I hope you don't mind foreigners

[EMPEROR]

Hello all,
My name is Lacho and I live in Мünster, Germany for some time. Sorry, but my German is still pretty bad.
So I have one 98 RSP SZ-R (NA 6sp) converted by myself to a RZ-S (and someday hopefully to pure RZ).
This is how I bought the car:


Some work in progress:








This is the car as it stands currently:




Unfortunately the car was left behind when I moved to Germany (fortunately it stays with my brother for now).
.
.
.
But the good news is that I just bought myself another project, that I intend to restore and drive here. It's a 2000 QuickSilver RZ-S (TT VVTi Tiptronic). It has a lot of work to be done on it, but hopefully it will be back on the road soon enough. Front side collision, but it's only 40k (mixed km and miles).



I am also a member in UK, US and AU forum and contributed to documenting the VVTi wiring harness as it wasn't available back then in anything different than Japanese...

So if you have any VVTi electrical problem, don't hesitate to drop me a line. I will be always glad to help to the best I can (or at least do my best trying ).

That's it from me for now
Cheers!

[kingschnitte]

Welcome on bo(a)rd
Hope you will enjoy even it's mainly German in here!
Got some more pics of your second supra? Would be interesting to see the Restauration

[EMPEROR]

@JackEnox thanks mate I am originally from Bulgaria.

@kingschnitte, let's hope this will help me learn German language faster
I didn't post more picture of the second Supra intentionally... because it ain't a pretty picture The damage is a lot, but I just couldn't let a 2000 40k Supra to go to the scrap yard...

Feel warned :









Unfortunately the restoration process will not begin withing the next few months, but once I start it, I will post a new thread here.
I took it complete minus the engine, so the left engine from the 3rd pic will go in the car. The engine is missing a lot of parts, so I should make a list and start looking for parts. Then build up like LEGO (just like I did with the RSP Supra)

Hi Emperor.
Wow that`s sad to see
Looks a litte bent from the rear too. (gaps at the left rear light especially)
But i´m looking forward to see how it turns out.

The rsp one is a Beauty tho

Cheers

[EMPEROR]

@Ijsbrand ... nah it's just a front collision The rear is like new, although dirty on the pics. The angle of the picture takes makes it look this way. The project is about to start soon enough, just not straight away as the car needs to travel long, before it reaches the final destination with me (not like in the movie though ).
Thanks for the compliments man

[Ijsbrand]

Okay, that`s good to hear.
Will it stay Auto?
Yeah let`s hope it has nothing in common with the movie .

Thanks for saving another Supra mate

[EMPEROR]

Yes, this one will stay Tiptronic and as a daily driver, the other one is already a 6sp.

I've bought it so it doesn't get parted out and then the chassis to the car crusher... The vultures were already gathered for parts, but the seller is a really great guy and decided to give it to me, so I can save her So the thanks goes to the original seller!

And one more from my RSP, just because

Welcome Emperor and greetings from Münster. Hope to see you on the streets. We already have 4 supras here.
Good luck with the rebuild!

I know Paul with the black LHD, I also have seen one grey RHD Supra and one I believe brown?! (looked like foil over original color). Don't know if it's the same grey one or another. Don't know about any other. Unfortunately haven't seen the Supras much around and haven't had the chance to meet any of you But it seems there is enough "material" for small Supra meets on a coffee or something
