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

Craig you shouldn't have smoked him so bad! You made him sell! just kidding of course...

carendt242 Nov 2, 2005 05:10 PM

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 ;)
