Little T6 MKIII
Todays feature is a 1989 Toyota Supra owned by Tyler Pattonn (@littlet6) It’s quite a build and I’ll be doing my best to tell it’s story and share parts. But in summary, for those that want to keep scrolling, let’s just say it’s BUILT.
Building a Supra has been Tyler’s dream since he was 17. The car took a lot of hours of building and a lot of saving and stacking parts. It was built top to bottom as a Father and Sons project from start to finish (By L and T Creations). But there was a lot of side help so he’d like to give a huge thanks to everyone who had a hand in helping to complete it.
The car started life as a White Package which I personally believe is one of the top most beautiful Mk3s made from the factory next to the 92 Teal. It now has an even more beautiful pearl white paint job (Neil White). Under the white paint, the widebody quarter panels are made from a custom carbon fiber mold. Giving the car a sleek yet more aggressive body line. Even the engine bay has been meticulously filled, shaved, and smoothed. The intercooler piping holes are also flush fitted against the pipes to keep up the clean look.
Besides a long list of body work the electronics, engine, and interior have also seen some hard work and upgrades. Among the basic mods of a battery and fuse box relocation you’ll also notice almost every light has been switched to LEDs. The interior houses a custom 6 point roll cage, “Custom” Recaro racing seats converted to power for comfort, and basically all the gauges a race car would need...etc. The fully built and blueprinted 7MGTE runs strong thanks to Eagle H beam rods, BC 272 Cams, BC 1MM oversized Ferra titanium valves, BC Springs, and a Borg Warner S366...etc.
For a detailed parts list I’ll be posting below for everything that I was able to get about the car. It will be sectioned out as Body, Interior, Engine, Trans, and Wheels. But in summary I’d say this is a pretty badass 7M build. So give his page a follow!
