Welcome!

Your 21? Im 21 with a N/A, admiral quoted me £1200.00 and i only took out the insurance 2 weeks ago. I also have 3 years no claims GRRR! Good quote.
-
No i didnt clean it with degreaser, thats the first i herd of that. Ill do that next time. I may be being slow, can you just clarify what you mean by interior paint?
-
I just bought a N/A my first Supra. Am loving it to bits. Supras are ace you gotta get one
-
Ive never fitted mesh before and i did mine last week with ease. Its very straight forward mate
-
your comments will be passed on to him!
-
no primer at all! Wish that would work for me!
-
Cool, ill tell him no more then 3.5k then.
-
Sorry its an auto!
-
I havent seen it either. Ive been told its a Pedator body kit, black in colour. With normal looking (nouthing amazing) alloys 19inch i think. I dont have any pictures to show. Just my friends looking to bid for it at an auction and just wanted a rough estimate what you lot would pay for it?
-
Enquiry for a friend! He is looking at a n/a 3.0 litre Supra with a full Predator bodykit and 19inch alloy wheels. It has over 90,000 miles on the clock, and is in excellent condition. Auto Gearbox 1994 model i think. What is that car worth in your eyes?
-
Welcome to the site. What makes you want a n/a over a tt then?
-
Yeah this way sounds best, financially as well. Right time to start saving to put this into practice. Thanks for your input guys. Btw Miko_supra where are you from in buckinghamshire? Ive got a flat in aylesbury and am up that way 50% of my life!
-
I think i can see where i was going wrong now. I dont think i have applied enough coats. I only did one coat of primer and one coat of paint followed by one coat of laquor. Ill re do it spending a bit more time and a few more coats of each and fingers crossed this time it should work out better. Thanks to everyone for there input
-
Cars in garage atm, once its back ill take some
-
Yep did that! Would it of made a difference that the day i painted it on it was quite windy? Could that of afected the coat?
-
You bought it all threw ebay? Fitted it yourself? How much did that cost you?
-
So you bought the tt engine for 2.5k? Then fitted it yourself correct?
-
Yes i did to the best of my ability. I speant ages sanding etc. It just seemed if i was to catch the dash with a nail or my keys it would scratch immediately and/or chip away Ive obviously done something wrong somewhere im juts trying to establish what
-
Understand. So unless i am willing to pay 3k+ the only other real option is to sell up and buy a tt. That leaves me with plenty of thinking to do...
-
Sounds exspensive. Is there no cheaper ways? Can you buy reconditioned turbo's or is that a big risk?
-
Sorry my error there, i did use plastic primer.
-
I currently have a auto n/a aerotop supra. I would like to fit a turbo to it. I know nouthing about turbo's as i have never had a car with any turbo's before. Is it to go for twin turbo or single turbo? Any turbo's you reccommend? I know you can spend a fortune on turbos but for a failry decent turbo how much would it cost and how much would a garage charge to fit it? I no nouthing at all when it comes to turbo's so any info will help.
-
Brilliant write up. You should be proud of that. Awesome car!
-
I did a wet and dry rub down. Then put silver primer on it. Sanded down wet and dry again any marks thats left followed by a coat of halfords silver dash paint. Finnally followed by Lacquer. I then left it 24 hours before i touched it to allow it all to harden and the paint chipped away and scratched very easy. Just checking i have done all that coorect havent i? I havent missed anything?
