PRJCT_80 started as more than a car build. The JZA80 Supra became the foundation for a long-term personal archive, combining mechanical transformation, visual identity, and the idea of preserving a machine as part of a larger creative language. What began as a platform with potential slowly evolved into the core object of 9866M.

The direction of the car was never meant to be a simple restoration or a standard power build. The Abflug GT05 exterior set the tone for the entire project: rare, aggressive, and unmistakably period-correct, but still personal. Every major decision after that had to match the presence of the body — the single-turbo 2JZ-GTE conversion, manual swap, cockpit equipment, carbon details, wheel fitment, and motorsport-inspired hardware all became part of the same visual and mechanical language.

The build has moved through different stages: collecting rare parts, changing the drivetrain direction, refining the aero package, rebuilding systems, solving fitment issues, and accepting that the final version of the car will always continue to evolve. PRJCT_80 is not only about completing a Supra. It is about documenting the process, the setbacks, the waiting, the parts, the decisions, and the identity formed around the car.

Inside 9866M, PRJCT_80 represents the most intense side of the garage. It is low, loud, fragile, emotional, and highly intentional. It carries the visual weight of Japanese tuning culture, personal memory, and the pursuit of building something that feels impossible to replace.
