripped off spoiler and taking off skirts and rear bumper add on....

Anyone wanna "practice" their painting skills repainting the red to make the car white again at no cost? Beer as compensation and a carton of Japanese/Chinese smokes? Lol

ZetoZ 10-06-2016 01:48 PM

Zexxy, those vsxx 19x9.5j or 10.5j?

The photoshop looks nice! I'm pretty bad at avoiding pot holes, big road debris, and speed bumps. Lowering the car even more won't help haha. I went through 3 aluminum oil pans on my other car when that was on slammed suspension.

The TRD wing isn't my cup of tea. Stock internals w/ single turbo and bolt-ons. More engine work to be done this winter to run more boost.

JDM BBS LM reverse mount (+15 to the offset) for flush look:
front: 18x9 +27 offset
back: 18x10 +35 offset

trollguy 10-06-2016 02:20 PM

Oh, yeha it's not for everyone. I just remember seeing a lot of em on poopraforums back in the day! even hulk had it on his green one! lol

do ppl still use the terms BPU and APU? haha

BBS LM and Vsxx look so similar I mixed em up lol, but yah driving slammed cars suck.....back in Shanghai I had a new Sonata I slammed and kept getting stuck in garages.... even got stuck and needed security to help lift up the car leaving the Canadian embassy -.-

Living in kits don't help either since so many speed bumps compared to 6 years ago

Glad it isn't your car.

Some on Supraforums still do, but nowadays we usually just say "built internals" instead of APU haha. Even I can't remember what "BPU++++" means. I think it was Suprastore.com that started that nomenclature.

Driving and owning a slammed vehicle is definitely a PITA lifestyle. You eventually grow out of it once you've had enough with the inconvenience and cost associated from the damage and high wear and tear resulting from a slammed vehicle.

The Ridox kit is badass. I considered getting the Ridox sideskirts but decided to keep the exterior mods to a minimal.

LHD mkIV Supra ftw I wouldn't change a thing. Awesome ride!

I was so excited when I was visiting Kelowna in June and saw an all stock LHD stock red TT

ZetoZ 10-06-2016 06:33 PM

Yahaha, major pita when you have to slow down sometimes to a dead stop to get past some roads....... this is what my old ride in Shanghai looked like
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2...psvu4nyiz9.jpg

Had to raise it a bit as before it couldn't even get into my parking space

bananana 10-06-2016 07:01 PM

The 400lb, 38hp parallel twin underneath the Duc bodywork. Blasphemy!!!!!!!!! I think I puked in my mouth a little.

Amaru 10-06-2016 08:04 PM

Thanks! Even when I'm driving my Supra, I get pretty excited and giddy when I see other Supras regardless of LHD/RHD. For some reason, the RHD Supra drivers never wave back at me.

HOT! I didn't know they have that model in that colour. Sometimes I think lowered car owners should consider installing titanium skid plates for their front bumper and underbody just to avoid the cringe and heart break whenever their cars scrape the ground.

88SupraT 10-06-2016 09:36 PM

Zexxy that is one awesome looking supra, I want it so I can have it next to my MKIII haha.

I haven't seen many people using the apu name much anymore.

From what I remember the adding of the plus's to the bpu came when one started adding things like cam gears, cams and injectors to the stock twin motor.
