My new car.....

It's not that bad tbh, the Supra just feels bigger as it's taller and wider inside, but leg room I can't notice a difference, just have difficulties in getting out as it's so low!

 

Oh it is, I could barely sit in one (my head was touching the roof). I tried sitting in one with a helmet on for a passenger run too, absolutely no chance! Even with the seat bolted straight to the floor I think I would struggle. :(

I am 5"8 & considering when I met you I had to look up I not surprised! :D

 

Nice buy SG! Looks pretty good, but make sure you take good care of her. The Supra is very robust & can handle less love & care but as you have read up on the rotories you will know, look after it well or this could be you:

Lol nice post :D I know they need maintenance, but that's all it is, they really aren't much trouble if looked after :) Especially with the miles I do too.

 

lovely car but nothing could have matched the looks of your sup, it was gorgeous!!!

 

Yeah, she was lovely, but I won't be leaving this one as it is now :sly:

 

Always liked these, but always been to worried by horror storys with them.

 

Be interesting to see how you get on with it.

 

Ah theres nothing wrong with RX-7's if looked after, yeah the engines need rebuilding every 60 - 100k, but it would take me a very, very very long time to cover that sort of mileage :)

 

I like it, although your supra was a stunner!

 

This one will be a stunner, give me a few months :D I'm not going too mad though, I like it subtle, suits it. Going to get a Shine Auto Street diffuser, different front, but mainly tuning, not too bothered with exterior mods.

Nice looking car, Ive always wanted to put a 2JZ in one, we have that RX8 and I justy dont like the power delivery of the rotary, still as soon as we have finished developing some parts for it Matt is letting me turn it into something a little more interesting!!!;)

Wouldn't mind a spin in it though, mine will be running soon so pop round and I'll take you out in mine and you can take me for a spin in that one!!!;)

RX8's are bloody slow though! You've been saying it's going to be ready soon for like a year lol it's never going to be ready! But yeah I'll come up, but I've got a better idea, how about I let you take the RX7 for a spin, and I take your Supra out :D:p

It wont be slow for what the nutters have planned for it :eyebrows:

 

Lovely looking car i must say always liked them but dont know anything about them!!

 

Is the power delivery like an RX8 or is it better as i found the RX8 to have no torque whatsoever?!

SO you moved over to the dark side:) Sweet car! I have owned to FD's before and they are very very nice, be careful as they are tailhappy as well.

 

Dont be put off by the engine, it can be very reliable if taken care of properly.

 

Yep I know they are tail happy :D Not too different from the Sup though :)

The RX8 has a lot less power, and is very different IMO.

its a beauty! i drove a jap import rx-7 about 2 years ago after my mate bought it. it was so heavily modified u could poor a bucket of pennys over the engine and not 1 would of hit the floor! there was no room! it went off the clock in about 200 meters! fastest car i ever been in! ... but... the engines are sooooo tempermental, if the engine was more reliable id get 1. would have to be red :D 60k miles is about average for a rebuild.. but thats not enough for my liking.. love the cars.. just jap cars ment to live forever.. rx-7s dont! but ill agree they are sh** fast! beautiful! and what a ride!.. ill stick with the supra though :)

Nice car, I do like RX7's but your supra is/was nicer

 

Yep, and twice the price too :D

 

Nice :D to date still the best car i've driven :)

 

Thanks ;)

Yeah I think I'll go for the C-West or RE-Amemiya flush headlights if I can get hold of some!

Yeah I would've stuck with the Supra too but buying this rx has freed up a lot of cash.

 

Drove it today for the second time since I've bought it, you really need to concentrate lol, it's so aggressive and such a harsh ride, it's pretty quick, but I miss how the Supra pretty much drove itself, and was so smooth, they're both amazing cars, but very very different to drive.

 

I think that looks stunning :)

 

Nothing like my sup, but it'll do :)
