SilverSoop Posted August 2, 2007 Share Posted August 2, 2007 Hi guys, i have finally decided what i am going to do with my supe. I have decided to get a tt conversion courtesy of jezzybabes early next year Its a very good price what you get really, a tt engine, 6 spped gearbox and all of the drivetrain components fitted for just £4000! I never really wanted to sell my n/a anyway and it is the better and cheaper option instead of buying a tt, i can have a tt bought to me! She's having alot of work done next year, new bodykit, wheels, suspension, engine chromed, paint job and i have been quoted around 11k from envy. It may be a little bit more depending on whether i want anything else done! I wont tell you all now what im having done now but come nearer the time, i will tell you all. All i can say is, she will look totally different and she will be very nice to look at inside and out!.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SilverSoop Posted August 2, 2007 Author Share Posted August 2, 2007 Surely you won't want that 6 speed box Oh yes, beats my 5 speed anyday!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SilverSoop Posted August 2, 2007 Author Share Posted August 2, 2007 £4k? Bargain! Yeh ok maybe not all that cheap but considering if you want to buy a decent tt, you are looking around £6500 plus. So looking at that, i think its not all that bad. Tbh, for that type of conversion, i was thinking it would be alot dearer because of how big the job is to do!

SilverSoop Posted August 2, 2007 Author Share Posted August 2, 2007 Often wondered about this myself. although no one would really insure me...who's insuring you? Atm, im insured with adrian flux until febuary. After that, i will then go with sky insurance. As my supe will still be an n/a in febuary, my insurance should drop to a grand and once the conversion is done, i think the insurance go up by an extra £500.

SilverSoop Posted August 2, 2007 Author Share Posted August 2, 2007 I'm really swaying to the idea of this conversion too. Yeh do it, its well worth it!

Jezz Posted August 2, 2007 Share Posted August 2, 2007 £4k ?!! I was quoted a lot more than that, if yours finished within the budget and have a good finish, I'll be the next customer for jezzybabes! Just for the record, he's already manual, so its just a case of the 6 speed box, not a full manual 6 speed conversion. TT 6 speed conversion into an auto car would be more like £5500.

Jezz Posted August 2, 2007 Share Posted August 2, 2007 as it is straight plug and play Not quite. N/A Engine bay loom is different, and wont take 3 or 4 of the plugs from the TT Engine loom. We have to do a modification. Nothing major though, just find the right wires for ecu 12v, starter 12v etc etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jezz Posted August 2, 2007 Share Posted August 2, 2007 how long would you need the car for all the works? Couple of days. Most customers leave the car with us 4 days. We have a courtesy aerotop, and a 6 speed VVTI for all our mkiv.net customers, joe public gets the fiesta. Only Supra drivers get to use the Supras as a courtesy car.
