Moar JDM

Been bringing in a few more cars here and there for friends, my dad decided he needed in on the JDM action. He wanted something different, something you don't see (Skyline is immediately out), had to be automatic, but still interesting, quick, etc.
Got him this:

Having a hell of a time making these pics work

1989 Toyota Soarer 2.0GT Twin Turbo. Has the 1G-GTE twin turbo 2.0L straight 6 in it. Underneath the car is essentially a long wheelbase Mk3 Supra, so brakes, suspension, transmission, HVAC, etc is all Supra stuff. The 1G-GTE was as far as I know Japan only since its a 19XXcc less than 2.0l tax bracket engine. But the trans is the same A340 you'd see in a USA car. 210HP is the stock rating, found an ARC intercooler for it, HKS intake, bolt in test pipe, and I'm currently looking for a used Mk3 supra cat-back to lengthen to fit. Lowered it 1.5" and put on some dad-friendly fitment SSR wheels. Plan is to rock it out for a while and enjoy it. A couple more psi of boost and an exhaust will finish it off.
It's different, thought you guys might appreciate.
