Wow, you are an incredible story teller! I loved this video so much. You have reminded me that it's time to start prepping for SIV 2024 NOW!!! I guess it's time to install my PMM big brake kit 😉!!!
Thank you so much and thank you for persuading and believing in me to make the journey ☺️
🙌🏼 Awesome story worthy of VINwiki 😁
hell yeah thank you!
Fuck yea bro! I plan to drive my MK3 to the smoky mountains and SIV at some point from Houston
heck yeah dooo itttt :D
Dang! What an adventure, glad you made it there and back without too much trouble. Absolutely amazing accomplishment! Congratulations!
Thank you so much!!! 🙌🙌
Great story and maybe one day I will be able to take big Baby to Vegas
Thank you! If youre determined you can do it!
Can’t wait! Thanks again for shipping them rear brackets for the LS430 calipers!
You're welcome! 😁
Great tales mate. Well done on the trip.
thank you so much!
This was an amazing edit and felt like a vinwiki story!!
Hell yeah thanks brooo
Freddy is my hero. Hopefully see you at SIV next year 🤘🏼
Haha thank youuuu 😄
"West of the Mississippi you can't get 93" 😱😱😱 I didn't know that! I'm lucky enough to have a station nearby with a 110 pump 😁
Don't take that as written in stone, that's just what I experienced. I only saw up to 91, but even that was rare, I often only saw 85-89 octane
Awesome to see this! I have been driving to SIV from south Texas consistently since 2009 until 2021 and was always more inpressed with those, like me, that drive their cars out instead of trailering them. After the event I always detoured on the way back, stacking up the miles on my MK3. One year I decided to make it all the way to the west coast after the event so I detoured to the Santa Monica pier and pushed my luck detouring still through Utah, Colorado, Arizona, New Mexico, etc making stops along the way before finally making it back home. I put a little over 4k miles on that one trip, and just like you, people would ask questions when they saw the out of state plates and question my sanity at fuel stations. I ended up not having a single issue that trip which was great. Oh and my mk3 is still rocking the 7mgte lol
Thats amazing!! I thought about taking the car to the santa monica pier but ended up not doing it. How come you stopped doing the journey?
@@PoorManMods Been wanting a change of direction as I've been driving that way for so many years. Have actually been wanting to check out the Supras take on Myrtle Beach event in North Carolina and start visiting areas in the east coast for a change
@@supersportsupra1391 I had no idea there was event in Myrtle, I'd love to go to that
@PoorManMods Hasn't been going on for long, I think this is only their 3rd or 4th year
Im dieing to to do this in my 2jznat 240sx. Trying to get all kinks out again before the drive. Good to see this
heck yeah you got this!
Did you use the vvti engine or non?
@@DIYAUTOCAR nonvvti
This definitely makes me now want to do a smaller road trip with my s13 or r32 this coming summer. Now that they're down for winter I'll start going through them like you did. Im thinking the tail of the dragon from Wisconsin. Not nearly as far as you went but it's something.
You should definitely be proud of the car youve put together. Most cant say that their project car has done any kind of road trip.
Thank you so much! I hope you get to do a road trip with your projects too! And yes I am very proud thank you 😁
Awesome!!!!!
Thank you!!
Looking forward to it!
hope you liked it!
I've had that problem with that on my cube shifter. Maybe I need to email them when I get to working on the car again 😂
Yes definitely get their updated shifter
Just finished the video - Well done and congrats! Curious, were there much or many MK3s on the track day?
thanks so much!! there was i think less than 5 MK3s that went onto the track
That looked like an epic trip for you all,Freddy! You did a great build on that car and it shows from this trip. Thanks for sharing and congrats again on the trophies!
