I did a thing. 1987 Supra Turbo

[JK9K]

Yeah, wow...those wheels look excellent!

Thanks! I appreciate it.

Hit the grand canyon as a last photo op. Cannonballed home from Flagstaff, I went from there to Des Moines, took an hour nap then finished the drive off.

Just bought stoptech pads, slotted rotors and goodridge stainless brake lines. Waiting till those show up, then will tackle the energy suspension bushing sets I have to firm up the front and rear upper and lower control arms, plus install new front upper control arms with ball joints, and front lower ball joints.

Should tighten everything up nicely.

Following that I have a power steering fluid leak to chase down, should be either the line somewhere, the reservoir or the pump, as the entire rack is new. After that, it's time for go faster parts.

It was time to wake up the summer car finally. Pulled it out of the garage, changed the oil, and replaced the sketchy brakes. I went with stoptech pads and rotors, and after bedding them in the brake feel was worlds better than it was when I put the car away.

Put about 75 miles on the car, it felt great to drive it again.

Just bought the Supra a present.
