ripped_fear Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 Amen, that should be top of everyones list. lots of us can get too caught up in the build there needs to be a balance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luxluc Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 On 25th of June, I will attend the next airport rolling race. I plan to break the 300 kph / 188 mph on the 1000m / 0.6 ml. In parallel, SRD will start building my VVTi head to the same spec as my current Stage 5 head. Lee has also my Hypertune intake plenum ready to be installed whilst the heads will be swapped. I want to get my 1000 bhp Supra as streetable as possible ; a 1000 bhp / 800+ ftlbs VVTi engine should be fun. Moving my current 813 ftlbs curve more to the left is the goal.

Wonga Spar Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 (edited) NA-T and possibly an R154 depending on my luck TT6's are just crazy money, it'd cost 12k on top of the value of mine to get into one and 12k appears to go a long way in NA-T terms.

and1c Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 Custom big fuel setup More boost and new map Drag wheels and slicks Get a decent benchmark at the drag strip Tweak and tune... Hopefully into the 10s . This would be a significant achievement for me considering it's not a shop built car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mc92 Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 I'd like to do an R154 conversion if I can afford it this year in preparation for eventual power increase. Other than that, smaller things like body and paint tidy up, refreshing/replacing tatty and rusted components, underbody seal, new wheels.

SupraAyf Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 I'm hoping to drive a Supra again this year. I've missed it lots. JP: I love bikes too but I'll be selling some of them as the toy collection needs to reduce in size. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kendo11 Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 Get it finished (finally) and get it on the road and reminding myself why I bought it in the first place. Done about 300 miles in 18 months. Plans and purchases are afoot so hopefully it'll be done before summer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SupraAyf Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 You should keep them Andrew, few years they will all go up, I bet most them gone up some already. What have you got again? You're right JP but I'm running out of space. We've just bought a new Motorhome so that's taking up A few useful meters on the drive. Bikes: ZX12R A1, Hayabusa K9, ZX10 B2, RSV-Carbon, GSXR11, TLR1000R, CBR9 (93 edition), Thunderace, Hayabusa RX (Gold), ST1300. The ZX12 and Busa RX will never leave me JP :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamieP Posted January 3, 2017 Author Share Posted January 3, 2017 GSXR11 is worth keeping also, I think that will be worth the most in years to come. The original badboy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
