  3. Hi All, Just after a pair of Cam covers for the supra TT. Want to refurbish and repaint them before i take mine off so i can replace straight away. Rich
  4. Hi All, How do i find out who owns a piece of land, that seems to be laying to waste:eyebrows:? Does anyone work for the land registry on here? Rich.
  5. Ok just had a garage try and diagnose this, and he says the sound is coming from the front upper passenger side suspension arm?? Not sure how this could be making a clicking sound?? Has anyone got any ideas or could confirm that this could cause a clicking sound? About a year ago i had R2 racing bushes installed all around the car, so i am dumfounded on what this could be.
  6. Cool.. however he still needs to be careful when installing the kit and getting the fuelling right (I would imagine the fuel rate on the solenoid is manually controlled via different jets etc) If it runs too Rich there wont be much point in having NOS as it will decrease power, and if it runs to lean it will lead to detonation and having that whilst 100% WOT is not what you want....goodbye pistons...:blink: I think its the ZEX wet kit where you have some limited control over rate of fuel that is mixed with the NOS via the fuel solenoid. As far as I remember It monitors the pressure in the bottle and it adjusts the rate of fuel delivered so you don’t get any Rich or Lean spots when using NOS. As long as its set up correctly then there is no reason why he will have problems but he should be aware that it could be difficult getting the fuel/nos mixture right.
  7. How are you going to control the Fuelling/NOS mix? Are you installing an additional fuelling system such as an extra fuel injector which is activated when WOT is applied which would be mounted in or near the throttle body to make sure the mixture does not lean out too much?
  8. I'm just curious what type of NOS kit it is? Direct Port? Wet, Multipoint.... who makes it? Would be good to see what sort of useable gains and how long you can boost for (without blowing welds on the intake hehe:)) how are you going to control the Fuelling/NOS mix? Although i am curious about this, I would not be interested in installing NOS on my car as I cannot see the point of it as its only a temporary performance increase (I'm all for repetitive performance) and If I was to use it as a "last resort" then I don’t think I would feel as satisfied as if would have been if I didn’t have to use it..... would feel kind of cheated. Each to their own though mate Its your pride and joy at the end of the day and you can do with it as you like, doesnt really matter what other people think, hope it goes well mate. Keep us posted, would be good to see it in action (Although when you do a little less of the film quotes would be good:))
  9. Gonna Wash her when I get home, then going take her out for a drive. Yay
  10. And she passed yay, no advisories either. I'm happy
  11. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/manchester/10386731.stm A rapper is tying up police emergency lines by bombarding a force with nuisance calls. He dials 999 before rapping to operators at Greater Manchester Police - who are not allowed to cut him off. Despite officers blocking more than 60 sim cards, the man has plagued them since January 2009. In the past three months he has made 700 calls, some lasting up to five minutes, costing the force £1,000 a month Does this person not have anything better to do?? I mean what if there is an emergency and someone dies etc cos of this TW** Mindless, stupid, irritating waste of skin.
  12. Hope its better than the last 2 series...
  13. Supra has her MOT today Hope she passes.... come on ol girl
  14. As far as i know nothing, not even a follow up on it.
  15. A little while ago, our cat had an accident and mangled his leg somehow (still baffled on how he did it) He got all fixed up at the vet but they needed to keep him overnight which we agreed to pay for (treatment and boarding - we made sure that this was clear at the time) however during his overnight stay he developed a slight wheeze. Now apparently "they could not get hold of us" (although no voicemails were left etc) so they decided to take upon themselves to do a number of x-rays and administer some drugs to investigate this new "problem". Now we paid for the original bill upfront (to the tune of a grand) and now they are asking for more money for the work they did which we didn’t know about or ever authorised? Where do I stand legally with this new bill? Do i have the right of not to pay it as this was unauthorised work?

    Ahha, but would you recommend it to anyone else?
  18. Ahhhh i see i should of read that his post was related to the Soarer lol whoopsy. Although both cars share similar components, you kinda expect it to be about a supra being on a supra forum lol...
  19. The A340E gearbox will not work with the suprastick, as mentioned above the A340E is controlled electronicly. You see it uses electronic solenoids that control the flow of auto fluid and pressure, instead of the older style autoboxes that used valves operated by rotational rev's or shifter position to change fluid control to make a gear change. You need to electronicly control the box, and its not simple.
