  1. Cams made a really nice difference to my supra (256in 264ex), obviously Syed has tried them in his and wasnt impressed...
  2. May I step in..... I have a new contact who can definitely get a big discount on these kits, he will only give me a price if I can provide him with a chassis number from a UK spec car; so can someone give me this info ? If so, ill order 3 kits in.
  3. While we are on the subject of electrical faults, the "green ring" around the drivers door lock is permanently lit , this causes the battery to flatten after about 3 days. Can anyone suggest a fix ?
  4. Im only mucking around Chris Tony almost certainly has the fastest track evo in the UK, he has spent well over £35k on mods so far and his car is stunning! I think a lot of evo owners would be deeply saddened to hear a £3.5k 1.4ltr Mazda gave him a run for his money...ROFL. As you say,Tony is a top bloke , complete petrol head (he just bought a set of AP 6 pots for his M5 from me !) and he speaks very highly of your too. Justin
  5. Motec's get a hell of a slating over on the evo list; even the rally boys seem to be using Gems now. Apparantly the processer speed is not in the same league as Gems/Autronic either. I know what you are saying about knock control, but what if you get a bad batch of fuel ? This is road use we are talking about, not race cars running non pump fuel. To be honest Chris, i'll happy to take whatever you recommend even if it is motec, but I cannee afford £7k for mapping !!! BTW, one of my customers said he gave you a run for your money in your RX7 in his evo6....you know Tony Rodriguez ?
  6. You can fit a Motec to anything if you have the time and money ! Motec's are overpriced, over-rated, and not as good as you might think. No knock control and idle control for starters! I believe it is possilbe to "piggy back" a Motec with the stock ECU controlling many of the standard functions, mmmmm...... Paul's "re-mapped" stock ECU is a very good answer; I know, because I have gone this route with my evo. There is one problem with this though, it may still be a bit of a problem running larger injectors, we shall see....... Justin
  7. I wouldn't own a supra without it ;-) Ive got a few kits in stock £619.95 inc vat and del (includes adjustable and launch control) - retail £1050 !!!! Justin 01233 500384
  8. Cheers Chis, it is SOUL destroying to see the supe sitting there totally un-usable. Biggest problem is the turbos, somehow there is no control of boost - hits over 2 bar sometimes then .5 at others - weird. The car also shakes at speed, Chris reckons this is due to a shagged tyre which took a hit in the crash. Im getting desperate now, cant wait till the spring and cant live with the lag that Christain has (infact, Chris wont even fit the turbos without an ECU !!!) Perhaps I should bite the bullet and buy a motec ???? Justin
  9. Well, my poorly supra continues to sit in my garage, been used just once in 1 year and 2 months 8-( There's a whole host of things not quite right about it, such as shame ..... I've asked Chris Wilson to complete the work, but Chris wants to wait until the AEM ecu is out before fitting the 2835's,680cc injectors and fixing all the faults. Does anyone know when this unit will be ready ? Its driving me nuts not being able to use my supra 8-( Yours, absolutely totally frustrated and gutted..... Justin
  10. This is what id do, in order : Stage 1> Blitz Nur-spec cat-back exhaust £543+v Racelogic traction control (adjustable+launch) £1,050inc vat&del HKS de-cat £145+v (second cat only) Eibach springs £185+v Stage 2> Blitz SBC-id boost controller (the dogs!) £525+vat HKS induction (£155+vat) HKS S40 plugs (£14.50+vat each) HKS or Blitz front mount intercooler I can do great prices on all these parts, an amazing 12.5% discount on Blitz; the Racelogic TC for £619.95inc Vat and del (in stock) and possibly up to 10% on the HKS. Stage 3> re-mortgage you house first Justin Torque IC 01233 500384
  11. I thought the Nur-Spec was louder than the hiper ????? I am a *BIG* HKS fan, but have to admit, the Blitz definitely *IS* the best exhaust out there, actually, by quite a margin. Justin
  12. GT type does use a more efficient core; unfortunately HKS dont do one for the JZA80. S Type is £750+v core size 600x301x65 r type is £1385+v core size 600x302x97 Oh, pipe work on the R type is the lovely mirror polished stuff that makes my knees go wobbly.... Forget about power ratings, just buy the most expensive FMIC you can afford (an R type would be a worthwhile mod on a stock supra).
  13. £480 used to be the "group buy" price, Racelogic put the prices up a while back and I cant even get them at that price now with trade discount and bulk purchase discount 8-( I also joined in the 300 club group buy and got mine for £480, just a few days before I was about to pay £1050 for one !!!!!!! Talk about good timing....ROFL.
  14. Theres your answer Matt, ill order you up some UK brakes, you book me in for a big install and ill give you a wad of cash.....whatday say? ROFL ! Justin
  15. Right, just to put an end to the confusion :o I am based in Ashford, Kent during the week where I concentrate on the mail order side of things. Phone number 01233 500384. The retail side is based at Formula 1 , which is the large shop on the A20 (not A21) opposite (almost) the main entrance to Brands (not the rear entrance ). Currently, im only there on Saturdays, which is the busy day. So, Rob, it is the shop you mentioned above with the large tarmac front, and not next to the Ferrari dealer.
