Guest George89 Posted January 10, 2010 Share Posted January 10, 2010 In about a month or 2 i will be doing a NA to TT conversion on my white supra NA. I need a list of companys or people who do this conversions so i can work out how much money i need to loan for the conversion. Also would it be expensive for traction control and ABS? as i don't have them Thank you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mathew Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 have these come down below £1000 yet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Raven Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 have these come down below £1000 yet? Fitting? maybe. Both...........Not a hope Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackso11 Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 Below £1000?! They are not even below £2000 yet and I doubt they will be for a few years. Traction control is crap but I always have it turned on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fitz Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 I'll be heading down this route if not I'll sell and look for a TT6 but I'll ask nearer the time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob_Mitchell Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 im with you on that mate!! been putting it off for ages but it think now is the time to start the savings process. anyone know a rough figure for tt auto conversion, i assume the n/a auto box is different?? but want to stay auto with the tt.

Thats a good question. but i think its hard for guys in the know to put prices to things with out being specific. and could eat up a fair bit of time.

Rob_Mitchell Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 yeah i agree i know its hard to estimate a job like that, im investigating going tt auto. i was wondering are the engine and gearboxes rebuilt (re-furbished) or are they just from another vehicle and put straight in?? some people have had these conversions done so just picking the brain a bit before i committ.

twijesiri Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 HI I had my own conversion done with Jezz on the forum and the guys at Silverstone Performance over 3 years ago now. I cant rate them highly enough. They did a good job and listen to what i wanted and advised on ways of getting it. I would try and speak to him when your ready to get quotes.

Rob_Mitchell Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 yeah i rang them they sound good, plus i have dealt with them for other parts. i am considering them plus i think they rebuild the engines. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twijesiri Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 HI I know this kind of thing is not cheap but i think on reflection in terms of cost i would have been better off buying a TT to start with with. But as i had the NA and i had put so much into that car in terms of money and care in the end i think its a better way to go as i know the providence of the vehicle and well lets face it i love my car!

Smallshinyant Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 thats a goo dpoint you bring up twijesiri, I have a completly stock n/a would it the wiser choice to sell and buy a TT. Or is the hassle of trying to find a good TT when i could get the parts onto mine not worth it? Not after a precise answer to a point of view.

The only reason i wouldnt sell mine is had a ton of body mods and its an Aero, so i works out cheaper for me to put the TT engine in rather than buy a TT aero.

Guest George89 Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 Well i am definatly going towards the NA to TT route as i don't really like any of the supras online atm and going BPU at the same time. saves money on labour in the future Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
