To say we wouldn't be where we are today without certain cars would be a lie, the Toyota Supra being no exception. Back in 2009 we sold our pride and joy to start StreetFX and while it was painful for us at the time, it had to be done. As sad as it was to see the old "WTF" drive off nearly 10 years ago, we had a feeling one day we'd be getting back behind the wheel of another 2J powered Japanese icon.
The original "WTF" Supra.

With help from Global Motor Traders, we were lucky enough to be able to find that 2J. To be more specific, we bought a 1998 Model 6 Speed Turbo Supra RZ.
We managed to get it up to our garage so we could check it out and inspect what we had bought! As with any car you buy interstate and sight unseen she was a little bit rough around the edges. A few things broken, knocks here and there, but it was a Supra, and it was what we were looking for.

We have a lot of special things in the works for this car. Many logical mods and repairs for a car of its age, and a few we've never tried before! We're excited to get to work on this car and make it truly live up to the standard of the other "WTF" cars in our line up.
We will be documenting the entire build and other awesome car related content on our YouTube channel "Street FX Motorsport TV " head over there and check out the first episode for a detailed look at the "WTF-2J" Supra!
