Dave_harman1990 Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 (edited) Hi Everyone, posted up in August with how i was looking to purchase a supra twin turbo manual, FINALLY i have found and bought the car i've waited 6 years to be able to afford, AS WELL as being able to afford the insurance. I'M STOKED!! I am currently an assistant manager (looking to progress soon) of a company called merityre at the kingston branch and i live in chertsey, surrey (for any of you locals ) Anyway, I'm sure some people will love and some will hate but that's cars and that's what makes everyone different. And i am sure many of you have seen the car advertised about. Either way it cost me 10000 pound, Which is what my initial budget was so again very happy! It is a 1993 Supra SZ Aerotop, with a slight twist, It has a pre-vvti j spec twin turbo engine, with the good V161 6 speed gearbox all converted in japan by the way pre import. This car has recently had a full respray in bayside blue to an extremely high standard; it is in immaculate condition Basic performance upgrades pushing a healthy 420bhp at .9psi. It has: HKS SuperPower Air filter (probably going to change to an Apexi, if it will make any at all difference) HKS RS intake pipe Front mount intercooler Walbro Fuel pump 3” downpipe/Decat RSR Cat back exhaust HKS Fuel Cut Defender UK Spec 4pot Front/2pot rear brakes with grooved discs, uprated pads Tein Street Advance coilovers SuperPro Poly bushes Rota Grid 18” Wheels with Goodyear eagle f1's fitted (Changing the wheels as soon as i can) Bomex front bumper and skirts HID headlights Tinted rear windows Carbon bonnet wrap (debating taking it off) Retrimmed seats, leather and alcantara Alpine touch screen headunit with Bluetooth and Satnav Focal speakers Defi boost gauge with controller Clifford Alarm Performance wise it has everything that i was looking to originally do to it which has saved me some money, i do have long term plans though Photos arent great but here you go And the underside of a 21 year old car, pretty clean to be honest i can't complain. Thanks for looking people, glad to finally be an actual Supra owner! Edited February 25, 2014 by Dave_harman1990 (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOGIE Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 Nice mate. Personally id need to change the bonnet to match the car. You should put a diff bush in the rear sub frame also if you now have a TT engine. NAs only had 1 bush. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

j_jza80 Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 The interior reminds me of an Audi RS2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LOGIE Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 Sorry logie im still learning about these cars, which diff do you mean? Can u send me a pic or a link to what you are suggesting please? Your very last pic mate. There is a circular hole in the rear of the subframe approx 3-4". TTs have another bush and bolt going through it securing it to the diff. Threaded hole in diff can also be seen in the pic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Bailey Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 Lovely looking car 420bhp @ 0.9bar? Does it have uprated turbos? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charlton Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 Nice spec and welcome! Carbon bonnet wrap (debating taking it off) Expect to be taking paint off with the wrap and having to get the bonnet resprayed. I took a wrap off my Supra and had to get the whole car done - not cheap! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave_harman1990 Posted February 26, 2014 Author Share Posted February 26, 2014 No idea then sorry ben, it is a small world so who knows . Thanks everyone for the compliments And nope its on stock j spec turbos. I was surprised at the power for boost tbh but apparently its an accurate dyno.

KamaSupra Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 Welcome to the Aero club I remember seeing this Supra on Ebay, looks gorgeous Great colour and having a 6 speed manual gearbox is very lucky, I'm thinking of converting mine to manual too.
