j_jza80 Posted March 20, 2015 Share Posted March 20, 2015 Stunning But I think you should leave the GS300 Sport TTE Grandstands on it, they look amazing. Perfect wheels for a black stock body Supra IMO. I'd seen pics of this on Jurgens Facebook and wondered who's it was. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spunkmeyer Posted March 20, 2015 Author Share Posted March 20, 2015 I want see how the Volks look on CW suspension but overall agree on TTEs, just fancied a change for a bit. will have the Volk for DB15 and mostly use the TTEs - it's the diamond cut finish is a PITA. I get one refurbed and another gets a knock... So on and so on. Well pleased with a 2002 vvti, was keeping quiet as I just wanted to wait til it was all sorted and mine was sold. That's getting picked up tonight. Great deal by Jurgen and a few upgrades for the moment. [emoji3] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
214supra Posted March 20, 2015 Share Posted March 20, 2015 That's a gorgeous car, I'm sure it looks even better with that set of Volks . Can't wait to see it at dragonball. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spunkmeyer Posted March 21, 2015 Author Share Posted March 21, 2015 Picked it up today. Great help form the lads at JMimports, had a little rub on the fronts so the TTEs went back on for a safe 3hr trip back home Mixed opinions on which wheels which is surprising. Some more photos.

Homer Posted March 21, 2015 Share Posted March 21, 2015 That's one very well looked after car, JM-Imports did a great job again Personally I prefer the TTE wheels, but wheels are always a very personal thing... you'll never please everyone so just go with your preference.

themodifiedkid Posted March 21, 2015 Share Posted March 21, 2015 Looks amazing. That's gotta be more or less the last one of the production line. Well done Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Wilson Posted March 21, 2015 Share Posted March 21, 2015 Very nice, if you were to ask me I would say TTE wheels, both technically and aesthetically. I see even a 2002 is not immune to the famous broken top rad hose clip. I have yet to find a part number for the damned thing, anyone know any better? You must be very chuffed with this fine machine!

Spunkmeyer Posted March 21, 2015 Author Share Posted March 21, 2015 (edited) Thanks everyone, really very pleased! Yep 2002 and mileage was enough for me Chris - the ride is much better, same suspension, same wheels!!..... Glad I haven't got an appradio anymore hated that thing... (Will post interior picks tomorrow) So wheels. TTEs are sensible option still despite liking the Volks a lot! Well I think it's not implausible to sell the Volks having owned them a mere 2weeks, you really can't tell until you buy wheels and have them on your own car. Rather an expensive window shopping experience. but there is no chance I'm taking a loss on them so they could be for sale for appropriate price. Anyways enjoyable ride home listening to the Rugby. (And the exhaust note of course) - I was in convoy mind so was a steady cruise Edited March 21, 2015 by Spunkmeyer (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supra_ufo Posted March 21, 2015 Share Posted March 21, 2015 Wheels are nice but I think the car needs oem skirts and spats for them to go well with the rest of the car Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spunkmeyer Posted June 13, 2015 Author Share Posted June 13, 2015 Just a quick update. Had no joy selling the Volks so I gave Adam a call at Arch Enemy who came and did a great job rolling the fronts. I'd rather use them than keep them in the shed all summer... So here is the result I think it's one of those where the Volks look great in real life but don't look so good in pictures, but the TTEs are the opposite photograph well with the diamond cut finish but don't look great in real life (the fronts I don't like). Anyway I'm happy with the Volks and its sitting well (TTE 18s were low on the front and high on the back) the 19s are more even. I don't know why I'm sure someone will explain Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hitbox Junkie Posted June 13, 2015 Share Posted June 13, 2015 Not a fan of the TTE's but great looking car Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
