    Fog light

    Update on this Took the Supra for its mot today Passed no problem I had put the fog light back on the underside of the bumper It was a different tester I turned the light on ;he barely glanced at it said ok I then explained what had happened concerning the mod for the fog light He looked both bemused and confused and couldn’t get why it hadn’t passed in the first place The mod in the light looked ok to him Now I’m confused

    Thanks for the advice Rider I will check the appeal procedure out I know this not a big thing, but I really feel aggrieved about it The guys at SSI over the years have done scores of this mod for Supras all over Ireland: mine is the first fail Colin at SSI is now wondering if he can ever do this conversion again if my fail will be the norm Will let you know how I get on Thanks again

    Thanks again Rider I am going to put this to the manager It makes sense to me what you are saying I’ll measure the distance between the bulbs in the morning It’s bucketing down here and has been all day Fed up and annoyed

    Thanks Chaoticentity I see the difference in the clusters I still don’t get it. The guys that look after my Supra at SSI have put umpteen cars through the mot with no problems Just my flamin’ luck!

    Oh feck Chaoticentity Thought the clusters were the same on j spec and U.K. Might have to swallow my pride

    Fog light

    You have a good point Rider Measuring between the filaments The regulation doesn’t state a physical gap between the actual lens;as the gap is between the lights, which has to refer to the bulb, as this is the light source Think I will be paying the manager of the centre a visit Thankyou Rider

    Fog light

    Failed the mot N Ireland Had the mod done to put the fog light into a brake light Worked fine Was told car failed,because the fog light is not 100mm from the next light ??? Argued for 25 minutes on this Manager showed me the (NI) regulations It makes no sense to me at all So now have to revert to an external lamp Not happy to say the least
  14. If you use super unleaded you won’t be using E10 : this is what an article I read said
  15. Revenue from fuel tax is £28 billion:revenue from Road tax is £1 billion The government has often said that fuel tax funds the NHS What will fill that particularly large hole if there is no petrol or diesel ?
  16. Not to my taste but did like the wheels Like to know where they had the seats recovered for a grand

  20. Litchfield motors have tuned the Mkv to 420 bhp with a “simple” tune They’re developing a new titanium exhaust which they say will push it to 450 Still feel cold towards it ; but it will be quick

    Spigot rings

    I phoned the Ultralite dealer and you were right Dnk The size is 60.1mm on a 73mm hub for the Supra on these wheels Typical N Ireland though ,the postage was more expensive than the rings Cars going into SSI next week for good check over Thanks again Dnk

    Spigot rings

    Thanks DNK for the information I’ll buy a set just in case they’re needed I live on a main road, no driveway or off-road anywhere Changing a wheel becomes a pain I swear some drivers aim to see just how close they can get to you without flattening you Bit of a rant but have had more than a couple of near misses Thanks again mate Appreciate it
