Guest fredde Posted October 28, 2013 Share Posted October 28, 2013 Hi everyone! Thought it would be time to introduce myself. (tbh the yellow banner keeps telling me to post! ) I’m a 22year old kiddo from Sweden in a constant search for his dream car. My cars so for have been 1. Volvo 850R 1996 2. Volvo S60R AWD 2004 3. Mitsubishi Evo 8 MR FQ-320 2004 (current) And with some luck this year i'll have a black Supra 96 UK TT 6speed. Mainly joined this forum because of the sheer kindness I've seen towards members around here and the sweet guides like "when buying a supra", "model charts" and so on have helped alot. Kind regards fredde Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abz Posted October 28, 2013 Share Posted October 28, 2013 Welcome to the club Fredde! Nice list of cars you have there, any pictures of the FQ-320? I love them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j_jza80 Posted October 28, 2013 Share Posted October 28, 2013 Welcome Have you found this Supra? You're not the first Swedish person to join this forum looking for a Black UK TT 6 speed . Unfortunately, they're very rare, and the few I know of will never be sold by their owners. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Havard Posted October 28, 2013 Share Posted October 28, 2013 Welcome. Good luck with the search on that one. H. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyson Posted October 28, 2013 Share Posted October 28, 2013 Hi and welcome to the club, if that is the spec you are set on then you have a choice of 2 cars in the entire country. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, if you expand your search to just a black 6 speed then you have a choice of 11 Still not great odds.

Guest fredde Posted October 28, 2013 Share Posted October 28, 2013 Welcome to the club Fredde! Nice list of cars you have there, any pictures of the FQ-320? I love them Thank you! Yeah I quite please with this picture and I hope you can see it, I followed a guide here How to attach pictures. Welcome Have you found this Supra? You're not the first Swedish person to join this forum looking for a Black UK TT 6 speed . Unfortunately, they're very rare, and the few I know of will never be sold by their owners. Thank you! Yes I've found one here in Swedens most active car-trading site. The link is here: http://www.blocket.se/orebro/Toyota_Supra_50050976.htm?aw=1 I still await his respond about sending the chassie number and so on to confirm that this is a UK car, I found it odd that the hood is missing the scoop. Just gave google translate a shot at the text and its fubar In short : "100% rust free, Tax and MOT till May 2014, Refurbed gearbox, stage 3 clutch, 264 cams, 255 pump, electronic boost controller, HKS Dragger w/ race cat, plenum intake and D2 coils." Cheers F. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyson Posted October 28, 2013 Share Posted October 28, 2013 That's a very negative approach. Facts are facts i'm afraid, i'm just giving the guy a realistic view point. Doesn't matter as he's already found one Love the Evo, I will get one just to scratch that itch !! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guigsy Posted October 28, 2013 Share Posted October 28, 2013 "100% rust free" 100% not uk-spec Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abz Posted October 28, 2013 Share Posted October 28, 2013 In short : "100% rust free I think the seller is pulling your leg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
listy Posted October 28, 2013 Share Posted October 28, 2013 Circa £14,000 for that one. Aparently 10,000-10500 miles on it I find that hard to believe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Havard Posted October 28, 2013 Share Posted October 28, 2013 The alarm bells are ringing. No scoop, Veilside front bumper and only 800 miles a year. Do me a favour. H. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest fredde Posted October 28, 2013 Share Posted October 28, 2013 The alarm bells are ringing. No scoop, Veilside front bumper and only 800 miles a year. Do me a favour. H. Metric Mil, its about 62-65K imperial miles I think the seller is pulling your leg Thats pretty much a common bullsh!t line here in sweden when trying to sell a car Alltho he promised to get me some pictures when the car is raised. Circa £14,000 for that one. Aparently 10,000-10500 miles on it I find that hard to believe. That's metric Mil, about 62-65k imperial miles if im right Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Havard Posted October 28, 2013 Share Posted October 28, 2013 In which case it is a little more believable. Tread carefully with this car. H. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest fredde Posted October 29, 2013 Share Posted October 29, 2013 In which case it is a little more believable. Tread carefully with this car. H. Will do, although I find it weird to put a plenum intake on it even though its not pushing a great amount of power, sure the are more aggressive cams and somewhat of a complete bpu. From what I know (on Volvos) you don’t need a plenum until you really are pushing above 650 horses. Could this be for looks maybe? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what I know (on Volvos) you don’t need a plenum until you really are pushing above 650 horses. Could this be for looks maybe? Could it be a car that had been running higher power originally and the owner has cashed in on the parts before selling and returned to near stock?

Guest fredde Posted November 4, 2013 Share Posted November 4, 2013 Could it be a car that had been running higher power originally and the owner has cashed in on the parts before selling and returned to near stock? I suspect that's case. Although I've been asking a few questions about the car and all of the sudden he stops replying and breaks the contact between us. (Got a bad feeling about this all of the sudden) Oh well, back to searching for another supra and store the Evo in the garage I guess Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
