After a lot of discussion we decided to rebuild the Titan Motorsports Copper Supra for 2012. So as usual we are logging a lot of pictures and developing some new items and parts for these cars that will be built on the Titan Motorsports Copper Supra. As many of you are aware, we had a minor accident at TX2K11 in the finals of the Drag Race. In an effort to update the safety aspects of the car as well as repair the vehicle we decided to build the car from the ground up. This will entail more work then just repairing the vehicle, but the end goal is to have the fastest and quickest Street Supra's as well and one the nicest ones to hit the drag strip. The first build on this car was in 2001-2002 so its only fitting for this car to get a rebuild as it won a lot of races for a decades time. Now its time to update it so it should hopefully be a leader and stand out car for the Supra community for another decade.

Here are a few pictures of the car after the accident, we put a stock Supra wheel and suspension on it, to get it out of the trailer and into the shop. The fender of course came off. We start the stripping process here.

Here we decided to modernize the engine bay, which we do now on a lot of show cars. Complete welding and cleanup of the engine bay so that all the panels are smooth when painted. This is a lot of effort, but to get the best show look in an engine bay, its a must. Approximately 100 holes will be closed up. These holes are from things like the factory air intake, wiring harness clips, bolt holes for various factory pieces that are removed.

Had a custom dash made, so that it can be fitted and give the car a good look and feel; made to fit/look like the OEM dash. We had a factory dash before and the structure is really "floppy" when there is nothing underneath holding it together. Always has been an irritation for me, so this dash fixes that problem.

Hell. Yes.

That is very fucking sick. I love the motor plate with the timing belt on the other side of it. seems impractical... but it is cool anyway.
