Guest supra_syked Posted December 8, 2005 Share Posted December 8, 2005 Hey guys, I've just bought myself a: Supra 1995. Non-Turbo 3 Litre 6 Cylinder. Bilsten Shockies with Tein Lowered Springs. 2 Pce Works Wheels 18" x 9" front and 18"x10" on the rear HKS Pod Filter and Air intake. 5Zigen Stainless Steel Mandrel Bend Exhaust System. As i am only 19 my insurance sucks. So turbo is out of the question until 25 basically. Can i do my car up as a N/A tuned car and still get good performance out of it? And if i can what kind of parts should i be buying to do so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darren Posted December 8, 2005 Share Posted December 8, 2005 And if i can what kind of parts should i be buying to do so. A turbo kit from Vortex could be a good place to start to get good performance!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Search for 'insurance' on here, you'll find almost every thread on the subject will include mention of the fact that the UK TT is cheaper than the normally aspirated on insurance!!! Problem is finding a nice UK in the spec you want!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Problem is finding a nice UK in the spec you want!! I'm afraid this chap is in Brisbane, Australia! Not sure what insurance is like over there or if the N/A was released as a legit model in Australia. Maybe insurance is cheaper on that over there. Supra_Skyed, welcome top the club mate and congrats on the car. You're lucky to have a Sup at 19. I had a Vauxhall Nova 1.3 SR - and I still thought I was the bollocks! Anyway....... :needspic: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tbourner Posted December 8, 2005 Share Posted December 8, 2005 I didn't think oz had it any different to here TBH! Probably just haven't got my thinking brain in today! Ooh yes pics, wondered when someone would post that smilie! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Faye Posted December 8, 2005 Share Posted December 8, 2005 I didn't think oz had it any different to here TBH! Probably just haven't got my thinking brain in today! They'd have it differently from the point of view that you mentioned getting a UK spec - that'd be in import for them too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daston Posted December 8, 2005 Share Posted December 8, 2005 well 225bhp isn't to be sniffed at the N/A soop is still a capable sports car, just cant be tuned as much as a TT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hogmaw Posted December 8, 2005 Share Posted December 8, 2005 If I had a Supra when I was 19 I probably wouldn't have lived long enough to be here now so be careful m8 there is a lot of power in them wheels. I do envy you though, there's no speed limit in the outback, right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gazzawu Posted December 8, 2005 Share Posted December 8, 2005 ive had my car since i was 19 too. yep insurance sucks. by the way i was at brisbane in july for 3wks. pretty nice place. the gold coast must be buzzing just now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest supra_syked Posted December 9, 2005 Share Posted December 9, 2005 Yeh having a supra at 19 is awesome. The power it has is mad. If i turbo it my insurance goes sky high because of my age. And Gazzawu, yeh mate the goldie is goin off... well was the last couple of weeks... some mad times down there. Anyway fellas if you guys have any suggestions for parts for the new car please let me know. I want to keep it N/A for now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
