The-Plethora Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 Amazing work, there are plenty of cheap NAs around and it really makes picking a second supra up a nice proposition. Aside from the car costs how much would you figure you have spend on the various parts? I figure some new some second hand. You really should start doing some trading stuff.

JDukesy Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 sooo, i poped along today to get the car on the rollers and have the fuelling ect tweeked to suit the new auto set up and the results.............. @ 15 psi of boost 510 bhp 500 lbs ft pretty pleased with that and i must say the thing feel rapid. the way the power comes on with all that torque makes it feel very savage. maximum concertration required in the wet drive home . but exelent fun and all this for less than 3k. gota be pleased with that Awesome result! Now im once again in two minds as to whether to sell my n/a or not! If its possible to do NA-T for this kind of money including the auto-box and having already spent a good bit on my car then it starts to make more and more sense. Awesome results, the salvation of the NA is here! I love the noise of these things, i am going to start collecting the bits me thinks! ^^ this! Massive respect for saying you were going to do it and just doing it! With builds like this we might start to see a bit of n/a love and less of the "burn it and buy a TT" stuff!

-Welsh-Stealth- Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 !!!! It wants off the rollers! Ha ha! me likey! I've got an itch... 410 might not be enough NA-T after a spin in the track car How does this one compare? Will have to pop down Thursday now mate, something's popped up at work. So I'll have to impatiently wait till Thursday to see it in action. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

d-_-b Posted August 29, 2012 Share Posted August 29, 2012 Awesome - brilliant sound both pre and during the tunnel! well impressed with the white one too, considering the time before it was looking rather sad in bits and not running propperly!! the NA-T godfather sorts all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j_jza80 Posted August 29, 2012 Share Posted August 29, 2012 Well done for building such a powerful car on such a low budget! Can you post up an itemised list of parts with prices, and mention any fabrication work you've done? Should help to give an overall view of the DIY NA-T route that is bound to become popular now.