Thank you so much! It was an epic 10 days for sure! thanks for your support! :D
Damn you were in Lexington? You were an hour away from where I live lol Would have been awesome to have met you along the way. Oh, can't remember if I told you since you found that K series in your new space, but a little after that, I acquired my own K series coincidentally by getting a used Honda Element out of necessity. Needed something to drive my mom and her wheelchair to physical therapy sessions. I already have ideas of what I want to do to it, and like most car enthusiasts, my ideas are more unrealistic and expensive than I can ever afford. One being I want to have high quality carbon fiber work done to recreate all the black plastic panels on the outside, bumpers and all, in carbon. Kinda want to make a realistic what-if Element Type R. But I easily see it becoming a $50k+ endeavor lol
Also, congratulations on the trip! Can't believe that bastard survived the trip so well! And yes, I feel entitled to call it that. Been her since the early days when the 86 had just come back from paint, engineless. So that Supra is iconic. It's a bastard but it's OUR bastard. Channel mascot. The curse that keeps on cursing. 🤣 But for real, huge accomplishment that the only real mishap was just a early design shifter part malfunction.
Some kind of extreme element like that would be rad! I really want to put our K into an RX8, but Brad doesnt like RX8s :(
Haha being an OG follow you are certainly entitled to call it a cursed, problematic bastard 😂😂😂
The car has certainly evolved into a but of an Icon for the MK3 community and the PMM community of course, its absolutely what people "know me" for. I am still amazed the shifter was the only issue, which also bumms be a little bit because i should have taken the risk with the track day!!
Thanks so much for your long time support ❤
Yeah you were blessed you didn't have a catastrophic failure with that pin. And no thanks for me supporting you needed. It's very easy to support quality content and down to earth great people like you and your friends. Been lots of fun times watching you.
As far as the RX8, I kinda agree on hating it?, but only because I loved RX-7s and the 8 felt like a massive letdown. But from a logical pov, idk if the RX-8 would be ideal for a K series. Idk if you followed Donut recently but they K swapped an EG recently and when they added itb's, they immediately ran out of room for the hood to close. K motors are kinda tall. The RX8 has a more narrow sloped hood iirc, and wouldn't it have issues fitting too? Especially since it was designed around a 13B rotary. I'm kinda stumped on what to put it in myself tbh.
@@tinystar3010 So freaking blessed and so lucky! It was a 1/8th an inch from catastrophe lolll. And thank you so much for kind words and support seriously!! We all thank you!
I lovet the way the RX8 looks, i know the factory drivetrain is garbage though. They make k swap kits for the RX8, and SIKKYs formula drift car back in the day was an LS swapped RX8, so there had to be room for that atleast haha. Or maybe an MR222222
You almost sold me on the RX8 when you said the LS fits because I'm sick of LS'ing the world lol But MR2... that'd be awesome like a mini NSX almost. How about the MR-S? Ik it's not well loved, but there's been some awesome JDM body kits for it over the years, and it'd be a unique build you don't find anymore too
@@tinystar3010 Yeah i wouldnt be against doing an MRS either!
Great story….
thank you!
it took longer to build the bridge that bypasses the dam then it did to build the dam
mk3 supras get so much attention out on the roads, i went on a road trip with 2 nice corvettes, and a nice mustang, and my ratty supra got more attention then all 3 of them combined
The supras getting attention and crazy looks because theyre so uncommon, people dont know what they are or theyre just not used to them :D
@@PoorManMods that and then anyone who does know what it is, is excited to actually see one being driven
@@Ironsights85 yessss exactly
Do a kick flip!
Fun fact I cannot do a single kickflip. I can only do a double or a triple
@@PoorManMods I'll need video evidence of this.
@@DIYAUTOCAR are you following me on Instagram? I'll try to get a video one of these days and show you
@@PoorManModsI'm a weirdo and don't have Instagram.
Time for the 1uz swap mk3
No wayyy
@@PoorManMods can we get another 1uz swap 🤔
@@ShitBoxBoy haha why do you need another? 😂 the swap i already did was extremely detailed. I will be doing a 1.5J build in the supra though
@@PoorManMods just for fun and a challenge love the is400 tho 😎
@@ShitBoxBoy thank you! I dont see another 1uz swap in the near future unfortunately though. I will be doing the 1.5J in the supra. We also inherited a K24 engine that we have been debating on what to do with.
