jon5698 Posted June 19, 2009 Posted June 19, 2009 Well i am now the proud owner of a Supra it has been my dream car for god knows how many years and am so happy. I was bidding on this last week but it never met it's reserve at auction, then Jurgen who is getting me the car told me that it was back up last night, i asked him to up my bid but when i checked this morning it still hadn't sold, i was gutted! but got a call from him when i was at work saying he had spoken to the owner and had managed to get him to sell it. So now just the waiting game, the spec i know so far is:18" BBS AlloysFmicboost gaugemomo steering wheelinduction kitexhaust possibly suspensionstrut braceFRP Bonnet.i will get some more pics once it goes to the port.

Well funny you should mention BPU, i have just bought a greddy profec e01 boost controller tonight from MKIV.net my mate is giving me his decats as he has gone single. It already has fmic so i only need a 1.1 bar restrictor ring and fuel pump Quote
Faisal_Sol Posted June 23, 2009 Posted June 23, 2009 Nice one mate, you haven't wasted anytime there You won't be dissappointed when its fully BPU'd. I've driven one, and it goes like stink and that was an auto.You'll have a lot of fun with the Six speed. Keep us updated Quote
Sparky Posted June 23, 2009 Posted June 23, 2009 Mint mate glad you got the one you wanted Cant wait to see it in your hands Quote
BAZ2CRAZY Posted June 23, 2009 Posted June 23, 2009 nice!When importing does it end up costing more than what it would to buy already in the uk?Mitch Quote
jon5698 Posted June 23, 2009 Author Posted June 23, 2009 nice!When importing does it end up costing more than what it would to buy already in the uk?MitchIt depends on what you go for really, i doubt i would be able to get this car for the price i have paid for it. The exchange rate is also a big factor as well.Cheers sparky i can't wait to get it either. Quote
BAZ2CRAZY Posted June 23, 2009 Posted June 23, 2009 Oh cool, what about a GT? did you import yours?Sorry if im filling your thread with toss.Mitch Quote
jon5698 Posted June 23, 2009 Author Posted June 23, 2009 Oh cool, what about a GT? did you import yours?Sorry if im filling your thread with toss.MitchNo i bought the GT from a garage, i imported the ek9 myself though and saved about 3k Quote
jon5698 Posted July 8, 2009 Author Posted July 8, 2009 Well i have finally got some pics of the car, there are a few scratches on it but Jurgen will be sorting them out before i pick the car up. Once i have some more money i will get the engine bay painted the same colour as the body work, i plan to paint the centre of the steering wheel black as i am not keen on the red and possibly taking the spoiler off. Quote
Faisal_Sol Posted July 8, 2009 Posted July 8, 2009 Such a gorgeous colour!Would look very nice spoilerless also. Bet you can't wait to get this beast! Quote
LukeSR Posted July 8, 2009 Posted July 8, 2009 Don't take the spoiler off pleasee!by the way i love these so much, i want one Quote
