Guest Terry S Posted July 19, 2002 Share Posted July 19, 2002 It's all about horses;) The car now still pulls hard at 170. Stock after 160 it was a struggle. Going home know. Good luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tDR Posted July 19, 2002 Share Posted July 19, 2002 Originally posted by Terry Saunders About 280 bhp;) If you buy a car wiyh a quoted figure, ask for a printout otherwise be sceptical. Every Cossie with an Air Filter & Exhaust has 370 bhp:D It is fairly easy to get upto 450 bhp from a TT. Much more if you have the money:rolleyes: Terry, aren't you the bloke that's running a big single? How much BHP do you REALLY reckon you now have and approximately how much do you think it's cost you? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Terry S Posted July 19, 2002 Share Posted July 19, 2002 Now who told you that?? I may have a bit more than 280 bhp now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

George L Posted July 19, 2002 Author Share Posted July 19, 2002 Oi I am pissed, stop confusing me! Promise not to laugh, but my current car is a Saxo VTS with Group A suspension, Hi Spec 4 pots, Kent cams, Gas flowed head and nitrous! Thanks for the help George Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnK Posted July 21, 2002 Share Posted July 21, 2002 Get a standard one and learn to drive it first!!! I came from a 260bhp (proven ) 4wd to a stander 326bhp UK soop, and believe me there is no comparison. Forget the stock traction control it wont help you, 326bhp through the rear wheels means unless you relly learn how it handles you will be looking at where you just come from before you know it. The handeling is great but ive found you cant just chuck it around like you would say a saxo. Get the best standard car you can afford and live with it a while before you mod it.

fastisnice Posted July 21, 2002 Share Posted July 21, 2002 Hi George, The only thing everybody is forgetting here which is a must for a supra is a radar detector with such power you 'll never manage to stay with the "speed limits".From my personal experience police will always be happy to take your license away. GET A RADAR DETECTOR before you get the Supra....... Caught speeding Now i know i should have got a radar detector...............and a jammer:D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
