You know you want one lol

Lol I think I must have hit a full 70mph as well How did it look/sound as I pulled away? Any flames?

Great seeing everyone! I am glad I've finally got a car that can take me too and from a car meet! It was quite a novelty tonight

It looks rather dry outside to me, you might have to drive it after all

£10 pounds he's at a pancake eating competition before

My supra was a very capable car that started off life as bone stock then BPU AUTO, Small Single AUTO, BUILT single BL AUTO, BUILT Single ML Auto then 6 speed Built Single. The problem I always found was traction and it always being very lively, hence the 'winter driving' thread and even at BPU Auto I lost it many times and consider myself very luck as I didn't hurt anyone, myself or the car in that order! As being part of the club for the past 8 years I've seen many that haven't been so lucky! I realised after driving a few R33 / R34's that it was the next logically step as they handled pretty much as I want it to within my own skill set as a drive (no, I'm not a racing driver and simply will never have the car control of some i.e. Jamie and the like). For me the R34 gtr I had running quite a bit more HP than the Supra was is soooo much faster both off the line, cornering etc etc i.e. the way it grips and just has so much more usable power! As well as me being able to get the power down in the wet, unlike my Supra! I know for a fact that round a track I would be significantly quicker in the R34 to the Supra. The problem with the R34 (although mine now after mass expense is perfect!) is it no better in reliability terms when highly modified! The only difference is it costs way, way more for parts! The other problem with R34's and particularly mine is they are not a cruising car like the Supra was. I loved the Supra for just popping to the shops or a really long drive! For me it what my Supra was best at! It was in my book very cool, very relaxed and a nice car to drive about in! The R34 is a nightmare, too loud and totally uncivilized in comparison! The R34 is an excellent drivers car IMO. They're very RAW with awesome levels of grip and high speed control, I safely completed moves that I would just have not dreamed of in the Supra! The thing with R34 is so make them truly entertaining you need to modify them a bit like the Supra with most folk moving to BPU then Single. The problem then is they can be a pain in the rear with parts being very expensive! In the end after a year or so I just had, had enough of constantly spending cash on it and really I want a car that had much better manners. Having said all that I've been out in plenty of other R34 running 500ish hp and were totally civilised so I suppose its how much performance you want IMO sticking to around 500 gives you the best of both worlds. I'm sure there are many that would disagree and would rather be going slower in a RWD but having a more RAW experience. I will miss the R34 with the windows down, full high boost with an RB26, To4z, open screamer and flames spitting out an every change! Possibly the exciting thing ever lol All just IMO

Don't worry Plenty of pictures to follow and may be a couple of vids On a scale of 1 to 10 its a 100 honestly! The power delivery is instant and savage when you want it to be! The box is amazing coming to a bend and paddle shifting down with the ecu blipping the throttle to match the speed, with car in R R R mode the handling is flat, hard and grippy and then when the fun is over and you just want to cruise you have your integrated MFD with HD screen for DIVX/DVD, Sat NAV, phone, I was even stream spotify off my iPhone through the MFD and all the controls on the steering wheel work. Or just use the voice recognition I've said this before but its the best of my two favourite cars i.e. The comfort of the Supra and general nice place to (and then some) and the bonkers performance from my old 750hp R34 GTR V-Spec! Plus for me I've got business rate finance on it so I've got very low monthly's with a healthy deposit, the insurance is 6-700 pounds and damn thing was doing 28-30mpg on the motorway cruising back!!!! The R34 is an excellent drivers car IMO. They're very RAW with awesome levels of grip and high speed control, I safely completed moves that I would just have not dreamed of in the Supra! The thing with R34 is so make them truly entertaining you need to modify them a bit like the Supra with most folk moving to BPU then Single.

But I will miss windows down, full high boost with an RB26, To4z, open screamer and flames spitting out an every change! Possibly the exciting thing ever lol

Cheers matey, If I hadn't had a couple of beers I think i'd still be out Yep, don't think anyone else would

Cheers matey, can't wait for tomorrow How you getting on with yours? Have you gone Cobb and Y-pipe yet? Think it was the HD widescreen in the end that swung it with this one, but telling the wife I went over budget wasn't fun LOL

Still thinking about it, but problem is Ryan is a bit far and like the idea of being able to update my gearbox as the new release come out and do a clutch re-learn and such Are you still on a access port? Or have you move across?

Wow they look awesome Rather have an Access port thought
