Tsia Posted September 27, 2016 Share Posted September 27, 2016 (edited) Hi all, No longer interested in owning a Supra so wanted to gauge how much it's worth. Engine Spec: Engine recently rebuilt with 86.5mm pistons (MK Autos, Blackburn - reputable engine builder) Head rebuilt at same time Borg Warner S362 turbo Whifbitz twin wastegate manifold Twin 40mm Turbosmart wastegates (with screamer pipes) Turbosmart BOV Mishimoto intercooler with custom pipework Mishimoto rad SARD 720cc Injectors Link G4 Storm ECU (Needs remap - explained below) A340E Automatic box with twin coolers UK brakes Bad points: Car needs a remap. Doesn't idle very well and runs very rich according to the guys at my local dyno. Sideskirt (passenger side) is cracked Rota GTR wheels could do with a refurb Paint was bubbling around windscreen so this has been sanded back and smoothed, but needs painting. (caused by a chip back to bare paintwork when the windscreen was replaced quite some time ago. All rust has been removed) Interior carpet is a bit tatty Front bumper is pretty stonechipped Few of the usual 'tesco dents' in the doors Edited September 27, 2016 by Tsia (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
and1c Posted September 27, 2016 Share Posted September 27, 2016 Did you not get a remap after having the engine rebuilt? Who mapped the Link originally mate? It would probably sell for significantly more than the cost of a remap if it was running 100%. tricky one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was road mapped originally, but it hasn't held up very well. Wasn't mapped by a trader on here so I won't name names. The complete and utter destruction of my bank account is why I'm finally throwing the towel in Edited September 27, 2016 by Tsia (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sidewaysdan Posted September 27, 2016 Share Posted September 27, 2016 WHAT!!!! You've not long had the rebuild done. Seen this in the flesh really nice car would be awesome with a proper map. Good luck with the sale mate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good luck with the sale mate Cheers, mostly this thread is to gauge what I want to do with it, but its been in a non driveable state for too much of its life. On one hand, it's 'nearly' there - but on the other, I have to draw a line somewhere and say enough is enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tsia Posted September 27, 2016 Author Share Posted September 27, 2016 Definitely get it remapped. No can do I'm afraid. If I'm selling, I'm selling as-is. Just trying to find a guide price - though I'm aware it'll be much less than it would be mapped. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sidewaysdan Posted September 27, 2016 Share Posted September 27, 2016 Do you have a ruff price you would be happy to sell at. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tsia Posted September 27, 2016 Author Share Posted September 27, 2016 Do you have a ruff price you would be happy to sell at. Clueless to be honest. I've seen so many threads recently for single supras that it's really hard to gauge a price for it in it's current condition. If the 'judged' amount is too low for comfort, i'd probably store it up for a while and just come back to it in a few months/years - even though that's not the most sensible option. Just trying to weigh up the decision really Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JasonR24 Posted September 27, 2016 Share Posted September 27, 2016 I know how you feel, it's hard when you lose the love. Hope you figure out what you want to do. I'm also weighing up options Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm also weighing up options Bit of an opportunity has come up, so it may be worth me keeping it yet. Still, would be useful to know its worth!

charlton Posted September 27, 2016 Share Posted September 27, 2016 Don't suppose you'd break it for parts? Genuine 1A1, original engine and auto gearbox. You CAN NOT break a genuine MSB Supra! If the 'judged' amount is too low for comfort, i'd probably store it up for a while and just come back to it in a few months/years If you can afford to store it for a few years why not do that? You have an original rare colour Supra that should appreciate more in time than other colours Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swampy442 Posted September 27, 2016 Share Posted September 27, 2016 Theres a sorted single auto on here now I think for 12k? Here or the Facebook group. Given the issues maybe 10? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tsia Posted September 27, 2016 Author Share Posted September 27, 2016 Theres a sorted single auto on here now I think for 12k? Here or the Facebook group. Given the issues maybe 10? That sounds about fair - thanks. As I've said above bit of an opportunity has reared its head regarding the map, so I'll investigate that avenue first of all before making a decision.
