That car currently stands me at a figure of above £50k including the original purchase price, which in my opinion, makes my asking price a bit of a bargain.

The car is in perfect running condition, the engine has had a full check over and compression and leakdown tests and all is perfect, however, it is not quite finished, on the last mapping session, the clutch was slipping and the fuel pump was struggling to keep up, so it was again dumped on a conservative map and not to exceed 3k rpm to avoid any issue as it couldnt get a good map once the single started to spool, I have my new AEM pump and clutch ready to go in and send the car back for mapping, expecting around 700hp without straining anything too much.

I have boxes of spares to go with it

In regard to bad points:

The paintwork could ideally do with a blow over, the car was originally RSP and it has had a blow over in a lighter shade that is starting to flake in a few places.

The car is very loud, I would try and find a quieter exhaust system, it sounds fantastic, but gets annoying quickly.

Oil light is on, this would be sorted in the next mapping session though, oil pressure is perfect.

ABS Light is on, this is bacause when everything is stripped down to re-paint/replace the drivers side rear sensor broke(very common), so I would supply a brand new sensor and happy to cover any costs associated with replacing it.

Current mileage of the car is 76k miles and although it currently has no MOT, it will have one put on for a buyer.

Please appreciate that this is not a combo you really come accross Facelift/Aerotop/6 Speed/Single and I can't think of another in existence, this was also done using a FULL TT6 donor car, so EVERY part was swapped, it wasn't your normal engine/gearbox and diff change, it had all subframes, suspension parts, dash, clocks, brakes, it was the entire car and was done at AFR, labour alone amounted to over £3k.

So, the bit you all want, the price. Due to it's current standing, I'm happy to offer 2 different price options:

As it is £19,000 and buyer has clutch and pump replaced(which I will include with sale) and sent for final map.

With the above done £21,000

I think that I have priced the car fairly and even as much as it would break my heart to see it, you could break the car and get back more than the above.

Also note that this is a high power single, with adjoining mods, so with the RPS flywheel and clutch and a TRD mount, the gearbox is noisy, with the engine mods, the car is noisy, don't expect it to be quiet and refined

Happy to answer any questions and thanks for reading.

Will try and get better pics shortly

what a car

Lovely car mate. Glws! You fool!!

Wow this is probably my dream supra right there. Lovely looking car. If I win the lottery this week I'll come get it lol GLWS

I don't usually chip in to For Sale threads with chit chat, but I will do here. That looks fantastic. I love the OEM look. A real sleeper!

Sorry to go a little of topic here but how did you find the difference from stock up pads and disks to the brembos? And where do you get them from?

Beautiful looking car there mate at a real bargain price this won't hang around for long

Glwts mate

What I would give to buy this back!!!!

21 grand apparently!

An absolutely stunning car this! You're a fool for selling really

GLWTS Marc great car

Very tidy. Good spec for the dosh. Good Luck Matey.

Thanks for the comments guys, it really is a hard decision to sell this, but the yank V8 itch is just getting too much, always used the excuse of them being LHD to try and put myself off them, but with the new Mustang coming here in RHD, I cannot resist any longer.

Can't really help there, I got them with the callipers, so the car went straight from J spec to UK spec with the disks and pads, they are pattern part ones though, no drilled/grooved ones.

What I would give to buy this back!!!!

It's been an emotional journey of ups and downs and it's certainly come a long way, I honestly believed I would never sell this car, but times change and the funds won't allow another car, I have a new E-Class on order for me and the missus, still have the 944 and R32 GTR and hoping to go lay a deposit down with Ford to get on the Mustang waiting list next month, this car just has too much money in it for the one that gets used the least.

GLWTS Marc great car

I know I am, I very much doubt this will be my last Supra though as I have had 4 of them and never been without one for the past 7 1/2 years. I will probably find myself picking up a nice standard TT6 in the not to distant future, once the R32 peaks in value, I'll more than likely trade out for a standard TT6 as an investment.

Why did this not come up for sale 5 weeks ago before i made the decision to have my Aerotop resprayed and singled....

GLWS, thats a very honest sounding ad.

That made me lol..!!

Good luck with the sale Mark - You are so close to the finishing line, I would suggest you fit the clutch, upgrade the fuel pump (You may need to upgrade the size of the power cable to it at the same time) and you will have a cracking car to sell. A VERY well spec'd car that will fit the needs of a serious buyer.

There is only one other thing that I would suggest... get that TRD mount off your gearbox, the noise will put people off - I thought mine was faulty when I had it on and it was horrible!

Thanks Jon. Still fully intend to finish but it's going to be a month or 2 til I get the time, hence putting it up for sale now with the option of someone else doing the last bits. I know what you mean about the TRD mount, I get some crazy gearbox noises under acceleration from 1500-3000 rpm especially. I'll get a normal one back on if I get a chance though.

Have seen this car a few times and have watched Marc as he has worked on it in his garage. I know the effort and knowledge put into it.

Good luck on the sale Marc.

Fantastic car and well priced id want similar money. If I didn't have mine id be on the blower

GLWS marc, would loved to have seen this in the flesh with any luck it will stay in the club.

Good luck Marc, I have been going on Dragonball events with this car since 2011. Very well priced too if you consider how much just a TT6 Aero would set you back alone.

Such a stunning car with the roof off, shame you are selling it for a slow Ford.

Marc

Can you post up some pictures of the interior please mate?

Cheers

Greg

Updated first post, it's depressing, but I'm now open to the low-ballers, I have no time left and having to work all the time.

I would add that if anyone has anything of a good chunk lower value then I could be open to PX.

Absolutely awesome car dude, nice to see you've kept it so simple on the outside too I hope you either get someone to pay your asking price or you keep it for yourself. Would be a shame to see you take a bad offer on it after all the hard work you've put in.

Just to update, the car is now having it's work done, so won't be around for a couple of months, but will hopefully be a turnkey 700hp and ready to go once all work is completed.
