Ricky49 Posted June 5, 2011 Share Posted June 5, 2011 I have been thinking about this for a while and tried to change my mind but it always comes back to me thinking about selling it. THE CAR It's a 1995 TT6 I bought it from Garage Whifbitz as a present for the torture of getting married. I had it about a year before it went full BPU and a Greddy 4'' FMIC, after that I found Lee P and SRD on my doorstep who then looked after the car servicing etc before another year past and I went single. THE SPEC All work was carried out by Lee P of SRD to his usual high standards. Stock short block Super Spark coil packs SRD Stage 2 Cams Brian Crower Single Valve Springs Titanium retainers TRD front strut brace Whifbitz Setrab 16 row oil cooler HKS Manifold Greddy Inlet manifold Q45 Throttle body Turbocharger & Induction: Precision Turbo 6765 Journal 1.00 A/R turbo HKS II 60mm Wastegate PHR 4'' Intake and Filter Greedy 3 row fmic Greedy alloy top radiator hose Greedy Type R BOV SRD Radiator TRD stat Fuel, Tuning & ECU: Syvecs SG6 ECU 3.5bar map sensor Aeromotive FPR Aeromotive high flow filter 2x Walbro fuel pumps SRD Fuel lines Twin feed Fuel rail Injector Dynamic 2200cc injectors PHR Triple fuel pump hanger NGK irdium spark plugs Exhaust: HKS TI 4'' exhaust HKS DP Blitz midpipe Drivetrain: OEM Fly Wheel RPS Stage 3 clutch with street disc Weight Reduction & Transfer: N/A Suspension, Wheels, Tires & Brakes: Poterfield R4S Front and Rear Pads UK spec KAD 356mm 6pot fronts KAD 4pot rear calipers with Stoptech OEM drilled discs Ohlins with Eibach springs Goodridge braided brake lines Advans RS 18x9 and 18x10 ET35 Interior & ICE: Bride Leather seats OMP steering wheel with quick release boss Chrome dial surrounds JL Audio 6.5 inch speakers front and back Pioneer Amp Pioneer Amp Alpine Sub SRD sourced/built sub box Kenwood double din head unit Apexi Oil pressure gauge Apexi Oil Temp gauge Apexi Fuel Pressure gauge Apexi EGT gauge Apexi Electronic Boost Gauge (not fitted yet) AEM AFR gauge Carbon fibre cam cover APR carbon cooling plate Exterior: Toyota aftermarket side skirts and rear spats Clear front and side indicators Rear Facelift lights Front Facelift lights The car has the usual scratches of a car this age would but I am very pleased with how it looks. My build thread http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?227597-Ricky49-Precision-Billet-6765SP-Single-Turbo-Conversion-Build I will post some pictures up tomorrow as Im on my phone at the moment.

Bailey. Posted June 5, 2011 Share Posted June 5, 2011 Why are you selling bud?? soo soon after the build too!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ricky49 Posted June 5, 2011 Author Share Posted June 5, 2011 I have to admit it bud but I just don't feel it anymore. I prefered it been BPU at least it worked. I got it back in January and it wasn't right (no ones fault) just a bad choice with the injectors, then Ive had it 5 months of going backwards and forwards trying to sort it out. Yes I know it's part of the game but I just wanted to get in the car, drive it have fun and enjoy it. That's what makes me want to sell it I'm not enjoying it. I can't thank Lee and Ryan enough for what they have put into the car and time and effort fault finding my fuelling problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imi Posted June 5, 2011 Share Posted June 5, 2011 Ricky The thought of selling has crossed my mind before too and now with the engine issues it that time again. More than funds its the constant backwards and forwards that puts me off as I simply don't have the time nor the patience to deal with it - so I appreciate exactly where you are coming from. Just do remember what sort of performance this car is capable of and that it will be very hard to find anything that matches it within a similar price bracket or even twice that with the comfort and reliability of a Toyota. Whatever you decide, ensure that you take your time and avoid making a rash decision. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sdistc Posted June 6, 2011 Share Posted June 6, 2011 As Imi says, don't make a rash decision - it's often *very* hard to find as clean, straight, and well-maintained car as the one you'd sell (especially if it's an almost 20 year old sportscar!) if you regret the sale. Not only that, but unfortunately down-time is a part of the game if you're making 600+ (my own car was off the road for 18 months with its build, due to bad luck and unforeseen problems) ... which only makes the finished article that much more special. Hope you decide to keep the car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ricky49 Posted June 9, 2011 Author Share Posted June 9, 2011 No it's my best mate brother, he used to run a fibreglass body Pulsar with over 500bhp down the strip. He broke his back in an accident and he will have to have all the pedal arrangemnt change as he can't move his ankles. The guy that built his Pulsar will most likely be doing all the work for him. Next for me god knows, clear some bills and maybe next year try a find an already built monster, something like the old Envy Demo Supra would be nice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
