I have seen an unfinished Supra project that'll demand cash and the space in the garage. It has to be said, I'm reluctantly thinking about selling this 5 as I can't fault it and have grown quite fond of it.

It's a real pleasure to drive - a genuine "one of a kind". The shell is solid (kept in a garage) and the engine is bullet proof. With the current set up, it's geared up for fast road/track use.

Spec:

Piper 285 cam + adjustable vernier pulley +uprated valve springs
T25 Turbo
2.5" side exit exhaust (sounds immense)
High torque starter motor
70amp alternator
Sparco strut brace
Bosch Efi fuel pump
Front mount intercooler
Oil Cooler

I'm not 100% on the carb spec, but Mike and Tony at Gt Spares built it so you know you're in good hands.

Since owning this car, I have only had to replace the odd part and it currently has a brand new battery fitted.

I have other bits I'm willing to throw in. A spare uprated alternator, an armtech rev limiter and bumpers if anyone is interested.

For any other background info, I have a thread here that has tracked some of our history together: http://www.rtoc.org/boards/showthread.php?t=32982


This car owes me £2500 and it's worth that everyday.

Edit: Price drop: £2000. Will happily keep her if she doesn't sell at that price.

Cheers,
Adam

She is currently under a indoor dust cover in my mums garage. I decided to rent her garage as there was no way this car should be left outside in the elements. :)

Thanks mate. She's currently sat in my mum's garage under a dust cover. If it doesn't sell for 2k, I think I'll keep it tucked away for the winter and see how I feel next spring.

Its just a shame I don't really get to use it. I have my daily, my Supra and now the 5 is getting no love... when she could be putting a big fat grin on someone else's face.
