Hey peeps, new owner here. So new I haven't even picked it up yet :(

 

Saturday is the day and frankly it's a little scary. Went for test drive with sales bloke on the day we bought and it gave me a wee face lift. HUH!!

 

Been driving a Fiat Coupe 16VT for the last five years so this is an upgrade for us.

 

Neways, my name is Anja, I am 37 and my other half is Paul (36).

 

You be seeing and reading a lot from us I would guess as we are complete Supra newbies so we will ask a lot of questions.

 

Will post you exact specs when I got em for now I only know it's a 1993,33k on clock, 3lt, TT, Automatic, been in the country 2 weeks and it's mint. Oh and it goes like stink. :p:D

 

Nice to be here and thanks Bill UK for pointing me towards this forum :)

Hey there Anja and Paul. :welcome: to the club.

Pity about Saturday, Wile e coyote and a few others are heading up to the Chippenham meet then. Sure you'd have been warmly welcomed on the run up.

Haven't met any of the D and C people, but they sure are keen.

Have fun.:)

Yeah cheers mate I saw the meet date and thought darn shame, but I am sure once we got the hang of how not to kill ourselfs in a Supra we will join in a bit. :)

Hey up peeps, here is the promised update with specs now that we have them.

 

Full Veilside bodykit

18 inch alloys

After market exhaust

Blitz Dump Valve

 

 

By the way what kind of money are guys paying for insurance??

 

We just got a quote for £438 a year, with all mods. Not to bad given we paid only £70 less for a standart 16VT,Fiat Coupe.

 

PS: Will be sending off a check for member ship in the next few days. :D

Welcome

Great to see more additions to the growing cornwall group:):)

 

If your supe is a fresh import i would reccomend getting the tyres checked out as the jap rubber is only rated up to 90mph.

I changed my tyres a few months after import as they were lethal.

The tyre fitter could not make a 265 wide tyre stand up on its own it was that twisted lol
