and heres the hood plus the color of the car. decided to try this paint i got. base coat was chrome. top coat is candy orage witch is a little thin for my confort. gotta keep sanding the paint to get it to look right. lol
hope you like it and check back soon!

looks pretty good so far

that color is bad ass.

very cool!keep up progress!

still alot of holes to fill...and the bodykit seems abit lifted up....or should i say lifted up too much....

Nice choice of body kit and color. Got a spoiler for that baby yet? It looks just like the old JGTC one.

Nice ! have ben wondering of doing a blitz supra to....

So far so good. I just have one thing I would like to point out. The front downforce triangle thing (I dont think it has a real name) should be more of a right angle. It is a little to curved, if you look at more pictures of the body kit you will notice its not very curved and is more like a right angle. Just a tip!

Other than that, great build so far!

sweet, im looking forward to more progress

thanks for the comments. i know the body kit is a lil to round. thats just me test fitting it abit. i did some work today to get it more squarer. for a wing im thinkin stock one might look good. the body kit looks lifted because of what its sittin on. the pc case under it is curved up and its on ductape. well thanks i post pics later

Looking good so far, keep us posted!

Nice, work on that blitz front, make it look sweet

Nice work so far. It's gonna look awesome when it's finished.

sweet looking build there dude, havent seen a blitz supra before, keep up the good work

look great

you should order the SAS supra Bomex hood. would save you a lot of work !

I was thinking of buying the SAS bodykit for ITR the blitz one and make it fit an look like the supra one.. because then you alredy had the boxes att the outer ends on the front. and the two diferent cars had the same wide. So it had just ben to cut the ITR front in parts and try to fit it on the supra o´riginal front.

well ive been workin on it all day almost. engine is close to being done. did a cold air intake for it and some otherthings. one side of the body kit is very near completion. changed the color of the car. the color is now candy lime green. looks nice to me. pics will be up later

over the top. you cant really see my cold air intake in it but its there. the sway bar has a cusco decal on it but thats also hard to see. hope you like it

Looks good so far, the engine is sweet.

great job, just keep shappin that blitz front and find many refreence pics of diffrent angles to help

Green =)

Damn, thats a nice Supra. Keep the pics comin! :smokin:

changed the colour i see, kick ass job, i really like the color combo

thanks, the only reason why i changed the color of the car was i did a base coat of chrome and then i did the orange on top of it. the candy orange didnt want to stick to the chrome at all and blobed up into areas. you can barley see it in the small pic but i was very ugly. also i wont be totaly finished till later next week or so because i dont have any wheels for this car. any one care to donate?=P im goin to my LHS soon to pick up some

That kicks arse, we love green supras :)

Looks sweet! Great job on the front! Looks just like the real thing. This supra reminds me of the one covered in PASmag.

CF hood maybe?

looking Good!, its very inspirational

i would do a cf hood but i cant get any cf at my LHS

sweet!!!!I like it~
