dude Posted June 13, 2011 Share Posted June 13, 2011 If you build it you KNOW whats been done and anyone with money can go buy a fast car, even if you don't have the know how you can still research and input into the build etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest supra_man Posted June 13, 2011 Share Posted June 13, 2011 I realise how much of a massive noob I'm being, but i thought all supras were 3.0ltr? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaz6002 Posted June 13, 2011 Share Posted June 13, 2011 I realise how much of a massive noob I'm being, but i thought all supras were 3.0ltr? As standard they are, but there are ways of increasing displacement Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crouch Posted June 13, 2011 Share Posted June 13, 2011 Did you have an idea that its going to cost this from the start, or was it a case of costs spiraling out due to unforseen stuff? And also given the chance to start again from stracth would you have bought one thats already built i.e the envy supra, jays supra etc. I had an idea how much it was going to cost to build my project then i came against issues that are causing problems! main problem is tuners make these high end parts shiney and i can't help myself! That of course is down to me and can't say it was unforseen just i'm weak! lol Spent 9K in 8 months and i'm still about 10k plus from the engine being ready to put together even! After that theres the rest as stated drive shafts,diff,prop,roll cage,wider wheels,swap from AEM EMS to Syvecs and the list goes on and on! Would i buy one ready to roll....no! it would not be mine like buying a Ferrari nice motor but nothing to do with you really. Also when it comes to tuned cars you never know theres always some tyre kicker chav that says "it's mint man good for 1500hp and 1000 shot of nos and you'll hit 350mph in 4.6 seconds man" Don't think so son! It's gona skin me for a year plus to do it right but it will be quality at the end and more importantly it will be truly "MY" supra. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
