Whitesupraboy2 Posted July 7, 2007 Share Posted July 7, 2007 say your a member of the club to sky and you get a discount If you go in a TT you'll want one of them. The NA is a great car and as fast as a honda civic typre R. The TT is another animal, you'll find youself wanting more power and for about a £1000 can be taken from 280BHP on the import to around 370 - 400BHP and still be a daily driver, just like mine Insurance for you wont be too bad I would of thought im 23 with 3 yrs no claims all mods declared and im paying £1k. so at your age it will be nice and cheap...wish i was old Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whitesupraboy2 Posted July 7, 2007 Share Posted July 7, 2007 What I suggest is you go in a NA, then a TT. Youll then be saying i want a manual, must be manual. You go in an auto and are plesently surprised Then go in a BPU car ( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

turbonut Posted July 9, 2007 Share Posted July 9, 2007 Hi Pete If your used to a bike, you'll be wanting a bit of grunt I have an N/A and luv it but would ideally have had a TT except milage and initial cost ruled it out A TT would be your best bet. Then theres the single turbo conversions.... I've been passenger in Maz's (MK47) supe and its got some serious speed, sounds lush and being a BPU'd TT, you'd climb out grinning from ear to ear after, guaranteed!! Hope you get the Supra your looking for mate, lots of well looked after examples on our for sale section, lots of advice here too, have a browse Linda x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tbourner Posted July 11, 2007 Share Posted July 11, 2007 Fraid not, got a TKD grading that weekend . I'm on the lookout for a CBR600 actually (when I've done my test!!), yes I'm going for a power ranger bike! Fundamentals of BPU are here: http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?t=94705 It's well worth it!! Shaun said you were going to look at a black one? If it's not a member on here then post up the details and we'll all scrutinise and find fault for you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
