Guest trouble Posted March 23, 2011 Share Posted March 23, 2011 Hi Im not really new on here but I usually just nose around the site. I had a n/a manual before but Im going to look at a 6 speed tt at the weekend. Any advice on what I should be looking for?? Its was an n/a and its been converted, the current owner is a mechanic so has done the work himself. Everything looks very shiney.. engines polished, new wheels, exhaust, intercooler etc.. and car has been resprayed. Keep tech talk simple though (im a girl) lol Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TTRickeh Posted March 23, 2011 Share Posted March 23, 2011 Got a link to where it's advertised? Hope it's a straight one for you. Don't automatically assume that because he's a mechanic he knows what he's doing though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KamaSupra Posted March 28, 2011 Share Posted March 28, 2011 When I said put up pics of YOU and the car I was only joking But as you've went through the trouble of putting them up, it's only fair that I comment. Looking good with great bodywork.... Car ain't too bad either Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevie_b Posted March 28, 2011 Share Posted March 28, 2011 Hello trouble! I think there's a buyer's guide somewhere on here as a sticky thread. That will give you pointers on what to look for with supras in general. As for the NA > TT conversion, you'd want to make sure you test every feature/toy it has, to check it's all been fitted correctly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
