    A supra is your dream car? Why are you in a Z32 then? It will cost you more by the end of things. Sell it and don't waste yours or our time, save up and get a "fully sick" supra...sorted

    No, Gargoyle's was passed onto a family member I believe. He posted on the forum recently.

    i used to have a mk3, went to a supra meet and drove a fairly stock mk4 6sp TT, it just felt so amazing...

    anyway i am unemployed (bunbury what do you expect), i've studied cert 3-4 in music, now doing pre-apprenticeship in automotive,full time student at tafe, i've been saving money for the past 2 years and i bought my second realistic dream car (you know, one that you could actually afford in future not a supercar haha) which happened to be a z32, i love the looks, the sound and the experience of driving it, but no matter how long i could save for i would never be able to afford a mk4 supra without a proper job :/

    yeah i've got a full exhaust with 6" cannons, bilstein low suspensions, quickshift, air intake,twin HKS BOVs, auto turbos (they spool very fast but run out of power at 6k rpm), heavy duty clutch, apexi boost gauge, also running shy of 1 bar 13-14 psi

    sorry but

    if you can't hit an easy 350rwkw with all that you have something wrong.


    I hit way over 300rwkw consistently in my stock spec engine with only mild cams and highflows

    Its not the fancy upgraded name parts but the combination of specs and upgrades that gets you there .

    I see too many people here spend big money on engines only to make same power as a stock spec engine with good upgrades ..

    ECU is probably holding him back, or the tune.

    Yes but owning a Z32 will not be easy with out a job, so not reliable enough without knowledge you have money to back it up. Your asking how to get 400hp but have no money? Also, you are creating a problematic car by creating that sort of power, there is always going to be things breaking I would imagine or would need constant work....for example it will then be a weekend car and not an everyday car, so then you will need more money for another car!

    My tip here will be, be humble with what you have! It's a TT putting out plenty of power for a young person, and by how you read, you sound very immature. If you somehow manage to get the power you want, you will only get use to that and want more more MORE!

    I now see the reason of your concerned family wanting you to sell it! Sounds like you want a short existence, by saying you don't care about Tires, and you rather be doing fully sick burnouts!
