Havard Posted March 29, 2011 Share Posted March 29, 2011 Lovely colour, shame about the kit. The arse looks like it's on steroids...lol..!! H. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pauld36 Posted March 29, 2011 Author Share Posted March 29, 2011 the silver bits make it look very cheap unfortunately, but would be a very easy fix, i'm not overly keen on the view of the arches from the back but it looks nice from the profile shots (apart from silver bits lol) I'm glad the car is back to it's former glory though, i was shocked to see it in a salvage yard.. that engine looks awesome! it looks better in real life obviously the pics are low quality to post on here but the silver is the colour they spray the whole car before the blue is added,and the colour blue needed something to break it up a bit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pauld36 Posted March 29, 2011 Author Share Posted March 29, 2011 Ah yes, I remember it well, didn't realise it was the same car. Good to see that you saved it, that car had a shed load of lot of money put into it. I'm not a fan of the chargespeed kits (or Bomex fronts), but this front end works much better than the chargespeed one IMO. Personally I think the do luck front would work best on this kit. i was going for the do luck s1 but because we had to cut it in half ,extend it and rejoin ,it wouldnt work on the s1, and now its had about 4 more shed loads put into it lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Samurai 20V Posted March 29, 2011 Share Posted March 29, 2011 Quality of work looks superb..Well done.. The superwide arches are not for me, prefer the OEM look.. Its a cracker of a Supra though, definitely unique.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j_jza80 Posted March 29, 2011 Share Posted March 29, 2011 Don't like it tbh, those rear arches look like shelves. I prefer JP's wide arches as they flow with the rest of the car, when I look at those arches I want to pull up a chair and eat my maccy d's off it Just my opinion but if you like it that's all that matters. IMO the NUR wide body is on a par with the TRD kit, ie: bloody nice. I reckon NUR could potentially sell loads to the Yanks (right up their street) Paul36, love the blue colour.

Lee_e Posted March 29, 2011 Share Posted March 29, 2011 Looks nice , like others have said im not a huge fan of the kit and the random silver part of the front, but take nothing away from the worksman ship that has obviously gone into the build.

a98pmalcolm Posted March 29, 2011 Share Posted March 29, 2011 (edited) Colour is loverly, Engine is stunning, colour coded rims with a polished lip id go with But the silver bits dont work for me and the big kit looks so bolt on and drive away. Each to the own though and most important thing is that YOU like it as your the one driving it Paul EDIT: Just noticed the inside its looking very promising...

R3DG3CKO ROB Posted March 29, 2011 Share Posted March 29, 2011 what's the rear spoiler you've fitted? looks nice, although i think that a bgw is def in order to go with that kit good job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abz Posted March 29, 2011 Share Posted March 29, 2011 Without a doubt, I'd also say the sliver paint is off putting, same colour would looks much nicer If you want to break up the blue I'd get it off the wheels Interior looks lush, you got any pictures?

Ricky49 Posted March 29, 2011 Share Posted March 29, 2011 I'm not liking it,to me it's another supra ruined. Good work getting it finished though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supra Gaz Posted March 29, 2011 Share Posted March 29, 2011 The quality of the work looks superb, I would of got those silver bits in black though. What the engine spec? What wheel size is on the rear to fill those arches, or are you on hubcentric spacers? Looks good dude, nice to see a change from the usual Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve spedd Posted March 29, 2011 Share Posted March 29, 2011 I like the overall look but I would do the fron bit on the spoiler in blue and have the alloys black and polished rim. Nice fella Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pauld36 Posted March 29, 2011 Author Share Posted March 29, 2011 no spacers the tyre size on rear is.....355x40x19 pirelli p zero bargain at £325 each the camera def picked up the silver,it really dont stick out in real life.think im gonna def have to get to japfest to prove my point Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scotty71 Posted March 29, 2011 Share Posted March 29, 2011 lots of time has gone into this so , nice to see you have gone with power and not monstered up an all show no go n/a. Needs a big ass wing as stated to go with those bad ass rear arches Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KamaSupra Posted March 29, 2011 Share Posted March 29, 2011 I'm another one who's not such a huge fan of the silver lower part of the front bumper I do like the Charge Speed Supra though, so I think you should put the large rear spoiler back on, as it's just crying out for a rear spoiler to finish her off. Have you got any pics of the car from when you 1st picked her up? Great job with the engine too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marc_p Posted March 30, 2011 Share Posted March 30, 2011 My opinion, I'll start with the negatives:d -Don't like the Bomex front(never liked that bumper) -Don't like the silver bits -Would of smoothed the ridges over the arches off if it was mine Then the positives -Love the colour -Love the wheels -Love the interior -Impressive dyno figures I'll give it a marc_p rating of 6.5/10 taking the BHP into consideration (which considering I am VERY picky is quite an impressive achivement ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
