Hey guys!
Been a few years since ive been around the 6gc world, in that time ive gone through school and worked my way up in life. through that time i never forgot the passion i had for my 6gc and told myself one day i would own one again. the day came and the opportunity could not be passed up. over 2000 miles, one college football game(rough night lol) and way too much in toll money got me to my dream, a dream that cant be told with words. so i welcome you, my st205 gt4. (pictures soon to come) ![]() This post has been edited by 4-eyed-freek: Sep 5, 2014 - 8:29 PM -------------------- It takes 8,460 bolts to assemble an automobile, and one nut to scatter it all over the road.

Hey guys! After many weeks of debate on where i was exactly going to put they car (big garage or single car) I decided that i was going to use the bigger of the two due to the fact that it was well light and better heat. I finally got around to getting some good work done. I fist started off with the front brakes. i bought a set used to have them turned, sand blasted, and then painted. Im very pleased with how the results turned out. I also replaced the front pads with new oem supra pads. Once complete with that small task i worked on raising the car up enough for me to undercoat it fully. This included the wheel wells, under body, and also using rust prevention under the door sills to protect the rockers. About 7 hours went into undercoating the car and Im once again extremely pleased with how it turned out. I also removed the pass fender to have it painted and fixed due to the patch job where the usdm turn signal was. My next project will be replacing the rear struts to the trd coils and then replacing the lower control arms.
Started off with this... rust ridges and just a rust bucket to begin with. ![]() This is the end product of having them turned, blasted, and cleaned in a solvent wash. Looks like new!! But not to my standards! ![]() ![]() Spent well over and hour taping each one of these monsters off to insure the paint would look perfect! ![]() I then had my friend prime them and paint them with a high temp paint. (ceramic paint i believe..) ![]() Installed!! ![]() Same process will be done for the rears as well. You can also see from the pictures the undercoat that was applied. (the same product used to do tundra & tacoma frames at dealerships) ![]() Getting that darn fender fixed up, should look 10x better when done! ![]() Cant wait to get her back on the road in spring!! ![]() -------------------- It takes 8,460 bolts to assemble an automobile, and one nut to scatter it all over the road.
