Hi, Jill. You made it to SM! Wheel lippage is nice to have. How is you lip action coming along? I need more front lip.



The rear lip action is decent.

At Hellaflush 8 in Santa Monica beach, a couple of months ago.

On the left of the picture: me (red sweatshirt), Kevin, and Ken (Shineautoproject). On the right is the long line of people waiting to pay for their parking spot. We had a Supra MKIV homie stand line for us. We're happy about not being in line. LOL.

My manifold is finally done and fits.

Here's a test fitment of the manifold/turbo/wastegate setup. The manifold is a twin scroll, dual wastegate setup. The wastegates are Tial. The Comp turbo has: anti-surge housing, 67mm billet compressor wheel, 0.68 turbine wheel, twin scroll exhaust flange, triple ball bearing, oil and water cooling. As part of the single turbo upgrade, I will be swapping to a VVTI head.


(This is not in my engine bay. We used another car for the test fitment.)

I think I'm stuck with it. LOL.



March 1, 2012 is the scheduled start of the project: Toyota Fest 2012. Stay tuned!


I haven't done anything to the Supra since 2010, but I recently replaced my Optima Red top with a PC680 to free up some space in the engine bay.
