thetrashcanman Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 Yeah right!!!! +1 to that, I could never keep control of my right foot even in my N/A Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob_Mitchell Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 Best thing to do is come to the next bluewater meet... you would have a selection of cars there. Ill take you for a spin in my auto single turbo if you fancy it. Im a huge lover of the autobox, i just like the way it drives and launches when you need it too but i do agree that in a non turbo its pretty sluggish. A decent bpu supra is a hell of a car which ticks alot of boxes imo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Twisted Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 oil changes and services etc are fine i do my current car every 4000 miles so wont be much of a change there i also use the best oils etc i can on my car aswel so shouldnt be too bad on that side of it. yea its always better to buy the better parts, do it once do it properly is my saying. i can see tyres being expensive though but thats the way it is i suppose. i wont be doing too many miles a day in the car so hopefully if i keep control of the right foot it should be OK-ish It won't really cost you much more if you do all that anyway. It's really just the fuel that will cost you a lot. You will get a happy right foot no doubt. Especially if you have never had a turbo before like me. I don't think it's possible to drive the supra and not put your foot down when you see a nice straight bit of road ahead of you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DamanC Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 Yup! Very small world! Sadly after 7 years it was time to move on. Not because of problems but I had other wants. If I had the space I would have kept her but I got good money so it was an easy choice. Plus this was what I replad her with; Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest miniboy11 Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 It sure is. Do you come through tolgate sometimes by any chance because I have seen that car or one similar come through tolgate and on the way out boot it and my God it sounds like thunder. Nice car though wish I had the money for one of those. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DamanC Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 I have been known to catch up with a few of the older guys from time to time at Tollgate. It does sound like thunder so you probably have seen/heard it. New plate now which is quite distingtive; P911 GO. Give us a wave if you see me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
