Hello and welcome....take it easy out there....

 

Driving a Supra is like making love to a beautiful woman.

Take it slow and easy at first, learn what she likes and doesnt like, only get more adventurous when you get to know and trust each other more, building up momentum until she wants more and you want to give her more...

 

If you shag her brains out as soon as you get in, it will be over very fast.;)

A lot of people here use Silklene Pro-S 10w50 or 15w50. Valvolene or Royal purple is also good.

 

Don't use Mobil 1 (too thin) or generic synthetic oils (its generally crap and will only last a couple of 1k miles)

 

Make sure you change your fuel filter and ditch the HKS mushroom filter you mentioned in your other thread ;)

i was at the on sunday just gone with a couple of my mates one has a standed red rx7 and the other with a black mr2 turbo.

 

thanxs for the advise, and the welcomes

I was woundering if its was a bad time of year to be buying a rwd car but never mind:rolleyes:

 

Thats the best filter to get? been looking at an apexi one that looks nice.

Yeah, its looks nice but won't make much difference to the HKS one (apart from better filtering). A stock one will make the car behave much better as it has two cold air feeds. I haven't looked back since I switch from the Apexi to stock, the car is much better behaved when in traffic and there's no difference when at WOT. Its a bit quieter too
