What previous cars have you owned? You can't get noticable power out of an NA without a turbo. Forget airfilters, exhaust etc get a 2JZGTE engine and put it in. Job done!

Im affraid im with everyone else - There's a few options.

 

Either drop a tt lump in your n/a

Buy a na-t turbo kit

Or sell your n/a and buy a tt.

 

But can i ask if youve had 450bhp skyline's why have you bought a n/a supra and now wanting more power? Surely that R32 with that amount of bhp cost alot of money to do.

Ironically I've just become a dad and am looking at buying an r32 as a daily drive. Surely it's not as impractical as the supra?

I know the R33's are more practical, more room in the back, and the seats are flatter. However, not as much boot space.

My supre is my daily, and we get along just fine (plus all my daughter says while in the car is "GO GO GO! FASTER FASTER!") :D

when I bought my NA many moons ago I quickly realised that I would want more power very quickly and it became very apparent very early on that if I'd done my homework I'd have saved myself the hassle and just bought a TT in the first place so that's what I did it seemed to be the cheapest and easiest way in the short and long term so I bought a UK spec TT and all was good then I sold it to some bloke from France who seemed happy enough and then I bought another TT which is the one I have now and its superb personally I don't see the point in whacking on a turbo to an NA as the cost is too high plus you have to sort so many other bits out but people seem to say that they can't afford a TT but can afford to blow thousands on an NA to NA-T conversion but that just makes no sense to me at all but the thing I really liked about the TT was that when you opened the boot it was full. of. full. stops. and p,u,n,c,t,u,a,t,i,o,n marks!!

 

I'm still tired and no less ratty today.

 

I'm off out to buy ammo later.

 

And then I'm going to read the blog about Lee Child being happy that Tom 'Can You Lift Me Up' Cruise is going to play Jack Reacher!! Seriously Lee, you're happy that a 4 foot closet-dwelling Scientologist is going to play a 6 foot 6 inch, 250 pound man, a 'large man who casts a small shadow' as you put it. Really Lee, really? Or did you sell out Lee? I want answers Child and by god you're going to give them to me!

 

That should just about do it. I think I'll start my spree in Barclays. 5 days to clear a cheque? Oh do feck orf!! 5 days? Wars have started and ended in less than 5 days! I've been married and split up in less than 5 days! Stop using my money on Bingo sites and just put it in my account! I earned it, it's mine!

 

So in summary, drive NA off cliff. Buy TT. Use full stops and capitals. Respect your elders. Call your mother at least twice a week and thank her for all she's done. Give to charity. Don't dye your hair. Sing whenever you can. Eat what you want in moderation. Just try, try, to be nice to each other.

 

Oh, and have a nice day.

:D Brilliant :D

Shame you can only subscribe to threads and not individual users lol You're priceless right now Ellis :)

 

Didnt realise the Jack Reacher novels were being put to the big screen. You are right though, Tom Cruise is NOT the right actor to play Jack Reacher. It should be someone who actually fits the description in the novels.

Love these books, got every one in the series :D
