Guest blueangel Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 but how can you sell a car as an 8 second car without an engine because surely without the engine its just a drag prepped shell. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/MK4-TOYOTA-SUPRA-DRAG-CAR-JPS-MOTORSPORT-/370464568068?pt=Automobiles_UK&hash=item564168b304 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamieP Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 Nice start if you want to build a drag car, been for sale for a while now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedM Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 My 306 is faster than that over the 1/4 mile and I'll throw in the engine for free too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morpheus Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 Looks like they blew up the engine. They'll supply 'an' engine though, so don't worry, atleast it will look fast. I'm really digging the rear lights though, I must say but the Veilsides don't work for me spoilerless. Bomex would have, side and rear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He removed the engine to put in his new drag car, fastest supra in the world i think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest blueangel Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 lol the point of the thread was how can you sell some thing as something its not, in the add there are numerous references to this supe being an 8 second supra when clearly it aint.

Also to the fact that there's no engine and gearbox, including photos. They're just reminding us of it's previous performance so that the new owner can be assured that the rolling chassis is built to make safe 8 second runs.

Lude Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 does anyone else think thats expensive for what it is? shell, cage, wheels & coilovers, few gauges, and uprated fuel system? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nic Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 It would cost a lot more than that to build, if you're seriously into drag racing I'd imagine it would be a relatively cheap starting point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamieP Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 (edited) does anyone else think thats expensive for what it is? shell, cage, wheels & coilovers, few gauges, and uprated fuel system? No, anyone wants to get into drag racing this is a great start for them, fair few $ worth of parts still on that car and the setup is proven to work.

Morpheus Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 Agreed. I'd be too embarrassed to wear women's clothes and makeup whilst racing it though. Not really my scene. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dude Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 lol the point of the thread was how can you sell some thing as something its not, in the add there are numerous references to this supe being an 8 second supra when clearly it aint. The car is a proven 8 sec car in other words it has all the equipment needed to run to 8.5, Im sure Leon would be more than happy to quote you for delivering it as an 8 sec turn key car, ebverything on the car is known to be capable of running in the 8's fuel wheels studs shafts etc all proven.

dude Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 does anyone else think thats expensive for what it is? shell, cage, wheels & coilovers, few gauges, and uprated fuel system? You are joking right, the cage in that thing is over 3K in fact that car must owe Leon WELL over 150K over the years. It was last time I saw it one of the cleanest Supras around.
