The Fast and the Furious movie was a big inspiration to Chris Nguyen. He's owned the 1996 Toyota Supra JZA80 since 2004, and caught the modify-bug early on. "Over the years I've upgraded many parts," mentions Nguyen, "including engine, transmissions, brakes, differential, wheels, interior and body styling." When he was younger he would install everything himself with some friends, but now as he gets older he refuse to pull a transmission laying on the floor. A lot of the inspiration for his build comes from Supras all over the world. "I see what I like from different cars/builds, piece it together and make it my own build."
