Just picked up my new 1992 soarer (128k on the clock apparently) in the metallic green.

-Stock as a rock external minus a lip
-stock rims (about to change that with the 18z10 work vs-xx I have laying about)
-Lowered (adjustable suspension is disabled)
-Single ct 26 on a custom high mount
-looks like stock exhaust too, again something to change
-side mount intercooler.. (going to change)
-folding electric mirrors
-sunroof

Gotta grab an fmic and a boost controller/gauge I have no idea what it's running right now.

I'll throw up photos tomorrow afternoon.

The ct26 is probably off a VVTi Soarer (though it could be off a number of toyo's), it kicks in around 3k. I haven't really had a chance to open her up or take her down to be dyno run. Once some stuff is done I'll take her to be tuned and tested and maybe a run at the drags.

It's still no slouch though, I'll be sure to post results when I have them :-)

As for the wiper, the previous owner apparently liked it that way, I will be making it a little more discrete and putting a proper SET of wipers on there.

There is a fan, there are actually two fans, there seems to be a large fan and one off to the left hand side of the car attached to a temp sensor and relay that cools the parts the other one misses if it gets too hot.
