DanBEXsupra Posted January 24, 2009 Share Posted January 24, 2009 hi guys, I bought my Import 5 Speed NA supra about 8 months ago, havnt gotten around to putting it on here though ive been a member for a while. I plan to rebuild the engine on this when i can afford it perhaps chrome it and fit it with a single turbo, upgrade to 6 speed aswell (more than likely!) and all the things ill need to make it run effeciantly (intercooler, better brakes etc) Since i bought it i have replaced the jap plastic headlights, and i have bought a new leather interior with the supra logo in the headrests that i am yet to fit. hopefully sometime in febuary i will find the time! (took some photo's at night as i hear you get a lot of people blagging they have supra's when they dont! lol) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mark newman Posted January 24, 2009 Share Posted January 24, 2009 hi nice car. where did you get your new seats from as i would love to have some fitted to mine. Mark Newman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanBEXsupra Posted January 25, 2009 Author Share Posted January 25, 2009 yeah it wasnt too bad when i got it, few problems, hadnt had its cambelt changed since new, got that and its drive belt changed within the first week. (engine rebuild not cheap if a cambelt dies!) took it in for its MOT and it had a twisted brake cable. but not really any major problems. as i mentioned headlights were severely foggy! coming up on 75,000 miles. previous owner had it in a garage for months on end, and only drove it on the weekends. poor thing lol. i intend to restore it to its former glory. im only 21 but ill do it at a pace i can afford, couple of blemishes in the paintwork. but tidy exterior none the less Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanBEXsupra Posted January 25, 2009 Author Share Posted January 25, 2009 hi nice car. where did you get your new seats from as i would love to have some fitted to mine. Mark Newman Straight off ebay. you get a colour choice. And as an optional choice you can have the supra logo embroided in the headrests. if you hang on till i have them fitted ill put some pictures up for you. but postage does take a while it was frustrating looking out of the window for 2 months! whole lot back seats, front seats, headrests, was 440 pounds including postage, i think they are good quality but as i say wait a couple of days ill get them fitted in! just type in toyota supra interior and it should show up pretty easy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
