tooquicktostop Posted January 8, 2008 Share Posted January 8, 2008 Very sad to see this leave the country if it goes abroad, has to be one of the best and most admired Supras in the UK, I know you have had a love hate relationship with the car but it seems like you have it running perfect now, sad time to sell, good time to buy You will never not be noticed if you own this car Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
juanchan Posted January 8, 2008 Share Posted January 8, 2008 It won't be leaving the country. Afterall, I'm winning the lottery on Saturday Sorry to hear you're having to sell up Matt Good luck with the AFR project car though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Wilson Posted January 8, 2008 Share Posted January 8, 2008 is the oil pump stock as i know with singles the oil pump sometimes needs moding as the front crank oil seal will go otherwise, i had this problem with my old single. This is total, utter, absolute rubbish. the life and times of the oil pump seal are totally unrelated to the turbo on the engine. I am adamant about this, totally adamant Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jurgen-Jm-Imports Posted January 8, 2008 Share Posted January 8, 2008 this car will sell easy he could sell it for 20k tommorrow if he wanted to.. its not just your normal single supra its got pedigree and history and that comes at a premium... AND WHY beacuse its not bobby or jimmys single supra build on xs power stuff and imported as a grade 3 or R originally to save money and looks like any other supra.. quality and rare cars sell.. and this is excatly that.. cars built by jimmys super powers supras dont sell as well as one build by endless or trial (its a true fact). ok jimmys super power supras might be built safer with 2007 parts and technology and better fueling but it still makes no difference..they will never sell for as much as a pedigree name Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Harwood Posted January 8, 2008 Share Posted January 8, 2008 is the oil pump stock as i know with singles the oil pump sometimes needs moding as the front crank oil seal will go otherwise, i had this problem with my old single. My car has a fully built engine and been running on a single for some time now with a stock Toyota oil pump. No oil seal problems here. I know Matts engine was built be a very competent builder, so I can't see this being an issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gaz1 Posted January 9, 2008 Share Posted January 9, 2008 the only problems i have seen with the oil seals were turbofits installs, as they would overtigten them:( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ark Posted January 9, 2008 Share Posted January 9, 2008 I wonder what the yanks would make of it? Probably be confused by it, the steering wheel being in the wrong place and all... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
juanchan Posted January 9, 2008 Share Posted January 9, 2008 Probably be confused by it, the steering wheel being in the wrong place and all... And half of them won't be able to drive it, what with it being a "stick shift" and all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sean1933 Posted January 9, 2008 Share Posted January 9, 2008 Nooooooooooo....you cant sell it before i have had a change to see it! I was hoping to see it at Ace Cafe but i cant get there now as my supra wont be finished Putting a price on this is going to be hard, to be honest i think it will certainly go to Denmark or the likes. I wouldnt expect £26-28K, especially as your not in a rush, are you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
