jamesmark Posted April 19, 2008 Author Share Posted April 19, 2008 Martin, You can get them cheap as chips but my budget was £6k for one of these, plus I wanted an S14a. The modded ones all were £5k+. I got this for £5800, there are a few inperfections as my interpretation of immaculate is different to the sellers, But they are small and only involve the paintwork.

jamesmark Posted April 19, 2008 Author Share Posted April 19, 2008 My word that's a nice one, when did you bang your head and get some taste? Lovely car sir, that colour really comes alive once the sun hits it too. I was considering buying another supra but an N/A but I did not want to end up being like Geneb. I have always liked these and thought why not pursue it, like you said mate a few days ago about a change, the supra is an awsome machine but not sure it worth buying another. A lot of people have told me that the colour looks very nice in the sun, I may look to change it as previously said but will see what it is like in the summer.

Tricky-Ricky Posted April 19, 2008 Share Posted April 19, 2008 Nice choice, i also had one of around 350BHP, what made you go from a Supra to S14?? http://im1.shutterfly.com/procserv/47b7ce36b3127ccebdb0d11e286000000036100BZsWTlozcMS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And as metioned already the power to weight ratio is pleasing. Looking at AP-T site, a fully built engine starts at £4k all in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jamesmark Posted April 20, 2008 Author Share Posted April 20, 2008 Well it is the big day tomorrow. Pick her up tomorrow night.............trying not to get excited. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamesmark Posted April 21, 2008 Author Share Posted April 21, 2008 Well just back from picking her up. First outing I thought I was going to have to call RAC out as the petrol was on red line, as first petrol station was shut and next one was 20 mile away, all good in the end. Really liking it, and bloody hell it is quick lol. It is great to be driving a manual again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedM Posted April 21, 2008 Share Posted April 21, 2008 Supra quick or more nimble? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamesmark Posted April 21, 2008 Author Share Posted April 21, 2008 Supra quick or more nimble? It is nimble, you can feel it is a lighter. I think to be honest I might be able to keep up with a stock/BPU supra, on the road home when opening her up a little on the straights she climbed to a reasonable speed very quickly indeed. When I did open her I kept on wondering where the second turbo was or expecting the 2nd turbo to kick in shortly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
