Thorin Posted August 10, 2006 Share Posted August 10, 2006 ya they must have m8...if u say so...get a life..just because i have ambitions your jealous...ur probs some 30 year old who hates seeing anyone else get anywhere in life unless he has 4 A*'s at alevel and a 1st at uni :rlol: Some kid who can barely type coherent english comes on an internet forum bullshitting trying to impress (we're not 14 year old girls on myspace or whatever it is you hang about on you know), and tells me to get a life? PMSL! Speaking of mods could you tell me what benifits/side affects wheel archers would have? Iv seen someon ebay, I like the idea of the wheels flaring out more at the rear and it said it makes it better for drifting..but im not sure..there must be a reason why they wernt fitted as standard.." I went back and "read what you wrote". Does that mention anything about spacers? And you obviously had no idea what a dump valve was and thought it would work on your N/A (if you even have one) or you would not have asked about them. Please continue, this is most amusing.

ry4n Posted August 10, 2006 Share Posted August 10, 2006 all the exhausts u see so many supras with sound no different that all these fools who tweak thier tiny novas and fiestas and saxos, onmly with more base and vibration...its not distinct....With the ferrari f355 u got the distinct note, iwas only wondering it there is any technoology that can recreate this.. AND NO I DONT HAVE A FERRARI BADGE to the muppet who asked me Mate there's no offence intended here and while I agree with you about the F355 sounding luverly there is absolutley no mistaking a supra when its opened up. It has one of the most distinctive engine notes there is and comparing said note with a Saxo, nova or fiesta well it just aint cricket mate.

Max Headroom Posted August 10, 2006 Share Posted August 10, 2006 Boombastictiger turn off the BS and accept what you have been advised by people here who actually know what they are talking about regarding Supras and save yourself further embarassment. This is the time to shut up and grow up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boombastictiger Posted August 10, 2006 Author Share Posted August 10, 2006 THORIN U ARE A KID MAN I swear i started a post asking what exhaust can get my car to sound like another car exhaust because i like it, and ur like a fly on shit... Ok spacers and archers sorry my mistake...shit i dont know my car inside out, shot me...thats why im on here asking whats possible... tell me what im bs'ing about?? Well I see why some of you are a bit mislead, you see down south in london around ace cafe and them places, what people to do small crap cars makes them seem alot more powerful than what they really are.. and yeah it wont sound as deep and violent as a supra, but they are buying the same exhaust and fitting them on so some notes sound similar...all i was asking if there was an exhaust systme that could make my supra sound similar to that of a capritso exhaust...whats the harm in that? So what if im tryna impress whats wrong, ill do that if i want, what if you have a problem dont reply here....all i was doing is asking for help and most people on here just reply sarcasticly... Like i said im going to do most work on my supra in a year...and no i dont know everything about them like im sure u all do...that why im on here asking people for tips and advice, and then i get 30 sumthing middle age men in a life crisis making sarcastic replies....jeeeez Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smudger Posted August 10, 2006 Share Posted August 10, 2006 nah whats wrong with automotive engineering, my friend done it and he worked for mclaren...im going down the designpath tho... Im doing the 4 year sandwich course Whats the name of the above mentioned friend ? Will pop up to HR and see Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matt k Posted August 10, 2006 Share Posted August 10, 2006 This is a Supra running a big single http://boostlogic.com/parts/supra/info_supra_4inchExhaust.html i've never heard a Saxo, Nova, Corsa sound like this! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boombastictiger Posted August 10, 2006 Author Share Posted August 10, 2006 I dont want to give his name because he does not work thier anymore and its his personal reasons why.., he runs his own business now in central london...hes alot older than i am hes 29 im 22...I used him as an example as to what job opportunities are available after doing the course because people were laughing at it for some reason....before working for mclaren he worked for ford....Its not a big thing...if you get a 1st in automotive engineering and do a good project in your 3rd year you are pretty much on the right track...oh ya i forgot he done a masters to which helps and he didnt walk into mclaren, started at ford first... kingston is in the top 10 unis for engineering, so thier are alot of people with hot jobs...

Alex Posted August 10, 2006 Share Posted August 10, 2006 Please would a moderator explain to the fool how to write... If you've made it into UNI and you're this thick I really do fear for the future of this country. Automotive Engineering...is that like mechanics 101? Are you going to learn how to use a spanner? And then get a Masters in Torque Wrenches? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boombastictiger Posted August 10, 2006 Author Share Posted August 10, 2006 ahhh man i cant listen to it at the moment im at work and it wont let me open it up :-( ... do you have any more sites that have audio clips Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boombastictiger Posted August 10, 2006 Author Share Posted August 10, 2006 i swear alex whats wrong with u....i dont get it? is it a sin to ask questions? ur so stupid like i said im doing the design side of things....automotive engineering has not alot to do with being a physical mechanic...we do the designing and testing etc...and then the mechanics put it together... I really dont know what alex is have a pansy attack for... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hob Posted August 10, 2006 Share Posted August 10, 2006 and then i get 30 sumthing middle age men in a life crisis making sarcastic replies....jeeeez I take it the average life expectancy is now 60? (and btw most insurance companies I have spoken to require you to be over 25 for the J-Spec TT) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boombastictiger Posted August 10, 2006 Author Share Posted August 10, 2006 lol i dunno why people are having a go at me, if it makes u happy richie rich i have 3 jobs, i work for axa insurance in the breakdown department (oh yeah and for record NO ONE HAS EVER REPORTED A SUPRA BREAKING DOWN ; I DID HAVE ONE CUSTOMER WHO PUT DIESEL IN A SKYLINE R34 THOUGH!!), a sales assistant an i own my own business ( http://www.futureofsales.com ) ...ifall goes well by next year im hoping to clear all debt and be able to really do up my car properly.... OK ill be hounest, RICHIE, Thorn, and everyone else who has been taking the piss out of me on here, ill tell why im so eager to pick anything to make my car go faster.... I have a NON turbo supra...and yes nobody buys a supra to go slowly...and yes i have had many drags...agaisnt 350z's, ferrari 360, rx7. murcealago, gallardo, other supras and many many other hot cars...and I lost most of the races knowing that if i had a twin turbo i could have won....its not a nice feeling...Especially when you find yourself having a edgy time racing ford cosworth or a grandpa in his e220 merc....right now i cant afford a twin turbo, so thats why im tryna find out everything i can do to speed my car up as it is and make it more agile...I know that most of the things i have asked about will be benificial when i have a TT, but i kind of want to know if any will help me before. Generally what i have been told is the following to increase performance..: New exhaust system (de cat) Induction Kit (although people have told me differently) Struts (for handling) And putting my car on a diet...weight loss.. yea hob, on a j spec it might be hard getting insurance, but on a Uk spec TT its cheaper to insure me than my NON turbo j spec.....but if i got the car for cheap from japan it might be worth the extra money...bonzai cars are meant to do good imports, but if i went over to japan maby could pick something better up first hand...

