  1. I know its not a real RS500 mate, i cant afford one of them, its still a proper cossie shell though, if i was to get something like that id put a full cage in it and do a small tub on the rear to get some wide wheels on it.
  2. Good thing if i do something like that is i have lots of 2jz parts already, ive got a couple of spare complete engines, gearbox/diffs, i got a fully built short block with cp's and BC rods, still got my old billet 76 turbo, thats a seriously hard hitting and fast spooling 850bhp turbo, i could almost build a supra with my spares:D
  3. Im going to bid on it tomorrow, see what happens, if i get it i will have to sell the V8 supra to fund this. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=160597723129#description
  4. Ive always been a big RS fan, My mate just bought a mk2 RS2000 and its a huge scene still, of late i keep finding myself looking at them, then i spotted this video, there is a black rolling shell for sale on ebay:eyebrows:
  5. I not long fitted new oem arms, they work ok for me at my current ride height.
  6. Stock has enough adjustment as long as you dont go to low, if you lower it loads id imagine the ikea stuff would be good, mine was setup as low as i could go while still keeping as much tyre as i could on the tarmac by wheels in motion, if i want to go lower i would need more adjustment.
  7. His peak power is going to be 6000rpm or higher just like any other supra, lost me a bit with that one, on a turbo like marks it will make plenty of power low down the rev range also, My car runs itro a 1000hp with std head gasket and compression ratio on V power.
  8. Looks like a boat steering wheel to me, had similar on my Donzi.
  9. Very different running that power on a drag car mark, 8 seconds at WOT once a month is very different to the stress it would be put though as a road car.
  10. Please explain then? If MVP mapped it for vpower did you send the car and fuel to them? Or they come to you?
  11. If anyone has removed a pair of stock badges i could do with a pair.
  12. Full carbon including the brackets, try importing a similar one of these and it will cost about 2 grand to your door, simple to fit via the stock wing holes, i fitted it to my car to give you an idea of what it looks like, removed and ready for collection now. What you see is what you get, £sold collected or you can arrange your own courier. Jamie:)
  13. As i said in reply to your PM, doing it from a map you have been sent from the states is a very bad idea, for a start they use different fuel, get it mapped properly.
  14. After seeing how bad the map was on my thor V8 supra id not let them map anything of mine, it was shocking, Ryan is the best out there imo.
  15. Best tip i can give..... pay somebody else to do it;)
  16. Ive had loads of cosworths mate, not had one in about 10 years though, i use to have a black RS500 and also had a Modena green RS2000, i sold that car for £1800 about 17 years ago, id hate to think what its worth now.
  17. Good shout, i remember the first day i got my R5 Turbo, i was in shock at how fast it was, that shock only lasted two days though and the head gasket popped killing the engine:D My perfect garage:- My Supra. Black RS500, completely stock. Modena Green MK1 RS2000. Black TDV8 discovery for the daily hack.
  18. What cars do you think will be future classics that demand a high price? Seen what RS500's and old mk1/mk2 RS2000's go for these days? also E30 M3's have gone up a bit, not as much as the fords though, if you had told me 10-15 years ago the money these would fetch today id have said never. I fancy getting something that will go up in value, i think 996 turbo's are on the floor price wise, cant see them getting any lower myself, i also wonder if a mint/stock R32 GTR would ever be a future classic? Any other ideas?
  19. What else would you have in the garage Rob? one toy is never enough, you need two weekend toys incase one is being worked on and a daily driver for a complete set.
  20. This one;) http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/vbpicgallery.php?do=view&g=2283
