  1. Thank you very much! She will be taken very good care off :-) No problem on using the photographs, you can use all of them if you want. My friend had a RHD Skyline which was a blast to drive even though we use LHD cars here. There was no issues to drive, but it took some time to get used to.
  2. From Infernos own sale add: Using the prices listed below, the value of the car is at least $215,000. In fact, it is probably more than this given that many of the items below do not have prices as I did not have the receipts for everything on my computer at the time of writing this. Also, if you consider the increase in prices for many Supra parts, as well as the fact that many of these have been discontinued (both aftermarket and factory parts), it is once again probably an underestimate.
  3. Looks fantastic! Like fresh out of a Toyota box!
  4. They are indeed getting more and more rare. This is a USDM import and I am the third owner after the import so price on that I do not know. I payed 60k Euros for the car with 34k miles on the clock. I am sure you will find your dream car very soon :-)
  5. Pretty colours outside this autumn so I wanted to try a take some pictures. This is one of the better ones I got.
  6. I just recently went from an S2000 to a Supra, actually owning both for a short time before the S2000 sold. I had the AP1 for two years and enjoyed it a lot, very fun to drive with the spirited motor and the tightest gearbox ever made. Required only regular maintenance and was extremely easy to work on. I even changed the soft top myself in one day :-) It's much smaller then the Supra and there is little space in the cabin and trunk. I haven't tracked my cars, but the Supra is way better when it comes to power and torque. I would also say the Supra is WAY better to daily drive or drive long trips. The S2000 also has an insane clutch buzz that is normal on the cars, but It drove me nuts.... If you decide to check it out you could check the following: - Water in the trunk where the spare tire is - Water behind seats (the soft top drains are behind the seats). Also see if you see mold there. - They are prone to rock chips on the arches behind the front wheels. - Clutch buzz. When you let of the throttle at 4-5k rpm listen if there are any vibrations or buzzing sounds. Some cars have more noise then the others, it's normal but very annoying! Also bear in mind unless it has an hardtop you shouldn't park it on the streets as it only takes a knife to open the top. And Airbags/seats are worth more then the car Some pictures :-)
  7. Haha, I wish! I doubt that. I am pretty sure it's comming from the engine compartment. Can the manifold crack and make any weird sounds?
  8. I have a weird noise that I have trouble diagnosing. Most noticeable in first and second gear when 70-100% throttle at 2-4k rpm. It's like a Metal squeakyish sound similar to what a spring mattress/couch makes. Only thing that comes to mind is that I have no catalytic converters on the car and instead have a straight test pipe without and flex-joints. Other then that I have no clue. Heatshield on stock turbos is solid so it's not that either.
  9. Thank you! Which means that my steel blades turbos should be good to go :-) I'll invest in a FCD this winter.
  10. Thank you mate, I am enjoying it quite a lot! :-D
  11. Looks stunning as always!
  12. Really like it to be honest! Looks like the car wants to kill you
  13. Darn : o May I ask how much they are now?
  14. Thank you Shane :-) The Volks will be getting refurbished this winter when the car is in storage and a new set of tires on all four corners.
  15. I am hitting fuel cut, so I should probably get a FCD then to avoid any engine damage. Thank you for the help, much appreciated mate :-)
  16. I am just afraid it's to high. Should I be safe with that and just get a FCD as last mod?
  17. Got myself a Defi boost gauge which I mounted inside my broken right air vent, and I must admit it fits quite nicely. Almost like it was stock :-) I do have one issue though, whenever I floor it I go past 1 bar and I peak at 1.2. I am not 100% sure on what to do next and was hoping to get some help. 1. Drive it like it is and get a FCD? 2. Restrictor ring in exhaust? Bear in mind this is a US spec and I shouldn't need one according to the BPU article on this site. 3. Boost Controller (I do not wish to put this in my car unless it's absolutely necessary, due to MOTs.
  18. Very nice how the engine and car turned out!
  19. Googled around on my VIN and stumbled across this :-) http://www.vipimports.com/Car-Toyota-22/Supra-22.htm

    Supra valuations

    I own a 93 USDM TT6 which I payed £50k for. Some due to Norwegian taxes, but it's still a very high amount for a stock car. Stock and low miles was the biggest factor when I bought mine as well.
  21. It's linked from mobile hence the bad quality, searched it up on the computer and it looks great!
  22. I certainly like where this is going! Will be watching this
  23. Exact same problem on my Supe. 1 minute with a soldering iron and everything was good again :-)
