Another Black/Black TT MKIV Targa Supra...

Hi all!

 

I'm Ambush and I live in Hawaii and this is my first post. Hopefully, it will profit me to go through these forums to find information I need. While I'm at it, does anyone have any information (I tried it's hard to find) on replacing the 3rd Brake Light? Not the bulb, but the whole housing. I replaced mine fine, but it's too loose. It's very tidious to tighten down and I'm not sure if the 2 metal back pieces are broken or not. Thanks!

 

p.s. Just purchased a 1 year subscription to the forums

i bet you have all the good weather to keep the roof off to :cool:there is the search bar as well i am sure you will find out what you need the black plastic cover on the inside of the boot just pulls off to dont know if you will be able to see the light from there ?

VERY nice looking car you have there... and to the club

Welcome to the club!! Gorgeous Aero you have there, and it's a manual you lucky sod And not to forget- It's in the best colour too

Hi mate,

 

What a motor you've got there! 6 Speed TT aero, people over here dream of a RHD version.

 

There will be a lot of jealous members on here, especially as you live in Hawaii!

 

Welcome to the forum, nice to see foreign members joing up

 

Matt

That you have their sir... is a beaut. What's the mileage on that. It looks brand new.

 

I have to admit, I dream of a 6spd TT Aero.

It's got about 86,000 miles on it. What do you guys mean by Aero? I'm thinking you mean Targa Top. RHD = Right hand drive? You mean my shifter is on right side? Sorry just want to understand better. Anyways, thanks for the warm welcome. Yes, it is a blessing to live in Hawaii. I'm originally from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

 

Car used to be blacked out everything. I bought all new lights including 98' headlights and taillights. Its not a standard black. It's has some sparkle in it. It's subtle, and makes it look more glossy.

Yes, RHD = Right Hand Drive (UK/Jap style - shifter on the left)

Aero = Targa Top.

Welcome..!!

 

Has the car been resprayed in black? Lovely looking car..!!

In Britain, the Targo Top Supras are called Aerotops (it's the model name). Yes, RHD means right hand drive, but relates to the position of the steering wheel. Your car is LHD. It's RHD over here because we drive on the left side of the road (the correct side )

 

Anyways, thanks for the warm welcome. Yes, it is a blessing to live in Hawaii. I'm originally from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

 

Philadelphia - born and raised? On a playground did you spend most of your days? Perhaps chilling out, maxing and relaxing all cool? Maybe shooting some b-ball outside of the school?

Yeah, black everything looks terrible imo, there needs to be stuff in there like your chrome rim lips to break things up a bit

Maybe it is Will Smith, Matt.

 

Hello and welcome from another TT aerotop owner.

 

Mine's an auto, though, and have plans for a conversion one day, but for now it's completely covered in snow at my house, so not going anywhere with the roof on, or off, for that matter!

Maybe it is Will Smith, Matt.

 

I can hope! But I doubt the thrill would bother with an old toyota... I wonder what he owns, there's a google!

 

At least you had the roof on before it started snowing, that would be tradgic if it happened!

if only they made tt6 aero tops with the wheel on the correct side

 

Welcome that is an absolute beauty of a car you have there!

I can't help but think of this when I hear of Philadelphia:

Welcome!

 

 

Why does cars always looks better when you know there are from Hawaii or some other exotic place

Great to see a LHD TT6 Aero, Wish I had one, or at least a LHD.

 

A very nice car you have there!

You can explain to us what the second button on the passengers door then! Can you can confirm that it is a window lock button?

It's changes the car from LHD to RHD. It pushes the steering wheel over. You just have to hold the button down. Oh...and yes it locks the windows from being rolled down

Welcome..!!

Yeah. It's black paint, but has sparkles or flakes whatever you want to call it. I'll try to post another pic close up I. My garage (on forum) one day.

Funny everyone complementing me. All your cars in your avatars are REALLY nice looking. Wait for it...."mate". Ok, I'm officially English!

They do

Is that standard? Or is yours a gearbox change?

Welcome me ol china...sorry iam London :-), lovely motor you have there all you need now is the bonnet scoop to go with the uk/us spec engine you have fitted, the give away is the cooling rear turbo snorkal.

 

Pehaps someone changed the bonnet at some point?

 

Iam i bitter and jelous.....never;-)

It's changes the car from LHD to RHD. It pushes the steering wheel over. You just have to hold the button down.

 

I've seen cars that can actually do that.

Our cars do not have that button. So it's a mystery to us. We only have a window lock on the drivers side.
