    I wonder where's the "Miss Banzai" in question... does she make an honorary appearance ?

    Full fat 1000bhp must be very exciting! For me that's too much power to unleash on public roads especially on a RWD

    Sorry if this is a report but just came across this in the classifieds.... http://classifieds.pistonheads.com/classifieds/used-cars/toyota/supra/uks-fastest-full-weight-toyota-supra-proven-1000bhp--9-second-car/848333 Looks awesome except for the interior (imo)...

    Need 3 at least imo, one on the rear to record all the poor sods you've smoked

    I could get 2 crates of Budweiser beer and maybe around 5-6 bags of shopping. I'm surprised by how usable the boot is to be honest! I've even transported a home theatre system back before in the box (receiver and 5.1 speakers) and they all fit in the car with some clever use of front and rear seats I know it would be sacrilege to say this but I think the boot of the GTR is more practical compared to the Supra's

    Wow... didn't realise the tank for the 911 turbo is even smaller! But I guess it would be with the engine being in the back Is this the 997 turbos?

    I echo my post on GTROC... congrats and enjoy Looks like black GTRs seem to be favs so far? edit: The subwoofer on yours looks a little different to standard ones. Are those upgraded speakers? Mine looks like this : http://pics.jonathanchye.co.uk/_data/i/upload/2012/03/11/20120311215158-00d48300-th.jpg

    A few photos some of them are US-based Do lucks but I think most of the pics are from Chingy's profile lol : http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/vbpicgallery.php?do=view&g=1908

    I actually have a folder full of pics of this car... amazing car which sets the standard for Supras out there (imo). My 2 cents? If you need a quick cash injection and can get good money for it then I would sell it. Use the extra funds to reinvest in your business and once that grows you will have plenty more cash for other nice cars... who knows you might even buy this car back

    @ OP : That Supra looks mint! I like it! Although I think a nice big brake kit will finish it off. Lovely house too !!!

    Definitely a poor driver You can turn the driver aids off but for an average driver like me R-R-R is plenty of fun

    That'll be like buying a Supra.... but an N/A

    Well you can own a GTR @ 19 Check out a thread on PH... 19 is my mental age I'm more like 31
  17. jonathanc
    19 !
  18. jonathanc
    lol

    I think the filming car is another taxi. He is indeed VERY lucky - if he accelerated a bit more it would've been hit that's hit.

    I also offer my apologies if my post sounded too...accusing? Having a bug at the moment on my day off of all days so not in best of moods That part of Singapore is usually quite busy during the day but either way no excuse for driving that fast in a built up area like that. From the Youtube clip sounds like he was flat out too (no attempts at braking). Shocking video indeed but at least his passenger survived.
  21. jonathanc
    Don't think it was intentional ? This was on PH too and I don't see a ban is needed for posting this, unless you support driving at that speed in a built up area and running red lights? Still the driver paid the ultimate price - with his live but not after taking 2 along... some people have more money then sense.

    Wow...to be fair from the outside the car looks nice. The proportions are right and you can't really see any massive gaps in the shut lines. Once you see the interior though... For £45k I would buy a real AM V8 lol!
  23. jonathanc
    Well thats not really fair as the camera man looks like he is the driver too
  24. jonathanc
    Yeap, set the buttons to RRO, left foot hard on brake and right foot on accelerator. Revs should hang around the 3200 mark (higher for newer or tuned cars) then just let go the brake lol. Doesn't take too long to spool as I've only held 2-3 secs before launching - the computers will sort the rest
  25. jonathanc
    Prime? You mean pushing the 3 buttons to RRO? Well I've heard the new 2012 LC software is very much better compared to mine and if that's correct I would think it's mental! I've only tried launching once and I've never seen the speedo hit 100 that fast ever! Not saying it is impossible for a skilled Sup driver to win but just saying how easy it is in the GTR... JamiePs beast would walk over 99% of any GTRs out there tho launch control or not!
