Wow Martin, you definitely picked a winner. I love the setup, and i love the mod's you want to do, we think a like, coincidence?

Anyway congrats and goodluck with the turbo, i drove mine all yesterday and it kept getting better and fasteer as i was driving, its amazing.

congratulations on the purchase!

awesome!

 

Yes, they are. The wheels are very similar to the Champion RG5B.

 

I think you may be my younger twin brother... Yeah man, it was a blast driving from So Cal back up to Vegas Sunday afternoon. I had a few friendly little runs on the 15 freeway with an SL55 AMG, a BMW 750IL, and an modded EVO.

 

Welcome to our very sick and demented club. Guard your wallet now!

Congrats!

 

Congratulations on your beautiful turbo! How do you think it compares to your previous modded Supra?

 

Congrats on the car and thanks for offering some direction to another former M3 pilot.

 

Too late...I already got a V1, bought the CF piece around the radio/ac/vent controls, and picked up a used MA Shaw GT2 front bumper....someone grab my wallet quick...

 

Yea man, i had a sick ride yesterday with 2 porsche guys on here who brogutht heir 5 series bimmers, one being an m5 and a 545, both were gorgeous. Me and the M5 went at it, umm should i let him tell you the outcome??

 

Well, both have that "crazy push you back in your seat" speed and acceleration. However, the 996tt seems to handle a lot better with the AWD and the wider tires in the back....very little breaking loose. The Supra was also a beast of a car as I got it up to 425rwhp but wasn't quite as fun to drive as the 996tt. The Supra is a little more roomy on the inside, but the 996tt has a more refined interior layout.

 

Thanks for the comparo. Sounds like you are experiencing what I love about the 911, it's poise and unflappable character. Nothing quite like it when tackling quick S-bends in the local canyons... It just remains so controlled.

 

That's one fantastic looking ride.
Congratulations.

 

Martin,

Congrats on your Porsche Turbo. I am envious! Good luck on modding.

I just love how the car throws itself into a corner and pulls so hard when exiting. This thread makes me sad...3 more days and i reunite with my baby.

 

Martin finally, she looks great and the wheels look awesome (I really like the Turbo centercaps) Congrats!
