Will get a few more during the next week once I've given it a good clean.

 

The drive is absolutely spot on and I'm over the moon with it.

Thanks to Dave and all who helped build/make it what it is.

:lol:

I think mines getting abit sick of me swapping and changing but I'm certain this is the one ;)

Love those wheels. I would get some OEM skirts or Ridox and that would be a stunner.

 

It's strange how people come back to the Supra. I (yet again) have plans to let ours go after Dragonball and JAE, not for ant particular reason other than the fact that after 5 years of Supras I want a change. There are a couple of cars that I have always wanted, Porsche 997 or AM V8 Vantage and the prices are now sub £30K.

 

The problem I have is that Supras are getting older and quality low mileage cars are getting harder to find. If I let ours go, I may not find the same again without sheeling out some serious money for a 15 year old car.

very nice mate

 

That does look good

 

Looks awesome fella, has a really nice stance too

 

Cheers guys appreciate it :thumbs:

 

How you going to fit that hifi in there lol

 

Will give it my best shot :eyebrows: :lol:

 

nice purchase, really do like the top secret bumper.

 

Awesome looking car mate. I too like the Top Secret bumper. I think the wheels really suit the car too. Not too overrated or understated.

I was worried it may have had to come off to get it up my drive to the garage but fortunately at the right angle it just makes it without scraping :)

Thanks alot.

 

Lovely supra!

 

Cheers bud :cool:

 

Nice buy, any plans for it Gaz?

 

Lovely!

Thanks guys, plans for the time being are enjoying it and getting to know the car really.

I have afew small changes in mind as I was mainly looking for a Supra with them to start with but at least I can now make it a bit more my own with afew subtle changes.

Over time I think I'll be going for a trial rear or adding a carbon diffuser, ridox or top secret side skirts and a roof spoiler.

May look at a different set of wheels eventually but not in the immediate future, may just get the centers powder coated something different.

The calipers could do with a lick of paint and the drivers door needs a little attention so there is a few bits I can be concentrating on :D

Thats 1 of the reasons why I was so keen on this one H. A 'K' plate is pretty hard to come by with 78k miles and the spec/quality of the motor is spot on.

I had been to view a few near me and some 'mint' examples clearly weren't so paid off to do some travelling in the end for this.

 

Thanks for all the comments guys, appreciate it and will keep updated with any changes or tweaks.

 

Its good to be back :thumbs:
