Big thanks to Lee at SRD for jumping om my new car and giving it the once over.Good news is that I have a nice solid car with some very nice bits. A few tidying up jobs which Lee is doing then collect Saturday and see what Supra's are about!

 

I will see how I get on then decide how far I want to go with it and future tuning.

For those of you who haven't seen his other thread, this is the car he's bought: http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?337836-Hi-I-Have-No-Idea-What-I-have-Bought-Lol

 

Looks very nice, and it's in good hands with SRD. Very nice track / fast road spec car. First thing I'd look to do is swap the ancient Trust turbo with a newer Garrett or Precision turbo and get it mapped accordingly. (a Garrett GTX3582R will make the same power, while spooling up MUCH faster than the greddy turbo currently fitted). Quite a similar spec to my old single turbo car in a lot of ways :)

It's Home, BIG thanks t Lee at SRD for giving it the

once over and sorting a few bits out! It was a very greasy drive home and any amount of boost in the cold damp conditions provoked instant wheel spin :scare:

 

I was surprised at the lightness and precision of the overall feel and steering as I expected the car to feel a lot heavier! It's now had a good clean and is in amazing condition for a 17 year old car!

 

There is life after the R34 and at a fraction of the cost !

Congratulations on your purchase.

 

Looks like you were lucky buying it blinds, could have been an expensive mistake.

 

A more track focus look great in red, but I would be losing the big white sticker off the back.

 

Unless your getting some sort of royalties acting as a mobile bilboard ;)

 

Enjoy.
