Sup dudes, MrTupas here (pronounced like Tupac, but with an "S" at the end btw). Used to play this game like 24/7 last year but me being a poor ass ended up selling it. So, after many months, I decided to pick up this game again and thought I might as well start out fresh.



The 2nd love of my life <3

So, I got bored with the car already which gave me an excuse to buy some new toys Smile

Bought a bride off a friend. Apparently he ordered a pair but ended up sending him 2 pairs...oh well!

Drove to TF as soon as school got out. I must say, TF did a FANTASTIC job! As soon as I got home, got the coils, wheels and seats installed.

So I started sensing that the engine was getting tired...first it started burning oil, all sorts of smoke was coming out of the exhaust, and started overheating after driving it for a few minutes...


Lock please. GS300_2jz_30

So I went junkyard hunting and found a pretty low mileage 2j out of another totaled sc...Did I mention it has vvt-i? SCORE! Price? Free! They just took my old engine as payment Smile

While I was pulling out the engine, I decided that I to make a few upgrades...

Ordered a new clutch to handle the power.

Took about a week to finish the swap seeing as I am no where near as mechanically inclined as you guys, so I decided to just take my time and go at my own pace. Brought the car to Ill Garage to re-tune for the new turbo.

Just got the car back in time for Spaz's track day...boy does it feel great!

Mini update with in game pics!

Ryan - Thanks dude! And not to be rude...but we met before? Because I honestly don't remember haha. Guessing at some public lobby?

Spaz - Haha of course! If I could do this in real life, this thread wouldn't even exist lol. So I figured I might as well make it as fun as it can be.

Well I haven't really updated in awhile...

11/26

On the way to work some douche driving a GTR thought it would be cool to give me a love tap...
Lock please. GetPhoto

Which resulted me crashing through the guardrails...
Lock please. GetPhoto

Somehow I was lucky to have come out fine. As for the car...well fuck.

Lock please. 8226529274_2008a5f02a

If you think thats bad, its much worse under...fucked up my suspension, subframe, and the driver side strut tower is cracked.

I was pissed. It didn't help that the dude in the GTR pulled a hit and run as well...Got it towed back to my house and had no idea what to do. After sitting for hours in the garage, just staring at it, I could only think that I already came too far to give up now on this build. One my pop's friends owns a body shop and was more than happy to let me use his garage to revive the SC.

First thing I did was buy second hand aero from a fellow Club Lexus member.
Lock please. IMG_0875

Sold my Ruckus so I could buy this totaled SC400 as a parts car.
Lock please. Lexus%20wreck4

Pulled out the front subframe from the 400 to replace the fucked up one.
Lock please. 4ebc1e01ada6e_228433n

Ordered some D-max 25mm front fenders.
Lock please. Images?q=tbn:ANd9GcRiId-wVXKUUBuavWPwWj8Qi-Kg2rqFzvEjkJIaNKgdLPMheNe3


I've always wanted an AE86 so I decide to get so I could get around since the Lexus was out of commission with the money insurance sent me to cover the accident...Friend told me about a stupid clean 1985 Corolla GTS that TRK was selling. It was really nice, rust free, factory paint was still good, and best of all, it was just his daily meaning it wasn;t abused at all!

Lock please. Happy-crying-face-tumblr-meme

Then I found out that my friend can't read and that the ad online actually said "1985 Corolla GTS SWAP" The previous owner before TRK replaced the crappy 4ac with a 4ag but still kept the sr5 rear end as well. Went out for a test drive and I think it was pretty much safe to say that it handled like shit. But it still looked cool?

Lock please. Tumblr_lu58ulB0mk1qegw8v

Because I really needed a car I just said "fuck it" and settled for it.

Hated the car since day one to be honest. I didn't even drive it home...I let someone else drive it because I didn't really care so much for it.

I actually started plans to replace the the stock rear end with the GTS rear end and swap in a BEAMS 3s-ge from the Altezza's but then couldn't source all the parts I needed to build this project (Turn10 took out the swap)

So I ended up selling it to Kru Jones because I didn't wanna deal with it anymore.

The only pic I had of the car was when it finally left my driveway haha

11/28

Couple days after I sold the Hachi, my friend told me about a dude in Philly, who is known as Camaro to some, who was selling an MK4 Supra. Apparently it was pretty built and was basically a turn key drift car. He was only asking for about $35,000 which seemed pretty cheap for a built Supra if you ask me...Anyway, I got in contact with him and we were able to work out a deal...

ROAD TRIP!

Called up some of the guys and of course they were down! Picked up the dudes, went to jewel to stock up on snacks and what not, and we were off!

Mum was also nice enough to let me borrow her car.
Lock please. 2Q==

Got to Camaro's place in about 13 hours...I was stunned how beautiful she looked. The pictures that he posted on the ad did no justice at all. I was so excited, we didn't even spend more than 5 minutes there.

The drive back home was a blast! Got pulled over 4 times for having no plates, random dudes on the road challenging me to a race, and got home 3 hours before my friend who drove my moms car haha. As for the car itself, its a freakin rocket! 547whp on the dyno on a MILD tune...one could only imagine how much potential this monster has. I was afraid that I was gonna die to be honest.

Lock please. GetPhoto

Snapped a quick pic at the beach when we came back to Chicago.
Lock please. GetPhoto

A nice turn came up and I suddenly had the urge to do some sliding...

Small update on the SC as well. Decided to get it repainted so I pulled the engine out and got everything sanded down.

Got a sun roof delete as well. Why? Because racecar!
Lock please. 8232013106_ece65cf096_z

Got most of my FD spec roll cage installed. Just need to get my door bars welded and install the aero and fenders and it'll be ready for the paint booth.

Picked up a new wheel and quick release set up at Fizz Autosports!

Planning to pick up a hydraulic ebrake setup and some new wheels since the Volks are getting refinished from the accident. Hopefully by then, it'll be ready for Chia's Matsuri event.

12/1/12

So I still needed a daily...as I've already said before, the Lexus is out of commission. As for the Supra...well thats out of the question.


So I bought another Toyota.

GetPhoto (5) by MrTupas, on Flickr

Actually, I lied. It's really a Lexus. The seller originally bought it as a shell with a rebuilt title due to being totaled. I was pretty suprised when the seller told me this, because it looked right it came straight out the factory. No sign of damage at all. Car was pretty much stock except for the tomei lsd

The conversion was done really well. Looks exactly like an Altezza.

From the emblems

To a RHD swap!

Only problem was that he was in the process of rebuilding the beams 3sge he had planned to drop in.

Luckily I had another 2jz at home. It was originally supposed to be a backup motor for the SC, but this works too.
Lock please. DSC02957

Trailered the car back home, but not before stopping at Touge Factory to get some new toys...

Stance GR+
Lock please. STN_1326561557-350x350

And some aero
Lock please. Db6a015a

The SC is still in the paint booth so I don't think it'll make it to the Matsuri event tomorrow. So it looks like the IS is gonna come out to play.
