[MR-PUNANNY]

Hot supra btw Shane! Well done chief.

[sejanus]

you bring a plain stock supra to wakefield park and do a 1:07 and I'll post a thread saying how much supras rock.

what a load of shit.

[Matt T.M.C]

Stock Shane?

[MR-PUNANNY]

tee hee fire up!! haha

ok ok, its almost stock, coilovers, semis and 260kw.

[sejanus]

lol

only 260kw. your car would absolutely murder mine in a straight line.

I'll be putting coilovers on soonish,. want to do a epic supra vs rx7 track day?

[SIKMA]

btw, i love the fd, and i did want one but 2 things turned me off...most of them highlighted they had "rebuilt the motor" or "new engine @ x amount of kms" and secondly, the steering cannot be adjusted, and my knees hit it. Im only 5'9 too.

Maybe you just need longer arms so you can move the seat back a little and not have to have your legs around your ears in order to reach the wheel? :p

I'm pretty sure listening to your gearing you have more legs than me on the straight

My mate recently bought a Titanium Series 8 Spirit R and is very happy with it. He didn't get it checked out yet has had no issues with it.

The only thing he has said was when test driving a few different FD Spirit Rs he was surprised at the difference in performance despite being assured that each one was stock. I am guessing that the term stock must have been used loosely He tells me his is slow and needs more mods :rotflol:

There also seems to be a variation in the Titanium paint, some panels look a bit hit and miss in various lights but I guess the car is an 02 model. His may have had a smack maybe. It is a very firm car with quite a few interior rattles but again its not a brand new car I guess. Petrol consumption is not a strong point...

However to me it is a nice car to drive, handles really well and looks great! Seems like a performance bargain for around $40k. Normal Series 8 for mid to high 20s even more so!

what is the bathurst model I see around the place?

[-rod-]

Yeah hsv his compression may be a bit off. It directly affects performance. Also I haven't seen a spirit yet that doesn't have mismatched bumpers.
