Took better shots of MKIV

Well now that most of my old parts are gone, and cars are sold, I'm settling in and got a chance to pick up new wheels. This has always been my favorite spot at night (Ward 16 garage) since it has the better lighting and NO traffic after mid-nite. Didn't get a chance to take more since security was actually working and booted me, but not before complimenting the car.

These were taken on some basic settings with a Canon G5.



3-piece SSR GT3, Fr18x9 +38 245/45/18, Rr18x10 +40 275/35/18


Yes, I need a tripod.

Looks good...I normally could care less but I really like those rims.

Can you fit anymore tire in there? I feel like there's not enough but don't know much about the Supra platform to be definitive.

Didn't really care for the rims myself at first either. I would liked to have gone up to 295-305's in the rear and 255's up front, but, these were cheap so I settled for now. There's plenty of room, though now wheel gap is gone and they're not sunken in like stockers.

Thx Dave. Guy's name was Chad and drives a white SC400 in Waipio area.

Yup, bought the rims yesterday.

Always my dream car right up with the Skyline to own someday... just didn't picture it til I was at least married, or back from a long deployment.

That's a really nice Supra.

I really wanted to buy one before I started the project on the suby. I really do regret it.

I've always thought that the JZA80 (Supra) and the FD3S (RX-7) are the sexiest cars ever made. Yours does not disappoint...
And look how happy it is to be your car, it's smiling so wide you can see it's 'teeth'!

Thanks GOKU, but funny you say that...

Story on Supra:
I was looking into Bran808's Grids FS, and possibly UTEC and bigger turbo for the WRX. On lunch break I was killing time on CL (looking for WRX parts) and decided to look up Skylines, NSX's, etc., then saw the Supra. I just wanted to drive it since I knew my WRX would be a bargaining tool for show-of-proof that I have credit . Honestly had no intentions on buying it.

For giggles I applied for a loan and got approved , and for kicks threw him an offer after the test drive and he took it . Figuring I'd "regret it" if I continued with the WRX, I took the Supra, and dumped my projects.

niiice! did you buy that from a guy named jervin?
My fault Dave I mis-interpreted your question. The Supra was bought from Tony in Mililani. Wheels were bought from Chad.

No doubt considering both GSX and WRX were sold in the same week I bought the Supra.
