jcbt Posted August 29, 2016 Share Posted August 29, 2016 Cheers! I'm from canvey, how about u?Β Just outside Romford but there are a few other Essex members down your way. If your interested and you want to view some Supra's why not come along to our monthly Bluewater meet this Friday at 7 .30pm in the house of Fraser car park Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homer Posted August 30, 2016 Share Posted August 30, 2016 If your interested and you want to view some Supra's why not come along to our monthly Bluewater meet this Friday at 7 .30pm in the house of Fraser car parkΒ This. The best way to get to see a few cars and get an idea of what to look for and maybe get to meet some locals who know their way around a Supra. Absolutely invaluable especially as the cars are getting older. Welcome to the club Β I bought my other half a 2011 E90 320d last year, it's a great car. It's pretty close to my NA 5spd in terms of straight line drive, corners are another matter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alfie Posted August 30, 2016 Author Share Posted August 30, 2016 Yeah I'm looking forward to getting a supra I haven't a clue what would be best to get all I know so far is 6 speed manual single terbs is powerrrrr And it's got to be black mint condition inside and out . Guessing 17-20k is about the right price ? I met someone at London tunnel run at the weekend told me to join here he said don't need to pay that much for a decent 6 speed manual ?? Cheers guy hope u see lots of supra's don't be shy to invite me to meets Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Β So while you are waiting for a specific colour/model combo to come along, the asking price could go up, up and up.Β You could consider looking for alternative colours also - this widens your options and your budget should be enough to find a good example.Β Good luck!

Alfie Posted September 2, 2016 Author Share Posted September 2, 2016 Yes I've been looking on here and eBay everyday , finding a lot of 5 speeds and autos , see some nice one with flappy padle but I just want a straight forward 6 speed manual turbo . Might give jm imports a try ? I still need to sell my car and save up abit of money so just browsing until I find my dream , and I need to buy subscription on this forum Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alfie Posted September 2, 2016 Author Share Posted September 2, 2016 https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/282153782745 Looks like a nice buy but can it be converted into the ultimate supra, plus I'd rather have black (without changing myself) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anh Posted September 2, 2016 Share Posted September 2, 2016 I personally wouldn't buy it just to convert it to a manual car. A conversion including cost of a working V160/161 manual box is Β£4-6k, and you run the risk of mechanical failure due to the 2nd hand box or human error during the conversion.Β And then it won't be treated by the insurance underwriters as factory 6 speed so you might have issues insuring it - and thus resale value might be be affected.Β It's a very nice auto though.
