Andrew K Posted April 14, 2015 Share Posted April 14, 2015 I know how you must be feeling mate and I'm similar, only difference is I have my supra to drive around in still until the work starts. The wait will all be worth it Looking forward to the updates also when they come. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"No." "Oh okay..." *later that same day* "Is it done yet?" :rofl: haha yer but its daily and theirs nothing I can do I know that it isn't simple just hate waiting, If i could do it my self id love to but no room ( as we don't have a suitable drive but when it is up and running a base map/mapped il be happy as i can look at the housing market with the misses and have good place to store the car ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hitbox Junkie Posted June 28, 2015 Author Share Posted June 28, 2015 Cars been turning over but needs base map now then it should be running and needs running in. Need to replace the windscreen as its cracked then MOT I guess then it should be road legal when taxed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j_jza80 Posted June 28, 2015 Share Posted June 28, 2015 Good choice with the seats They're basically the same as the ones I have but with different covers. Best seats I've ever had, very comfortable and supportive but easy to get in/out of. Car's looking great Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hitbox Junkie Posted June 28, 2015 Author Share Posted June 28, 2015 Im stuck with 2 decisions at the moment, do I run the car in myself then get it mapped or see if Dude can run it in on the dyno then get it mapped? what would you guys do?

Brazil Posted June 28, 2015 Share Posted June 28, 2015 i would always go for the choice which protects you the most from liability of damage during the process of getting it fully mapped and road worthy. With Dude testing it he will pick up on anything else that needs tweeked.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JordanC Posted July 6, 2015 Share Posted July 6, 2015 Fair play, you've got some patience. I'd be doing my nut if I'd bought a car I couldn't just drive off in!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hitbox Junkie Posted July 6, 2015 Author Share Posted July 6, 2015 (edited) Fair play, you've got some patience. I'd be doing my nut if I'd bought a car I couldn't just drive off in!! I wish I had bought one I could drive off in!! I was set on a Aerotop at the time and would have 6speed at later date and single but this came up with everything I wanted. (I was told a few days worth of work and should be up and running) I guess I should have had more people look over it instead of just me I also went with my heart and not head and just dove in and bought it before someone else would have. Never again will I buy a project that I cant drive away in less its a dodge charger shell that I can get at a good price and sit on my drive when i purchase a house in the next few years. (oh and if the Mrs lets me ) Well done on a true beauty of a purchase. Good luck with your new love. Enjoy your Supra days. Cheers, bought it beginning of the year not even heard it fire up yet.