bignum Posted August 10, 2006 Share Posted August 10, 2006 boombastic, this is a very realistic forum for realistic like minded people and when you come on chatting total shit its no wonder you get jumped on, i say think before you type.

Daston Posted August 10, 2006 Share Posted August 10, 2006 an a lighter note it is the engine at the end of the day that creates the sound in the first place so lets say carpark kev takes my RSR exaust and puts it on his nova. His car will still sound shit as he hasnt got a 3l straight 6. The exhaust only changes the noise that was there in the first place, if you have a shit little engine the noise will sound crap if you have a big V8, V6, straight 6 it will sound much better Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rpslaughter1982 Posted August 10, 2006 Share Posted August 10, 2006 just to let under 25's know I got insured with elephant for 850 quid on a j spec TT 6 speed, (I'm 23) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hob Posted August 10, 2006 Share Posted August 10, 2006 Oh bugger Yep I think its heading that way, each year another insurance company ups the age requirement. Tesco even did it mid-term policy they wanted me to be 19 whilst I was 18 (on a MG ZR), I said but i'm allready insured with you? Then they had to "override the computer", guss it was a case of "computer says no" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whitesupraboy2 Posted August 10, 2006 Share Posted August 10, 2006 Oh bugger boombastictiger - we're now getting somewhere saying what you want from your car (things that are possible to do) im only 23 and insured on a TT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boombastictiger Posted August 10, 2006 Author Share Posted August 10, 2006 White Supra BOy is that ur car? Is that the ab flug s900 body kit? thats my favorite kit!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boombastictiger Posted August 10, 2006 Author Share Posted August 10, 2006 i understand the engine plays the main part, but never mind i didnt mean to offend anyone, The supra is my favorite car FULL STOP, I love it its my baby, no women can ever replace it...basically visually I want to do a chrome/black colour co-ordination through the car, inside and out, I have the chrome wheels which i guess are the main part and the chrome interior..need the chrome sidelights and glass headlights and exhaust then im done really.. BTW Bignum what was I saying that wasnt realistic? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whitesupraboy2 Posted August 10, 2006 Share Posted August 10, 2006 White Supra BOy is that ur car? Is that the ab flug s900 body kit? thats my favorite kit!!! yes it is mate ive just bought it and yes its the flug s900 kit I can see why you want the sound of the ferrari, some do sound nice but it will never happen. Just wait till your in a car and a supra comes by you wont be dissapointed. Unfortunatly this question has been asked before, its best to accept defeat and enjoy what you got. nothing wrong with the NA supra i had it for 3 yrs (and infact still got it...for sale in my sig ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boombastictiger Posted August 10, 2006 Author Share Posted August 10, 2006 Ya i know what u mean, but to be hounest, i just got a bit exited really, i was down edgware road the other day...m8 im telling u it was porn...I saw a ferrari 360, a mclaren slr, a white murcealago with black rims, a gallardo convertable, a sl 500 and then a f355 f1 with a capritso exhaust that sounded better than them all....I saw a few skylines and a couple of supras to... Then the next day my mate who works for ferrari sent me a video of him test driving loads of ferraris and send me of a vid of him in a f355....in a tunnel to I then turn around to my supra and feel a lil um upset..wishing i had the money to do it up...but i have to wait ahhhg.. Then to top it off my m8t who went to uni and worked for mclaren sold his m3 to raise money to get a U guessed it Ferrari 430... But i swear to god i would choose the AB FLUG S900 Withthe 800bhp engine any day over any of them...its my fav car of all time, the first time i saw it i fell in love.. as they say all good things come to those who wait...im just looking for ways to speed up the waiting process...;-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whitesupraboy2 Posted August 10, 2006 Share Posted August 10, 2006 But i swear to god i would choose the AB FLUG S900 Withthe 800bhp engine any day over any of them...its my fav car of all time, the first time i saw it i fell in love.. im happy with the 350 - 380bhp its probably pushing out, im still young like yourself and have plenty of time to do what i want with it. Just try not to be impatient, in 5 yrs time you'll probably be abl to buy a 500BHP relatively cheap and then keep up with some of those other cars. Anyway no point having 800bhp in london you can hardly go fast most of the time! heres a pic from previous owner (b'have on here) ill be polishing and taking some pics this weekend, hopefully itll be sunny!
