SupraDan24 Posted July 11, 2010 Share Posted July 11, 2010 Would have been easier if you'd put Supra NA in the title but hey ho. Have you tried Pistonheads also, there's lots of NA's on there at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

May just scrape a dog of a tt, some going for around the 4k mark on PH's, eBay etc! Single turbo you have no chance I'm afraid! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morpheus Posted July 11, 2010 Share Posted July 11, 2010 hi all , just joined and looking to purchase a supra, for 3-4k all considered if you can supply pics and spec, I’m looking to buy at end of month (july) if price is right, let me know what you got and ill message back long road ahead Hi and welcome! That road will seem very short, as these cars eat miles for breakfast! Unfortunately they wash them down with gallons of petrol! My only gripe is that every journey is over too quickly though. You'll probably be looking at a naturally aspirated one, unless someone has a really cheap TT but not likely on here with the money that goes into them. I think generally they start at 5k. JamieP said he had one when I joined in March. I keep telling people but not sure if he still has it. I'll ask this question to save others, are you more interested in getting on the ladder, so to speak, or is a turbo your desire, as it would be worth the extra grand or so over budget and be treated with more respect, sadly. Also consider insurance, as UK TT's apparently cost less than the JDM (Japanese Domestic Market) counterparts. The Uk's are significantly higher spec. (maybe a goal for the future). Just learn as much as you can about the variants, from whatever source, before you buy but like everything else, you generally get what you pay for. Or in my case for example........after looking for a GZ (a JDM TT variant but cheaper than a UK TT) and changing my mind, I paid 6k for a '93 NA auto but it was advertised as a '98 (was sold on the looks way before I saw the V5C!) and it has the look I wanted (after browsing every other one I could find within budget) and I'll be doing my own turbo conversion in a couple of years, so ultimately, I'll have exactly the car I want, to my spec. with new turbo etc. albeit for more money than it could/should have cost. So money isn't everything. All depends on your objective, so maybe list your ideal spec. (Bodykit/colour/manual/auto/turbo etc.?) and the guys on here will let you know if it's realistically within budget, as you must have some idea of what you'd prefer? Are funds strictly limited, for example? Will you be modifying it later? If so, it may be best to save up for one that's already done etc. as it's way cheaper in the long run. My feeling is that you''ll be the proud owner of a TT very soon but check the insurance first, regardless and good luck! Edit. Blimey, there were no replies when I started typing!

supra_si Posted July 13, 2010 Share Posted July 13, 2010 ive just put mine up on PH's, a little outside your range but im in no rush to sell so gives you time to save up that bit more.. job done Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SupraDan24 Posted July 13, 2010 Share Posted July 13, 2010 For 5k you can just about scrape a TT Auto...just about. If you stretched it too 6K in the near future then you'll be in a much better position, there's some good examples going for 5-6k. Ebay has seen alot of cheapies recently as well. Good luck hunting.
