  2. 1 last question carlos please,. did you get the right side dash working ok in the end ? i ask cos obviously its the important side as its got the oil warnings etc on that side,. they come on when turning the ignition etc (and please tell supralookin i was only having a laugh back, im not on one or anything )
  3. hya Carlos, what happened with the window misting up was just me realy,. basicaly it was pouring down rain outside,. gets into the car and im soaking,#the moment i sat in the car the windows started misting anyhow, i didnt even know what to switch on or whatever to demist the windows,i had the heaters blowing on me feet and face etc,. anyhow once i knew what was going on it was sweet,there usualy clear of mist now in about 60 seconds honest and the interior does get lovely and warm another "to be honest" is that i never ever fancied a Supra,. as mentioned only bought this cos it was local.,but i gotta say im totaly besotted with the car, i realy adore it i intend on doing it up as standard but mint with not a blemish or mark on it.,i use a mechanic who worked for the police / fire service /ambulances as a mechanic and he`s gonna check everything out and anything that isnt right im gonna pay and have it sorted. put it this way i love the car so much even if the engine blew up tommorow i would go and buy a new engine which brings me to 1 thing thats kinda scaring me a little,. there is a little noise . . . . . lol its like a quiet sowing machine noise which kinda climbs as the revs does,. its quiet tho i had this on my last car and i put it down to the noise the injectors make or maybe the Fan spinning ,. i dunno ,anyone have this sound ? is it normal ? maybe its just me
  4. i have no problem getting in and out of the car once i have loosened my surgical support ...
  5. you were too ! cheers for that if superman was real ! you would be him ! lol
  6. supralookin, as far as forums go i truly have lots of experience,. for example i know i prob made a minor offence by posting the links to my music but i know its kinda tolerated a little. my forum has had nearly 1 million hits in 12 months and ive been building,running and admining forums and websites for 4 years now i am a master me saying in my last post to you "yes i am actualy" etc,... just a wind up im just so ashamed that ive been going on saying, ive been doing this so many years blah blah etc ,. kinda bragging a little.. - didnt mean too
  7. actualy yeh i have. you should of posted something like,. "i cant believe ive sold my car to a knobhead" would of been more straight to the point realy,
  8. hello, sorry i havent introduced myself yet, theres no forum named to do this,. anyhow, my name is Darren, i am 40 years old, i have had a driving licence for 18 years. i have had a motorcycle licence for 23 years., in 18 years of driving cars i have had 5 cars including this supra., and longest ive been without a car was 6 months. i am a sales manager as 9 - 5 , but my true love is producing music,i have done this since i was 14 , when i was 17 i went on a Uk tour with the band i was singer in. this was a punk rock band.and i still recieve letters from all over the world, more recently , for example 1993 a diff band i was in was warm up act for the prodigy in blackpool., now i take more a backseat with music and run a website for modern music artists ( usualy struggling unpaid artists) if anyone would like to listen to any music please feel free ,were at http://www.trancecreator.com and quite a lot of trancey / techno music by me here : http://www.trancecreator.com/Tcv6/jamroom/bands/1/ I have been a member at cruise blackpool for about 2 and a half years now., i have never been on a cruise,and more often than not i prefer my cars standard. here is a picture of me taken last week (recently had hair cut from long hair ) http://www.trancecreator.com/jpneumo-private/various-magery/darren.gif --------------------------------------------------------------------------- thats my introduction out of the way--------------------------------------- so anyhow, as you can see theres no spectacles,. or bald hair or grey hairs,. , also the heater matrix is fine., also i found the petrol cap release toggle the 1st nite i drove it,. another point of interest,.. i didnt buy the car cos it was a supra , i was actualy looking for an Rx7 for 6 months,, i simply bought the car because it was cheap,.. local... and looked good without any mods at all., the only 1 things tha bugs me about the car and has from day 1 is the exhaust ,. yes it sounds gorgeus,. but without any baffles it can be annoying to neighbours , especially when sometimes i leave home early in the mornings. and it was this loud when delivered... i didnt take the baffles out. also the steering lock,.. its damaged,. it doesnt lock. also the steering wheel cover has been lost., this might of occured when an attempt to repair the steering lock was going on... again wasnt me. for those that didnt join in on the trash fest ,.. you should be proud good people. for those that did ,well all i can say is i think your assumptions may be your downfalls in life
  9. if you can recieve channel 5 ok, then you shouldnt have a problem realy,. i take it you have gone thru the install , like :::: on remote ::::::::::::: sellect menu,.. select fist time install, select yes,. it will scrooll across screen etc then its done also check your antenna cable is going into the freeview box,. and away you go,.. if its either techwood, matsui or mitsubishi let me know,,. theres been 1 or 2 duff models in these ranges
