sarjo Posted February 26, 2006 Share Posted February 26, 2006 http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=4616227395&rd=1&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWA%3AIT&rd=1 This car used to belong to Leon - remember him?! I have spoken to him today after seeing this on ebay. Sounds a nice motor and although the bidding is going well, its not really anywhere near what he's after. I'd be grateful if you guys could spare a few minutes to look at this and suggest prices that you think are appropriate. Cheers in advance.

Tom Posted February 26, 2006 Share Posted February 26, 2006 I did not know that used to be Leons!!!! I have a few pics on my other pc of this one!, I'll post up in a bit, no idea what it would be worth though? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sarjo Posted February 26, 2006 Author Share Posted February 26, 2006 I did not know that used to be Leons!!!! So I'm reliably informed. It used to be red up until a year and a half / two years ago? Has been covered in a few mags in its time as well? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom Posted February 26, 2006 Share Posted February 26, 2006 Thanks for the pics Tom - the red underside of the bonnet (Pic 1) does nothing for me though!!! Hmmmm I'm guessing it's probably sorted now, this was quite a while ago, maybe 2 years or so, I took this when I didn't even have my supe so must about then.

sarjo Posted February 26, 2006 Author Share Posted February 26, 2006 Tom - those pics must have been taken a while back. That was before the air intake in the headlight was fitted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sarjo Posted February 26, 2006 Author Share Posted February 26, 2006 In the current climate of second hand supra car sales - what price are we looking at for this then - any ideas guys? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dangerous brain Posted February 26, 2006 Share Posted February 26, 2006 I've seen that car at the massive southampton meet we had the same day as the launch of the new QE2. I was in my red N/A which I sold nearly 2 years ago, it was a show stealer back then in that colour. Can't beleive the price its at though utter madness the market at the mo.

toyotasuprauk Posted February 26, 2006 Share Posted February 26, 2006 I was at that meet too, so much traffic! Like DB said that car really was a show stealer at that meet. It really did look great back then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sarjo Posted February 26, 2006 Author Share Posted February 26, 2006 Car wont sell for that price. He wants - quite rightly too - a lot more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toyotasuprauk Posted February 26, 2006 Share Posted February 26, 2006 Can't remember but about 2 years ago maybe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CJ Posted March 6, 2006 Share Posted March 6, 2006 Just ressurecting this. Does anyone know of Japspeed? Apparently they did the work on this car. What sort of a rep do they have? Also, has anyone seen this car lately or know anything about it or Leon? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jazz1 Posted March 6, 2006 Share Posted March 6, 2006 i dont think its worth that much look at jamie who bought that nice supra and its a bigger turbo etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homer Posted March 6, 2006 Share Posted March 6, 2006 Just ressurecting this. Does anyone know of Japspeed? Apparently they did the work on this car. What sort of a rep do they have? Also, has anyone seen this car lately or know anything about it or Leon? It was owned by a guy called Leon (not the JPS one!). Sarjo won the ebay auction and I beleive was picking it up today, there's a recetn thread on it somewhere. All I know is the car looked very nice and had a very high spec list, when I last spoke to Leon he said he knew bugger all about cars and his mechanic (who is always with him at the meets) is the guy in the know. Edit: Not much help am i? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suprachargedtt Posted March 7, 2006 Share Posted March 7, 2006 Does anyone know of Japspeed? What sort of a rep do they have? Well they went bust about 2-3 years ago if that helps? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BURT Posted March 7, 2006 Share Posted March 7, 2006 not sure about this, but says that it produces 800bhp... but there is no mention of a BL auto box or anything simular, the std auto would not be able to handle 800bhp... no matter how many coolers it had and would need a high stall too.

You are right burt, car is currently running at 420? at the wheels, apparantly it is has been modded to handle 800 should further mods ie. change of box be desired.
