Stratty Posted May 2, 2007 Share Posted May 2, 2007 I have just purchased my first supra from Japan and have managed to uplaod a pic. It is a 1997 SZ. I thought I would go for the NA model as it would be cheaper and I can stick a HUGE single turbo on it when it arrives Anyway, only about 5 weeks to wait now until I get my hands on it..

Stratty Posted May 2, 2007 Author Share Posted May 2, 2007 Yeah it's a Veilside kit. Interior is spotless which is a bonus. Will have to work out the cost when it gets here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarkey Posted May 2, 2007 Share Posted May 2, 2007 Will have to work out the cost when it gets here. Did you use the auctions or a export dealer in Japan ? Enjoy .. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stratty Posted May 2, 2007 Author Share Posted May 2, 2007 I used a company in Guernsey to get it. He gave me access to the auctions so that I could see what was available and when I found something I liked, he had a look at the auction sheet to see if is was good or bad. If it looked good, he sent his guy in Japan along to check it out in person. It took a while to find something decent both inside and out but it should be worth it in the end.

RobSheffield Posted May 2, 2007 Share Posted May 2, 2007 someone want to mention the gearbox and the huge amount of BHP it can take? Although it is 97 so facelift and so could perhaps be 6 speed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stratty Posted May 2, 2007 Author Share Posted May 2, 2007 No idea about the turbo yet. I am leaving it in the hands of the people bringing it over. They know more about this than I do. I am new to this modded scene. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clarkey Posted May 2, 2007 Share Posted May 2, 2007 Isn't someone on here selling an already converted NA-T 5 speed for £5300 ? edited ~ That car was sold for £4300. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stratty Posted May 2, 2007 Author Share Posted May 2, 2007 It is a 5 speed manual. Don't know too much about it apart from what was on the auction sheet and the photos I have of it at the docks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
