listy Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 Right, with me looking at moving early next year, redundancy looming (which I most likely will be getting ) and a nice payout to boot, I'm thinking of getting a supra shell, and aesthetically make it how I want, then drop everything from my current supra into it. I want to go wide, and love the Ridox front and skirts, but not keen on the arches I'm thinking Nur Motorsport arches, with Ridox front and skirts, and possibly a shine auto diffuser at the back. Spoiler/wing I'm undecided on as of yet. How do people think that would look? Or other ideas? Don't be nice about it if you think it would be pants, I want honest opinions here, as once I start it, it WILL be staying that way, so I don't want to make any mistakes, hence starting this thread well in advance so I have plenty of time to make my mind up. I also want it to be one of a kind Discuss Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaan W Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 Ive always loved the nur arches I think that combo would look very tasty indeed. Do it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guigsy Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 Might have missed something but maybe you should save your redundancy incase you don't get a job for a year like I did... Just saying Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just saying Already covered that mate Rent for a year plus bills put back, funds for second car put back, debts paid off, £10k put back for if the poop hits the fan, and I'll still have circa £15k left Plus, I have 3 jobs lined up already, one of which is rather well paid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

listy Posted March 13, 2013 Author Share Posted March 13, 2013 Gtr blood blat blat rude boi If I didn't have a wife and kids......... But a divorce would cost more than a GTR Plus, I'm no traitor And deserved it is too, if there's anything I don't kind my taxes on its the armed forces. Do it mate, it will look brilliant, with the right, very wide wheels and in the right colour. I think it would have to be.........WHITE The carbon lip, skirt bottoms and diffuser would stand out then. Would probably go TS bonnet painted with vents left carbon too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But a divorce would cost more than a GTR And there's me thinking the supra owners are getting boring lol, I have supra love and will prob never not have one, love them to bits. Back on topic. Listy I like your plans, the side skirts will need cutting to make them fit nur arches, so carbon option is a risk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
listy Posted March 13, 2013 Author Share Posted March 13, 2013 If I got the fibreglass arches, could I not modify them to fit instead? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob_Mitchell Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 If I got the fibreglass arches, could I not modify them to fit instead? Yeah you could mate. Sorry just thought you was going carbon nur arches. I too would go fibreglass arches as you can do more with them and cut them around.

Supra Gaz Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 White would be nice, especially with a light blue tint with the sun? Sounds quite a lot like a plan. You have permission. Now go build it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
listy Posted March 13, 2013 Author Share Posted March 13, 2013 Won't be until at least next year mate, and will take some time, as until the paint work, I'll be taking my time to do it myself, and do it right. I was thinking of going TS evolution, as its rare as rocking horse faeces, but thought a bit of a mix that hasn't been done before would be better.

Supra Gaz Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 I love the evolution kit, I keep thinking about dropping jm imports a line and seeing if they can source me a supra with one already fitted, my sensible head takes over (and the fear of an angry wife) and I put the phone back down. It will look great mate, I look forward to the thread. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robzki Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 Sounds great John, look forward to seeing this one on the go locally. Have you thought what you would do with the old bits and pieces from yours! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 Nur or Ridox front arches (the Ridox fronts have a fantastic profile!), Nur rear arches, Ridox skirts with carbon lower section, Ridox front bumper with the extended carbon front splitter, UK spec rear with Shine/TS carbon rear diffuser, Stout (Varis) bonnet, APR GT-300 rear carbon wing, facelift lights all round, Audi Ibis White paintwork, Volk GT-F wheels in suitable width/offset. That would be fantastic. If I didn't go the way I am going, that would be near to a dream offering of an alternative Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hodge Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 The Nur MOTORSPORTS is a nice widebody but I'm a TRD man through and through. If done right with the correct stance on the car, it looks freaking amazing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DodgyRog Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 It sounds good Jon, but I think I would have the Ridox front wings in that combo, thee isn't enough of a difference to be worth the effort trying to get the Nur frontwings to fit with the other bits I totally understand you not wanting the Ridox rear arches, I was intending to go with them, but decided against it, as they overlap the rear bumper, making it near impossibe to have it blended in Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
