supra steveo Posted March 29, 2008 Share Posted March 29, 2008 good choice that mate, Paul does look after his cars. Put some facelift fronts on then it will be perfect agreed, but it is a really nice supra that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pabs Posted March 29, 2008 Author Share Posted March 29, 2008 When you say facelift fronts, what are you referring to? Headlights/indicators etc? Still trying to understand the exact spec of the car! Some of you may remember my recent thread "Wanted: Supra TT Aero" or something - well I had quite a few members who PM'd me saying they'd consider selling their cars - well this was one of them. I don't think Paul advertised it as such, so I think I was lucky to get first dibbs on it Thanks for all your comments folks - I'm off to work now, but when I return no doubt I'll be cleaning the car and doing a few bits - stay tuned for more quality pics and a spec list!!!!!

Trig Posted March 29, 2008 Share Posted March 29, 2008 When you say facelift fronts, what are you referring to? Headlights/indicators etc? Still trying to understand the exact spec of the car! Facelift headlights, you already have the indicators Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pabs Posted March 29, 2008 Author Share Posted March 29, 2008 Facelift headlights, you already have the indicators Ah that's what I thought.... the headlights are the glass UK ones - can you get facelift UK lights that are glass then?

Pabs Posted March 29, 2008 Author Share Posted March 29, 2008 I've been outside for about 3 hours so far - I washed it and started to dry it, and then the heavens opened again, luckily I got it back in the garage before my hard work was ruined! I also found out that my supra not only fits in the garage, but I can spend time working on it in there as there is enough room for me to move around!! yay! All stickers are now off the car, glass is polished and I'm ready for my first mod - the mkivsupra.net club stickers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pabs Posted March 29, 2008 Author Share Posted March 29, 2008 mate - have you not looked out of the window??? It's p*ssin down - hardly weather to take more pics I'm afraid Besides - I want to make sure the car looks fantastic before I take more pics!

SupraStar 3000 Posted March 29, 2008 Share Posted March 29, 2008 LOL, I know mate. Looks like I'm not flying the Heli this weekend. BTW: I bet you havnt given that a second look with this new toy on the scene Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragonball Posted March 29, 2008 Share Posted March 29, 2008 The car looked so good being driven away! I think Paul and I worked out that I had done less than 2300 miles in the last year - such a waste of a great car - and I am just glad that it has gone to an enthusiastic member! Hope it gives you loads of enjoyment! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pabs Posted March 29, 2008 Author Share Posted March 29, 2008 Thanks Paul - I've not driven it other than the drive home, weather is just far too sh*t to get out there! Gutted about it, I tell ya! I'm going to ping you an email mate with a few questions if that's ok As for my heli - well, it's boxed up again as it was sitting on the sideboard looking pretty, but very likely to get damaged. I've not been able to fly for somewhere near 4 weeks now due to weather being naff. Just not my luck at the moment!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackie Posted March 29, 2008 Share Posted March 29, 2008 Hey all, It's been somewhere close to 2years of me being on these forums, but I've finally purchased my first Supra! I pick it up on Friday this week - needless to say I'm very excited! Obviously as I don't have the car yet, the pics I have are not 100% current, but the car still looks the same! Brief spec is Supra TT Aero (obviously auto) - BPU'd. Hope you all like as much as I do - once I've picked it up I will no doubt post up some new pics! PS - some of you should recognise the car as it belongs to a club member! Hope you don't mind me using your images mate! http://82.photobucket.com/albums/j241/godatguitar/Supra/dscf00133rg.jpg http://82.photobucket.com/albums/j241/godatguitar/Supra/dscf00174ol.jpg Thats absolutly stunning, Its so shiney it looks wet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pabs Posted March 29, 2008 Author Share Posted March 29, 2008 Unfortunately the pics you see at the moment are quite old I think (2006) but I think the car still looks as good I promise I'll update this thread with new pics as soon as the weather gets better! In the meantime I'm going to start knocking up the spec list and I'll add it to the first post and my garage too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pabs Posted March 29, 2008 Author Share Posted March 29, 2008 hehe yeh - I'm already planning a "to-do" list of things I'd like to get done at some point All tasteful stuff mind... I did, however, stop and stare at the car when I saw it side-on - the spoilerless image is really quite nice - and I'm coming round to the idea. But I think a nice comprimise is a small lip spoiler like the abflug or TS or similar.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I think a nice comprimise is a small lip spoiler like the abflug or TS or similar.... I personally would leave it spoiler less,it looks really clean and sleek. Thats the first thing i noticed and it looks great, But dont listen to me, I have a Veilside kitted Supra that i think looks good;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pabs Posted March 30, 2008 Author Share Posted March 30, 2008 Ladies and Gentlemen, please feel free to take a look at post #1 of this thread, as you will find the spec list (still to be 100% confirmed, but I'm working on it) and a few nice new pics that I've managed to take today now that the weather is good! Car isn't fantastically clean, but I've spent a lot of today vacuuming, waxing, and removing small polish marks that were on the car.

SupraStar 3000 Posted March 30, 2008 Share Posted March 30, 2008 Sorry Paul. I just dont like it Give it to me and buy yourself another. Seriously, I lOVE it. One of the best. Damn I'm sooo jealous> An Areo TT BPU Supra. Can it get any better? Love the seats too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pabs Posted March 30, 2008 Author Share Posted March 30, 2008 yeh, I've fallen in love with it big time now! Still really contemplating the manual gearbox conversion - the auto is great, but I really do miss the gearchanges. This is probably quite a long way away though as I don't have the money. Single tubbie after that, but a small one as I hate lag First things first though - I'm going to get it in for a service/checkover as soon as I get the spark plugs, and then sort out a few things (couple of bulbs in dash lights are gone) and might even get a pro to detail/mop the bodywork. Unfortunately one of the c-west light covers is cracked too, which I'll probably want to sort out, but it means buying a new pair at £100+ And I've got my eye on a trd steering wheel too hehe... damn the bank manager is gonna love me!
