This known to anyone guys?

Looks interesting. R154, 1uz, what's not to like?

Never seen it but its good to see a v8 with a manual conversion esp R154 not a bad price either

I saw this at Modified Mania, had a quick chat with him

He said he had been banned off here for supposed trading, but said he wasn't ( I did not want to get into it, think from memory he mentioned Listy, so he might no more)

The Supra was okay, bit scruffy and lowered to the deck

The conversion looked okay from what I could see, but I didn't have a proper check over

My main concern would be the bodywork, I didn't go over it properly, but seem to remember thinking it do with some work and with it being the specialist paint it is, it's not going to be just a quick cheap touch up

Ah right. Hmm. I resprayed my s13 last year, and it took me AGES. Was good in the end, but wouldn't want to do another any time soon

Would have made sense for someone to pick a nice shell in the first place to do a big conversion eh

It wouldn't surprise me if it was a nice shell when the conversion was done

You have to remember it's not an expensive conversion if you do it yourself

Let's for instance say it was an N/A Auto with a deadish engine, assuming they wanted to go manual, going V8 R154 isn't an expensive option

I would say if you get it for the right price it would be worth a punt, just don't expect a clean show car

I would class it more of a slammed to the deck track/drift car

It looked okay paint wise, just not great and to give the guy his due, he has said it in the advert

Ye true I know what u mean. R154 ~1200, 1uz ~800, then the price of an NA auto in the first place maybe 1500, so about right, ish

I was gonna buy this when I sold my tt it looks ok but the thought of owning a bright yellow car used every day around Birmingham would put me right off plus people would try and say it's copying mike lavelys supra because people are like that

YEA I agree, there's only room for one Liquid Yellow Supra round here ... So the only conclusion I can come up with is to burn it with FIRE

I'm not getting another supra for a while mate sold mine made a big profit and have a range rover now haha

Lol I'm playing mate, I would not care if someone copied my Supra at all... If anything I would park next to it and take some pics lol

I'm in 2 minds atm as whether or not to sell one of the Soarers and get a supra again.

The problem before was fuel economy and trying to get a baby seat in the back . Fuel economy doesn't matter as much as before, but I now have 2 cars anyway, a v8 soarer and a tuned tt soarer. The v8 gets decent mpg and has a big back seat and boot, it's a really good daily. Soooo, should I sell the tt and get another supra is the question?

You know the Supra looks much sexier... you know you want too

After seeing your car in the flesh this summer, I have to say that I love the colour. It really suits the car.
