Christopher Calimlim's attraction to the Toyota Supra runs deep, and his final product shows just how passionate and serious he is about the platform. He writes, "growing up I was surrounded by Toyota Supras. My three uncles that owned Supras, including two MKII Celica/Supras and one MKIII Supra. Needless to say, I fell even more in love with the 4th generation MKIV Supra after watching the first Fast and the Furious movie. With its iconic body lines and legendary 2JZ-GTE motor, the choice was easy." Apparently it runs in the family.
