Gruggs Posted May 24, 2006 Share Posted May 24, 2006 Hi Guys, Can't believe i'm doing this but unfortunately the beast is for sale :( . As you will see below this is Dangerous Brian's old car and I purchased it in January of this year. I'm having to sell as i have just accepted a job in Boston for a 2 year post and can't really take the car with me as the company is already going to provide a car. I've pretty much cribbed the info below from DB's advert as i couldn't be bothered typing it all back out again but since purchase the car has had the brake pads replaced front and rear with EBC red stuff pads (just at the weekend there). Apart from that nothing has changed except its covered a few more miles taking it to £65,000 miles. Heres the details: -UK spec brakes 4 pot fronts and 2 pot rears, EBC red stuff front and rear pads, Stainless Steel brake lines, and brembo grooved discs Toyota UK Spec Front Brakes including delivery to UK - £475 Contents: 2 x 4pot Brake Calipers 2 x 323*30mm Brake Discs Fitting Kit Shim Kit Toyota UK Spec Rear Brakes including delivery to UK - £490 Contents: 2 x 2pot Brake Calipers 2 x 324*30mm Brake Discs Fitting Kit Discs and pads just fitted -HKS Fuel Cut Defencer, TRL SLD, Walbro + FSE HKS fuel cut defencer receipt for £95, Walbro pump receipt £160 FSE £115.15 -Bilstein shocks/Eibach springs front and back suspension + TRD anti-roll bars (front n rear) which lowers the car by 38 mm B8 FRONT - £146+VAT EACH B8 REAR £146+VAT EACH these prices are discounted by 12% over the list price. Balance Motorsport . I can't find TRD anti roll bars anywhere to price them up. -Blitz SUS airfilter with Carbo Fibre protection box Receipt for £209.00 -HKS 'S' Front Mount Intercooler with hard pipe kit £740.43 -ERL Water Injection Kit that currently operates at .95 bar £342.75 -HKS SSQV Blow Off Valve + Samco Hoses £287.88 for BOV -Fully DeCatted Hiper Zorst RSR GT Sport Exhaust System closest I can find to the Hyper as the hyper is no longer available £475 Cat replacement pipes £275 -Blitz DSBC Spec S Boost Controller £369 -A'Pexi SAFC 2 £258.50 -Defi (BF) oil press, boost and exhaust gas temperature gauges (+controller) £495 -TRL top speed delimiter and speedo converter £110 -Racelogic Traction Control Receipt for £476.60 - HKS Turbo Timer £125 + harness £20 -ETTC (true twin turbo mode potential ie parallel which is switchable) -HKS 264 Cams (Int + Exh) + cam gears Gears £111.62 cams £600 -18'' AZEV rims with 245/40/18 and 275 /35/18 F1 GSD3's Brand new £1270 wheels £750 for the new tyres -Alpine CD (+RC) Player + Amp, Alpine speakers front and back, Purpose made bass box with 10" kicker pro sub. -UK Glass headlamps + facelift indicators (front and side) £306.75 headlamps £45 front indicators £35 sides -New Radiator + blinged intercooler cover plate Receipt for £301.98 and top cover £57.50 -Phillips Bulbs, Cat 1 Alarm + Optima Battery Battery receipt for £210 includes optima battery terminals. -TRD (copy) Fibreglass Bonnet £500 - ORIGINAL GZ OEM Skirts/Spats -Snooper S6R Neo GPS £329 -Full front and rear seat re-trim by Gibson and Boyne trimming company in soft hide leather and genuine alcantara with piping. -Door panels trimmed in alcantara Receipt for £1550 and some demo work done to keep price down -Stainless steel dial faces with red backlighting £115 -Dash lights and LEDs replaced with red £30 All of these prices are for the items themselves either receipted or current market cost as new. It isn't a cost for installation. In laymans terms what this means is that this car handles like a dream. Goes like stink 0-60 in around 4.8 seconds but to be honest that doesn't do the car justice. Its 90-150 acceleration is absolutely astounding and completely relentless, the confirmed 395 BHP the car has at the hubs may have something to do with this performance. It also stops with awesome confidence inspiring ability which is a good idea with this sort of power. The race logic traction control helps even the most enthusiatic driver keep the car going in the direction the driver pointed it in very efficiently. The cabin is a very nice place to sit on quality hide and listen to the noise of the top class stereo or wind the windows down take the roof off and listen to that sweet engine. Its got service history from the UK and I personally have had the oil and filter changed (fully synthetic and trd filter), the auto box fluid changed, spark plugs replaced (HKS Iridium), coolant changed, brake discs and pads replaced, brand new tyres, all less than 4000 miles ago. Tax is 01/07 and MOT to Jan 2007. It was originally sourced from Japan by JIC and owned by another ex club member so its never been owned by anyone other than forum members. PS I'll insert images once i know how!!! £13,500 Cheers Graeme Contact me either by pm, email or phone email - [email protected] mobile - 07841863373 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr lover Posted May 24, 2006 Share Posted May 24, 2006 why? sorry dont mean to be nosey but such a nice car Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gruggs Posted May 24, 2006 Author Share Posted May 24, 2006 Hi Mr Lover, No probs being nosey. If you dont ask questions you dont get answers. As its says at the top i'm going across to Boston, America on a 2 year placement post and included in the deal over there is house, car etc and can't really justify taking it across. Plus the 2 year placement is the minimum as the option is there to extend it permanently if each party is happy. Gutted to see her go but career comes first.....God can't believe i said that!!!! Cheers Graeme PS anyone know how to work imageshack all i've got so far is to post this link http://graeme-henderson.magix.net/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is a stunning car and with me going out to Holland to work and no longer commuting I'd be tempted to buy it back if I had the cash Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sooper-supra Posted May 25, 2006 Share Posted May 25, 2006 this your old car db?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dangerous brain Posted May 25, 2006 Share Posted May 25, 2006 It certainly is dude and before me it was Roy from the forum and he bought it from the now retired JIC who were the most respected importers in the land at the time. So basically this car has never been off the forum. I think blokey has actually understated the power as well as the power figures I had from thor put it at 474 bhp and a massively quick spool time. He has also negated to mention its damn close to 11's 1/4 time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Posted May 26, 2006 Share Posted May 26, 2006 It certainly is dude and before me it was Roy from the forum and he bought it from the now retired JIC who were the most respected importers in the land at the time. Roy was a good guy, and JIC were the best imo, top people there, and an absoultely fantastic business they had, shame the guy had a stroke.
