jsnlvxr Posted December 12, 2013 Share Posted December 12, 2013 So after 3 years of wanting a supra I finally put a deposit down on one. She a bit of a rough diamond with standard alloys, and a pretty dodgy looking front bumper. But its a aerotop which is what ive been after. It will over time be gettiing a tt lump and eventually a 6 speed. Loads of history with the car and fresh service and mot. Roll on picking it up and starting a project!! Here she is as it stands!!

jsnlvxr Posted December 12, 2013 Author Share Posted December 12, 2013 Thanks guys. It is a very odd bumper. Going to be replaced with a standard job with a lip so a bit mote eom look. I think there standard 16s. Tiny looking wheels. Replacing these for somthing a bit bigger and better looking. Its done 72k miles and just totaly standard engine and chassis.

It might be an original Blitz bumper as they use to be popular in Japan, if it is you may be able to sell it on or swap it for a stock bumper.

mplavery Posted December 12, 2013 Share Posted December 12, 2013 Nice Supra buddy Put the OEM bumper and skirts back on.. Cant beat stock look Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jsnlvxr Posted December 12, 2013 Author Share Posted December 12, 2013 I agree about the stock look. Not a fan of the bumper so a swap or ssle would be ideal Like wise with skirts! If they come off in one peice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jsnlvxr Posted December 12, 2013 Author Share Posted December 12, 2013 What size wheel will fit on there without arch work?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Bailey Posted December 12, 2013 Share Posted December 12, 2013 (edited) What size wheel will fit on there without arch work?? Depends on offset etc. For reference my dads are Fronts: 8.5J 245/35/19 Rears: 9.5J 275/30/19 with a +40 offset all round.

Hammer Posted December 12, 2013 Share Posted December 12, 2013 Very nice mate. OEM 17's lovely and look in good condition. Keep them, even if you get different ones for now. I pretty much guarantee before long once owning it you will want them back on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris tyre size is no good as a width, real wheel people want actual width Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamesy Posted December 13, 2013 Share Posted December 13, 2013 Nice car. To be on the safe size for wheels you could go for a 19" x 8.5" front wheel with a 35 offset 19" x 9.5" rear wheel with a 35 offeet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jsnlvxr Posted December 13, 2013 Author Share Posted December 13, 2013 Thanks mate. Its a good base I hope! The ones im looking at are 19 et35 5x114 8.5 and 9.5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
