  1. Nice to meet you too Lee - Awesome looking Supra you have after having a good nosey! Yeah the smile hasn't stopped yet, she has some character already though as she didn't want to play on the way home last night, started to misfire over 5k rpm on full boost, more than likely fouled plugs at a guess, just ordered some IK27's which i'm hoping cures the problem, will rip her apart at the weekend and investigate further! Trebor, based in Alvaston/Elvaston just off the A50
  2. Thanks for the comments guys! The BGW splits everybody. When I first bought the car from Japan I hated it, I was going to replace it ASAP! Over time waiting for the vehicle to come over t's grew on me and now I secretly love it lol! Will see how it goes over time, I'd really like a little boot lip spoiler, but see how we go!
  3. Hi Guys, Collected the Supra today from JM:D! Absolutely smitten by it, coming from a 400bhp GTR, this thing is just in a completely different world! It's effectively a full blown track car that handles & goes like a scalded cat! Spec list is pretty extensive, struggling to think of things to do it to it in the future, the chassis is immaculate and all suspension looks brand new, so the initial plan is to enjoy it for the summer and learn how to drive her in properly on track:). The Bodywork could do with a bit of a tidy up, potentially a new front bumper & Aluminium under tray! Engine bay will get some focus too! The clusters are all in white and have Bee Racing Supra embossed on to them, so i'm not sure if this was one of their own track cars once upon a time? Off to santa pod on the 20th just for a bit of a giggle, so if anybody is about come say hello! Just want to say a massive thanks to Jurgen and the Team, top job as always!!

Cheers, Harry
  4. I may pop along, get the car next weekend, so it'd be nice to give it it's first outing
  5. Hi Robin, No, afraid not, I work for Jaguar Land Rover within the Chassis department. Thanks for the welcomes chaps!
  6. Thanks Abz, Do you happen to know the diameter of the discs for the option brakes?
  7. Hi Guys, I've done a search but not had much luck. My Supra is on its way over from Japan and i'd like to replace the rear discs and pads after seeing this photo. Can you please confirm if this is the larger UK spec caliper on the car? Any help would be great, Harry
  8. Hi Chaps, Just thought i'd introduce myself on to the forums... My names Harry, 25, Automotive Engineer from Derby. I've just bought my first Supra through JM-Imports which arrives around May 15', I have a good relationship with Jurgen and bought a GTR through him before, Also a good friend of Andy Conroy (Suprafan72) who had the wangan supra originally. Previously owned a run of Japanese cars, bought from standard and modified myself. At 20 I had a 200sx, tastefully modified to around 270bhp for track use (not drift), then at 22 I bought myself an R33 GTR Vspec through JM, and modified this to around 400bhp which was enough for a 12.3@114mph 1/4mile. I sold the GTR at the start of 2014 so I could go travelling for a year through Asia & Australasia, i've now come back with a bit of a bug for a fast car again so decided on getting a Supra, always fancied one and thought why not? Attached are a few pics of my old Jap wagons. 200sx When I first got it; Before I sold it; R33 GTR Day I picked it up; After I'd finished with it I've gone a bit different this time and instead of buying the car standard, it's already modified with a lot of the parts to save some time and money. The car does need some attention to be perfect, so I will no doubt be trying to pick your guys brains on a few things. Spec of the Supra as far as I can tell... & a few pics 1995 Toyota Supra RZ 6spd 57,000kms Trust 6pot caliper ATS 2way LSD ATS carbon clutch Aragosta Coilovers Recaro SR 2 Sparco steering Wheel 900PS corresponding fuel system HKS TO4Z turbine kit Large intercooler Koyo high-capacity radiator F Con V.PRO (gold professional) HKS100 Ti high power muffler Gauges Galore Do Luck Body Kit Voltex GT Rear Spoiler 18" Works Meister 3pc Original plans are to get everything refreshed in terms of oils & fluids, and have all the suspension geometry set up correctly. From this, i'll be getting the car on the Dyno to see how it's running and if any amendments are required to make sure it's running safely, they will be addressed. Apart from this, an Interior needs to be sourced to put into the back and I'm still very undecided about the bodykit. For certain the Voltex rear spoiler will be sold in replacement for an OEM item, but as for the rest of the car, i'm currently 50/50 Anyway, looking forward to Supra Ownership and popping along to some track/drag days with you chaps. Cheers, Harry
