Tom Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 Shame to see you selling mate, but a very nice car so someones going to be lucky I didnt realise you had a built engine, and a proper spec to it too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveR Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 Will be sad I'm sure but I have lost the enthusiasm. Why? Anything in particular? If it 's just the rolly UK spec suspension you can sort that easily enough. Yes it's more money, but like you say the entire rest of the car is spot on and you've surely spent a pretty penny getting that far so a few hundred quid on suspension could be found?

Its not so much the money that is putting me off as i have that set aside ready to go. Its the actually spending it on something im not going to use, Im thinking that i may do a couple of drift days to see if i enjoy it. If i do i may set it up for drift. We shall see, the mrs is REALLY not keen on me selling and she wears the trowsers I just don't seem to care about the car in the same way I used to, hopefully its just a fase.

jevansio Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 Tis the winter, I took mine off the road this year so I couldn't drive it & I feel much better, last year I too got a little down over the winter about the car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pig Posted December 12, 2008 Author Share Posted December 12, 2008 Nice car, if you sell it you will be back, what are you thinking of getting next mate? Not sure TBH. I have the RS4 so cant think of anything to fit the bill. As said earlier, may try my hand at drifting and get a drift car. That dash is sooooo cool Thank you..... see supraloopy, he made it for me.

Gerry Posted December 13, 2008 Share Posted December 13, 2008 The Club won't be the same without you Pig Always admired your do or die attitude (first Dragonball with an unset-up turbo) It's always great to hear you popping & banging at meets... Although you only drive it infrequently, bet you love it when you do... Don't do it mate... PS. I realise that the above reasons are all selfish on my part, but thought a it was worth a try Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tooquicktostop Posted December 13, 2008 Share Posted December 13, 2008 Totally understand your reasons for the sale, I have the exact same feelings with my car, just dont see this current climate is the best time to sell a very expensive old Toyota, maybe better finishing off the suspension and waiting until the spring, gives you some time to think if its the right thing to do Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi Jon Yeah as long as the mininum boost with the new spring is in the same range of boost it has been mapped to now then it will be fine.
