JasonR24 Posted November 26, 2013 Share Posted November 26, 2013 Seen this. Didn't share as the guy says its got bodywork issues and looking at the price I'd guess its rotted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
st3ven1 Posted November 26, 2013 Share Posted November 26, 2013 Seen this. Didn't share as the guy says its got bodywork issues and looking at the price I'd guess its rotted Look at the front of the car, it's clearly had a smash. Nothing lines up, look at the bonnet shut lines, front wings/door shut line and the state of the front bumper. Could make a good drift car though at the right price if it's a SZ-R.

Tom Posted November 26, 2013 Author Share Posted November 26, 2013 Could make a good drift car though at the right price if it's a SZ-R. exactly, but what more do you want for £1k, its perfect for drift/track use Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
st3ven1 Posted November 26, 2013 Share Posted November 26, 2013 75000 miles :rlol: It's 20 years old and both the steering wheel and carpets are worn through. Same old story again and again with the majority of supras now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WaLKeRR Posted November 26, 2013 Share Posted November 26, 2013 Surely you could break that for parts and make the 1100 back? and maybe some more? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cipriani Posted November 26, 2013 Share Posted November 26, 2013 I saw this topic and just went to look at it to see what the story was. It is rough very rough, front end is almost warped and alloy bonnet has been painted badly clearly following a crash. Tracking is 90 degrees out and clicks n bangs when near full lock, terrible noises from the rear when going over speed bumps and is mis firing. To top it off drivers sill is rotten and bootlid is also showing early signs of corrosion as is a few other areas like the door shuts etc. he said 1k was his lowest price, I wouldn't buy it but I think it's worth 600 to break for maybe 800 as it's standard with almost every part worn badly, even the wheels are poor. An honest verdict Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cipriani Posted November 26, 2013 Share Posted November 26, 2013 Haha! I got the feeling the guy bought it smashed with intention to restore it. Somewhere along the line he has realised its bent I think as when I mentioned measuring the wheelbase his face dropped and started acting nervously. He did say a guy was making the 5 and a half hour drive from Northumberland to buy it, hope it's not to dark when he gets there :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cipriani Posted November 26, 2013 Share Posted November 26, 2013 It was in Kemnay Aberdeenshire. I'm actually working on the power lines near Kintore so was only a 10 minute drive from site. Glad I had a look at it any supra at that price is worth a shout but this was in my opinion to far gone, and most likely has a bent chassis.

chainy Posted November 26, 2013 Share Posted November 26, 2013 Is this the same motor?
