So, as some of you may know/remember I bought the above car from JamieP last August and did have some plans to turn it into a bit of a beast, however now my job has changed I'm needed to have a car to drive to work so have had to take the decision to let this go.

 

Since I bought it, I reckon I've done no more than about 600 miles. Spec list is the same as before, and is as follows:

Suspension, Wheels, Tires & Brakes:

Rota SVN's copy of the Rays RE30

KYB Adjustable Shocks

Eibach Lowering Springs

UK Brakes Front And Rear

I have a pretty thick amount of paperwork that comes with the car detailing it's history

In the main, it's a great car to drive.... has started for me every time, first time, never let me down, no leaks but there are one or 2 things I need to tell you about:

 

1 - slight kerb on back right wheel

2 - does need new roof seals (from Toyota, brand new they are £380 inc VAT) (this is where the top of the window meets the roof, think it's a 2 or 3 peice kit from back of the door area, all the way up and along down to the front of the door by the wing mirror) It does drip on your arm a bit when it's raining.

3 - either a new clutch, or just a new clutch plate and thrust bearing - (clutch plate from THOR is about £100) The clutch itself is a single plate clutch from a Toyota Celica - THOR can give you the model number need if you wanted to replace like for like.

 

I was planning on doing the above myself and selling for the same as what I bought it from JamieP, but I do need to get rid, and if the new buyer wanted to add a super charger or twin turbo setup to it, then you'd need a better clutch anyway

 

The price for the above is £6800 OVNO

 

At present the car is NOT advertised elsewhere as I'd love to see it stay in the club, any enquiries please PM me and I'll get back to you ASAP. Car is located in Bristol

You need this car mate.

 

You know it makes sense, why resist? ;)

 

I wish I could justify buying this, im paying for my wedding at the moment and right now im thinking the Supra would be more fun than the misses!

This is a great car guys, it is ready to go for crazy power with a Supercharger or Turbo, just needs a good clutch.

 

At least she said I can buy the 1jz I have been leaving pics of about, lucky as I already bought some 264 HKS cams for it haha!
