Guest Dcowan1991 Posted October 27, 2012 Share Posted October 27, 2012 Hey my names Dominic. I have just bought myself a 1993 Toyota Supra N/A Japanese import. I'm new to the Supra scene and i'm hoping to get the info on the good and the bad of these cars. So far it has been all good. This one i bought is in immaculate condition. It was imported in 2006. Its all original except a 5Zigen exhaust, coilovers and alloys. It still has the original tools in the boot along with the Japanese doughnut. I've posted some pictures below, Can you give me your opinion on how it looks please. Thanks in advance and I look forward to your info that you give me. P.S. The alloys are going in to get refurbished in a dark gun metal grey. The chrome is really not my cup of tea. I might be interested in buying a front splitter or maybe just getting that one colour coded. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveR Posted October 27, 2012 Share Posted October 27, 2012 Hello Dominic and Car's looking smart. I agree with your assessment that the wheels need to be dark rather than uber-blingy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Dcowan1991 Posted October 27, 2012 Share Posted October 27, 2012 Cheers mate. Yeah the wheels are a bit of a let down lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Havard Posted October 27, 2012 Share Posted October 27, 2012 Are the wheels corroded or scuffed? They look fine to me but i do like shiny things. Get clear indicators for the front, leather seats and an active spoiler set up and that will be a nice car. H. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Dcowan1991 Posted October 27, 2012 Share Posted October 27, 2012 Yeah the wheels are in BAD condition. They do go with the silver body but it really is too bling factor for me lol. Cheers for the feedback. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Dcowan1991 Posted October 27, 2012 Share Posted October 27, 2012 Can anyone tell me what kind of wheels they are? I'm thinking Brabus? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Havard Posted October 27, 2012 Share Posted October 27, 2012 Can anyone tell me what kind of wheels they are? I'm thinking Brabus? [ATTACH=CONFIG]159810[/ATTACH] The B is for Brabus or Bling I can't decide. I didn't think Brabus would have had the same centres as Jap spec cars.

Guest Dcowan1991 Posted October 27, 2012 Share Posted October 27, 2012 Possibly fakes. I dunno, I like them but just not the colour. They are going in for the refurb next week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Dcowan1991 Posted October 27, 2012 Share Posted October 27, 2012 Hi there Geo. Im based in Falkirk at the moment. All that I need is to get my handbrake cable checked out. If I go over a bump the Handbrake light comes on then goes back off. Cheers for the welcome. - - - Updated - - - Thanks LOGIE. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gabriella Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 Hi and Welcome to the Club Can anyone tell me what kind of wheels they are? I'm thinking Brabus? [ATTACH=CONFIG]159810[/ATTACH] They look very depressing. I'm thinking of a word what starts of U? Unbeautiful is close. Not sure what wheels are they but for sure they don't look good.

Guest Dcowan1991 Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 Thanks for the welcome guys. Yeah I will try to come along to one of the meets. The wheels are being painted this week hopefully. Thanks again for the welcome. Absolutely fantastic car to drive. Obviously not as fast as a turbo but its a very good cruiser with good power. And its manual!! lol Cheers Dom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Check your brake fluid level that might be putting the handbrake light on,if its low it will move about over bumps making the warning light come on.
