I'm thinking about acquiring a JZA80, but it's an issue of parking space where I live. I live on Queens Wharf and our apartment has two underground parks, but one of them has a huge concrete pillar taking up half of one.

So really we only have 1.5 parks which are currently occupied by my flatmates 89 fiat uno and my 04 hyundai getz that I want to sell.

By numbers the Supra is 145mm wider than the Getz, but I figure the best way to see if it fits is to try it with one.

So anybody got a jza80 and a spare 30min?

thats an awesome request! ive never seen anything like it!

go on - someone lend the man your JZA80 for the purposes of making him get one himself

Haha yeah, the getz fits fine with its mirrors out. So if a jza80 is anything like an ae111, it should have the electronic mirror retract that I could do before squeezing into the park

Dont forget to leave enough space for you to get out of the car :wink:

Stott69 - oh that would be awesome cheers. That reminds me, there's a silver GS300 that parks off to the left behind me. Hoping that wont get in the way

siren676 - can always do the squished exit? Takes me back to the Trueno days :lol:

If you can, reverse one of the cars in. That way you can have a bigger gap between the drivers doors and immovable objects

by **Stott69** » Sat Jul 30, 2011 3:18 pm

if theres a gs300 in there, Aristo should fit as the are the same thing. pm me your number

Si - probably the Uno. Squeezing a Supra in backwards might not be too fun lol.

Stott69 - he gets his own park that's open on 3 sides, you'll see for yourself. PM'd

I currently only half the funds at the moment

Haha, yeah, I was considering buy that V8 one before I picked up my current one then decided to stick with the 2JZ... plus uncontrollable wheel spin was more then a little daunting :lol:

I'm sure it sold to that guy for 21k though, profit margin much? :roll:

All good Potatoskin, just playing. You just missed out on the 90,000 km series 2, red, stock, 6-speed SZ-R on TradeMe about a month ago! Sold for 10k and was up in Palmerston
