Up for sale I have my much loved 1995 uk spec single turbo supra. It's been in my ownership for 4 years, but previous to that, owned by a good friend of mine for 10years. So I've known the car for many years, and is a very well cared for example. Its undergone allot of work in my ownership, including extensive engine rebuild, single turbo conversion and underside restoration. Amongst many other things along the way.

 

This is a genuine UK car, with original matching engine and transmission, only 600 uk supras where produced, and this is 1 of around 200 believed to be left on the road.Those who don't know, the uk models where the highest specd supra, leaving the factory with many extras. Including larger brakes, wheels and differential. Rear diff cooler, active spoiler, improved traction control, abs, and another 50bhp! The list goes on. I'm sure most of you on here know all of this already, but if your unsure, please do some research to better your understanding.

 

As time has passed, this particular example has lost some of it's original uk features as you can tell. The active front spoiler was removed to make way for a front mounted intercooler, as was the AC. The front bumper was removed to delete the uk headlight washers, which some find intrusive. But it still retains things like rear diff cooler, full heated black leather, uk traction and abs, glass headlights, cruise control. It's original colour was 199 silver, it's now painted in whats called Aqua marine blue. To a very high standard I might add.

Paint is in good condition with only a few discreet areas which may require little attention in the future, but minor.

 

Early this year, the car was fully stripped underneath, baring the front subframe, to carry out restoration work. This included full underbody corrosion treatment. Any areas of surface rust, which actually very minor, was taken back, treated, primed, painted and then fully Shultzed (underbody coating) with a gun. Pictures where taken throughout the process, so you can see it's not hiding anything more serious. Sills etc are in perfect order. Never welded.

 

When putting back together, it had the following new genuine parts : All new brake lines, fuel lines and filter, diff bushes, rear wheel bearings, rear brakes.

Everything was cleaned and painted along the way and the underside is now in very good order. All pics and invoices to support this.

 

When I purchased the car in 2015, it had covered around 155k miles, and was due a good engine overhaul. So I removed vehicle from the road to carry out a full engine build.

The car drives very nicely with no unwanted notices as expected. It pulls well through all gears.

To extract the most from the single turbo setup, all that's needed is a choice of mapable ecu, fit the larger injectors and have it mapped. This setup would happily see 600bhp mark. The only reason I've not done this yet, is because I wanted a full syvecs setup. It was next on my list but have been happy with the way she performs on the stock ecu. The air/fuel ratios all good. And only run the car on around 1.2bar. Plenty more potential.

 

The service history is very good from 2006. The original service book has been misplaced before my ownership so I have no proof of history before 2006. It has only been serviced at Toyota main dealer or Toyota specialist since 2006, and all Mot's have also been carried out at Toyota since 2006. Theres only a couple of gaps in service book where car has been off road or not used.

There is a huge categorised folder of paperwork/receipts/history to back up all of the work. And many pictures.

 

Only negatives:

Few small discrete areas on paint which may require correction to make perfect.

Stone chip in centre of windscreen.

Coilovers could do with painting as green paint is peeling.

 

Theres probably things I've missed, but will add as I remember. The only reason I'm selling is due to business expansion. Be absolutely gutted to see it go.

Any questions please ask.

Happy to take potential buyers out for a road test but obviously with me driving unless insurance can be proved and cash is in my hand.

 

 

PRICE: £19995

 

Car is located in Cornwall, UK.
