Guigsy Posted July 17, 2007 Share Posted July 17, 2007 every day and my tank lasts about 2 weeks, but its only a mile and a half to work Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dibbleyuk Posted July 17, 2007 Share Posted July 17, 2007 I use my NA maybe twice during the week reason why is i have to park in a car park next to a massive building site cement dust everywhere! So i have a little saxo i use for running around also the supra is so mint! not 1 dink on the whole car i want to keep it that way! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamesC Posted July 17, 2007 Share Posted July 17, 2007 I use mine every day, but would like another car just to pootle about in - going to work some days, popping down to the shops when the Supra wouldn't even get warm, so no fun there, and it would only get dinted in the car park. True,but it hurts when a twat in a Boxter screams(shuffles)past and as you floor it-you realise your in the wifes Micra/corsa/fiesta etc Try it anyway, you might surprise yourself :d Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dangerous brain Posted July 17, 2007 Share Posted July 17, 2007 Isn't that about average reliability for AEMs users? I wouldn't know only driving twice in two months doesn't tend to highlight problems Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Posted July 17, 2007 Share Posted July 17, 2007 Aah it's no fun if you AEM boys aren't going to bite I'm just joshing about the AEM 'cos my ECU (which I inherited with the car) is the currently fashionable one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jazz1 Posted July 17, 2007 Share Posted July 17, 2007 when mines done it will be only on sunny non-rainy days and on my days off work:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Class One Posted July 18, 2007 Share Posted July 18, 2007 I do on average 2000 miles per month commuting. So the supe is used nearly every day but not by me. The work horse is the Volvo. But on days off she gets treated like she deserves. Much like the wife really. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dangerous brain Posted July 18, 2007 Share Posted July 18, 2007 Well as it stands my AEM isn't great with the auto box. Its not great with a supra's box and the aristo's feels more agricultural (that said mine is a 1991 car so maybe age has a bearing here as it felt the same as my mk3 1991 JDM motor before I changed to the AEM). I am getting it remapped soon so hopefully that should make an improvement. Also another reason I am not driving it so much is I did a set of rear tyres in about 4 months when driving it normally (erm and two track days lol) and I am deficient of funds to buy another set. Oh and said track days boiled my auto fluid nearly, boiled my brake fluid certainly, warped my front discs, saw off the last useable life on my engine oil and spark plugs, showed up a requirement to check to see if I have an LSD or not (if I do then its goosed and needs replacing, if I don't then fitting one may be an idea) Oh and I broke the brand new stereo in it as well. I may or may not be able to justify the funds required to reliably put the car into a day to day running state but I cannot afford the time required until my Mrs and sprog return to the UK for a month like say in August. Roll on the good times as I am leaving her the range rover in the UK and bringing the aristo back to Holland for a serious overhaul in August. Thats assuming my car doesn't go bang in tuning as intimated by some folks here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hoff Posted July 18, 2007 Share Posted July 18, 2007 Its an NA so every day. Thats one of the reasons i chose an NA. Whenever I've driven something other than the supra I've really missed it, and they were only dead short journeys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Chumpalot Posted July 18, 2007 Share Posted July 18, 2007 I use mine everyday. I'm still at the point where I'm actually trying to find excuses to drive the damn thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
