  1. I've been thinking about this for a while, and I'm not so sure...
  2. Beautiful car mate! I love it when people pay attention to the engine bay and just keep a great car in excellent condition Nice work! I pick up my VVTI tiptronic from Jurgen in the next couple weeks too Keep up the good work!
  3. Completely agree about the more aggressive looking front with the Do-Luck, it's been my favourite front end for the Supra for about 5 or 6 years hah I just think the Do-Luck front end suits the car very well, like this one too, looks bloody delicious http://www.iphigento.com/media/blog/2010-11-29-vrac-6/file_20.jpg But yeah i can clearly see the trend at the moment on the forum is to go for a stock bodied car, and i'll certainly be going back to a completely stock body to start with, because it's very close to that at the minute anyway it will be easy to do, and i do like the look. I'll use it like that for a while and decide what i think will look best. Or see if i fancy a change after a while maybe, i don't know, time will tell....
  4. Wow, well that was pretty one sided haha To be fair i had been leaning slightly towards to the stock look as it is a lovely condition car. That yellow car is verryy pretty though imo And Brazil, i'm not sure what the alglow instrument cluster is but wrt the interior i'm going to be searching for Honda DC5 Integra seats in black, not sure what to do with the rears atm because i doubt they will be used. The wheels are probably going to take me a looonngggggg time to decide upon because if that's the only thing i'll be changing exterior wise i want to make sure i get them absolutely perfect! Any suggestions (and preferably pics too) for wheels for a stock Supra much appreciated As for suspension the chap at SRD recommended Tein Street Flex coilovers for roughly £900, so i'll probably go with those unless someone else has a good suggestion in that price bracket!
  5. Hey guys and girls, Just thought i would make my own thread on here as i will more than likely be posting a decent amount for the foreseeable future as i spend all my hard earned cash on my recent purchase. I joined this forum quite a few years ago when i originally bought a white n/a manual from a member on here. It was a lovely car but i never ended up driving it because soon after i bought it my 'job' didn't go so well for quite a while, so i ended up selling it to a guy from France who came and trailered it away. This was the n/a i owned: Anyway, over the past 6 weeks or so i'd been looking at the jap auctions, Pistonheads and this forum every day trying to find myself a nice white TT6 Supra in great condition. But just nothing was coming up that was even close to it to be honest. I ended up talking to Jurgen from JM-Imports (as many of us i do i have seen) And he had a beautiful stock (apart from the wheels) white TT with low miles coming over but it was a tiptronic. I thought about it for about a week and made him a few offers and we eventually agreed on a price and a deposit was put down The car landed in the UK 2 days ago and hopefully i'll be able to pick it up in about 2-3 weeks time!! Very excited right now haha I don't have many pictures i'm afraid as of yet but here are a few: https://fbcdn-sphotos-h-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-xpa1/t1.0-9/10419032_525779250859970_717781579213110093_n.jpg https://scontent-a-lhr.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-xpf1/t1.0-9/10460508_525779474193281_8769216620745544124_n.jpg https://fbcdn-sphotos-a-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-xpa1/t1.0-9/10455843_525884874182741_6610191633125382251_n.jpg Looking pretty mint underneath I haven't decided exactly which way to go with the car as of yet, i have 2 ideas in my head and they are completely worlds apart in terms of body styling lol The first is to keep it pretty much stock looking, remove the side skirts and rear spats keep it clean and just change the wheels and get some coilovers. Basically make it look like this: The second is to get a Do-Luck front and side skirts, with Trial rear, carbon TRD wing, ganadaor mirrors and 19" Rota grid drifts finished in matte purple (purple is my favourite colour and i think it would look pretty sweet) Basically exactly the same as this members car but in white and with different wheels: I really can't decide at the minute, and i don't need to right away either but your opinions would be appreciated! Either way next year i'll more than likely look for a manual gearbox to swap in unless i particularly like the tiptronic which i kinda think is unlikely at the minute but i'm not ruling it out! So just thought i'd say hi once again, as i was absent for so many years, and that i'll update with some more pictures when i pick the little beauty up at the start of July
  6. Wow, really clean and tidy car, very nice Sir
  7. Ahh great thanks, i hadn't even seen these for sale. I'll take a look
  8. I hope jazz doesn't mind me asking this in his thread but i don't see the point of starting a second thread when one about coilovers has only just been made I'm just wondering what u guys think are the best coilovers for purely street for around the £800 mark? So things like K-sport, D2, HSD and others in that price range. I don't want to spend a ton because i'm never going to track the car most likely, I just want a good ride quality for UK streets and small amount of body roll? Thanks
  9. Wow! That looks absolutely stunning, very good work
