ugh, one of the biggest flaws with supras is the lack of traction. and that TRC is just the worst, rather than giving you 'some' power during a skid, it just shuts the whole sha-bang off. friggin annoying. even with good 265's on the back they still lack traction. then couple that with an UBER 2j with a auto trans that is gear all up the ****, you have all the makings of epic fail in the wet.

but still quite a lot of fun.

oh yeah and the pic is a full vielside kit. all genuine including the wheels. and a GZ (i think) auto trans, full leather with targa roof. bought by a very rich chinese kid. :p

NICE! at least they have shielded that pod filter. FMIC and those wheels actually look really good man.

are your headlights a bit yellow? most supra headlights get this crusty yellow film on them after a while. Burson sell a headlight cleaning kit which i have used once on a soarer. brought them up to look brand new. highly recommend.
