Jamesy Posted May 6, 2008 Share Posted May 6, 2008 (edited) ...i may have a Supra N/a lined up for my next car (cant stay away from the Supra scene for too long!!) Even when i had my TT i was pretty clueless as to the technical side of things and more interested in the speed of it. Just wondered what i should look out for in this car? Its done 90k miles, black N/a with gold wheels (will be changing them), auto, clocks in MPH, mileage still in KM's (also, if any1 can give me a rough guide as to what its worth that'd really help me - got 6 months MOT and tax and new-ish tyres ) Thanx in advance Edited May 6, 2008 by Jamesy stupid boy!

Dazzi Posted May 7, 2008 Share Posted May 7, 2008 Check the auto box out. My manual clutch has been on the car for over 9 years which is good. If the auto box is leaking etc or struggles (the usual) it would be costly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamesy Posted May 7, 2008 Author Share Posted May 7, 2008 thanx mate - how exactly do you check an auto box though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dazzi Posted May 7, 2008 Share Posted May 7, 2008 Test it in each gear in auto mode and manual mode. Look for leaks etc try a 'launch' too - in drive but your foot on the brake and slightly hold the throttle around 2k revs (only for a few seconds otherwise the oil will boil) and let off the brake. The car should shoot foward Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
