After what seems like ages of saving and waiting finally found and bought Supra Manual TT :D Having driven my bros integra i didn't think it'd be that much faster. How wrong was I ;) the acceleration is awesome.

 

I wondered if anyone knows what spoiler it is, or just some cheap universal tat?

What has everyone with imports done about the stereo not having a faceoff? I can see a break-in waiting to happen with the goodies on display?

Congrats on the new car mate, haven't seen many white ones, looks like a tidy example.

 

How could you possibly think a 1800 integra would keep up with a 3ltr TT Supra? :D

 

Your spoiler does look like a universal item, Whats been done with the original spoiler holes,? have they been filled or has it just got plastic gromits in the boot where the bolts used to be?

 

If its got gromits, get the original spoiler back on there mate, or even better, get one of the TRD replica ones

Good luck with the new car, and the best advice I can give you, is take it easy, these cars bite when provoked, epecially in the wet.

 

I think a Jeremy Clarkson statement fits the supra quite well, "its like owning a bear, its all well and good, until one day, it bites your head off".

Hello and welcome :)

 

Very nice Supra. If you like the spoiler, leave it on...if you dont, put another one on. Theres been a few informative threads over the last few days about spoilers:blink:

 

BTW...Im amazed at how small it looks next to the Integra

Tat it is then...:p Didn't like it at first but it's growing on me. Other than that the car is completely stock. That won't be for long though :rolleyes:

 

Integrea hits 60 in just over 6 seconds and thats stock. Not a huge difference until the higher speeds.

 

Never going to drive the car in the wet if i can avoid it, drive my beasty clio instead.

your supra will do 0-60 in 4.9 mate that a big difference and i believe the dc2 does 0-60 in 6.4, supra does 0-100 in 11.8 whereas the teg does it in about 16-17 seconds teg top speed 140ish mph, supra deresricted will do 176mph standard and thats not bouncing off its rev limter as around and some say 200mph is achiveable depending on tyre sizes etc on stock rev limit with the right power :cool: welcome aboard looks nice

Hi, car looks v. tidy & loving the wheels. So is the other car a Williams?

 

Ah stock wheels do they get any better?

 

Williams i wish, my speedy clio is the banger i've been driving for a year to afford the supra. The performance is blistering something like 0 - 60 in 14.6, top speed of 96mph down hill with a tail wind.

 

I didn't notice much difference when i got behind the wheel of the supra :D

Nice looking supra you have there

i was actually going to look at this one when it was for sale,

 

The guy didn't know what he had, i'm pretty sure he priced it as an auto. He took a beating on the price too, between my bro checking it out over a month ago and me buying it he let slip that he hadn't had anyone look at it.

 

The alloys, wing, colour put me off... but the price was just too tempting. Just hope the engine is in as good a condition as i think - there is no smoke out of the exhaust when i start up which i found suprising :shock:

 

Will get it serviced as soon as i can find a good specialist garage.

 

I have a stock spoiler in white for sale, if you are interested.

 

Cheers mate but i'll leave it till i get a veilside or TRD.
