Ark Posted December 1, 2005 Share Posted December 1, 2005 All I can say is "How the hell do you afford to run ANY car on student funds"? When I was a student not _that_ long ago, a car was the epitome of student luxury. Hell, 8 years on and I'm on IT contractor wages now, and I still go weak over the costs!

stevie_b Posted December 1, 2005 Share Posted December 1, 2005 Rallure, just out of interest, what was your previous supra? NA/TT, stock/BPU? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colsoop Posted December 1, 2005 Share Posted December 1, 2005 Chin up dude, i can sympathise with your predicament. i am a poor pensioner who manages to run his supra , i had a phase where 4 things needed replacing at once, clutch, brake pads discs and passenger caliper it is quite frustrating but you have to take the rough with the smooth in performance car ownership and the smooth always out weighs the rough. Just write everything that needs doing down in a list and prioritise it in order of pain in the arse factor or importance then get up a bit earlier on a weekend i know your a student so that is probably going to be the hardest part spend a couple of hours on the job list before the missus wakes up, do that a couple of mornings a week and you should get through the list in not time and have the car running sweet. Good luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robert Posted December 1, 2005 Author Share Posted December 1, 2005 ok let me get things clear, i didnt change the air box, i havent fitted any mods to the car since ive had it. My previous supra was a jap spec TT at BPU with some lovely mods and ab-flug kit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got my Supra in my final year at Uni Now I'm an IT contractor and TBH I had more "play" money back then!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jspec Germany Posted December 2, 2005 Share Posted December 2, 2005 I can remember the days when I was a lowly airman with only one or two stripes. Seems like I had more money than I knew what to do with. Now I've got five and it seems like there's never enough. Strange how that happens huh? The more you make, the more you spend.
