Fast and Furious Replica (Orange Supra) - Take 2

Well guys, i really missed my old orange Supra since i sold it almost 2 years ago so i've decided to do it all again cos i'm kind of Crazy that way.

Got myself a starter car last week and this time it's in silver so thought i'd post up a few pics of it as it is now.

But it can't be a replica unless it's an aero

It is a TT or single though right?....

You give us orange owners a bad name. Paint it black this time

Good luck to you mate at least you are dedicated, Personally I am not into the F&F car although without all the decals and spoiler ect I think it has potential to look great like Mitchell9005's. The only other part that pains me is having all that work done to a NA..... On reflection of the film history at least that is keeping with the NA they used and you could always get a picture of Jamie p's nuclear power plant and just lay a cut out of it over yours

sell it and get an aero good to see your doing another project though! looking forward to seeing it done

I love the F&F Supra, so if doing a replica to me it HAS to be an aero. Otherwise you've failed at making a replica aleady, the last replica you made was a hard top too

Still I'm sure once you've finished building her I'll still love it, doesn't need to be an exact copy does it? So good luck and keep us updated with tons of pics!!

Just have the kit and don't do the stickers would be a good start. I always prefer to be in something that is quicker than it looks and not the other way round (I have a NA so awaiting backlash) as when you get a common run of the mill car that is faster than yours and you are in a film car wearing one of dudes shirts and chest wigs and maybe a medallion it just feels pants.

ive noticed alot of people who sell supras end up getting another one lol

someone i speak to on facebook sold the supra and i think its only been a month and he wants a new supra and is getting one now

Good luck to you, it takes dedication and done well can look pretty good. Not my cup of tea by a long shot mind.

Seen a cheap aerotop on eBay the other day lad

looking forward to this !

f&f supra FTW!!

good luck dude but yea needs to be a aero to make it official

Yeah, but i got this car for a bargain.

I know it's not an aerotop, but they are still going for more than i would like to pay really.

I know it's not to everyones tatse, but i like movie and TV cars (Hence KITT from Knightrider that i also used to own.) and it is THIS car that really put the Supra on the map. I love the outlandish colour, wild graphics and genuine presence that the F&F car has.

Ps. this is a build thread, not a "lets bash the owner for doing this" thread so although i love the Futurama picture, i feel that the slogan does not offer much in the way of encouragement

Peter

Has anyone done this with a TT yet??? I am not here to knock and good luck to you I would of only done it to a TT imo but then that is just me.

then it wouldn't be a proper replica, needs to be NA-T oh and overnight parts from Japan........Nengun maybe?

f&f is a reason for alot of people getting a toyota supra !

how about this!?

Fast and Furious was the reason i fell in love with supras i still love that car

I'll second that

I always wanted a supra for a long time when the f&f film came out it was the finel nail in the coffin and I had to have one. Love it or hate it it's an iconic car. Good luck with the build fella

[GRIN][/GRIN]

I'll second that

+1 , good luck to you . I do remember seeing someone in the UK doing a full replica it was front cover + full spread in mag on fast car or maxpower all I remember it was along side a artic lorry and they were shaking fists .

I think a lot of people would say the same. I say go for it Pete you only live once so do what you want with it! Make sure you put lots of pictures up, it does look like a very nice base car though, there must be one with ratty paintwork out there that needs a good going over, yours looks mint as it is.

same here ever since the F&F film i wanted a supra i love the supra on the film i just can't get on with the spoiler they put on i love the original spoiler but everyone's taste is different so i say go for it do what you want to do with it after all its your supra, good luck bud put some pics up as you get further on with it
