Once again thanks for the compliments everyone QUOTE(Jason91 @ Dec 9 2008, 10:23 AM) [snapback]1283267948[/snapback] i'd keep it and just save for project car imo you've spent to much hardwork and labour to see that drive away without you in it but choice is yours Do you own a supra cause the whole club (QLD Supra Club) has been telling me not to sell hahaha, I'm putting a firm price on it and if I don't get it I will be keeping it....doesn't phase me either way QUOTE(mr hemi @ Dec 9 2008, 11:09 AM) [snapback]1283268169[/snapback] nice work on the car, im guessing you changed it from auto to manual during the rebuild. looks awesome just as it is, no ugly kit to destroy it and engine bay looks tops. love it! Yeah complete swap see My Supra Here. Had a lot of plans for it, but as you read on... things changed.....lol |

I have plenty of people that can back me up on this from the recent track day I was at.....so grow up know it all |

"What is power without control?" - Keiichi Tsuchiya I'm not no poser either, I was fastest at the track day we (QLD Supra Club) had just recently, lapping 10secs a lap quicker than the closest car, below are a few comments from members that I took for a ride QLD Supra Club - Thread on track day...... ...Stu...was just fault less in his laps & quickest on lap limes & chased down a couple of porches with a rx5 holding him up till the straight away i didnt drive but still had a blast watching and a good few laps as co-driver with stu, ecellent driving man, really good. After going in stu's *circuits* car he showed me what lines there were i really never had any instructor in my car The highlight of my day without a doubt was riding with Stu Man am I glad i didnt wuss out!... awesome stuff Stu..great for the adrenalin; just a coupla "f*ck! f*ck!" came out on the last 2 laps as he picked up the pace, had to get that Porsche, and wouldve on the next lap but time was up, damn it! while stu was lapping me twice per session doing 1.20's Stu: well driven - i hear you have worn your advans fresh out! and good to see someone keeping up with the porsches!!! I want a TURBO!!! hahaha. It seems i missed out on a run with you that was gold.. full lock all the way.. man i am jealous of your control what dave said you have AWESOME control over the car You don't need power to be able to drive |

Example of a perfectly built car without all the wanker bits. PS. For a stock car this thing squats like hell when it comes on boost lol I took off casualy, cause I could hear the RB but didn't know if it had a 20,25 or 26 shoved in it.....got to 3rd casualy then decieded I could pass you dropped it back to 2nd and went on by I had a good laugh Yeah the MKIV supra's squat a fair bit with stock suspension |
