another $70-80k........ :o :o

Yep, the purple one already owes me over $100k, ! spent $13k on new parts. Every panel is new, along with hinges, clips, nuts, bolts etc. Plus the 2lt motor/gearbox I spent $13k on is old news. The V6 cost $4500, the Supra 6sp box $3500, the new clutch $3500, diff $1500 etc etc.

Needed to complete:

Brakes $15k
Wheels $8k
M800 $12k (with dash, injectors,pumps etc)
Cage $6k
Engine/box/diff mounts $2k+
Suspension $6k+
Paint (again) $8-10k
Turbos $5k
Manifolds $3k
Exhaust $2-3k

Plus even more I've probably left out. That's without even building a motor. I'd love to make a hybrid 6G74 3.8lt with twin cam heads.

Eeasily done! The front 335mm Alcon upgrade on my white JA cost around $4k doing it cheap.

I'm going to use either 380/410mm on the front and 355mm on the back of the V6. Alcon's best calipers are $8k each, so you could spend $40k on brakes if you wanted!

8k for metal discs with holes in them, i think i'd go throw rocks at the people who claimed they are worth that much, life time guarantee? are they hand made? :o

Ive decided to stay with the 12 valve and develop it insted, its a good base, having been rebult and having forged pistons and all.
Im going to make a MPI manifold for it and put a 20g wheel in the TC06.
Should go fast enough for me.
Thanks for your input guys.
