As some of you may know, im currently in the process of selling my beloved RX7. Ive had it for a while now, an felt the need for a change after riding in a friends toyota supra. Well, im now the proud owner of a black supra rz-s vvti :) The supra is pretty much stock at the moment, with just upgraded rims, ill post some real pics when i get the camera working lol, until then, heres an nfsu version...and for those of you who think im insane, dont worry, the car wont remain stock for much longer, i have plans for this car 8)

I love supras in black... i know I should be getting a new car soon, but I am still searching... Urqs are so expensive, so I am actually thinking of getting a normal GT coupe 2.3Q. and then dropping the VW/Audi 1.8T in, and chiptuning it... So it will cost cheaper than getting Urquattro... and still rate at 220 + bhp. Than the flared arches kit and it's done... same car except for the electronic dials... What do you think grez? I mean 12grand for a 20 yearold car is expensive business... but I won't get the lovely 5 cylinder bark... man i am torn apart!!! :twisted:

I think I might even buy the Gt 2.3 coupe AND keep the Avant. I think this way i can slowly start working on the coupe, and in a year or so get it ready. Because I can't be without a car, and GT will set me back just 1000euros (just! - of course it still a lot of money). So decisions, decisions...

Have you sold the RX7 yet or you have both cars still?

oh and my dream would be to chop the middle part out of the coupe, and make into the shortwheelbase sport quattro... now that will cost around 10grand to do... but I just don't know how to even start on that ...

The car was £16k, so it was a bit more expensive than the RX7 (£14k), but import cars are fairly cheap here anyway. Yea your right on the name lol. Yea its a gorgeous kit, just hope it gets fitted and painted properly
