marbleapple Posted July 12, 2017 Share Posted July 12, 2017 Having owned and therefore been a member of several "classic" single variety car forums I have watched a few die a slow death with very very little activity, I stopped using many of them other than for historic tech info, I have not felt the same way about this forum however, it is always responsive, has some really interesting and engaging members, has always been well run and organised and it is at times hilarious, yes it is much less active than it was but still a good forum and even as a none MKIV owner I will stay around for as long as the club exists This.... This said, there are a lot of old members who posted a lot (their own cliche) which are now GtR owners and have moved to that site. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really? How do you go from a Supra to a GT-R? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marbleapple Posted July 12, 2017 Share Posted July 12, 2017 Really? How do you go from a Supra to a GT-R? Are you serious? I can't tell if you are or not. Most of the high power guys have moved to the new GTR and thus moved forum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex_GT Posted July 12, 2017 Share Posted July 12, 2017 I was serious in the sense that the GT-R is a car that can only be afforded by the upper class. I own a Supra because it is affordable for the lower class, the GT-R is made for a completely different demographic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Havard Posted July 12, 2017 Share Posted July 12, 2017 Nice hair Thanks, I just had it polished..!! But what if we don't want you back ? I don't think that is a realistic question. Squeezing me and telling me you missed me at Wroxall was a bit much, but I understand..!! H. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

supra_jms Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 Think what you have to remember is A) every year a new generation due to insurance or age can buy supras and with that inexperience often comes crashes. B) they are old cars and a lot are rusting becoming unrepairable/scrapped. These two factors mean every year fewer supras exist so fewer members sadly.

Scooter Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 That has always been going on to some degree, the extra factor now in my opinion is the low import numbers to replace them, just less over time to export to us even if the demand was there but now they are very expensive relative to what the Uk market has had to pay in the past so IMO demand is low here too.

I think it's still cheaper compared to several years ago. I got my NA manual for £6K and Suprasteveo got his NA aero for £9K 2 years prior. Current prices are still cheaper for a complete car. Parts however have sky rocketed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wez Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 Much quieter these days, a by-product of the age of the car and numbers on the road. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
