binfieldx Posted April 8, 2015 Share Posted April 8, 2015 (edited) Hi, Thought I'd introduce myself. My names Tom and I live in Surrey (London). I currently drive a Toyota MR2 UK N/A but I recently purchased a 1995 Supra RZ TT 6sp from Japan which arrives 17th April, very excited about it! I plan to take it to Lee at SRD for a full health check once it arrives and then will be attending any meets you guys arrange!

Supra2jze Posted April 8, 2015 Share Posted April 8, 2015 Welcome to the club Tom. Sounds like you've bought a good spec Supra. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
binfieldx Posted April 8, 2015 Author Share Posted April 8, 2015 Haha, funny you say that I've been looking around in japan for around 6 months and finally purchased a car on February 5th of this year. It's definitely not to many members tastes but I love it and I'm hoping it's sound when it lands. There's a lot I plan to change on it but I'm happy with it (so far, unless it's wafty when it arrives, never know with importing...) I guess that's all that matters!

binfieldx Posted April 8, 2015 Author Share Posted April 8, 2015 Here is a pic of the rear, like i say theres many things i want to change (few tacky bits) (Hmm phone doesn't want to add the pic, i'll try once I get home.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShawnPreece Posted April 8, 2015 Share Posted April 8, 2015 Welcome what are you planning to change on it then? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
binfieldx Posted April 8, 2015 Author Share Posted April 8, 2015 I know its not to everyones tastes but basically its an orange veilside widebody with a few other modifications such as cusco braces, kakimoto exhaust, sard gauges, hks bov etc. The main things i want to change are the mirrors, spoiler and front bumper at the moment. Ive got big plans for it and I believe its a really good base to start on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
binfieldx Posted April 8, 2015 Author Share Posted April 8, 2015 attached is a low down side profile pic to show its paint/build quality. I definitely dont want the chargespeed spoiler and plan to change it back to OEM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fitz Posted April 8, 2015 Share Posted April 8, 2015 Brave man, Blended Veilside Skirts and wide Arches, Chargespeed rear wing and in an Orange colour. Nice wheels - Welcome to the club matey!

Virus Posted April 8, 2015 Share Posted April 8, 2015 pics please Looks like a mint car bro, welcome to the club Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
binfieldx Posted April 8, 2015 Author Share Posted April 8, 2015 I really dont like the veilside front bumper, im planning to change it to something else but what at the moment is the question. Im not a fan of veilside at all but for some reason i fell in love with this marmite supra. I imagine i'll end up with a frankenstein of kits together but something that works, i think it will really be trial and error. I appreciate alot of you will hate the car for the time being[GRIN] im not sure the rear bumper is veilside. I think its also chargespeed with something blended in maybe you guys could shed some light on it. The spoiler is going for an oem spoiler as will the ganador wing mirrors, wheels are definitely staying! living life on the edge a little with this car thats for sure!

nihontoman Posted April 9, 2015 Share Posted April 9, 2015 You think your rear wing looks ugly and not to taste to the members here? Hah, try looking at mine that is also coming to me fr Japan... It has a veilside rear wing, bomex front bumper and side skirts are tje same as yours (oem?). When I posted the pics, 9 out of 10 said that the wngs gotta go . Yours is very timid in comparison and honestly, I like it Congrats on a wild new supra. Have fun with it. Judging from the pics, the car looks well maintained Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
binfieldx Posted April 9, 2015 Author Share Posted April 9, 2015 (edited) Thanks man! side skirts are veilside and blended into an aftermarket (not sure what) wide arch kit. Post some of your pics! *Edit I just viewed your other thread with the pics in, that single turbo! I like it!

Zeiretto Posted April 9, 2015 Share Posted April 9, 2015 You really shouldn't care what people think though, it's your car. The bodywork seems top notch, nothing to be ashamed of that's for sure. The wheels are stunning too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
binfieldx Posted April 9, 2015 Author Share Posted April 9, 2015 Thanks man, that's another thing that initially attracted me to the car it looks like it's been really well looked after. I'm not sure if anyone on here has heard of them, there is a tuner/modifying company very well known in japan called 'N-Style' I believe this was one of their previous project cars sold off for a different supra.

Post some of your pics! *Edit I just viewed your other thread with the pics in, that single turbo! I like it! Hmm, I thought these were OEM. oh well... as for the Single turbo, yeah. I was dead set on getting a good supra with good auction grade, but When I saw a single turbo already in it, I just had to have it The only thing I would change in mine, is add a diffuser like yours Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
binfieldx Posted April 9, 2015 Author Share Posted April 9, 2015 A few people have commented on the diffuser, it's the chargespeed rear bumper and it has the diffuser part built in. I think the rear is just sex Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nihontoman Posted April 9, 2015 Share Posted April 9, 2015 I think so too. Even the wing looks good and is a good addition to the whole aero package I think... Not sure if the standard will look better to be honest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nihontoman Posted April 13, 2015 Share Posted April 13, 2015 I think I found your car on the auction history: http://auc.carauction.ge/aj_3-szQk9HsssguYVK.htm And now that I look at it, the rear wing is indeed huge! but black on orange goes well together Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ellis Posted April 13, 2015 Share Posted April 13, 2015 That is the biggest wing ever. There's a 747 flying erratically somewhere without that! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mplavery Posted April 13, 2015 Share Posted April 13, 2015 Another Surrey member Nothing wrong with blended kits mate, if done right they last, Mine still perfect after 4 years Love the car and i have always been a fan of the VS kits, mainly the early version... Nice to see a Orange Supra, we need to make a Supra Skittles pic done lol You have any better pics of the whole car Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
binfieldx Posted April 13, 2015 Author Share Posted April 13, 2015 I have the docking photos where it was raining and the car was dirty as hell so no point uploading those as it looks horrendous! All the high quality pics I have are close-ups (ish), the only other full body ones I have are from the auctions. It's here in a few days anyway so I can take plenty then! I haven't seen you around surrey before? I'm sure I would have noticed your car Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
