Pig Posted December 10, 2008 Share Posted December 10, 2008 Well......what can I say? I have decided to put her up for sale. She only got used properly 6 times last year. (apart from outings for new mods and mapping) I believe the car can be used by someone who will appreciate her for what she is and get the buzz I used to get just from starting her up, let alone racing her. The car is a UK spec Manual 6 speed, Dyno'd at 575bhp @ 1.35 bar, I have recently raised the boost to 1.6 bar but it will not hold more than 1.35 (I have a new waste gate spring in my kitchen to fix that) The car has a fresh full respray (all glass out and panel's off) + custom computer cut stone chip shield on the front and lower rear quarters (worth £500) As you can see by the pictures the car has never been driven hard or used for what it’s been designed for The car has run an 11.8 quarter mile @ 126.88 at Santapod and a 172.76 in 26.89 from a standing start to 1 mile. (faster than a gallardo) I would like to think that is one of the top cars in the club. I am not aware of any other cars pushing this sort of power out of a T61 @ 1.35bar. The only bad point:- I personally feel the suspension needs doing. I’m sick of stock suspension. More info to come, but I will have to go and look at the car to get mileage (approx 110-120 I think) and to answer any other questions.

Get the car to CW for new suspension, stop over up this way while he does it and come get lashed with me, I'll slap the selling bug right out of you! I do think you will regret selling mate.

Pig Posted December 11, 2008 Author Share Posted December 11, 2008 My mind isn't 100% made up. I still have some thinking to do. If it doesn't sell then it's going off the road for a while whilst I try something else. Not sure what though. Will be sad I'm sure but I have lost the enthusiasm.

You won't be able to go - I thought the same as you and within 2 weeks I was back!! When I had the Beemer sat next to the Supra in the drive all I wanted to drive was the Supra!! The Beemer was just a car but the Supra, well, its a state of mind! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
