  1. Wow Faye!! Just looking at your car!! Looks stunning!! Are those seats standard!?? Very nice..... & I like the aerotop too!! COuld be a good option!! Alot more reasonable insurance too!??
  2. No no thats cool..... I know you wont necesarily see the comparison but my car is very small & light & worth about 170-180bhp!! SO its fairly nippy too... but I want alot faster & Im not sure a na car would be that much quicker than my SOl... Or maybe Im wrong!?? & I think you're right about the Zed!! I kinda ruled that one out a while ago!! Other reliable options for decent power I guess are the 200 sx s14a & maybe another MR2!!?? Not really sure what else fits the bill that I like!??
  3. Sorry Homer!! Time of month I think!! ahem,...... I dont think insurance should be too bad... Although Im assuming the TT is a group 20!?? Im in a better position with my insurance than I was a few years ago ;o)
  4. Ok 220-230ish!! & its quite a heavy car right!?? So thats not that great!! It really would have to be a TT wouldnt it!?? Hmmm I wonder how much my Granny is worth!??
  5. Ok sorry!! Clearly I am being a twat!
  6. Of course an S14a could be another source of power...... & very Mod-able too!! (in a non Max Power kinda way!!)
  7. As a genuine Q what power do the NA cars produce!?? I couldnt see figures in the FAQ's I have been looking at!??
  8. Thats all fair enough...... & I can take a joke, no problem....... The point that I was trying to make was that the Supra wasn't my first choice & so therefore am not gonna get straight into the position of saying oh ok I will spend 9 grand when I only intended spending 6-7...... There are many options out there & I was trying to get a bit of background before making a decision!! Thank you to those that offered advise.........
  9. Is it the way I type or something.... apologies for not checking typos before posting!!
  10. Dear god Homer!! Now suggesting Im some Chav Burburry wearing kid!! Im 29..... I have a good steady job & regular income!! I own my own place... I have a long term girlfirend & a genuine passion for Japanese cars.... I am currently researching my options within my budget to decide what the best & most enjoyable for me would be!! Previous cars include A Mazda Mx-3 V6 followed by a Honda Prelude 2.2 vtec, followed by an MR2 twin turbo, followed by a Nissan 200sx S-13, followed by a Honda Del Sol!!! Now I want power again as running costs arent such an issue!?? Can I stay on the forum now!?? How old are you!?? & do I pass the criterea!?
  11. Dela Soul..... Its cool Im just kidding!! I want big power but to be honest Im finding it slightly difficult to justy spending that sorta money!! Im just not sure....... I mean for 9grand I'd get a pretty hot RX7 I reckon!! But again reliability!!?? What sorta power are the NA cars kicking out!?? But then again... they're just not turbos are they!?? & for the record!! Im not a Max Power fan!! I have only ever driven Jap cars.......... So there!! phhhhrrrrp!!
  12. Haha possibly!! See it then judge........... Not the friendliest of forums this though eh!?? Are the majority of owners on here so Elitest!?? I wanna play!!
  13. Alright chillout!! I havent actually seen J Tuner magazine anywhere!! For your info also there will be a feature on quite an impressive Del Sol in the August issue.... Although Im sure you would turn your nose up at that!!??
  14. Ok guys thanks for the info so far!! Well a couple of comments in there I was expecting..... I will address in turn!! a Max Power!! In my defence my girlfriend bought it for me.... It is a Jap special & she bought it as a present which is kinda sweet really!! & to be fair the three Supras featured are awesome!! Secondly Search!! I knew Id get this which is why I apologised for being a newbie!! lol Anyway..... I know from what I read on here the Supra Auto is very good!! I have to admit Im one of the old school that usually insists on manual!! But Im all for trying this out which opens up my options right!?? ok not too worried if its aerotop or hard top!! I understand the hardtop is cheaper so may be a better option!! Although the aerotop in the Fast & the Furious was cool... go on tell me Im a muppet!! & definately the TT... No point in me having a Supra if its just for the looks is there!?? so... we know what Im after..... Budget wise I was hoping a little less moolah!! like 6 grand!! Shock horror!!
  15. Hey guys... Great forum!! I know us newbies can be a pain in the arse so I will try not to be too dumb!! Currently I have a Honda CRX Del Sol!! I have some money to spend & I was gonna spend it on mods for that!! Bodykit, performance mods & the like!! I then got to thinking that I could just sell the car & add the money together to buy a new one!! I would only ever buy Japanese so I came nack to RX7, 300 ZX & Supra!! RX7 Im informed will ruin me as Im not a rich playboy!! Although I think its gorgeous its probably unrealistic!! Im not too sure about the 300zx anymore... again, a monster of a car but I think begining to look dated!! So.... the Supra!! Gorgeous & a thought helped by this months Max Power!! So I have read up a little & it seems that reliability is good & performance is high!! Great!! So what next!! Well what can you guys tell me!?? What sorta price am I looking at!?? I doubt I could afford a newer one so would prob be looking around 92/93/94.... What could I expect to get around this age & what major problems might I find!? (if any)...... I also like styling mods such as bodykits & the like & have seen quite a few lovely examples on here!! SO can you point me in the right direction!! I just need to be sure that I want to do this rather than Mod my sweet little Sol!! Looking forward to your replies with thanks!! Scott
