As above.
Seen this car being sorted by Paul Howard. Top bloke.
Car is crazy quick. Wider arches on it were all done by my cousin, all lead filled and done properly. I love the fact its still got all the mod cons.
Always loved this car. Trust me, you cant go far wrong buying from Paul.

If it was the yellow 1 from CRD then that was a full spec drag car with 1200bhp iirc. If you were to look at a r33 gtr with the same power then they aren't much cheaper and TBH the supra is a much better looking car.

I'm not in the market for something like this, however if I was, without any hesitation I'd be paying someone who doesn't feature in this cars history, but knows these cars inside and out, some cash to go over it with a fine tooth comb and check that it is what it says it is, before parting with almost 30k for a Supra.
If it came back without any major concerns then I'd be all over it like a tramp on chips because like you said, life is for living.
Cheers,

Things will break if its used hard for long enough, but they would if you'd had it built youself. In BHP per litre terms its inline with a 550-600hp Evo/cossy. 500hp Honda etc etc.

Looks to be a very serious car, a guy in the village has one pushing 800hp, good for 1000hp though but it is a road car. I know that his cost a shed load to build so yours is a cheap car in comparison, I wouldn't fancy having to fix it though !
If you use the Mk4 supra forum I think his name is Terminator on there, externally the car looks nigh on stock so if you see it about prepare to have some fun !

the problem with the skyline was working on it, was a complete headache to work on, now the supra has the jap reliability but easy to work on like a cossie, the supra is win win imo.
the only downside is my 0 - 60 in 3.3 seconds are now out the window lol

i agree about working on some cars are a bitch,,, the impreza can be a bitch for space but im happy if the supra is not a issue, still a shame about the R32 as i always wanted one of them

are the prices in the advert for the engine etc billy bullshit?? or is "JDM tax" worse than cossie tax??
They claim 50-60k on the engine rebuild when even you totalled up only £20k in parts.
