Your 2011 Supra plans?

Forum seems a bit quiet so thought this may make an interesting read, whats your 2011 plans for your supra?

Got a few things going on with mine, doubt i will bother with another project thread.

New lump being built now, bigger cams/double valve springs, flowing the head, billet main caps going in.

Got a ACPT carbon prop going in and a ETS 5" intercooler.

Hypertune intake manifold with ID2200cc injectors and twin wastegate exhaust manifold.

Going back to fitting a rollcage and bucket seats an all.

I want a new turbo but im waiting to see what comes out yet.

Looking forward to getting it back and some dry roads:)

Get it back on the road.

Try and get more power.

Sell it

Buy a TT 6 and fit a ridox kit.

Get rich

Buy a viper.

Well I'm not for away with mine. Funds permitting I'll be firing it up in feb sometime, then driving it to the bodyshop for paint. Well hopefully.

Unfortunately I need a new battery as Redtops are shite, so that is no.1 on the list.

Other than that I just plan on enjoying it the way it is this year and cracking on with a single install next year (collecting the kit if I can this year).

Get it fit for MOT

Tidy up the paint with a trial rear bumper

My plans for the car are simple and mainly cosmetic,

Carbon Rear Diffuser

Carbon Lip Spoiler

Debadge Boot / Nose

ICE system

New wheels and Tyres for trackdays

Wishlist / Engine Management, Single Turbo and 600hp (unlikely to be 2011)

Also saving for a garage/gym before the weather sets in again next year!!

Yours a daily(ish) driver though mate. I was warned away from them when I was looking to buy one but I didn't listen, as it fits my battery cage. If you even think of deep cylcing it it will be game over for the battery. I didn't drive mine for 3 months and now it is dead, my car won't even idle properly after being jump started lol.

Not sure what I am going to do battery wise

Sell the car and buy a Ford F350.

Sell ours and get an RS4...!!

Or maybe have both, finances permitted.

H.

I just want this damn snow to go away, not had a chance to drive mine in anger since it was mapped

Plans for me are to complete the lightweight mods, respray then plenty of summer hooning

1. j-spec rear brakes to accomadate 15" x 12" lightweight rims

2. diff ratio change

3. session on dyno - race map

4. engine kill switch (interior + exterior)

5. new drivers seat

6. get sound system working after cutting all cablesout when stripping interior

You should be fine, I made the mistake of leaving mine connected. The battery sat in my house for a month before I fitted it and it was perfect, it only seems to be an issue when there is a drain on the battery and it deep cycles.

Wait 10 days for money to move bank accounts.

Make out a banker's draft.

Buy the UK TT6.

Drive the UK TT6.

Meet up with people on here and show it off to friends.

Maybe go BPU at the end of next year.

1.work very hard to get more cash

2.Get suspension and brakes fitted

3.replace doors bonnet and bootlid with carbon versions

4.drop the car to Rob to spray the engine bay

5.let Lee p get his hands on the engine bay

6.have alot of fun come summertime

7.resist selling it all and buying the tvr sagaris I have been thinking about.

Why no new thread Jamie? I realise they're work to keep them upto date with pics etc, but they're a great contribution to the forum, and certainly motivate people to better their own.

As for mine, if I keep it I will hopefully be having a VVTI 1JZ imported and fitted by Jurgen. However, funds may be tight this year, and i'm already on with converting my MK1 Golf GTi into a track car.

- Edit -

I'll be buying a UGR Ferrari F430 TT Spyder (If I win the jackpot)

I've replaced my yellow top for a red top, the first one that the garage sold me was a dud I got a replacement it's been fine for the 1 week I got to drive it. I left my house in a hurry and left the battery connected by the time I get home it would of been 3 months..! I really hope that does not kill it...!

Nothing major, would like to tidy it up cosmetically but probably won't bother as normal

Mechanics wise:

- Uprated clutch

- Fit a limited slip diff (Open diff's are the work of satan)

- Fit a TT engine

- UK rear brakes

- Change suspension

Completely fix up the N/A ready for brands hatch in feb.

Sell the N/A and buy a TT6.

Do simple upgrades (Suspension, wheels, etc).

Possibly a little bit of BPU, but I'm gonna stick with the stock fun for a bit.
