Henk Posted January 18, 2007 Share Posted January 18, 2007 Hi all, I know some of you can remember just how exciting it was to receive your first "proper" pictures of the car you bought at auction. Well I am giddy like a school boy! Check out the link in my signature, garage full of Japan Dockside photos now. Pardon the dusty interior, it has been sitting in Japan "Unloved" for a month..... This waiting is killing me! I think I may keep the wheels, I know 17" alloys are considered small and all but I like the look of them. Just had to tell everyone.... can't stop smiling and I've not even sat in it yet! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snooze Posted January 18, 2007 Share Posted January 18, 2007 Nice one - someone else to wave to in Guildford when it's here! Did you find out whether it would safely get onto your drive at home without grounding? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spidermonkey Posted January 18, 2007 Share Posted January 18, 2007 hated waiting for mine too, but once you get it, it will all be worth it - have fun Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Henk Posted January 18, 2007 Author Share Posted January 18, 2007 Nice one - someone else to wave to in Guildford when it's here! Did you find out whether it would safely get onto your drive at home without grounding? I measured my current Peugeot Coupe's height all round and am "in discussion" with Jurgen on which skirts etc. I could go for that leave the necessary clearance. As standard it will go up the ramp fine, it's after all just a simple mathematical problem We'll figure it out I hope! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geo Posted January 18, 2007 Share Posted January 18, 2007 Nice car mate, bet you can wait to get a shot of her. Yup i got mine from Jurgen 2. He does bring over some cracking cars. The Man, The Myth, The Legend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike B Posted January 18, 2007 Share Posted January 18, 2007 Cracking condition for a '93 - the engine bay looks genuine and pristine.. Even the interior - cruise control too.. well done! Jurgen does find some good cars... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dangerous brain Posted January 18, 2007 Share Posted January 18, 2007 17" is well known to actually be the best wheel size for a supras handling. Just ask chris wilson about putting 18"s on if you fancy an earbashing I would start saving for some new rubber though. Jap cars from Japan don't come with incredible rubber (50mph limit, no parking, and low miles per year = no requirement for super duper tyres. £600 should cover you for excellent UK road rubber, goodyear eagle F1 GSD03's are fully endorsed by alot of the forums members. Some of the Falken range is acceptable also. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Henk Posted January 19, 2007 Author Share Posted January 19, 2007 Yer tyres is on my list of "To-Do's" well actually it's on Jurgen's list When the car is over we can see what sizes will fit. I'm leaving the car pretty much stock to start with until I get used to it and then I can ask all those same questions on the forum you've all answered a zillion times Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveR Posted January 19, 2007 Share Posted January 19, 2007 I remember when Jurgen sent me my set of photos similar to that lot, it's an amazing feeling thinking "I own that" The wait is an absolute killer, but try to enjoy it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rayman Posted January 19, 2007 Share Posted January 19, 2007 Nice one henk, good choice going for the turbo. I can recommend the Dunlops that Jurgen got on mine SP or something when the time comes, loads of grip, good price too!. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
