Ewen Posted February 7, 2009 Share Posted February 7, 2009 Hi Asad, nice car. Several on here have asked about twin pipes... could you post some pics up of how yours has been done (taken from underneath possibly) before you change it back to single exit ?

asad Posted February 9, 2009 Author Share Posted February 9, 2009 i feel shattered and cheated! i had paid a deposit of more than 60% of the cars price for it, and was about to pay the rest when she called me and told me shes not selling the car! thats crazy, she insisted and sent my deposit back and... that was it.. i kept insisting and requesting, even was ready to pay more than the already high price of 17k pounds! but then it didnt happen so i guess it was not in my luck, but i am not giving up. i shall be back, if not with this tt, then with the other n/a for sure and for less than half the money.

For £17k you could fly to the UK, buy a lovely 6 speed TT and drive it home again mate Don't give up, a good Supra is worth the wait.

Matt H Posted February 9, 2009 Share Posted February 9, 2009 Unlucky mate, would have loved to have seen this sunroof modicication. Can't imagine that's easy to get right! It's not a bad idea coming over her to get a car you know. They are by far cheaper as long as you don't get stung on import etc. Are there any other countrys closer that drive on the left and have a better priced car economy for supras etc?

Guest scottaii Posted April 17, 2009 Share Posted April 17, 2009 This is a very strange topic / posts... Something doesn't add up here.. any one else feel that? I mean no twin pipe or sunroof in the new pictures .... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abz Posted April 17, 2009 Share Posted April 17, 2009 Assalam Walikum brother! haha didn't think I would see a TT Supra in Bangladesh! Good luck on holding onto it! An yep guys Bangladesh car trade is funny...lets put it this way, you could sell a 1986 I believe would be an E Reg Toyota Corrolla for £2-3k! Asad are these old pictures you have put up? As Scott has mentioned it now has no sunroof & twin tail exhaust pipes! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asad Posted April 17, 2009 Author Share Posted April 17, 2009 walaikum salaam, hey the car was sold to someone else and he being a purist removed the twin tail pipe set up and also welded the roof shut. He also ordered a ceiling from japan so thats coming in next week. The welding and paint of the roof is quite good. I miss the sunroof but apparently it leaked water in and was noisy at high speeds. I'll show u guys all in pics and details. Dont worry! For now i'm just too happy to have this car back. The previous owner happened to be a common friend to my close friend and left the country hence she came back to me! I know it sounds dodgy but this is luck and fate at its best.

SteveR Posted April 22, 2009 Share Posted April 22, 2009 Class One did an excellent driving tips roundup (here), you'll have to make the leap from what applies to the UK's road and what applies to your localty, but generally the advice will still apply.
