Well I've been a bit shit at updating this, shes been off the road over the winter, but finally, she's back on the road!

Put some tax on her then realised I didn't have enough money to actually run about in her this month so it's been limited to a few days here and there!

But anyway! Pics of new rims!

They're hamann replicas, and they were a steal at the price I paid, it was cheaper to buy these than to replace three tires on my last set!

They're obviously staggered, 8.5's on the front and 9.5's on the back. Tires are a little narrower to allow a little stretch :)

This was how I got them in the depths of winter, they were only 8 months old but already had been curbed quite badly

So I started the usual winter project for me, a wheel refurb!

On the car

Some decent dish

Very close on the arch, much more aggressive offset than my last wheels

Annoyingly I curbed this one on the first day I had it back, but oh well, have another refurb in winter I guess!

And finally one of the car as she sits

So to celebrate nearly 5 years of ownership thought I'd give the supra a couple of little treats!

So I'd been on the hunt for a new exhaust for my na for a while, as since I've had it it's had a blitz nur spec s rear box, and I fitted a cw first decat.

Unfortunately the stock (with no boxes) midsection is looking pretty tired, so I knew a new exhaust would be on the cards.

So I bought a kakimoto cat back from a member on here, (initially I wasn't sure what it was, but after some research I'd discovered it was a kakimoto) it had a few battle scars, but seemed ok, however on closer inspection all of the baffling was missing from the rear scilencer :(

So after a text to the seller, he kindly agreed to fund the work to get it sorted:thumbs:

So I gave it a cleanup anyway in preparation of getting it sorted

So I took the rear silencer to a local company who I'd seen had very good reviews called flow dynamics in Bletchley, spoke to dan who was a top bloke, and left the rear section with them, got a message the next morning telling me it was all done, and recieved these pictures!

Dead chuffed :trampoline::yahoo: would highly reccomend flow dynamics, as after a chat with dan I discovered that they make manifolds, and even work with titanium!

I also yesterday re-instated its identity...

Couldn't find a original plate for it, so used a sticker as a mask and sprayed it on with high heat paint.
