Evening all

 

Well after actually purchasing the Supra a couple of weeks back, it's been an exciting wait whilst Lee and the guys at SRD worked their magic once again with the car ready for my collection yesterday day (you know the day we had monsoon weather across the UK!!) I had a tame drive back and stayed off the boost given the 150mile slog back in a constant downpour, but boy did it feel good. Thankfully it was dry today so I whacked the boost up to 1.5bar and went for a play. Holy Moses I am in love......:) The car is EPIC.

 

The car was already in fantastic condition but the suspension was a little tired and it certainly needed a bit of TLC here and there. SRD undertook the following to get it 100% right :)

 

  • New HKS HyperMax IV Suspension
  • Brand New OEM Fuel and Brake Lines
  • New Toyota Timing Pulley, Toyota Belt Idler and Gates Kevlar Racing Belt
  • New PHR Idler Pulley
  • New Walbro 485 Pump & Fuel Setup
  • DEI T4 Titanium Heat Shield Turbo Blanket & DEI Titanium Exhaust Wrap for Downpipe
  • New SRD Turbo Oil Feed and SRD Turbo water line kit
  • Full Service with Brake, Oil, Fuel Filter and Fluid changes

The car is an absolute beast and drives flawlessly. This is my first experience with a Single Supra (had two TT's previously) and for me it really is a dream come true. I'm over the moon with the car and hopefully I'll keep this one for the many years to come. I fully intend on driving it properly :D The car makes 560HP@ 1.5 bar ;)
