  1. i know its all ware and tear which is why i dont mind paying out so much, haha yea its a 93 with 74 thousand miles so the shocks and crank pulley have done quite well! the alarm is aftermarket so we can tblame the supra for that!
  2. i know how you feel mate i got my uk spec tt 5 months ago, the crank pulley came off all the discs and pads need doing the rear shocks have just gone the alarms stopped working altogether and my brand new rear tyres are wearing on the inside lol. ive spent a few k so far but im not fed up yet, as long as shes working nicely for summer i think its all worth it!
  3. i use to have an 03 type r cat back and induction kit, i sold it to my mate and my STOCK twin turbo supra DESTROYS it
  4. it makes me happy they think its worth 5500 with 179 thousand miles
  5. ive got a uk spec supra and my boss has a mini cooper s, i dont think hes too botherd i have a better car although he throws in the occasional dig at the price of servicing, tyres, fuel etc
  6. i decided on a tt supra because to go from 325 bhp to 400 is very cheap. to get 400bhp from any of the other cars i was looking at would of cost a fortune! ive used it every day for around 4 months and its been perfect! everybody looks at it even though its stock! it also has a pretty quick 0 to 60 time for a stock car im guessing the massive back wheels help that! not to mention its an iconic car! and getting rarer by the year! i feel special when im in it i dont think any other car makes u smile like the supra does
  7. thats very nice! yea it is rather different lol! i like it though. why dont you want a turbo? just drive it slowly if you have points already! your just as likely to brake the speed limit in the n/a supra lol!!
  8. i know what you mean, i didnt feel very special in the type r lol. i see alot of vxrs about i can see why youd rather have a supra! People always look at the supra even though its completely standard!
  9. i use to have an 03 plate civic type R with 40 thousand miles on the clock and i was a bit worried about switching to an older car! but the supra with 70 thousand miles on the clock is alot smoother! and alot more fun! good luck finding a nice supra

    how often

    every day i really HATE myself for running up the mileage! gets me out of bed for work in the morning though knowing i get to drive the supra to work
  11. lovely car mate! dashboard looks really nice that engine bays nice and clean! puts mine to shame! keep us updated with the mods i also have a standard twin turbo which im going to start modding after christmas so il be interested to see what you do
  12. ahh cheers mate will have to get a price off them
  13. yea thats what i was thinking! just want a little something to cover it
  14. haha yea if i could find an ipod 1 id probs go for it
  15. i dont think il be taking out the dashboard lol but thanks
  16. the previous owner had an old school mobile phone holder screwed to the dashboard! at 1st it didnt bother me but everytime some1 new spends a bit of time in my car they always comment and its getting annoying lol does anybody have any ideas as to what i could put there that would cover it up? il be getting an ebc in the next 6 months but i dont want it there because its low and will get knee'd by passengers!
  17. thanks mate! thats nice to know
  18. thats cool ive talked myself out of selling it . id be richer without it but life would be alot more boring
  19. lol the previous owner hadnt even taken traction control off. and had the same tyres on it for like 4 years. i have done it a little bit but not half as bad as them irish men! i get overcome by this massive respect for the car im sure il loosen up some day lol
  20. i can honestly say my car has never done that since new lol, i cant beleive that video i bet that cars falling apart for that price

    Plumbing

    so many piss takers on here lol, i was thinking more along the lines of balancing your heating if you have some rads that arent getting hot or fixing a leaky tap! id rather not do any plumbing in any1s house but i would really like to see what my cars going to be like speed wise in 6 months time lol! where abouts do you live dnk?

    Plumbing

    haha no im a real plumber not a "porno plumber". and guys i did say id come and have a look i didnt say id start draining down your heating and start changing valves hahaha. i just want to know what to expect when i start getting close to 400bhp
  23. i have been using the wet weather to get use to how the car acts once it starts sliding so ive had several "brown moments" this week haha just when i think i can guess what its going to do i get on a different road surface and it reacts completely differently!
  24. thanks for the feedback guys, im just going to get the wheels and then think again it is very hard to imagine my supra without a spoiler.... but some of yours look really nice without it! we will see!
