Drag Race Supra (sard/tamiya combo)

Yet another Supra build from me to go along with the other 2 projects i have (had to put the widebody aside for a few days)

like the title says this one is going to be a drag specific supra, and will most likely end up mimicking a combination of a few big boy drag supras.

as you will see i am using the Sard supra chassis with the Tamiya supra body. this way i have a race chassis already made with a roll cage and everything.


to fit the chassis into the body there was some modification required up front, but not much. the tamiya 2jz is going into the car, and as you can see i used the tamiya (street) dashboard to make the car look more like real drag supras. the seat is 90% done with carbon fiber etc.

anyways, here are the pics:

the cage half painted with the dashboard drying




here is the steering wheel with the seat





the drag wheels/tires going on the car (skinnies up front) already made to look like they did a few burnouts



here is the front modded to fit the street body


hopefully tmrw i can get the body/chassis painted so i can start putting it so me what together. i still need scratch build an engine mount to connect to the sard chassis. This 2jz is going to have a MONSTER single turbo (not bigger than a real life drag turbo though) that MIght require some hood modification to fit


what do you guys think?
