Kranz Posted October 21, 2006 Share Posted October 21, 2006 Hi Kam. The NA is built on the same virtually indestructable base thet the turbo is built on, so there should be no problems with the engine. Most problems result from accident damage and bent bodywork giving a bad ride. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gaz1 Posted October 21, 2006 Share Posted October 21, 2006 i think the discs are the same, if you give chris wilson a ring(the guy selling them) he will put you on the right track Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ian R Posted October 22, 2006 Share Posted October 22, 2006 Welcome. Make sure the instrument panels light up when you turn the ignition on some people will disconnect the warning lights to hide problems Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Homer Posted October 22, 2006 Share Posted October 22, 2006 You're in the right area, there are a hell of a lot of Supra owners in the Thames valley. By far the best advice I can offer is to have someone experienced from the club go along with you to your viewings. They will know what to look out for and should be able to spot a problem a mile off. I work in Slough once a week so feel free to PM if you want a 2nd opinion on a car.

CJ Posted October 22, 2006 Share Posted October 22, 2006 still looking for gz aerotop or uk tt anybody got any search tips wifes gonna spend my money if i dont find one soon tabs They are out there but sometimes command a premium. Do you have a budget in mind? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest tabs Posted October 22, 2006 Share Posted October 22, 2006 8k plus for right car Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CJ Posted October 22, 2006 Share Posted October 22, 2006 8k plus for right car In all probablility, you are going to struggle to get a "nice" UK car for 8k and will more than likely have to put another 2k on that. A GZ aerotop will also cost you a bit more than 8k but you may be lucky enough to pick up a high mileage example for that. I am currently talking to a seller about a nice Silver GZ aerotop with lowish miles and some nice mods but that is going to be selling for closer to 9k.
