Pete Posted January 8, 2007 Share Posted January 8, 2007 My angel : Stop reading this thread. You've already got one. Stop it. You don't one with lower miles and newer. No you don't... My devil : I doo... No - it's wrong. Stop looking at the pictures, it's the 5th time today...yes it is shiny, but you want a black one. ...but this one has leather Recaros and I've never seen those.... you can buy some seats for yours. ..yes but they won't be from Toyota... so what you've got a nice car... It's a manual... you don't want a manual you sit in traffic all the time... but it would be more fun on spirited drives... you've got the kit car for that! Everybody says it's nice... everybody says yours is nice.. but I want it.. you can't have it... it's 250 miles away from you... I'll get the train.. how are you going to sell yours? I don't care! So where you getting the money from? I'll borrow it out of the business.... you've got to pay it back you know... shan't Grow up and enjoy what you've got. It's probably been in accident ..who says? It looks nice and I could HPI check. There's no harm in looking is there? Pictures lie. Besides, it'll be sold by the time you pick up the phone. Not if I ring tomorrow. It's hassle selling your car.. Not really and I will keep this one forever and ever...honest. You said that the last three times, go to bed and sleep ok Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hogmaw Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 OMG Pete my reasoning has been the same... could I wangle it where I grab some cash out of the business to buy it, swap all my mods from current car to new car, sell current car etc etc I just hope the lucky owner, whoever it may be, joins this forum Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

terawua Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 Chris, your car is perfect? why sell? new project, different car? or do you want the money to invest in a more 'mature' mode of transport like a lambo (I think you mentioned that before...) I mean yours is one of the best in the club.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRD3000GT Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 Just its time for a change.. Ive had the supra for a long time and im in need of a something different, What ever I get will be special but im not going to just let the supra go to anyone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terawua Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 That sounds like Ferrari and the sale of their Enzo.. are you going to 'invite buyers' then? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRD3000GT Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 That sounds like Ferrari and the sale of their Enzo.. are you going to 'invite buyers' then? haha, Im a realist and if the right money is offered i will let her go but Im not just going to bow out for a silly amount of cash. Also I want the car to go to someone who is going to able to look after it and not just buying it because he thinks it looks cool, I guess I just feel like I dont want all the hard work to be for nothing and want my supra to go to someone who will love it to death as I do / did.

To have something like your car would be ace, but I think I would prefer to do it myself, just like you did, was even toying with the idea of getting a 2002n/a and doing a turbo conversion just so I could have a 02 or 52 plate... Just like my computers, I spec and build them myself then I knwo their ins and outs.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRD3000GT Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 Well to be honest the headaches you go through getting a car to the stage mine is at Id prefer to just buy one outright. At least who ever buys it will know its tried and tested and its still running sweet as a nut You could even use it as a base car because if you wanted to change anything you know you could sell the current parts for decent money.

terawua Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 well thats true about having it ready done, certinaly the cheaper way to do it, ans swapping out the parts is a definite option. Surely there would be some guilt about undoing what someone has already done unless it was badly done or just bad(tastily) done Furthermore I would think it would be easier to take advantage of the knowledge that has filtered through about tuning the VVTi now. I cant decide whether I would want massive BHP with lag or a much more driveable setup like Terry's... horses for courses.... perhaps a mid/largish turbo with a stroker kit to make it spool better, hmm serious money....

As far as im concerned its a very driveable car and I use it around town Oh I am not saying your car would be all laggy - thats the whole point of having it well tuned, which I know you didnt scrimp on. As for the ride, tempted, just let me get a change of underwear..[sHOCK][/sHOCK] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
