I'd love the Autech but i don't have or really want to spend 18k on a car that when im off my P's i can get another car for around the same or cheaper and demolish it.

I don't know honestly what I want out of my car, I obviously need something to get around in to and from work each day (Don't need anything like a ute for work) but something I can have fun with at the same time and enjoy driving. I would get a 34 but I don't like the sedans at all there real ugly. I don't want to turn it into a beast but i want something just nice thats got a little bit so i can open it up when I want to and have some fun with it. Don't plan on doing TO much to it, while im on my P's mostly looks if anything.

My mate was telling me if I get a N/A supra its the same drive train as the TT Supra so when im off my P's all id need to do is switch the engine basicly and im done?

IF you get the SZ-R. The 5spd manual (what I have) that comes with the SZ is apparently too weak to handle higher powered 2J's. The Getrag 6spd box is near unbreakable though (plenty of 500+rwkw Supras on the Aussie forums with the box), both the RZ (TT Supra) and SZ-R come with the 6spd.

Best advice I can give is to test drive both. I was dead set on the R34 till I test drove a Supra, but your opinion may vary.

    • The final part arrived today to un-clampify and simplify the intake Who would have though a 1/2" hose stainless bulkhead fitting designed for below waterline bilge pumps would be what I needed Test fit on a 3" offcut I had laying around to see if it would work, and it worked a treat All going well the intake will be on its "final version" tomorrow 
    • Good luck on the weekend mate
    • Must have been an absolute nightmare to drive when the power steer was out, the rack ratio/wheel size/caster is all set up for power assistance
    • Welcome to SAU, what are you looking at buying?
    • I checked the injectors again (1 and 2, since they’re easiest to access) to make sure they weren’t clogged. Even though the entire fuel system had been cleaned, I wanted to be certain. Everything looked clean, so I reinstalled and connected everything. When I started the car to confirm everything was okay, it immediately revved up high, so I shut it off straight away. I checked to see if I’d missed a vacuum hose or something, but everything was connected. On the second attempt, the car ran without the high idle, but I noticed a distinct “compressed air” sound coming from the engine bay. Tracing the sound, I pushed injector #6 forward slightly and the noise stopped — it turned out it wasn’t seated properly, despite the fuel rail being bolted down. While holding it in place, the car idled steadily without stalling and ran for over 5 minutes. At this point, I pulled all six injectors out just in case I hadn’t seated them correctly or dirt had gotten onto the O-rings. Unfortunately, I discovered that I had damaged 3 out of 6 injectors (the OEM 270cc ones) during installation. So yes, this was my fault. Since only the pintle caps were damaged, I’ve ordered a Fuel Injector Service Kit from NZEFI to refurbish them. In the meantime, I reinstalled my new injectors – the car now idles fine for over 15 minutes without stalling. I have not attempted to drive it so far. It’s not perfect yet, as it hesitates when the throttle is pressed, but it’s a big improvement. Unplugging the IACV with the new injectors idles at around 800rpm, even with the IACV screw tightened fully. But this is probably due to tune.
