Supra Owners Build Thread

As requested this is the Supra owners build thread, guys post quickly so you can edit those posts with your supra build I'll go first

"HotSoup" (liscence plate)

It all started with my 07 Turbo Si Coupe,


my first ever new vehicle I purchased while I was In the service. I spent roughly about 13,000$ on parts (engine, interior, exterior, ect.). And after owning it for about 1 1/2 years a small exhaust leak on the turbo manifold blew out and caught the firewall on fire, while I was driving home from the gym at 730am. After about a 10-15 min fire fight with me and a fire extinguisher(thrown to me by a random spectator) the fire was put out, but not before causeing enough damage total the car beyond repair, even most of the parts I had put on it were un salvageable. So have getting re-emburssed from my insurance which paid me 24,000$ for the civic, which goes to show don't loose your receipts. After a few weeks of looking around for a new project, I found a 97 supra TT for 20,000$, well under what they usually go for In great condition which this one def was. So I drove up to Dallas on a crazy cold day In the spring(snow on the ground In Dallas). Not 30 min after purchasing I was pulled over(no liscence plate) and was accused of stealing it and removing the plates. After clearing that up with the bill of sale, I drove it home and the build began


The car already had a long list of mods which I will edit the post after I go over the list In detail.

But the main parts/mods are

HKS Carbon Ti Exhaust(3 3/4")
True Twin Conver. (from sequential to Inline)
HKS EVC (Boost Controller)
Fuel Cut Eliminator
TRD 2.5 Bar Boost Gauge
RMM Front Lip
Greddy 3-Row FrontMount intercooler
98 Tail Lights
98 Head Lights
HID 8K
Rear Fenders rolled & cut
(will add the rest)




Parts Purchased by me

K-Sport Pro Dampner Fully Adjustable Coilovers

CCW Classics 18x9.5F & 18x11.5R Black

Nitto Invo 265/45-18F Nitto NT05R 305/45-18R(drag set-up)

Falken Azenes 315/30-18 (street)

Top Secret CF Vented Hood

Drag stance



Street stance




Will continue to update, keep I'n mind I've only had the Supra for 10 months

Well first things first I'm redoing the entire drive tn first, then upgrading the fuel system to E85 and triple densel fuel pumps along with the compound turbo setup, so we still got at least 15,500$ worth of stuff before the new turbo system will be up and running.... Good lawd that's gonna be a huge hole I'n my pocket!!!

Not including tuning and any extra stuff I need

Haha, I still didn't get what we were talking about! XD But yeah, looks good! Keeping the rear-most vent red helps to tie it all together - IF it was CF I think it would begin to look a little too much....

Yeah but I like that we basically out lined all the vent lines with the CF, I'll take some better close up pics when I wash it Saturday, also going to take some pics by a wall I'n down town Houston, should get some very nice shots, I'll post them on Monday

Here's the wall
