parm Posted June 27, 2016 Share Posted June 27, 2016 Hi all, Really excited just purchased a 1999 supra vvti from Jurgen, completely stock bar exhaust and turbo timer. Can't wait to get modifying but should be a really good base car. Thanks to Jurgen and Aarin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

parm Posted June 27, 2016 Author Share Posted June 27, 2016 Well don't just talk about it, get some pictures up Out working at the mo but here's a pic, 6 speed manual going to need lots and lots of advice on how to proceed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
parm Posted June 27, 2016 Author Share Posted June 27, 2016 I'm going to have the brakes done ASAP hopefully by Jurgen and perhaps sort the suspension a little for some fastish track runs but don't want it to be so firm I dislocate my hip going down the road. Any advice on brake setup would be awesome Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frank Bullitt Posted June 27, 2016 Share Posted June 27, 2016 (edited) She looks nice, best colour too The larger OEM 4 pot fronts and 2 pot rears with some Chris Wilson pads and Toyota discs will do just fine. Add some Goodridge braided brake lines into the mix and you will be good to go. Suspension wise again contact Chris Wilson he will make you a set for the car. E2A I don't think the larger OEM brakes will fit with the 16" wheels. Edited June 27, 2016 by Frank Bullitt (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers for that, yep the 16" are too small to handle the new brakes so may have to hold fire in case the wife chops off something important !!

Westy Posted June 28, 2016 Share Posted June 28, 2016 Welcome. Nice car! If the OEM 16s are staggered I'd be interested in buying them from you. (8" front 9" rear) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
parm Posted June 28, 2016 Author Share Posted June 28, 2016 Welcome. Nice car! If the OEM 16s are staggered I'd be interested in buying them from you. (8" front 9" rear) Hi Westy, no problem they maybe coming off straight away at Jurgens place. Waiting to get some Alurad alloys & coilovers priced up. I'll do the brakes a few weeks after still undecided between Brembo/AP and wilwood. Thanks buddy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swampy442 Posted June 28, 2016 Share Posted June 28, 2016 The best advice would be leave it 100% stock and watch the money pile up Nice looking car though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
parm Posted June 29, 2016 Author Share Posted June 29, 2016 Ok so I wasn't planning on to many mods straight away but unfortunately the force is strong, so the car is a stock 6 speed twin turbo but I've had Jurgens team do the below prior to collection HKS coil overs Rolled wheel arches Ray's style Grid concave alloys 9.5 front 10.5 back New glass headlights K sport brakes all round HKS super flow exhaust (might skip this for now as it has an unknown exhaust) As soon as I've got it going to head over to Lee at SRD and the plan is a little bit of an unknown but as an uneducated Supra tuner id like to go: Single big turbo Forged engine Inter cooler Syvecs Big injectors Rebuild the gearbox Check/change the lsd (if it has one ??) Oil cooler Battery relocation And truthfully whatever else Lee says it needs to stop it going bang!!! Can't wait !! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hogmaw Posted June 29, 2016 Share Posted June 29, 2016 Superb car, the best colour and spec IMO, very very hard to come by, I'd leave it like that but that's just me. What were you driving before? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What were you driving before? Thanks Hogmaw, I've been a little spoilt and always bought new but sick and tired of losing my shirt every time I got bored and the warranty panic. So been throught the below in the last 4-5 years Rs6 c7 FL M6GC 997.2 Turbo M5 F10 X5 M50d A45 amg To be honest all of these were fast but I was never flying by the seat of my pants scared, so this time I decided not to go for the MY17 gtr and build my own supra just the way I want it. So any advice you can give me would be awesome, the last car I modified myself at home was a corrado vr6 and by the time I finished it it was terrible to drive and if you parked it too close to a radio mast the immobiliser would kick in and you had to push it !!!! Thanks for the warm welcome I'll post some pics when it lands Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
