  1. I have heard alot of good stuff about the ASI radiator the welds on the rad are good but not sure how well it cools compared to a stock unit or the more expensive fluidyne rads. My brother has one on his supe and has not had a problem as yet. Worth noting that if you have an auto you will need to get a seperate transmission cooler as the stock unit has it built into the rad.
  2. As above reallly. For a Jspec TT. Can be new or used - if used needs to be in good working condition.
  3. Got a strange clicking sound coming from the power steering pump, i know its probably on the way out but could this be caused by something else say low PS fluid? Has anyone had a strange regular clicking sound coming from the PS pump?
  4. Boot blind only mate, unless you mean the boot floor panel?
  5. K20a (civic type r) engine with a rotrex supercharger kit
  6. Can't wait, soo looking forward to it I know there has been issues with Bangkok etc but we are staying well clear of that area. Landing in Hong Kong then on to phuket. These next couple of days work are going to be slllllooooww
  7. Sorry mate i didnt see that he said Gentle - should of read it properly.
  8. Metal Gear solid theme tune on MSG4 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QAkrjpWRqww
  9. You hit fuel cut mate, totally normal thing to happen - i guess you have a FCD set at 1.2bar? if so it may of just popped over 1.2 and then let fuel cut signal through.
  10. Another thing i thought the stock sequential pipes were too restrictive for any Big bhp??
  11. That kit looks intresting - not sure about the HP figures but maybe possible with supporting mods such as high lift cams, larger injectors proper fueling etc - Shipping to the UK will be expensive though.
  12. I used to have one of these before the supra, they are nice cars very fun to drive. Your right about the paintwork it is really thin, you should be glad you didn't get a red one they are going pink already. (i had a silver one). They are good fun cars, they tend to eat front tyers and 1st gear is pretty much useless in the wet at busy roundabouts or junctions (so bear that in mind). When it comes to replacing the tyre's try to cough up the money and buy bridgestone potenza's, from what i read on the civic type r forum the car was developed with them so don't be tempted to buy falken (although a good tyre anyway) as the tyre walls are not as stiff as the potenza's and the car will feel a sloppy round the bends - unless of course you find a tyre that is as stiff as the potenza's but i never found one although that was 4 years ago now, I found servicing reasonable price, and fuel its not too bad to if you stay off the vtec (but who's gonna do that lol) Just another thing, vtec will not work until the engine has reached operating temp, it will still rev high but the high lift cams will not engage so you wont feel a kick when it hits 5800rpm. Also these cars do consume a bit of oil and again the vtec system wont run if the oil is too low, there is no on board system to tell you this the case so if you feel the car is not hitting vtec ts usually cos the car is still too cold or the oil level is not high enough so keep a top up bottle in the boot. You may like the gear knob now... in the winter its hell frozen over (its like putting you hand on a block of ice to change gear ) Discs and Pads are an easy change on this car too, no harder than the supra anyway. Oh and get yourself a seatbelt harness pad, not for you but for the seat you see the seatbelt rubs on the side of the upper bolster and can wear the Alcantra, Also try not to wear jeans with things that can get caught on the seat fabric as it can pull the material.
  13. Sick sick man - depraved disgusting & twisted.
  14. great little things for target practice
  15. Saw this the other day, i was impressed with it.... i got the impression it was more grown up still had some nice cars and a better plot (although still was pretty lame but better than the other 3 films). Not sure why everyone is going on about supra's not being in it... its not a film about supra's.
  16. Watched the 3 episodes last night...... FAIL
  17. http://www.cartextcheck.co.uk/ I used them for my most recent purchase, the info given was not very detailed but useful.
  18. Lol i have already started but on a bit of a smaller scale Now things like big single are possible Im not too into getting bodykits etc so i will probably just stay focused on the engine and making the car spotless etc
  19. Just paid off the rest of the loan i had for the supra and now she is 100% mine, feels good Now where are those mods....... hehe.
