Jimmy, I can't stress this enough. Show us EVERYTHING you do with this. Living out my dreams! Think Harry Metcalfe. Minor or major changes i wanna see it all. Also, I'd put fixing the bodywork at a higher priority haha. I'd change the colour, fix the panels, fit different wheels, obv, and give it considerable beans. Saw one in a sainsbury car park when I was 12 in a deep blue / purple and fell in love! Boost gauges down the A pillar haha.

@@tieflingsimp3579 being a successful youtuber has nothing to do with being successful in life. nor of getting through mental health issue. during my late teens and 20's I struggled with mental health issues, as i learnt to manage them in my late 20 and early 30's i was broke, pretty much homeless and in a dead end job. One of the keys to learning to live with and manage mental health is that it is not achieving your goals that is important, it is the way you approach life. What you measure success and failure on, how you judge yourself. IF you view is "to be happy i need to achieve X" then your never be happy the goal is alway moving. If people have a view is that money / fame makes it easier to deal with mental health issues then they don't yet understand. 20 years + since i reached my lowest point I no longer have money or job issues, but i still struggle with mental health issues.

To quote Tavarish: ALWAYS make questionable choices. Buying a mildly crappy old Supra absolutely fits into that. Actually to be fair, it's a decent condition, low mileage Mk IV that hasn't been illicitly touched by a series of Chad's, aside from the Halford's wheels and that utter dustbin on the back, so it's a pretty decent buy actually. What ever else you, please, please keep the doorbell horn, because that is hilarious. As for a name: an old friend said you should see if the last 3 letters of the registration will make a name, (His car was 'JSN', so was called Jason). Apparently the name 'Hiko' (HKO) exists in Japanese and means 'Princess', so I vote that. And yes, I did spend FAR too long thinking about that, but a car has got to be named appropriately.

Your clutch pedal issue will be a leaky seal in the master cylinder. You could try to recondition it with a clutch kit, but realistically you're better off just replacing the whole cylinder altogether. I had the same problem with my ST-205 GT-FOUR, and my attempt at reconditioning only gave me six months before it failed again. On the plus side, once you can't disengage the clutch at all, you quickly get much better at rev matching (although having to use the starter motor to get yourself moving isn't ideal).

You did all of that in the past hour?? Okay, just kidding😆. Good on you. I live in America, where cars are a necessity, and I've owned many since I was 14, when I got my learner's permit. I was lucky enough to get my dad's old 92 Acura Integra, and unfortunately, I drove the nuts off of it, and I sold it after nearly killing it. I've just driven old Honda Accord's ever since, but I've been inspired to get a car that I can race. I thought of old MX5, but being 6'4", it's probably not the best fit, if you know what I mean. I'm looking into BMW's, and I'm thinking of making it into a rally car. We'll see where it leads. I do live 45 minutes away from a circuit, so I might make it a circuit racer instead. We'll see. But good luck with your MX5!

@@jaimykok6533 I have driven a few stock Miatas, and they were so much fun. But I've also driven an E36 BMW 328i that was set up for track use, and it was fantastic. It was incredibly well sorted, and as lightweight as possible, with a 50/50 weight balance, and a mostly stock engine, but unfortunately, my roommate bought it, and he's a drifter. He turned it into a drift car, and although it is a great car for what he's using it for, he more or less butchered it by putting an angle kit on it, and beating and banging with other drifters. I wish I had the money at the time that he bought it, since he got it for only $3000 (pre-pandemic). It would have been a great platform to build on for racing. I do think it would be cool to buy a Miata that is built for track use, and race it in a Miata series, but ever since I drove that E36 (before it was ruined...), I've been dying for one. But, because I'm interested in rallying, I think a BMW could be a good option for that, instead. Maybe I'll get a Miata for circuit racing, AND a car for rallying...🤔

as an actual owner of a '95 NA Supra in the exact same colour, I am happy you have bought one jimmer. Mine is the same colour as yours and also suffering with the paint issue, slight oil leak are the only issue i've had with it and i will have owned the car 10 years in may. It is shear stock and only had a new starter and alternator put in. Internals are fine, clutch is still stock (plenty of life left too) at 193,000kms, just the few seal leaks and visual issues with paint and body work. The NA had 2 versions, SZ and SZ-R the SZ is the one we both have 5 speed and the SZ-R is the 6 speed. (most games run the SZ-R. Look forward to seeing what you do, as someone who can''t afford to do what youre about to do. Also that black lip on the front wing should be an active spoiler, mine deploys when i hit 100kph (60mph) and rectracts at 70kph

