Stephen . . . say it isn't so . . . you sold your 996TT?
Chuck posted the following on SupraForums this morning ( http://www.supraforums.com/forum/sho...d.php?t=323710 ):
"My new car -- 996tt
just wired the money, pick it up in LA tomorrow.
stats:
- approx 520-550whp on 91/93
- full boost (18psi) by 3000rpm
- one-of-a-kind factory Lambo Titanium Metallic paint
- hybrid k16/k24 turbos w/ protomotive tuning
- jic 15-way coil-overs
- 5 bar fpr
- fabspeed racing exhaust
first mods will be:
- hook up Profec B & turn up boost for higher octane
- get tuning to accomodate boost
- remove the front spoiler (never liked em)
- maybe a quieter exhaust
as for the supra:
- it's officially relieved from daily-driver duty
- it would probably like a larger turbo now
i will post some more pics once i pick up the car. 5 years ago i had all the money in the world; 3 years ago i was flat broke; and i never thought i'd be able to do this again.
keep working & take chances - it's well worth it."
He also posted several photos which look remarkably similar to your car.
What are you getting next?

Sorry to say for me but it is true as of now, I everything goes smoothly.. I was so sure the car was mine and wanted it badly, I had so much stress over damm cars in the past week or 2 to get mine sold for his, but now someone came along and closed the deal
Oh well, stephen is a real cool guy but business is business, stephen ill call you later I couldn't pick up the phone sorry.. Martin

money exchanged, flying down tomorrow to pick it up.
i guess it's not sold til he hands over the keys, but i will put up a fight
i've been a lurker on 6speed for the past 8 months or so dreaming of this day. when stephen first posted his car, i was like, that's it!
looking forward to participating & advancing the community the best i can. my current car is a 98 supra w/ a small single turbo and i've learned a thing or 2 over the past 2 years. hopefully i can apply what i've learned to my fancy new car...
it sounds like my new car's arch-nemisis is craig's car... while i hadn't planned to take it to those levels, we'll have to see
