  1. That was a nice drive back home.. two Porsches and two supra's Although for some reason my second tub was intermittent which i have to investigate why - may have a boost leak (boost slowly tailing off)
  2. Great idea, who's going to get this sorted then?
  3. Unfortuantly he does not have them Anyone else - please Traders !!
  4. Drove past you in the fast lane then moved over flashed my hazards, then drove into basingstoke with you behind me then you overtook and i was behind you. Lovely looking supe by the way, very clean, although half of the LED strip on your boot does not seem to be working.
  5. Is there anyway of telling if your front suspension arms are slightly bent i.e after a small prang? I am getting serious inside tyer wear on the tyer which is about 2cm wide and the rest of the tyer is fine (Hardly worn) To give you an idea the wheel is less than 1000 miles and this 2cm section has worn past the tread !! Now i have had the wheels and alignment done and the opposit tyer is wearing correctly, i dont know how to check this or what to check??
  6. Does anyone have the part numbers of these? So i can order them from toyota, i need to do this as i have broken ones.
  7. Anyone have any they want to sell
  8. I Need to have the exhaust mount that is in front of the fuel tank which connects just behind the Diff, mine has split and my exhaust is knocking on the gearbox. It looks like the attached (terrible drawing i know) Does anyone have one
  9. I wonder if mine has the green underfloor lighting as my door lock lights up when i unlock or lock the car or pull the handle ??
  10. Yeah i would be interested as well We are talking about this one right ?
  11. I honestly did not think it would do anything - just seems a waste of £50 to me (thats how much i have seen them for) i havent got an issue with grounding on mine but if i ever do i will just clean then standard points....
  12. Are there any point to these and what do they actualy do?
  13. I live in chandlers ford mate. Not really urgent but needs to be done fairly quickly how much do you want for them?
  14. As above really i need to get the breather hoses that are over the top of the spark plug packs, so i can change my sparks as i have developed a misfire and the sparks are due to be changed.
  15. I want 30mpg on the motorway !! Tell me how - pllleease im lucky if i get 14mpg
  16. Trips to and from work in the supe are getting to exepensive doing 100 miles a day is costing me £££'s so i have decided to get another runabout, its going to be a Ford Fiesta 1.1 LX M reg with 36k miles on the clock and looked after by well my mum, she decided to upgrade to a Nissan Primera GT (she wanted something a bit more nippy lol) and had this spare the nice thing is i am getting it for free hehe !! All i got to do is get it to my house, and get it an MOT I worked out that i will be saving £220 a month on petrol lol So the money saved will be going towards some fun bits
  17. Passed you going past the vauxhall garage in my supe.
  18. Its usualy your plugs old or incorrectly gapped but could be your coilpacks if you change them and its still happening There seems to a be a constant debate on here about what sparks you use, lots of people stick to Denso Iriduim IK20 or IK22's (if your running BPU) for the TT's but i have just found a set of NGK Iridum sparks for cheaper and i cant tell the difference of them - (Other post in the thread from me)
  19. They are £5.72 each and i cant tell the difference between the IK20 and these?
  20. No a missfire is like a missed heart beat (murmer) If you have a missfire you can uaualy feel it through the body work or can hear it. if you were to make a sound every second it may go something like this....(bom is the normal engine sound babom is a missfire sound) bom... bom... bom... bom..babom.bom..babom... bom... bom... bom... If you let your car idle and open your door and rest your hand on top of the glass you should be able to feel a little jolt everytime it missfires if not then you dont have a missfire if you do then well you do. The sound and the jolt should be at the same time. Everyone has permission to call me crazy
  21. I don't like Clarkson's "i am always right attitude" mind you i don't think many do, he is kind of like a person who insists on giving an opinion but cannot take anyone else's i cant stand people like that, even so Top gear is still the best in my view. They have the three different levels of presenters for the three different attitudes and markets, firstly you have Clarkson who i believe would appeal more to BMW drivers rather than anyone else, you have Richard who i think appeals to the younger to middle aged markets, and you have James which is your typical classic car driver that is a little more sedate for the older generation. 5th Gear try to keep up by doing everything 1 step behind Top gear and when they think they are 1 step ahead its still crap. I think 5th gear should stick to its name and not bother looking at cars with more gears than that cos they just ruin the review by talking about MPG. anyway essay over lol.
  22. Any news yet? Sorry to hear this mate - hope your cat pulls through.
  23. As above really if there a few of us would be good to go in a convoy or something !
