R Black Posted August 30, 2007 Share Posted August 30, 2007 I was just wondering how long people had had there supra's before changing, what upgrades they did if any, and what faults they had. I've had mine nearly 11 months & love it, i mostly only drive weekends, i can't think of many cars i would want replace it with other than say the ilk of a 993tt (which i can't afford so....) So far i've only facelifted ext lights & changed the dash to white dials & all blue leds, i've had no real issues, MOT is now imminent think my off side bushings are worn as they squeak and knock a little Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve Posted August 30, 2007 Share Posted August 30, 2007 Had mine for 3 years now, only done 6000 miles in that time. But is currently in the middle of a single turbo upgrade as the original turbos departed the car Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suprasteve Posted August 30, 2007 Share Posted August 30, 2007 coming up to 5 years now. straight away i got rid of the huge supra transfers along both sides then after a year i changed front and side indicators to clear ones. I managed to hold of the urge for more power for nearly 2 years but then i needed to replace my exhurst so thought sod it i'll go BPU at the same time....never looked back since. touch wood apart from the normal wear and tear items i've not had anything go wrong (except from a dashboard bulb and boot rubbers;)) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Havard Posted August 30, 2007 Share Posted August 30, 2007 I've had mine 6 months and I feel that I have lost it to the wife.......... It has done 3k miles in that time. Went straight through the MOT last month! Love it but thinking of going a bit "up market" in the next 12 months! H. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marco Posted August 30, 2007 Share Posted August 30, 2007 Nearly 5 years now. Got it from Calder, was a bit of a dog tbh, has cost me loads of money to get it in excellent condition. I've done about 50k miles in it. I'm on my 2nd set of hybrids now. BPU+++ atm, dont think I can take it much further power wise without going single. But I'm very happy with it. Been through a few traders as well. First went to JPS who was recommended highly... hmmm I've been at Dude's a few times, but he had left the scene, too bad Also Turbofit was recommended... they're gone as well. So need to look for someone else to service my car , and not rip me off! Haven't put any mods on my car for over a year or so, might get a brake upgrade soon, don't know yet. -Marco Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
