  1. PM'd! Will definitely take these if they're an improvement on the standard 2/1 NA setup (finding it very hard to tell their size from pics).
  2. Maybe not a younger model but she'd probably dump me for a TT6!
  3. My girlfriend sent me some photos of a white TT parked in Chippenham, said she had a quick chat with the owner and was wondering if it was anybody on here?
  4. https://www.carthrottle.com/post/it-looks-like-the-new-toyota-supra-will-be-automatic-only/
  5. Said for a long time this is the only car I'd trade the Supra for. Would definitely make a perfect second car! Would love to hear some thoughts on this. Just worried the lack of oomph would quickly get annoying.
  6. I'll never understand how Corbyn can devote his entire political life to defending and empowering the working class, only to be quite so resented by it. Same with Bernie, the two of them are waving their arms around crying for some justice for the poorer regions of their countries, yet cheap political tactics consistently resonate deeper within the people they're trying to help the most? Both the Tories and Trump should be everything the working class despises, but Murdoch never fails to convince them otherwise. I really don't get it.
  7. For a second I thought you'd finally found your car Nicky!
  8. Every day... You can only struggle to follow a VW Golf off the lights so many times.
  9. This recently went for £9,000? Good lord.... So if this is now expected to fetch £13k ish, would an NA-5 with a TT swap be worth something in a similar region? Seems a bit much (but £9,000 seems way too cheap).
  10. That looks exceptional, exactly what I'd be going for. Unfortunately don't have the equipment or a garage to give it a full top-to-bottom going over. Might have to retire it for a week over the summer and "borrow" a garage. Thanks for the help!
  11. Goddamn... opening that link took the wind out of me. What a perfect car. Still an obscene amount of money though!
  12. "IF YOUR OF". Kinda undermines their argument a bit. Is it true that the UK spec had 46 more bhp? I thought that was just down to Japanese factories downplaying their output?
  13. Really nice to see some lovely NA's. Cool to see a few of them at shows too, I must admit I've thought in the past that taking mine would be a bit daft, lining it up next to all the beautifully built monsters we normally see. This has definitely given me something to think about for the summer. Currently going back and fourth about plans for NA-T but at my age it's boiling down to that or a housing deposit (and the inevitable W58 headaches) Mine isn't anything particularly special, very clean exterior and stock under the bonnet (except a custom exhaust system from M-Tech, which is only 2.5" and single decat). Only slightly unique thing is the odometer reads 30k miles, it's verified back to 2002 but who knows how legitimate this is, seems unusual it would have only covered a couple thousands miles in Japan, engine bay looks very clean compared to most though. Would a paint correction be enough to get that nice deep black shine many of yours have? Or would I be looking at a respray? No swirls or anything, just slightly faded colour (even with a full polish).
  14. The photographers watch that spot because it's a notoriously rough corner I thought, not the other way around?
  15. I thought this was kinda in-line for how clean it is? I swear 3 NA-5's just got posted for £8k+? Don't really see any NA's going for less than £5k anymore, or maybe I'm just not noticing.
  16. Was wondering if ol' Grossie would pop up on these forums eventually. He's a bit of a drama magnet with a dodgy history in the scene (... a friend tells me), what pisses me off the most is I adored the Supra he got. Lovely rare colour, completely untouched, 1 owner and 26k miles, and he whacks a black paint job on it and a veilside kit, oh and a halfords-special 1k sound "install"? Not to mention the "3.0 Twin Turbo" sticker on the back... In the 6 months leading up to actually buying he would talk continuously about it on his stream, christ some of the misinformation he was blurting out... Tried passing on a bit of knowledge some members shared with me while I was searching, he was just having none of it. Tough bloke to talk to. Don't wanna be harsh on the guy, his attitude is just a bit grating.
  17. I have a very vague memory of seeing this (or another in a similar colour) was crashed, would have likely ended up at Kerons so perhaps worth asking.
  18. Youtube comments sections always hurt a bit, on this video though, I had to lie down after reading. But yeah, the GT3 vid brought on mad nostalgia.
  19. Sorry yes, didn't mean to implicate they'd messed around with it, previous owner before RC seemed lovely and it looks far too clean to be a candidate for "the Kustoms treatment". Great looking car.
  20. Didn't this one get snapped up by Restless Kustoms a couple of months back?
  21. Is the picture with your finger in it pointing to the stone chip? Struggling to spot it. Edit: Had to withdraw offer, I didn't understand the P/X! GLWS
  22. Do many people here go but not bring their Supras?
  23. Mate I was going to ask you the same thing. Did find a thread about them a few months back but I've since forgotten. Edit: They're knock-off Rota GTLM's, can't remember the name though. How did you fix the lacquer falling apart/corroding?
