  1. 'is NOW being' Fast and Furious came out early 2001! and what was the main car in that film??? Think you will find its a Supra. As for selling a car because its on max power, bit of a stupid comment. Tell me a car that hasnt been in max power!? Ive seen 'maxxed' (think thats the term) ferraris and porsches... better not get 1 of them now then... bloody cav cars???
  2. So basically, just wait till its here and take it from there! Sounds good to me. Cheers Darren.
  3. I thought it was a relaxed chat forum where we are able to discuss Supra's and other related matters, i was unaware that abbreviated text was frowned upon within this community and i apologise for my previous thread. I would hate to have to send you a text message m8 You must also hate these ridiculous GIF images, very juvenile indeed! Maybe they should be abolished? Regarding the main topic of this thread. I have imported the vehicle with the appreciated aid of Jurgen and he has offered to organise the MOT, but unfortunately this will result in the vehicle being transported to Newcastle which is approximately a 5 hour drive, this seems impractical as the arrival dock is only a 45 minute away from my current location. I will be appreciative if anyone else has any suggestions. Many thanks, Jonny
  4. Not the pet kind... my cars on it way from japan and i doubt its gona have any cats on it and wont pass mot... dont really want to be payin for bit i dont want on the car! whats the best way to go about it? find sum1 thats willin to do a dodgey mot or is there any1 in the cambs area that can lend me 1??? or summit???

  6. How long did it take u go get it registered?
  7. WHAAAYYYYY! lol im just a bit scared that the tyres are gona need replacing! any1 know of any decent and well priced 19'' tyres
  8. Jugens got mine on the way cant wait! So everything that was ment to be on it .. is on it? Few people have scared me sayin that 'id be lucky' to still have the same wheels on the car once it gets here So the cars running smoothly huh??? No probs??? I CANT WAITTT
  9. Got a race waiting for me 1ce i get my car ... Almost brand new evo 8 tuned to about 380bhp... ohhh shit
  10. OHHHH yeah ok ... i thought that then thought mine has got an intercooler, thinkin of some great big HKS thing! ... they all have a little 1 to the left side of the engine though rite? Yeah il have that looked at then if thats worth doing! Im hopin to do a few engine mods 1ce ive got it and i think a decent intercooler is pretty much on top of the list.
  11. OK so i might sound pretty stupid now... but... whats an IC? Thanks for the help so far.
  12. Should be in good running order... only has 20'000 miles on the clock! i think id be happy with around 360 for the time being. so a boost of about 1bar sounds good to me ... dont wanna kill them turbos too quickly!

    CRD supra

    Stunning colour and the interior looks better then my dads XKR ... but over £17k???? ummmm look at a Maserati 3200.... 3200cc twin turbo... 370bhp standard! a 2000 with low miles for around £20k .. id know what id rather have and i LOVE supras!
  15. Got these comin on my car... apparently they are PIAA Super Rosser... cant seem to find them available in the UK... any1 seen them before/know how much they are? Insurance are going to want to know how much they are worth, said about £1500 so far!? That sound right for 19''???
  16. 'If you want to keep up on the straights you'll need BPU minimum: Full decat, restrictor ring, NGK or IK22 plugs and FCD. You could do that for about £400 but you REALLY should get a boost gauge and walbro pump to be on the safe side. If you do the work yourself the lots will cost around the £800 mark.' Im on the case ... and that will takeit to the 360bhp mark???
  17. God knows what im running ... cars just left Japan! il tell u in july!
  18. ISSSS ITTT good news ... didnt think ud get much power just from doing that!? Sounds good tho! Yeah its a j-Spec. Which plugs are recommended!
  19. So you just get it boosting at about 1 bar... basically?
  20. Well basically .. how? situation is that my mate has a brand new Evo 8 at 320BHP so i was happy with my supe running the same power... but hes now gettin an ECU update to take it to 380BHP... barstard! Ive heard bit from other threads etc but just want to know if any knows the cheapest and easiest way of gettin that sort of power from the supra and how much its gona cost... its already got a full exhorst system and decatted. Would it not just be easy to get it chipped too??? Thanks for the help!
  21. 1. Pick supra up from docks. 2. Convert to UK spec. 3. Service. 4. Register car/get plates. 5. Get insurance. 6. Fill with petrol and abuse.
  22. Doesnt even sound like hes got 1! hahaha ... well i thought i was funny!
  23. Rangh alot of companies cant really remember which said what ... but i sware they just said ... 'no we cant quote you' better try again! (duno what woot means)
  24. Thats the quote i just got ... 22 4yrs N/C 19'' Wheels worth £2000 and a full kit... not too bad really!
