Whitesupraboy2 Posted July 24, 2007 Share Posted July 24, 2007 Well after JAE I saw some lovely supe's. Its made me realise I want a supe with power and handling. Something I could never put into the abflug. Im gonna run out this insurance year and then take a break from the scene and then come back with a nice standard looking supra and go for handling and more responsive power. Bad part is ive got 9 - 10months of insurance to go (yes I did say bad part). I've fallen out of love with the car, too much hassle and effort and by the end of it I wont feel like enjoying it. Good point is that the abflug goes in on August 18th to have the body work finished. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamesG Posted July 24, 2007 Share Posted July 24, 2007 Why does having a car with a bodykit stop you from making engine and suspension modifications? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobSheffield Posted July 24, 2007 Share Posted July 24, 2007 James, why not sell the Ab and buy a nice sorted Supra - you ought to get a good £36,000 by NOBR standards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whitesupraboy2 Posted July 24, 2007 Author Share Posted July 24, 2007 Why does having a car with a bodykit stop you from making engine and suspension modifications? Its the wide wheels, its just not correct for a good handling car. Unfortunatly im not made of money and smaller wheels wouldnt look right, ideally id need to buy fully adjustable suspension for the car as well. The abflug should really be a show car and nothing else not an every day car like I use it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trig Posted July 24, 2007 Share Posted July 24, 2007 Think yours is more of a show car than a track car, so if thats what you want mate i say go for it!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ivan Posted July 24, 2007 Share Posted July 24, 2007 P.s hunted for you on sunday before I went but couldnt find you I didn't spot you either DB. Were you still there Sunday? I somehow thought you'd be selling up when I heard you talking at the last St Leonard meet James. Oh well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
juanchan Posted July 24, 2007 Share Posted July 24, 2007 How come you're going to take a break from the scene? Surely you could source a near-mint nearly-stock TT for less than you'll get for the Abflug? As others have said, make sure you do get decent money for it!

dangerous brain Posted July 25, 2007 Share Posted July 25, 2007 Yup I was almost last to leave. I was only next door on the aristo stand (but wandering around talking to lots of folks all day) How you didn't spot a dirty great purple aristo and a range rover with a caravan I dunno Ivan Anyway Hi-jack over back to WSB2's crap drivin skills and why he really ought to stick to show cars Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedM Posted July 25, 2007 Share Posted July 25, 2007 It'll be a shame if you sell it. I bet the FTO owners club are crying into their alco-pops already. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lockys96 Posted July 25, 2007 Share Posted July 25, 2007 same thing has crossed my mind james, i got to the point where i couldnt be bothered anymore. in not sure how my car will handle on track, and thats what i want to do, is it worth spending 10k on my car to find this out? simon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whitesupraboy2 Posted July 25, 2007 Author Share Posted July 25, 2007 Si these wide cars arent designed for that, plain and simple. I want to be able to enjoy it again and back to scratch it is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