I think in it's current state, the car probably make 170hp, and after I good fluid change and cleaning you might see it get a bit closer to that 200hp mark.

Jimmy I have a Supra too and the horn thing can be resolved. When you buy an NRG or Nardi wheel with a horn with quick release Kit, the horn wire on the steering wheel clock needs to be spliced with a copper piece of metal in contact with the horn ring. There's plenty of articles on the UK forum so any questions ask there for sure. The 5 speed is also a relatively weak box compared to the V161 with a weaker differential. Good luck with the car, can't wait to see what is done with it.

Jimmer, the non-VVTi 2JZ from the NA supras have the best flowing heads for higher horsepower applications. If you put a multilayer headgasket in it, the compression is the same as the turbo model AND you have bigger ports in the head for better flow once turbo is installed. I'm currently getting a touch under 500hp at the wheels with this setup on a baby 40mm turbo....is maximum torque from 3000rpm. The diff and w58 gearbox won't tolerate much more than 400hp though so take it easy unless putting in a V160 or even an R154 in (they fit if you have the right extension for the shifter mount). A supra with good suspension and tyres and a small turbo for mid-range goodness will be a weapon on the track even at 350-400hp. Love your work, Jimmer, can't wait to see what happens with it.

The obvious name should be Doorbell. Also, congrats! I myself am very happy to see supra content.. Somewhat biased because i also own a mkiv and have been fixing ut over the winter. As yours is a N/A you will have a open diff in the rear end so i would look into getting a LSD-swap, cheapest is to get a TT 200mm diff. For chassie upgrades you could probably get some Nice HKS coilovers, do a big brake kit in the front and chassi brace front and rear. More longterm is polybushes and adjustable arms.. Enginewise id say, get N/A-T kit, throw some rods, a TT headgasket, aftermarket ecu and be done with it. The W58 transmission is not the best i would say.. Most people would do the R154 from the mk3 supra swap, there are good upgrade kits for them out there.. Looking forward to your content on the supra!

The doorbell takes me back to my first moped. It had sport handlebars(very cool) so no room for the electric starter button. It was replaced by a doorbell that was placed somewhere in the side bodywork.

When you said the inspiration for the purchase was 'Track Attack Supra' (AKA 'BigNumTT') I was grinning like a moron. That guy knows how to drive these things and I hate to see Supras living their whole lives at the drag strip, they can go round corners exceptionally well with the right mods. Excited to see what's to come :D

Hey Jimmy two major things to check on the supra is the diff mount as they perish badly and the mental brake lines just as they go over the rear subframe (passenger side) for corrosion. If you need parts check out garage whifbitz they have everything you need for a supra.

Step 1: Remove 2JZ - GE Step 2: Insert 2JZ-GTE Step 3: Upgrade to UK spec brakes Step 4: Upgrade the Suspension Step 5: Change Exhaust (Blitz Nur Spec R or HKS Ti) Step 6: Change the Wheels Step 7: Respray Can also upgrade the clutch and other components, maybe some new seats :D

Hey Jimmy, good find. Having done this myself a number of times, the absolute first thing I would do is to get it on a lift and check all the suspension bushings. After that many years, some of them are bound to be dry rotting. Fix the brakes and find the oil leaks. Just don't go nuts with Delrin bushings or Heim joints when replacing stuff. That will make it uncomfortable and noisy more than your exhaust cannon. It's a slippery slope once you get on it. Enjoy it and looking forward to content on your experience. As for a name, you can call it the Silver Pike.
