So I went to fit my 18" TSR Craner wheels. (The ones I'm trying to sell)
In my opinion it is a little boring but does not look bad. (Could be better)

The TSR is also 5kg lighter per wheel (20kg incl tyre) vs OEM Detroits. (25kg incl tyre)

Here is some pics:

So I went to dyno this morning. I made a good 243wkw and 532nm on the wheels. :rollsmile:
This run was done with 1 tin NF ultra mixed to Full tank BP 95 and water meth injection and Revo P3 setting. :=):



Then I thought I should try out my new 500 shot NOS system


As you can see I made a healthy 492wkw and 1237Nm :roflol::roflol::roflol:
(This is just a joke...something went wrong with the dyno at that moment..thus made the hectic spike :roflol::roflol::roflol:)

What are you talking about man!! lol. Golfs get massive power from just cone filters. If I fart in your car, there will be so much power, the torque will spin the Earth in the other direction.

So I quickly replaced the bulbs around the car. It was very simple and easy. One thing I noticed is when you replaced the oem with the led...and the led does not come on...just turn it around and put it back again...I think it is polar sensitive.
The only other place which I struggled with was the fog lights...it was quite hard to "clip" it in.

Also....im not too happy about the LED fog light colour vs OEM Xenon headlights. They differ quite a bit. As the LED is more "white" and the xenon headlights are more "yellowish". But nonetheless....the LED fog lights look a lot better than the normal halogen fogs.

Here is some pictures:

Hey guys......so I sold my beloved Supra. It was a very sad sight to see how she left my home!!! The worst part is, the sale happened so fast that i couldnt even take her for a last drive! But on the bright side...i got a little deposit for my own place one day. New beginings are always exciting!

Here is some last pictures i took of her:

I hope they treat you well and look after you like i did. I hope they also breath some new life into you with a nice big single turbo.

Bye my Soup.

Coming up:

Some 4 pot brembo calipers, new pads, braided brake lines coupled with brembo drilled 330mm discs.
I think it is the same setup as on the Porsche Boxster.

I will take more detailed pictures once I do the installation.


My Powerbrake GT discs + PB05 Endless pads will be up for sale soon.
