gt4tosupra Posted May 20, 2009 Share Posted May 20, 2009 I have bought a Supra and unfortunately cant keep this car as well I have owned the car for 2 years 6 months, and in this time have spent a hell of a lot of money on keeping it sweet! Lots of new parts: ALL suspension arms front and back replaced with receipts Front lower arms, Banana arms, fig 8's replaced Rear arms (all 6) replaced PU bushes from fennies on the rear radius arms New battery NGK iridium plugs Blitz panel filter Whiteline Rear ARB (brand new unfitted) High rise spoiler (primed but unfitted) Cam belt done approx 30k miles ago Toad cat 1 (£300) fitted Speedo converted to miles New pads all round New rear discs Mileage approx 91k HKS rear box 2 new bridgestone potenza fronts MOT till next Jan, tax 2 months £2800 ono Overall this is a very clean, close to excellent car! Car is near enough standard, except exhaust and air filter! Even has the standard late spec wheels on! Boost never raised, fast enough @ jap spec 255bhp i think! Only things wrong are brakes are pulling a bit, and the fuel gauge stopped working a few months ago, but i didnt see the need to fix the gauge, as when the fuel light comes on, it gets a full to the brim tankful of V power, which returns about 280 miles! so i always know how much fuel left using the trip counter!

gt4tosupra Posted May 20, 2009 Author Share Posted May 20, 2009 I know what u mean!! i've used this as an everyday car for the last 2 years, and now moved on to an NA supra!! Fuel bills are massive! But will i ever learn? Hell no!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
martini Posted May 20, 2009 Share Posted May 20, 2009 How much are the fuel bills on the NA? what's your MPG? Nice looking celica. Reminds me of SEGA Rally so much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kslb Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 just a quick one, should this not be in other items? Looks good though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gt4tosupra Posted May 21, 2009 Author Share Posted May 21, 2009 just a quick one, should this not be in other items? Looks good though. I'm hoping to get the biggest audience hopefully in the car section! As for mpg, i've had 30mpg on a long haul motorway journey, but average town/motorway driving is about 23mpg, and the worst i have had is 17mpg when i took it to my favourite country roads, which technically means it did about 11mpg on those roads!!

R Black Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 How does it compare with supe? Good luck with the sale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gt4tosupra Posted May 21, 2009 Author Share Posted May 21, 2009 How does it compare with supe? Good luck with the sale. If u mean fuel wise, the gt4 is more economical, never had less than 21mpg average on a tank, but normally about 26mpg on average driving, 32mpg on long haul motorway trips!!

Benyon Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 I have seen this car in real life and its a very clean and unmolested example with no silly mods if you're in the market for a GT4 this is deffo worth a look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dan4 Posted May 29, 2009 Share Posted May 29, 2009 I hate to say it but i struggled to get rid of a concourse low mileage UK st205 last year for £4000, its such a shame for such a lot of car that imho is far prettier than equivalent scoobies/evo's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
