dr_jekyll Posted September 24, 2010 Share Posted September 24, 2010 i did it all myself. the only thing i didnt do was map the emanage , ryan g did this. make sure you get a pro to map yours as its probably the most important part of the whole build Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wallis Posted September 24, 2010 Share Posted September 24, 2010 So let me get this right, you have and own an n/a that u know is a solid, good car that would be ideal for a Single turbo conversion yeah? And instead your going to buy another n/a that u probably know nothing about and do the single conversion on that? Alarm bells are ringing to me, unless u are having a full engine rebuild and know the gear box and running gear is sound I think your mad mate.....lol not to mention how hard it is to sell cars at the moment never mind supras, I would just get a cheap £300 run about while your car was being done and save your money buddy, u will prob find loads of hidden/extra costs anyways when u go single! But it's each to there own and only my spin in things, all the best with the build fella :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
w41k3r Posted September 24, 2010 Author Share Posted September 24, 2010 mr wallis good point of view but in my honest opinion when you buy any car its just luck if you get a good one my supra had only 55 thou on when i bought it and ive replaced allmost everything others with more mileage have barely touched theres I will be swapping parts over like my brakes suspension ect tbh if you have a good car it will sell regardless of time this idea is only for zero down time and as previously said im in no rush to get it done but i dont want to be stuck in a lesser car for months im an arse i know Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
