Hey peeps, it's been a very long time. I'm pretty sure I probably won't know anyone on here anymore, but I used to be a member around 10 years ago, back when I had an S13. I've got a lot of good memories with this club with visits to JAE (getting hammered) and the odd dyno day so after getting back into the car scene I'd thought I'd re-join as I've always loved this place.
I currently own a Toyota Supra, but would love to stick around and meet new peeps on here.
Welcome back mate

Thanks buddy.
Welcome back, bring the supra to the weekender this year
Oldtimers are the best timers
WB dude, bit quieter round here these days but still a few faces kicking around

My mum used to say I had a face that looked like it was kicked around.
Hi and welcome back
Thanks mate, I might just do that.

I think we could be long lost brothers.
Welcome back! After a 10 year foray into diesel estate cars I'm also thinking of returning to the fray and unearthing my S13 from the shed.

Hi mate, thanks! I'll definitely have a look at coming along to some of the local events.
I drive a silver UK-Spec TT auto. Going to convert to manual this winter.

I drive a diesel estate as my daily. The only thing that keeps me sane is knowing I have a turbo RWD car sat in the garage. Do it.
Wow another old nameWelcome back! After a 10 year foray into diesel estate cars I'm also thinking of returning to the fray and unearthing my S13 from the shed.

I can't believe some of the old firm are still alive! I notice that Petrol is still going OCD on S13's, it's like I never left.Wow another old name
Pretty sure you'd be wrong
How are you doing old chum? Been a long time.....

Arry! All is good thanks bud. It's been a very long time, indeed! I'm on tapatalk, but I had to switch to web view just to check your post count.
How's things? What are you driving these days?
Dunno where we left you TBH mate, but I think it was whilst I was driving round in an obscure Fiesta
So I sort of did this for a while:
Then I did this:
Then I went very, very sensible for a bit - well, like 4 years:
And then I made the inevitable mistake of asking the SXOC for recommendations for a diesel, reliable, practical car under £8k.......and bought a 911 with a handgrenade as an engine
What's this Supra all about then eh?
I remember up to the DC2 and I'm quite thankful I missed out on your 'sensible' phase!
After my S13 I ended up getting another Renault 5 GT Turbo.
240bhp in a biscuit tin was great fun.
Then after looking at the way the market was going, I realised it now or never to get another Supra, so after a hunting around I found this completely stock UK-Spec 3 years ago.
After getting the car, I went BPU (decat/exhaust system/HKS FCD/iridium plugs/boost controller), updated the ICE and lowered it slightly. I think the highlight for the car was being featured next to the FT-1 on the Toyota stand at Goodwood last year.
Toyota also did a little feature on it for their blog which was pretty cool.
I've found myself a bit torn with what to do with the car because the more I tweak it, the more it depreciates. Whatever the case, I don't really plan on selling up.
How the car currently looks:
Me and my girlfriend have finally just secured a house so once we've moved in, I'd really like to find a Z31 or a 180 for another little side project.
Welcome back
Cheers mate! Be sure to give us a honk.
Adam does your partner have the pink supra?
I saw yours at goodwood last year and its so clean and original looking, nice to see such a clean un-molested example of these type of cars.
