That's cool, ended up swapping my golf and a set of wheels for mine, 80 thou on it. How do you cream 350bhp out of a na? Any advice on getting more bhp for less £££ would be appreciated :)

 

If your going by Graham's sig then it was part of a wind up ages ago iirc. There's not alot you can do power wise without spending a good amount going NA-T, TT or V8.

 

Good buy though dude :thumbs:

BHP for less £££ on an NA? Not possible fella. If you wanted power, you should have saved more and gotten yourself a TT.

The only way to get decent power from an NA is either to go NA-t or a TT transplant. Either will cost in the region of £3k.

 

However, am I right in thinking you got a supra, with a problem you are not sure of? If its clutch or gearbox related, you may find a fair outgoing coming your way soon.

 

Hopefully its something cheap and simple, but unfortunately with these cars, more often than not, it's not :(

How would I go about turboing? Fit one to my na or buy a TT lump? One big turbo is better than a TT I've heard... Is this right?

 

If its a TT-single then yes, otherwise no one would do it ;)

But an NA-t will generally push out around the same as a stock TT.

there are exceptions, but they tend to have a fair amount put into them for it.

Well as you have already bought it, you want to here this, but power wise, you are pretty much stuck with what you have without some proper money spent

 

Buster in Ashburton is just about to finish his NA-T and funny enough I am about to talk to him about having a Mini Meet at his mates barn to put my Coilovers on, so I am sure you would be welcome to come along

 

Just need to speak to him and check the date first

 

A few things that you can do is a good service, surprising how that helps, decat and Standard Airbox if you have not got one on it (standard is thought to be better than aftermarket induction on a Supra)

 

Funny enough I have one for sale with a Blitz panel filter in it, so if you need it, I could bring it to Ashburton and we could fit, only takes 10 mins

 

As for your noisy clutch, sounds like the release bearing has had it, did you not notice it on the test drive

 

If you can get to the meet at Ashburton (when we arrange it) I sure somone will have a good look over the car for you

Yeah I'm up for meeting. When and where? I'm new to forums so can someone tell me how to post things on the wanted parts forum and how to pm people. Need a new cat... Will de-cat typically pass emissions?

 

You need to pay your £10 membership to post wanted and for sale ads on the forum.

Some NA's pass without cats. Keep one handy just in case the worst happens and it fails.
