I guess it was only a good price while the car lasted. : Well, one 6.0 less....more for the rest ! Shamile Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

limey Report post Posted April 4, 2008 That is a damn shame, something was array with this. The guy only 3 weeks ago had the superchargers rebuilt & the engine serviced. Someone is going to have to answer a lot of questions with this. The only consolation i see is this, my 6.0 will be the only twin supercharged 6.0 in the world now, Should have it back on the road in about 4-6 weeks, hopefully it will not share the same fate. Oh, and i will add there is no way that car sold for $135k, that's just not going to happen. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
cowchaser Report post Posted April 4, 2008 Bad, bad, bad news..... It's too bad that the same newspaper they used as "proof of date" in the ebay add, has to anounce the misfortune of the car only a couple of weeks later. (the ebay pic didn't proof a lot to me to be honest) And no, I wouldn't pay 135K for this car; although it might look like a bargain these cars are not built to be modded IMHO. Good the driver is safe BTW ! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ascari_2 Report post Posted September 7, 2008 Here's what I don't understand. People spend mega $$$ to install force-fed induction systems yet they will do nothing to reduce the heat in the engine bay, insulate the fuel lines, or install fire extinguisher systems. What's so difficult about coating the exhaust pipes with ceramic, or installing shut-off valves which cut the fuel if there is a sudden pressure loss. Or at least install an engine-bay fire extinguisher. A local Supra owner has a system in his car where once a rip-cord is pulled, the car is filled with foam. Might not be great for the interior but sure as hell beats a fire. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
