  1. Thanks all for the interest - we have found a new home for the car pending collection.
  2. Hard to tell without stripping it down, but it does need attention.
  3. *** Sold awaiting collection *** Make: Toyota Model: Supra SZ auto Year: 1993 Facelift: no Mileage: 162,000 Km (101,000 miles) MOT remaining: Aug 2021 Service history: Some history available - car has been with the current owner for 12 years Car's location: Belfast, Northern Ireland - delivery to the UK possible (just ask) Modifications: 17" alloys Bluetooth touchscreen head unit, sony door speakers Veilside style copycat front bumper, skirts and rear spats Rear 20mm spacers (double bolt, not dangerous long bolt type) Induction kit Good bits: Just through MoT New tyres all round, battery, plugs, timing belt kit, aux belt, crank pulley, water pump, rear shocks, oil and filters. Drives smoothly but firm, as it should with no rattles, knocks. Standard and complete throughout apart from bodykit, wheels, stereo Upgraded 17" alloys, spaced at rear to fill arches. Touchscreen bluetooth stereo, Sony door speakers. Bad bits: Slight bubbling as usual around bottom of rear windscreen Small rust mark above driver's door on roof Larger rust patch at bottom of driver's side A pillar Paint on bodykit starting to bubble - skirts and front bumper would benefit from being taken down and painted This is an ideal project car, easily put back to standard or would make an ideal NA-T or NA-TT project car with it's early non-VVTi engine. I would love to do this, but sadly have other projects that demand my attention more. PRICE Nominal price £7000, but reasonable offers are invited. Due to Covid-19, viewing is restricted to serious buyers only. Tyre kickers and silly offers not welcome. ALL PHOTOS: https://photos.app.goo.gl/1a3U23uxVME7ooDV9
  4. ...and for your Supra-loving delight!
  5. Would you be interested in a 93 NA Auto with a fairly straight body?
  6. The front bumper, skirts and boot lid are the worst bits about the car. I don't think they were primed properly before painting, however these are also the easiest bits to remove and paint properly. The paint on the rest of the car is good with no swirls and very few scratches, whoever mixed it has clearly added quite a bit of blue which comes through beautifully in reflections at night time. I would never have noticed without bringing the shine back the paintwork. I'll try and get some better photos to show off the blue in the paint.
  7. We'll that's the car ready for sale now. I spent the weekend going over it with the machine polisher and what a result! Split the headlights again to re-seal them properly - was so much easier after they'd been heated in the oven for 5mins - just had to make sure the other half didn't see them in her oven
  8. Started to paint the spoiler today. Got some paint mixed up to match the darker shade of 199 silver a previous owner decided to paint her with (badly). The car really needs a full respray, but I'm running out of time and budget, and the new owner will want to do it their way, with the colour they want. Starting to think about putting it up for sale. Still no idea of values but may welcome offers and let the market decide. Would like to sell it to a Supra fan and be able to see what they do with it :-)
  9. Rear shocks Were a doddle to change, used a £20 screwfix HIlka spring compressor which was safe to use on the soft rear springs. Handling is good now with no rattles, knocking etc. The old (black) and the new (yellow Bilsteins off a UK car): Front wheel alignment means it is much more settled on the straights and handling confidence inspiring. Looks well with the OEM spoiler and spaced rears
  10. Surely if you wanted top dollar for the mirrors you'd have them in immaculate condition? And where is the blue Tiffany style box?
  11. Aw man, that's a sound no-one wants to hear. Hold on bud, you'll get it sorted eventually. Rooting for you too!
  12. When I was driving the car to/from the MoT centre, I noticed the back end was really quite bouncy - it passed on the rear suspension but the tester advised me it was only marginal. So, I've a couple of used Bilstein B6 shocks on the way - looks dead easy to change the rear struts. Also splashed out on a pair of 20mm spacers to bring the rears out to the wide bodykit (not the deadly cheapo long bolt type)
