IDO Posted July 1, 2013 Share Posted July 1, 2013 My supra is now about to be put up for sale.. just want you fine people to help me get a fair price for it, and being modded i can't just look in the parkers guide, and i know i won't get anywhere near the thousands i've spent on it over the last 8 or so years.. FOR PICs See "view my Supra" More pics will be taken for the AD but I think these show the car pretty well for the moment. Owned since Jan 05. Had the car straight from importer/dealer, Japanese SPEC 93'. WAS Std at time of purchase was Normally Aspirated (NA/Non turbo) Automatic. Now TT BPU 6 speed, tt-6speed work done in Jan 09' EST around 400 BHP (to be confirmed on dyno run) had 99k in km on clock when i got it, and then had it switched to miles now reads after 8years of my ownership 137000 (roughtly will need checking but not far off) done around 7-8k since engine swap (engine was a rebuilt/refurbed upgraded tt engine) Car has just been serviced and mot'ed. MOT till 06-2014, taxed til Aug - 2013 During this service this I had Goodridge braided hoses put on the car and there was a slight lack of pull on the 2nd turbo so I have Just had the whole turbos unit refurbed (this service and refurb best part of 3k of work) All work by supra specialist Garage Whifbitz. Apexi n1 evo 4inch exhaust system, Ultralight, nurburgring 755 18' wheels with toyo tyres. slightly lowered on Tein super street adjustable coil-over suspension with EDFC (electric adjustable dampening control unit.. mounted in dash) Evolution Explosion front bumper, sideskirts and rear bumper in standard Toyota white (040), clear front indicators with twin L.E.D side light conversion, up-rated HID 6000k headlights, clear glass side repeaters. gold plated rear badges. LSD, Greddy fmic with Greddy alloy top hose APEXI AIR INTAKE HKS CUT CONTROLER GREDDY TURBO CONTROLER -TIMER, greedy rad cap, greedy oil cap UPRATED oil pump Walbro fuel pump, APR Big end / mains/ head studs UPRATED Crank pulley UK spec cams Polished inlet\throttle body\Cam Covers and turbo hoses UPRATED Water pump Decat (removable/replaced for normal road use) Restrictor ring, EGLOW White dials with changeable lighting(set to blue at the mo'), Chrome Surrounds on dials, heater etc , Crome heater Knobs, silver dash, Blue LED dash light Conversion, Veilside Gear leaver, MOMO RACE Stearingwheel, MOMO Handbrake cover & Gaitor PIONEER DVD/SAT Nav touch screen entertainment unit, single din with pop out screen, Ipod lead in to centre glovebox. uprated speakers all round, small sub to replace factory unit in boot (kenwood i believe but will check). BITS TO NOTE as i want to be as honest as poss! Front bumper needs a crack repaired and resprayed, wheels need a referb' & due to brake lines and wheels on and off probably needs tracking and balancing(probably best done after wheel refurb'). Dependent on price these could be sorted by me or sold as is (price will be altered to suit!) Was thinking of Price around 8K ish, don't really have a clue on the resale vale of a mod'ed car but i must have done at least 15k + on mods and service etc (not included to initial purchase) but i know that is not how it works. but having a fresh ish engine and newly refurbed tubbies must help.. mustn't it????? will sell with all bits, so orig stearing wheel, CAT some parts ive gathered over the years (spare set of turbos) never used but got from lee P a few years back so can assume they were in good nic' when last used.. old spare set of headlights (jap plastic ones.. ideal for a refurb or a project...) Any help would be great thanks Ian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thetrashcanman Posted July 1, 2013 Share Posted July 1, 2013 I would say 8k would be about right, maybe put it up for that of a little bit more and see what offers you get Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chazuk Posted July 1, 2013 Share Posted July 1, 2013 Nice car , it would break for good money Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob_Mitchell Posted July 1, 2013 Share Posted July 1, 2013 It would break for better money agree'd but worth £7k all day long Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abtin90 Posted July 1, 2013 Share Posted July 1, 2013 It's a great looking car, if it was mine I'd put it up for at least £8k. I wouldn't take less if I were you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately there's no way it would go for 8k IMHO, put it up for that by all means but I've seen plenty of fully fledged J spec TT 6's go for that sort of money Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Graham1984 Posted July 1, 2013 Share Posted July 1, 2013 What a great transformation NA auto to TT6speed.... fair play that man Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IDO Posted July 2, 2013 Author Share Posted July 2, 2013 Cheers for your comments and thoughts guys.. looks like my pricing was in the right area! just wanted others views as it so hard to put a realistic value on a car that i value at much more for different reasons not only £'s spent etc.. Didn't want to waste mine or others time with silly prices as unfortunately the supra does have to go... thanks All Going to aim to get a Ad up By/at the weekend with some new pics.. Any further comments or selling advice more than welcome! or anyone interested drop me a PM. Graham1984: thanks, plan was N/a then save for a TT (as in different car).. but grew attached to the bugger and the transformation began! Ps to all, yeah i did think it would bring more if it was a "breaker" but A) i cant bring myself to do it... B) I don't have the know-how or the time to do it..
