IMHO, anything with purple paint under the bonnet is still very much the fast & the furious.

That is gorgeous! Suprastore were selling 750 bhp 3S-GTE engines for 15K a while back! I don't know why, but I like the jap look. They may not be ferraris, or Lambos, but they are certainly sweet, and will equal the performance of any car out there, even if the styling isn't to everyones taste.. i want it.. and I want it NOW!!!!

That is bloody lovely, but most Supras are. I'd have the one of of The Fast and the Furious as well. Crap film, but some of the cars in it are top notch.

Those aero top Supras are so God damn cool!

If only they weren't rare-as-rocking-horse-shit I'd have a UK-spec manual one.

Of course, that's probably impossible.

950 horses, mmm, I'd like to see the dyno print out.

For half that money, you could purchase a car, and all the bits. A little pricey.

Ask them for a j.peg of the dyno result then, I'm sure they'd email it to you.


Because you'd be lucky to get anything from Suprastore.

Gazboy said:
How come you can get cars and parts at half price then?


1. Because I own www.totallycustom.co.uk
and
2. you've gone maximum retail on all your prices.

The car over here is worth around £12-14k over here in base form, although there was never a manual aerotop made, so it must be a manual conversion.
Also £5k for the twin setup?? why?? when a big single will be nearly half price.

Sorry, not picking faults, just saying, you'd be near that power with alot less spent.

Awesome car. Beautiful...

This is the car that has been featured in magazines because of the "980rwhp stock engine or bottom end" the engine has produced. Car is owned by Mark something if I remember correctly.

Where did you go in a 6 speed TT aerotop???

see www.vortexpower.co.uk

we could build you a 900 bhp car for much less than that, and without as much lag as 2835's. BTW those figures are on C16 fuel. I assume you know that.

3. I've been in a 6sp manual areotop twin turbo, but they are as rare as hens teeth.


Did it have the 6spd transplanted in?
