Well, I WAS thinking about keeping it, but it's gonna stay with me for now
Full specs at www.tangcla.com/car.html - at least what I remember of my mods! Spent $14000 on mods alone...

Man, you would be crazy to sell this.
Its the best looking one I've ever seen.
Very nice! They remind me of a Sprinter
AE86, if only they came in two door, RWD.
LOL. But seriously looking at yours, I feel
like buying one my self. Great job mate!!!

hehe, don't worry, I'm not selling it! I have plans to do a 7A-GE conversion and hopefully in the not-so-distant future a 7A-GTE or 7A-GZE conversion too

Have you seen the 3SGTE conversion at Fensport.co.uk
It looks like a crazy machine, have you thought about
droping one of those in. More $$$$$ though.
Your plan sounds tasty as well, personaly I'd go the turbo,
rather then the supercharger.

I dunno, i need the car to remain legal
so that's why I'm thinking of a straight turbo/supercharge conversion.

Technically at the moment, the legislation is that as long as they are not blue, white or red, and that the tube is not directly visible or the light is not pulsing, then yes.
It's a bit of a grey area at the moment

I used to HAVE the Sportivo kit on my car... this one looks way better.
Here's an early photo of my car with the Toyota Sportivo kit (without the spoiler riser bars, which I now have ) and the Quad rims:

The car has a 7A-FE. Not huge on power, but gotta love the torque! Can do a standing start in second gear!
I bought my Raybrig stuff from Hong Kong when I went back there for a holiday in 12/03-01/04.

Likewise... torque, great for city driving. I give it a fair bit of push though Don't usually see the other side of 5500rpm
