spikedjack Posted April 16, 2012 Share Posted April 16, 2012 Well as a few of you know/have guessed from the breaking thread, i had an accident a few months ago whereby i was sitting at a junction and some dizzy young female decided to cut the corner at (what the policeman described as) 40-50mph into the front of my car . She was my pride and joy, took me 6 months to find and only drove her for about 3 months before this . However, i just thought i'd say, im sticking with the cars as it is honestly my favourite i've ever owned or driven and bought another With the help of Jurgen of JM - Imports, i've purchased a Red 1999 VVTi RZ TT6. One owner, history in japan etc nearly stock and i cannot wait Just thoght i'd share my excitement with the rest of you guys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spikedjack Posted April 16, 2012 Author Share Posted April 16, 2012 Luck i think is the best way to describe it, sitting stationary with my foot on the brake pedal was not the way i invisioned writing off my supra cheers though, the new one looks a lovely clean example and i cannot wait to get my hands on it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Havard Posted April 16, 2012 Share Posted April 16, 2012 Looks lovely. The new one needs dropping a bit at the front and it will be lush. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spikedjack Posted April 16, 2012 Author Share Posted April 16, 2012 The payout took around 2 months to sort out, but with the help of jurgen and a few other, i got what it was worth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sdistc Posted April 16, 2012 Share Posted April 16, 2012 Nice choice, Jack! For what it's worth though, in my opinion you should stay well clear of HSDs. Get a new set of Bilsteins customised by CW, or some TEIN Flex. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
welshbuddy Posted April 16, 2012 Share Posted April 16, 2012 First Dibbs on those Recaros ha, If the condition is Good . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lbm Posted April 16, 2012 Share Posted April 16, 2012 Nice choice, Jack! For what it's worth though, in my opinion you should stay well clear of HSDs. Any particular reason for this? Nice choice on the Red Supra. We all know that is the best colour. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sdistc Posted April 16, 2012 Share Posted April 16, 2012 Any particular reason for this? No hard evidence, apart from my personal experience (crashy among other undesirable qualities). They are a decent budget setup, but I think you can go much better with a little more investment. I also would stay away from TEIN Superstreets.
