Guest jif Posted February 13, 2007 Share Posted February 13, 2007 Hello Could someone advise me! Im looking to purchase a J spec supra and are torn between the TT and NA. I have a budget of approx 5k and wonder if its better to purchase a newer na than an older tt and then mod the na to increase the performace? Insurance is not a problem (old) Any advice or opinion welcome Many thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pig Posted February 13, 2007 Share Posted February 13, 2007 Modding the N/A to increase performance isnt really an option. If you were to get a TT it would prob be a right dog Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeyb10supra Posted February 13, 2007 Share Posted February 13, 2007 5K will get you a nice N/A I think you would be hard pushed to find a nice TT for that price Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted February 13, 2007 Share Posted February 13, 2007 Get out there a drive a few. You may be persuaded to save up a little bit more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Phillw454 Posted February 13, 2007 Share Posted February 13, 2007 my NA is sound and cost just over 5k a few weeks ago, great paint, perfect interior, alarm full mot and 6 months tax only 1 uk owner think youl get a crap TT for 5k, best off getting a NA or maybe a single turbo if you cant go over 5k? welcome:d Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nic Posted February 13, 2007 Share Posted February 13, 2007 think youl get a crap TT for 5k, best off getting a NA or maybe a single turbo if you cant go over 5k? There was never a standard single turbo JZA80 Supra, only NA or twin turbo. All single turboed Supras are modified NA's or TT's and are big money.

Nic Posted February 13, 2007 Share Posted February 13, 2007 Welcome to the club Jif Either buy an NA or save twice as much and buy a decent TT. Buying a cheap TT is likely to cost you a lot more in bills down the line. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest jif Posted February 13, 2007 Share Posted February 13, 2007 Thanks all, Looks like an na as i want one now. Am i right in thinking theres a second and a half in 0-60 time and a 10mph speed difference unmodded? Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Havard Posted February 13, 2007 Share Posted February 13, 2007 There are some decent TT auto's knocking about for 6 - 6.5K. Depends on what is your main reason for having this type of car. Do you just want to look good, go very fast or both!! You should be able to pick up a Facelift NA Auto for 5k or maybe a manual for a little more. What do you think of this one?? http://atsearch.autotrader.co.uk/www/cars_search.asp?searchform=&modelexact=1&lid=search_used_cars_full&photo=1&state=none&sort=3&hassearched=Y&make=TOYOTA&min_pr=3000&source=0&model=SUPRA&max_pr=4000&agerange=&mileage=&miles=1500&trim=&keywords=pratically&postcode=wn2+1qj&ukcarsearch_full.x=76&ukcarsearch_full.y=9 Looks like a bargain to me!!

Scooter Posted February 13, 2007 Share Posted February 13, 2007 tbh there is quite a big difference in performance between the NA and TT............. 'Looking' at Bungys car, it looks nice and you could easily get this car for £5000, ok you'd have to pay him £6000 (ish:d ) but you could sell a few of the bits (seats and exhaust or wheels etc) and come in at your budget..........
