some pics i could have posted earlier


some powder coated parts (bracket for the ARC oil cooler and the power steering cooler)


parts installed


authentic ARC undershroud

then i had to came up with a solution for the towing hook (is a must have to have one on the car here in germany). since i couldnīt use the oem one because the front bumper interfered with it, i had to weld on a bracket for the new Top Secret titanium tow hook



installed on the car



and one more of the front with the Gruppe-M ram air intake



stay tuned

some AN parts just came in plus the steering hub for the Supra....plus the front is painted .....it pretty much feels like xmas today

on to the pics (just have only one of the fittings for the oil pressure sensor and the oil temp. sensor) iīll be using the Greddy informeter touch to display these valuesso stay tuned since the center console will also be modded

so i had to change some things....not sure if i like the new position of the sensors, but anyways....here a the pics:


position of the first sensor


and maybe the position of the second sensor...not sure yet about that or how to fit it into the oil line

finally had some time on the weekend to finish everything (regarding the oil cooler)
here are some pics:



installed another oil temperatur sensor in the oil pan as backup for the Greddy unit.
so what is still left to do is install the front bumper (which is already back from the paint shop), get the lines from the sensor attached and it's done sounds like pretty quick job, but i'm sure that it's not have to fabricate some brakets and modify the center console for the Greddy infometer touch.....so stay tuned
