  1. Not sure Neil, not heard anyone talking about it, and with SupraPod only 2 weeks after I doubt it. There aren't many cars set up to compete anymore - and TOTB was never a success for Supras either - Elvington drag strip isn't kind. Dude has been in the past, but as I say I expect he'll be preparing for SupraPod JamieP isn't interested as (quite rightly) it is a long way to travel for him Kev Huntley doesn't run any more (car for sale) Brian (TDR) doesn't run any more (car sold) Jake has run in the past, but has no car anymore Without the competitors there's not much interest, and the spectator ticket price is very high given what's on offer. Mike
  2. Sorry to see you selling Jase, not seen you around for a while. Mike
  3. I don't believe Craig was talking about the bonnet scoop. The stock Intake system has a couple of feeds from the front bumper / radiator region. HTH Mike
  4. Ah Leon mate, I'm gutted for you. Will keep my eyes peeled. Was it the Black one or the white one? I can't remember which one you had kept. pictures of the black one here - just in case. Mike
  5. Don't all shout at once ... I'm underwhelmed by the response, I only hope it's because everyone was on their way to the Trafford Centre already. Mike
  6. Yeah I know, maybe we've just created a self fulfilling prophecy, but I really can't afford to take the chance this month. That said if a few names appear here in the next hour or so I'll come across. You could always pop down to JNW meet at Mascrat Manor - It used to be the place to go, unfortunately it took quite a tumble a couple of years ago, although it could be recovering. Sounds like a couple of guys might be going there. Mike
  7. try mlife -I think he was looking for some the other day. Mike
  8. Can we have a definite post up if anyone is coming to this - I've had an expensive weekend and could do without burning 1/2 tank of fuel to come across to find no one turned up. Last month there were 4 of us (1 Supra) and the month before there were only three of us (2 Supras). Given that Ian Ian was there on both it's not looking promising for tonight. Mike
  9. I'll take the underwhelming response as an indication not to bet on horses! Wish I'd taken that tip. No tips for the final race then :search:Mike
  10. going on a Stag do to York races today. Anyone have any tips? Never been before, and never bet on horses.Mike
  11. Whilst I appreciate this is just a thread to garner public opinion with regard to levels of interest. Have you approached a moderator (In particular Homer) to gain approval in principle for this group buy? Mike
  12. I thought that was for EGT sensors. The AFR should be further away, I believe the manual suggests a distance. That said mine has been in the first decat for years and had no issues. Mike
  13. No stroker kit, just a misunderstanding as to the engine capacity following a rebore. Mike
  14. In this instance it does move you out of park, so you should be able to push the car - unless the brakes have seized.
  15. Yes definitely can seize. I had the same problem on a Fiesta after only 4 months.
  16. how old is this, and what graphics does it have? will this run Lion when released ? Mike
  17. Only just seen this Martin, yeah I know I live in a cave. I have some pre-facelift rear lights if you are still in need. Glad you are okay. Mike
  18. where abouts are you looking Gavin? My house has the same construction (Ashton) 1930s, and although it's messy, I am using the roof for storage with the minimum of trouble. My slates are flat blue slates rather than preformed ones. One thing I found to help both insulate the space and reduce the amount of mortar was the silver "bubble wrap" style insulation stapled to the rafters, the mortar then falls onto this and slides to the eaves, but I will be looking at replacing the roof at some point too. Mike
  19. Dreamweaver is only a couple of hundred not a few K. not that I've any experience. Mike
  20. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/1994-JSpec-Toyota-Supra-3-2L-Twin-Turbo-/190545601729?pt=Automobiles_UK&hash=item2c5d6724c1#ht_2732wt_1139 I know the listing has ended, but I know the owner and he hasn't sold it, he's also up for negotiation, whether he'll go low enough for you is for you to find out. Car used to belong to Dash Rendar on here. Mike
  21. too late - Google has been and cached it. http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:oNC0SyL2RYYJ:www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php%3F238326-450BHP-UK-spec-toyota-supra-auto/page3+07809+415312&cd=3&hl=en&ct=clnk&gl=uk&source=www.google.co.uk though he deosn't seem too worried his mobile is all over google anyway, including but not limited to a site called nohandsmassage ?!? Mike
  22. RIP: I was surprised to learn that his "lazy" eye was due to losing an eye to Cancer very early in his life. I never realised he was also a voice actor in Shark Tale - which was on TV today. Made a great contribution to the Film and TV industry - sadly missed Mike
  23. Hold on a minute buddy!!!!!! I'm not trying to beat anybody. We all know KDW is the most famous, clever and bestest person in the whole of Denmark and my car will never be that good as it's the pinnacle of goodness, BUT, 1, what are all those wires an pipes around the brake and clutch servos, 2, why hasn't the O2 sensor been fitted into the midpipe where it can get it's optimum reading and be hidden, 3, Why is the EGT sensor in the turbo exhaust housing it's best off in runner 6 and again can be hidden. 4, why hasn't the loom been relocated through the bulkhead instead of it's current ugly position. 5, Please post pics up of your own supra please I'm interested. I've set out to built what IMO is MY dream supra, at the end of the day I'm not really arsed if no-one likes it as long as I do I'm happy. My comment about the most shaved engine bay was a joke but come to think of it stands as I've got a lot less in there that your illustrious leader has. I've built the WHOLE CAR on just short of 40K and that's the whole car. If I had a budget like KDW and the SKILLS ODVIOUSLY,,, who knows. Play nice gents Mike
