safcdixon Posted April 12, 2013 Share Posted April 12, 2013 Iirc sted is the events organiser for the north west so i would expect the car will have been taken care of in the past, obviously not a guarentee but its something, maybe pm sted and ask him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sideexitsupra Posted April 12, 2013 Share Posted April 12, 2013 Sted really looks after his cars so it would have been immaculate when he moved it on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Cravo15 Posted April 12, 2013 Share Posted April 12, 2013 Friend of mine who lives in Durham is going to have a look at the one in North Shields for me over the weekend and report back. The crack on the rear bumper on the one I linked above put me off a little. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Cravo15 Posted April 12, 2013 Share Posted April 12, 2013 Any chance of a turbo in my budget you think guys? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Cravo15 Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 Scrap that last post. White NA for me. Test driving one over the weekend and if I feel good in it I will sign up for full membership. Having been on CCUK for a fair while and being staff over there I totally understand people's reactions to noobs and saw a post earlier saying a seller wouldn't answer noobs as the club needs to keep running so that's fair enough totally get that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tsia Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 People are just slow to answer in this section, don't worry! I can't see you getting a TT for that budget, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Iirc it was 4k) if so then yeah you should be able to find a auto tt for that if your patient and have the cash ready to buy when one comes up for sale because if one comes up at that price then it will be snapped up quickly, but dont expect a super clean one for that money expect one that needs a bit of tidying Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Cravo15 Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 Thanks for the responses guys. I think on my budget of £3-4k I would rather spend £3k on an NA in good condition and have £1k for subtle mods than blow the lot on something that needs further work doing. Save up for a bit and then go TT in a year or two There's a white one in the classifieds with the Vielside kit that I would have been interested in at the price he was after but I don't like the veilside rear wing or front bumper unfortunately. Anyway no rush I'm sure ill find something in budget and I do have my heart set on white so will wait and see Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
safcdixon Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 You can get a stock spoiler for peanuts mate, same with the front bumper both easy swaps too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Cravo15 Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?t=288110 This one here fella. How much would all the work cost to put that right and to have the skirts and arches blended into the body you reckon. Or am I better off with Steds old one as mentioned before in this thread ??

safcdixon Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 Both could be very nice examples again they just need a little bit of tlc, i dont have any idea on cost maybe ask a trader on here like darnley autoworks (rob mitchell) or autobody solutions (baldy) for a ballpark figure.

Guest Cravo15 Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 Awesome. Will look into it Celica has a buyer lined up already he just asked me to hold on for a short while Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan_Q Posted April 16, 2013 Share Posted April 16, 2013 Hi Guys I am a moderator over on CCUK ooh, hello there sir, ex moderator here fellow ex celica owner- heres a pic of my ones, 5th and 2nd gen: https://fbcdn-sphotos-g-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-snc7/2671_62583889734_6341451_n.jpg https://fbcdn-sphotos-g-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-frc1/317036_10150401007274735_1072843467_n.jpg i miss them both! like your seven and love that gen six earlier in this thread too 4K should find you a nice NA. I'm not sure what "top end" NA's go for, but if you can get a V161 6 speed NA then it wouldn't be as much work making a TT6 or NAT in the future from the same car? just an idea. i managed to get an early low mileage w58 5 speed na for much cheaper than your budget, and I love the driving experience. like others have said as long as the geo is good and there are no cheap nasty tyres, the back should be nice and planted, I only had one un-provoked "moment" so far in mine, but it was very wet and it had cheap tyres on that came with the car back then. infact it was soon after i got it, so i think i can put that one down to the driver Good luck with your search and keep us posted Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Linty264 Posted April 26, 2013 Share Posted April 26, 2013 I'm in the same situation as you mate but I'm jumping from a 2006 gt celica to a BPU supra TT in a couple of weeks lol I shall enjoy the learning curve, nice spanky clean celica mate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
