  1. Sounds about the right sort of size in GB
  2. I Blame Hollywood.... The Fast and the Furious comes to mind. If it were not for them then the Supra would probably not have the Chav appeal that it does at the moment, sale prices would be higher, insurance would be lower, and we would not getting constantly asked "Do you have NOS??"
  3. Just make sure if your fitting a Front Mount Intercooler you duct it properly, otherwise it may perform worse than your stock Side mount intercooler.... What make intercooler did you buy?
  4. Have a look to see if it is your crank pully try to move the pully with your hand if you can rock the pully then best get your car on a flatbed and taken to a garage asap - dont run your engine anymore until its fixed.... Mine was loose and it chewed up the woodruff key luckly it was repairable but it almost meant i either spent the money on a bottom end rebuild or a new engine... not worth leaving
  5. Not for me one of my mates. He has a BMW M3 E46 on a 2002 plate, he has serviced the car regularly by BMW and has had the car for 3 years. Basically he is in need of a low mileage 2nd hand engine or a reconditioned one. For some reason BMW say (maybe a Failure with the Vanos unit) the Cams have worn very strangely but as a result of this has dumped a lot of the Cam material around the engine, which has scored the Cylinder head bearings and bearing housings and possibly damaged the bottom half of the engine as well.....not good. BMW have advised him not to try and repair the engine as replacing the cylinder head alone is near £8k !! They have advised that he either spend a little more on a new engine which is £12k or get a good low mileage 2nd hand unit then have it tested (leak down, compression test, Bore scope etc) to see if it’s ok. The thing is he is having difficulty finding these engines does anyone know anyone that could get this engine or a company etc....
  6. Stupid price ! £110k lol If I was going to be that stupid on spending that amount of money on a Caterham i would rather make a suite out of £50 notes and still have change !! I would rather have a supercar like a lambo, or a ferrari ! Totally pointless rubbish !!
  7. I have to admit they are brilliant driving tunes listen to these as well !!
  8. A mixture really, Some classic Trance, Hard trance & Hard house, maybe some rock here and there,but mainly hardcore. Artists.. Hard Trance - Guyver, OGR etc. Hard house - Lisa Lashes etc, Organ Doners etc Hardcore - Darren Styles, Hixxy, Dougle & Gammer, Joey Riot etc Rock - Rage Against the machine, Amercian Headcharge, Guns and Roses, Metalica etc
  9. 1st dibs on the rear facelifit lights..... if no one has already. PM me a price And also the Whole Stock Airbox system,
  10. I need a builder to build me a dwarf wall for my conservatory (1 wall being full height to the house) and lay the concreate base. Not a huge job i know lol
  11. My wife is insured on my supe hardly drives it though as she has a MR2. No one else though !
  12. I think we should all stop arguing and have a cup of tea
  13. Would be funny if it did not prove anything lol
  14. All i think it is is that Ferrari is pushing all their toys out of their pram because their drivers dont know how to drive well in the wet.....and F1 cant have a "rookie" being a world champion now can they... makes the sport look to easy and shows up the other drivers. Its got to political, there should be no decision after the race unless someone has put someone else in a wall and then won....then there would be reason to demote someone. If no one crashes due to the overtaking manovuer and whoever gains a place by cutting a corner gives it back then whoever wins.....wins !! why cant it be like that !!
  15. A proper Carlsburg finish probably the best finish i have seen in the last couple of years !! Really good
  16. This will be the bearing mate very unlikly to be a hub... if it is a front hub then i have a 2nd hand hub with bearing that you can have i dont think they are Left or Right dependant.
  17. Dont worry i am not fitting to my car or anyone elses , you have PM I should of said this in the first instance lol
  18. Yeah only going to trial them to see if they are any good... Will report back when i get them..
  19. I once saw a "Stiff nipples" air conditioning Van http://www.touchsouthall.com/business/list/bid/1871679 Didnt have any pics of nipples on the Van that i remember...(never thought i would ever say that lol)
  20. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/TOYOTA-SUPRA-MK4-JZA80-93-96-FRONT-VENTED-BRAKE-DISCS_W0QQitemZ180282987938QQcmdZViewItem?hash=item180282987938 Has anyone had any experiance of these good or bad.
  21. Got asked if my car was a deisel as it had turbos.... Was asked was that an FTO before i put a bodykit on it....however my car has a stock exterior !! I went to a local garage in lymington to see about a service a while back, the garage owner came out and said "oh yeah i know these...nice to work on... although had a few issues with the 4 wheel drive system" i said they dont have 4 wheel drive they only came in RWD in which he then pretty much argued back that they do... in which i left promptly.
