scott87 Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 The car starts and runs. So that's one good thing i guess. My budget at the moment is £3000 as that's what i have put to one side. I could possibly however increase slightly if need be. Im gonna now wait for whifbitz to get back to me with an estimate and then go from there Oh and im based in Bracknell, but the supra is currently with Horsham developments in chievely, 30mins away. If you were to do the work yourself or with the help of someone from here rather than a garage if you chose to. That budget would be seriously more than enough. I had a much bigger list of things i did to mine when i bought it and my total spend (on new parts) was £1300. But i paid zero labour.

mattdavies Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 I am willing to help out and am only in Crowthorne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Wilson Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 I could sort that out if you aren't in a rush. If you want to give me a bell tomorrow, that's fine. Nothing TOO bad there, and your budget should cover it if the engine and box are basically sound. Number is in my sig. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Budz86 Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 As lots of others have said mate, nothing on that list looks too bad, even gearbox seals are pretty easy. Parts shouldn't be too bad cost wise either, just keep an eye on the for sale section and ring and few of the traders for the oem bits. Worry for me would be the misfire as that could be anything. Start with a compression and leak down test before anything else and post the results here, then make and decision. Project's were never meant to be done overnight!

supra_24 Posted April 14, 2014 Author Share Posted April 14, 2014 Cheers guys, appreciate your help. What i will do, is see what whifbifz have to say and then get back to you guys on this. Only issue is i don't really have the space at my parents house to undertake the work Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fizzy T Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 It all looks like fairly simple fixes really, just looks daunting if you don't have the technical know how to sort it yourself or the space. I'm just up the M4 in Thatcham near Reading so if you ever have it in Bracknell and need a hand sorting something I'll pop over, You've already had the same offer from MattDavies too so that's Two Matt's willing to lend a hand Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supra_24 Posted April 14, 2014 Author Share Posted April 14, 2014 Cheers buddy, that puts my mind at ease. At least now i know the issues can be resolved without spending too much more than my given budget. Also i really do appreciate all the help offered so far by you guys. I will definitely be in contact for advice with the supra. I assure you though that i am going ahead with this project now and this car will be made road worthy by years end Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The car is being transported to Whifbitz either tomorrow or Thursday this week, so that they can investigate and start work on it Been in talks with Paul at Whifbitz and he reckons it sounds worse than it is and that most of the issues listed should be simple fixes.
