Rob_Mitchell Posted April 25, 2013 Author Share Posted April 25, 2013 (edited) More exciting news. Been a bit concerned about the map on the car as it was done with the cam sensor issue. I text Ryan today and he contacted me on his day off and is mapping it at 2.30. Lee has been an absolute legend and is meeting Ryan to do it. Seriously cant thank the guys enough as they are SO busy and have other things going on. Massive credit to the club... Thanks Guys!! I owe you big time. Picking it up later today and its nice knowing its all mapped and sorted. Edited April 25, 2013 by Rob_Mitchell (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mwilkinson Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 (edited) That is a beautiful engine bay. I've noticed that as the number of Supras decrease the remaining owners become a lot more passionate about maintaining and reconditioning the cars. I like this as it gives them a fresh look and a new lease of life. Some amazing projects going on at the moment.

Priced that as the number of Supras decrease the remaining owners become a lot more passionate about maintaining and reconditioning the cars. I like this as it gives them a fresh look and a new lease of life. Some amazing projects going on at the moment. I have come to realise now and accept i prob wont ever see the £28k asking price which i would want for the car when the day comes. Its not everyones cup of tea but you wont see another one like it! The sad thing is i doubt it will see a new owner as in parts its worth a bloody fortune, i love it to bits though and really love the way it drives now! nice off boost but very quick when needed.

The answer to this is to keep it and treasure it. Like others you never did this to make money, it was the challenge and enjoyment of making it custom and so very clean. That's worth it's weight in gold (see what I did there ). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its caught me out a few times when pulling away from the lights and the arse has gone very light on me (2 lane user) , just love it now!
