  1. Your car looks sweet now mate Pretty much the look I'm going for in fact. You may have just convinced me to do my wheels in a satin black finish...
  2. The Touareg V10 is a fantastic car. One of the only oil-burners I would consider buying.

    Hello

    What a lovely car. Welcome to the club
  4. Spring would be the best time to sell if you're considering it. It would certainly save you some £££ if you buy one already modified. Speak to Jurgen, he imports some of the better modded Supras.
  5. Pay your membership A search on this very site will answer all of your questions.
  6. You lose reliability with hybrids though. I've been looking at big twin turbos for a while now, as an upgrade to my single. They seem to offer a very good setup in terms of torque curve/power delivery. I think I'd want a built engine and maybe some extra CCs before taking the plunge though to make sure I get the best out of it. As already stated, big twins will be BIG money. A single will hit you for £10k, so imagine how much big twins could cost...
  7. My RPS carbon street clutch is brilliant, copes with the torque from my single, anyway.
  8. Manual really is a joy on the Supra. Bet you're chuffed. Get out and enjoy it

    Hi :)

    Welcome One more vote for Michael's car, it's a stunning machine and in the best colour too.

Works well on the road for me.
  11. This car is a joke. £320k... for the cheap one They're going to supercharge the LS9 for 1001bhp apparently, and I hear they have some suspension gurus from F1 involved in the development. The design team has 5 people in it... Arash Farboud, the owner of Arash, only began building cars when Porsche refused to sell him a GT1 road car (one of only 5 made, including Porsche's own museum car). This is as madcap as it gets. Will it perform? Who knows!
  12. It's not a Skyline. I personally wouldn't consider it. My £50k would buy something with a lot more soul.
  13. I'll see if I can pop along. I do live about 15 seconds from Sainsbury's after all
  14. Rear wheel drive offers so much more as a driving experience. Front wheels should be for steering There's nothing more frustrating that being passed while understeering into a corner, knowing you can do nothing about it.
  15. I thing they are front wheel drive, which puts me off straight away.
  16. If you fold your seats down your car will be faster. Fact.
