JamieP Posted September 16, 2013 Share Posted September 16, 2013 Looks great on the the new wheels. With regards to the price, I'd say the man above is about right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheTurtleshead Posted September 16, 2013 Author Share Posted September 16, 2013 Looks great on the the new wheels. With regards to the price, I'd say the man above is about right. with the wheels? maybe 14k? without and with the conversion maybe 12k or something around that perhaps. But selling supras is difficult at the moment, so might be less, either way it is an awesome car dude, so don't you dare sell it I was thinking about 14… Don't worry, I'm not thinking of selling at all! I was just curious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamesy Posted September 16, 2013 Share Posted September 16, 2013 What do you think of the one in the link dude? I just don't think it suited green…. Maybe colour coded but thats a pita…! Stone chips etc.. http://www.ebay.com/itm/93-98-TOYOTA-SUPRA-JDM-TR-D-STYLE-FRONT-BUMPER-LIP-SPOILER-POLY-URETHANE-BLACK-/130737580300?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&fits=Model%3ASupra&hash=item1e7091290c&vxp=mtr Yeah thats nice as well mate. Would have to be colour coded. Like the one in the pic Jazz posted , i just think it finishes off the front BUT either way its a stunner....just like your undergarments!

TheTurtleshead Posted September 20, 2013 Author Share Posted September 20, 2013 (edited) Edit: Decided I just couldn't be asked with getting dirty and crawling around on the floor struggling with engine mounts today… So instead I decided to give it a proper detail.. -2 Bucket wash with Meguiars Gold Class wash… There was nothing on the paint at all once I'd cleaned all the dirt off.. felt 'grippy' v.strange! -Polished all over with Megs Ultimate compound…worked it quite hard by hand and it really brought the shine back, got rid of some slight oxidation on the rear quarters as well. -3x Coats of Dodo Juice Purple Haze… Looks stunning and buttery smooth! I love this wax.. good results and easy to work with/remove. -Wheels polished then 2x coats of Poorboys sealant applied…. Pics as I know you guys love 'em… it looks ace! I need a better camera as the colour always looks darker on camera.. If it's nice tomorrow I'll try to borrow one from somewhere and get some good snaps.

SupraDan24 Posted September 22, 2013 Share Posted September 22, 2013 If your paint feels "grippy" after you've washed it then give it a clay, that'll get rid of that. I did mine last week as mine was the same, it was smooth as glass after about 2 hours of claying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did mine last week as mine was the same, it was smooth as glass after about 2 hours of claying. I've bought two clay kits now.. both times I have done one panel and got bored. I'm sure a good compounding removes anything that's stuck to the paint. Might have to pay someone to clay it for me at some point if it's worth it, I haven't the patience!

TheTurtleshead Posted September 26, 2013 Author Share Posted September 26, 2013 Nice wheels! What specs are they mate!? Cheers Dude! 10.5 fronts and 11.5 rears mate. No Idea on the offsets.. they're CCW's Supra Fitment.. but the rears don't need a 10mm spacer.. so -10 more offset than usual. 18's front and rear. Don't like the look of the staggered setup really... for the power I want traction will be acceptable! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
