  1. Wow, have just seen the video tribute and I'm in bits. The bit where the ambulance arrived was very moving. Very powerful video. Thought are with you all at this very difficult time. Mike
  2. Very sorry to read this, sounds like he was fighting the impossible fight with all the determination he had. RIP Ricardo.
  3. Video taken by one of our NSX friends at the start of Saturday's drive
  4. come on Craig pay attention

  6. Nice work Ibrar, but I think you'll need a respray, you appear to have polished half the red paint off your passenger side front wing. Mike
  7. I think when I counted it was NSX 9:6 Supra, plus the Morgan and the S2000, Awesome weekend, and totally agree the people made the event. It's always refreshing to find that there is no snobbery or cliques amongst true petrolheads, everyone was happy to chat, and even though the group was as large as it was we were all just one big happy family. I'm sure that the NSX guys felt the same I'm just sorry I couldn't stick around for today's run. Mike
  8. I like the idea of not needing to remove the bumper though - that's worth a bit to me.
  9. Thread resurrection: has anyone bought a set recently, do you know if there is still a discount code?
  10. Has the weather been this hot since installing the FMIC? We're you sat in traffic or making good progress?
  11. it is, but it's not an automatic thing, you need to get a mod to activate it for you. hopefully this will serve as your request
  12. I know that, but he said he hasn't done anything to the car for 5 years, would suggest it's nearly ready for cam belt change,
  13. If you are taking the cam belt off why not replace with new? coil pack clips ( you will probably find some will break when removing them) Edit just saw the coil pack clips on your wish list.
  14. Cheers Chris I meant to update this thread following our conversation yesterday but forgot.
  15. Cheers for the input guys, will see what the forum trader has to say and then pursue Toyota
  16. As some of you know I had the Supra recovered to my local Toyota main dealer with a failing crank pulley in October last year. I wasn't overly impressed With their service tbh. especially the fact that they didn't have the required SST and eventually used a 1/2" drive gun to complete the job, and the extra miles and full boost whilst in their care. Anyway I got my car back and was just pleased to have had the crank pulley fixed. Fast forward to now, and the Supra is currently in the care of a respected trader who has expressed concerns with the crank pulley. They've just completed a repair to the PS pump, and is thinking it might be caused by the crank pulley fault. Now how do I go about raising a dispute with Toyota. If there is an issue with the crank pulley I don't want them trying again, but if I have the fault rectified before they see it how can I raise a dispute. Anyone know how best to broker this issue with Toyota. I obviously feel I've a claim for poor workmanship, but given their inability to resolve the problem with such a critical part I'm loathe to let them try again. But wouldn't want to have to collect the car with a known issue only to show the problem for a claim. I'd rather have the fault fixed and claim afterwards, but realise Toyota would want to at least see the problem, and be offered a chance to resolve it. Would a report from the trader and photo evidence be enough for a claim after the work had been rectified? At the moment this is all hypothetical as the trader wants to investigate further, but I trust their gut instinct enough to prepare for the inevitable.
  17. Hello my fellow traitor. Originally from Halifax and now living in Preston. Mike
  18. I'm not sure about Sunday, being fathers's day. But Steph would be in on Monday regardless, so we can sort something. It's been in he shed for a while, but should be okay. I'll check to make sure tomorrow. Mike
  19. Hey Ellis, I've one you are welcome to borrow. Mike
  20. I know what you mean - he was a big part of this forum, he'll always be here.
  21. You could try Steve Manley @ Inchcape Toyota Oxford, his contact details should be easy to find on this forum. He may be prepared to ship internationally. Edit: http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?41383-Very-cheap-Toyota-OEM-parts&highlight=Steve+Manley Mike
