Hey there everybody,
I am spewie from the netherlands and i drive an ST-205 for about a year now. Doing some very interesting upgrades at the moment at the garage from Arnout, more known in the supra world (supras.nl, also on supraforums.com... uk and .au). Because i just put on the C-one front bumper, i was looking for sites to sell my old one at and so.... I came across this excellent forum. Im GLAD i found you guys and hope to learn a lot here |

spewie For how long are you running with the custom turbo and the other upgrades on your car??What boost??I see that you are not using ECU...
About your stock bumber you should put it on ebay or post in the Buy/Sell Section of the site. |

for my upgrades, check my profile
We are still in the process of putting on the custum turbo. The turbo should be able to run on 2.0 to 2.5 bar boost (which is A LOT), but not with my stock engine. For that you would need new pistons, new cams, new crankshafts, lower compression, different clutch (might need that now already though) and quite possible we would need to make it be able to rev higher (computer setting). Anyway, because I don't have all that, the turbo will be set on around 1.0 bar boost and I used to drive with 1.2 bar boost with my stock turbo. I am using stock ECU by the way, I just have a piggyback that adjusts fuel/air ratio and ignition timing when there is boost. I bought the piggyback soon after i bought the car and i think i made a mistake buying that. I put the bumper on ebay, and every forum i could find, thanks for the tips guys, very appreciated. |

Hey Tufy and Magic, I checked out both your cars and they both are awesome!
I see Tufy has the C-one front bumper as well :-) And ill have the same wing as you guys, though i think the C-ONE wing is actually nicer and I now regret not buying it right when i bought the rest of the bodykit, same story with the hood. Magic, do you drive on the lefthand side of the road in cyprus, since i see skylines on the back on one of your picture? I am thinking about getting one next, R-34, but im hesitating between supra and skyline. Toyota does build the stronger engine. Those skylines yours as well? |

Thanks for the kind words people ;-)
I can't stop surfing on this site lol I got a question for Tufy though, on your avatar it says you drove 290, in order to get that speed, did you have to make the car be able to rev higher, or do you have a different gear box? |
