Not sure I'd give mine up for a kidney...

What do you mean "building" ... are you just talking about chroming a few parts? Lowered, you won't even see the suspension in a "show".

im in the process of doing the same thing. i picked up a complete 93.5 mkiv chassis (all body parts, all interior, wheels, basically everything but the motor and tranny) with 134k miles on it for 4 grand. im in arizona and there is a shop here that told me they can get me a 2jzgte motor and r154 tranny with ecu and wiring harness for 3100 and put it in for another 1000. then you have the exhaust, intercooler, driveshaft and other misc parts your looking at another 2000-2500 ish. so a complete tt supra but on an N/A chassis so N/A breaks and such for a total 7k. not bad if you ask me

Okay...step 1 - take the shell to full Mkiv TT, bone stock.
Step 2: Chrome the necessary parts and show it.

What am I missing?

Hmmm okay. Here's the updated project plan:
1) Build it up to 100% Mkiv TT specs (6spd), except the turbos, fuel injectors, rims, and exhaust system.
2) Install a fuel system kit, a single turbo kit, and an aftermarket exhaust system.
3) Install wider-than-oem rims (eg. 11.5" wide rear rims, and 10" wide front rims)...along with appropriate rubber for your application.
3) Woop up on lambos & vipers.

The single turbo kit is about $5K and a good, complete fuel system kit is about $2K. As far as the rest of it, I honestly don't know - I bought my Mkiv TT already all together, in one piece.
