Caesard Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 TT insurance is affordable at the moment. Mines a whooping £210 for the year. So if you want a tt, now's a good time to get one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mike33 Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 I will try and get to a blue water soon! I only have an N/a but really love it. My wife loves the attention she gets when she's driving it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

markssupra Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 Don't take it to heart Sam, there's always been banter about n/a's. Look at what your doing with ITB's and modding your manifold. No one else has done that. There will always be someone faster/spent more etc. A Supra is a Supra whatever it is, so get your butt down to the next bw meet and have a drink Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
qwarrior Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 Sam, I have a TT auto bpu which needs a tonne of work. Jonny248 who lives round the corner has an N/A manual which is immaculate and sounds amazing. I track mine regularly so power is important, but I'm not competing for money nor profession. I do this for fun and given the opportunity would swap him in a heartbeat. Enjoy the car you have. Give yourself a slap, then grab the keys and go drive.

marc_p Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 I had an N/A a few years back, it was slow as s**t...........that is all(did look nice though ). In all fairness though, I don't find the TT that quick until it's BPU. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chazuk Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 (edited) Same could be said for single owners to TT sod what others think long as you are happy . I just took my 6spd 622hp single out my aero and replaced with a 5spd na some might say I am mad but this way it allows me to keep both a track supra and the aero. I did look into getting a TT to put my car back to original spec but the problem is it does not stop there the TT turbos are of that age now most will need replacing or refurb £1500 and near enough every tt I’ve seen needs or has had the valve stem seals need doing another £1000 as you will replace other things while you are there. I took the aero out at the weekend cruised down the motorway at 90+ with the roof off and windows down and could not help but think maybe the na is not all that bad yea it is slow and I would not bother to race anyone in it but it’s such a more pleasant drive for one the 5spd gearbox is silky smooth compared to the John Deere 6spd also I don’t have to worry about turbo seals etc or have any gauges for bpu egt and so on also my license might last a bit longer not to mention I spent most of time avoiding pot holes on a dual carriageway the roads are in such a state not sure doing high speed is really that sensible anymore .

kill1308 Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 Maybe you're just overly sensitive because you have a N/A ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marc_p Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 Maybe you're just overly sensitive because you have a N/A ? To be fair, we can be a little harsh on the N/A's......................but then again, it's not like they could catch us:d Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scott87 Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 I love my n/a and havent had too much stick. I do find it funny people who don't know Supra's. Ive had it a few times in petrol stations people saying things like: "ah nice car, they are single turbos, with like 400bhp arent they" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Raven Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 I had an N/A a few years back, it was slow as s**t...........that is all(did look nice though ). In all fairness though, I don't find the TT that quick until it's BPU. Thats very true. I remember going from my N/A to UK spec and waiting for this face ripping power. When i didnt get it i was convinced it was broken and took it to get fixed. There was nothing wrong with it. BPU is a very different machine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

berg Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 Times ive had my bonnet open people still think its a twin turbo, i even joked with a guy at work telling him it was 600bhp and even after looking at the engine he still believed it Mine will only be n/a for another 2 months max but who cares, supra is a supra, people just expect every supra to have 1000bhp because of youtube On a forum, your going to get some banter especially towards n/a but its all good fun........i think Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
