Hey mate, as I said in my thread, the n/a ain't no slouch compared to what I was used to in the starlet! I still thing a decent spec gt or Glanza would have it. Off the line without a doubt. How addictive are you finding going over 5k?!?! Because I can't help myself sometimes!

Cheers guys, I'm liking the first one too... J, I did these on the way home from work On my own pal! Exposure time was 15 seconds on these ones.

thanks buddy, im glad you like! youve hit the nail on the head there mate, much less to worry about imo... not that tt's are unreliable, because from what i can see they're not... but in general just a bit less overall cost involved!

some pics i took tonight:

Zac, all I can say is I'm so pleased she went to such a good home where she will be looked after and evolve into something far greater than I Could have managed! I'll adjust the thread title to include you as the new owner and I really look forward to seeing the progress of her. Brings a tear to my eye to see her at her new home, but I don't think she could have gone to a more genuinely nice guy. All the best for the future buddy.

It's great so far tbh, nice and comfy, not bad when you put you're toe down either. It's a bit hefty of fuel atm, but should be better when I've given it a good service. It's totally changed my driving style too...

got some updated pics i took the other day: things that have changed... well the proper import plate is now on, and the rear foglight is gone (ive rewired it into one of the reversing lights) my pioneer stereo is in (finally!), new speakers all round as the original toyota ones were shagged, new greddy grex gearknob, stock airbox now fitted, and ive been fiddling with the illumination to get rid of the horrid green... more on that when its finished! finally got round to giving it a quick polish too, but it was obviously too cold for that as it froze to the paintwor

cheers guys!

How doyou mean "power response" mate? All I know is that it's quicker than the Glanza, Power delivery is dead smooth but progressive, sucking you into the seat, untill you reach 5k then the engine note changes and a bag load more power hits you, almost a bit like vvti... she then screams her way through to 7k!and sounds the absolute tits... Don't get me wrong peeps, I did consider a tt, but it'd be another situation like the Glanza, just not using it to it's full potential. This is a bit of a handful so far, so I'd be staggered to see what the tt is like!

thanks for the kind comments. cheers bud. yeah, i'll still be on here from time to time cheers mate, well tbh, just sort out the few bits that bug me; front number plate needs to be a import job, rear fog has got to go, passenger door mirror needs fixing, and a few little bits needing to be repainted, maybe get a standard airbox too. then in the long run; new speakers all round, plasma dials, new wheels, hks hi power exhaust, oem rear spats, oem side skirts, maybe a top secret front bumper, and just generally some tarting up. there are absolutely no plans to turbo this beast, shes plen

hey guys, well as a few of you might have seen, my beloved glanza v left me yesterday... and i went to pick up her replacement the very same afternoon! this is my new project, my 1995 manual N/A Toyota Supra... she is a 1995 Non turbo model, in the same colour as my old V, 040 super white. basically standard, but with 18" alloys, blitz nur spec, and hks intake. unsure if its been lowered or not. i'll add some more info later. Rich.

Ok well it's time to draw a close to this story. If you guys haven't seen it there now is a for sale thread in classifieds. It's been a fantasic journey, from completely stock into a great little fun daily driver. It's time for a change and who knows I might go back to having another 'let one day who knows!

black ice ftw. but ive gotta ask, where did they come up with the name? BLACK ICE. surely it should smell of death or broken cars etc.

i remember that car in its prime when jim owned it. was a pure beast, shame its in a bad way now...

yeah was pretty much straight away. they were the only people around the area who were diagnosed with it so far though, so unless theyre trying to contain it and stop it from speading?

lol this one made me giggle...

have you started 'oinking' yet? or snuffling for truffles? lol know a few people who have had it now, about my age who all got issued tamiflu... not sure if i already had it though, as i had a flu like virus for about a week, maybe a month or so ago... after i had that people i know started getting it... oooops! apparently its been affecting people in different ways, some people have only had a sore throat! lol

done a fiar bit of rifle shooting with my dad when i was younger used to use his m16 (back when they were legal) down at the golf course where he works shooting rabbits... have a few air rifles, but mainly into pistols. i was gonna join the local shooting club to do some pistol shooting but they were banned the year before i could.

everyone has te37's/grids those advans are personally one of my favorite wheels designs, so i know what i'd do

jim is back! why the switch to a n/a glanza matey? needing the cash at the mo?

looks like a ct26 housing to me?

lol quite a few times! i did like the red, but i get bored easily! lol

cool. fair do's. all the best with her matey!

coolies. how much is it to fill her up?

how thursty is it then mate? how many miles to a tank?
