    Hello.

    If you managed the indiglo dials, you'll manage indicators Looks good though mate. I take it it's an NA?
  2. Paul keeps them in stock I think, I called him up the other day as I was replacing (doubling new seal on top of old one) my one. Recieved two days later.
  3. Come on JP!!, having just watched Jurgens GTR fire up, I need to see the competition before I lay money down
  4. Back in the game Jurgster.....back in the game You can tell it's going to sound monstrous at WOT. I can't wait to see/hear it this year. As far as I can see, you're the only one that's likely to give JP a hard time on the quarter. Excellent effort mate.
  5. This is Joe at suprapod last year, all the on board footage is from his car too.
  6. Joe, his name on here and driftworks is joeseff
  7. Good luck Ash, do us proud buddy. Keep a look out for my cousin, he's been building his drift machine up all year. Some of you will recognise him from suprapod last year......
  8. Bad times dude.......glad you're ok though mate. I know this might sound a bit selfish, but I don't suppose you want to sell the seats?
  9. Supraturbochris had this exact issue on his, after eliminating plugs, coil pack clips and connections. It turned out to be a coil pack.
  10. Car is finally back together, difference is very noticable. Getting the top bolt back into the carrier was even harder than removing it, due to having to worry about it lining up. I decided to use the stock car jack, and wind it against the gearbox and the transmission tunnel, so it did all the levering for me, leaving me with both hands free. Job done.
  11. A mate of mine is doing a track day on the 14th in his type R. I'm there doing some video for him. Talking to him yesterday about it, we've decided to have a little BBQ outside his pit area. If anyone fancies coming along for a chat, rat burger, and to watch some cars hooning round and round in circles. Feel free to turn up. It all kicks off at 1700hrs, so from then onwards. If you want to go on the track with your car, you'll have to enquire with Brands directly, I think it's around £130. (I don't think anyone will pass the noise regs though). Passenger passes are £10, and you need a helmet (I think you can hire them if you haven't got your own). My mate will happily take you out for a few laps, but he's a bit hardcore with weight, so he won't have passengers on every run.
  12. Interested in a part exchange deal for a 2004 celica?
  13. It should do, the old rubber sections of the original bushes just fell out.
  14. The one I use is not £40, but it stayed on the car at over 140 leptons http://www.cameragrip.co.uk/acatalog/hague_sm1_car_camera_suction_mount.html Edit : I've just bought a few more toys for mine this years big events. I've got a proper .30x fisheye lense. When fitted, they give a proper look of speed. You also get a brilliant wide angle of the car if fitted to the rear screen. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hOadFKuJWT0
  15. Well, after messing about trying to get the old bushes out and the new ones in, I finally managed it. Using a vice wouldn't move the old bushes, so a larger socket underneath the fork, with a smaller one on top.....tap tap taperooo and they're out. New ones proved to be a bugger too, heated the fork and managed to get one in halfway before it stuck solid. Should have listened to Mr Wilson on this one, tapped out the new bush and started again, put them both in the freezer over night. The following day put each end of the fork on heat for a couple of minutes and the new bushes just dropped in, no messing. Thanks for all your help peeps, will be putting it all back together this weekend.
  16. Dean, you interested in a Part ex with a celica? This one..... http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?242472-54-plate-Celica-for-sale-or-P-ex
  17. You say that, but mine got 40 more hp at the fly than yours on that last rolling road day
  18. Loving your work mate, can't wait to see it tear up the quarter this year
  19. Love it. Would look right at home on a computer game or car show. I wouldn't want to drive around in it though The photographer has some serious skills Great pics.
  20. Someones just put a deposit on it, my mate is gutted...........it better not be any of you guys
  21. Thanks for your thoughts guys. I'll go tomorrow with my mate, and give my bartering skills their best shot. I've picked up on a few things already that I can get money off for, damaged lip and bent wheels being two of them. I know you can get an auto TT for the same money, but he's fallen in love with the car, and knows about TT engine transplants when he craves for more grunt. He loves the idea of an aerotop foir the summer (can't say I blame him). I'll try to get him down to around the 5k mark, willing for 5.5k tops. As much as my mate loves it, I'll make sure he doesn't get ripped off.
  22. My mate who has loved supras for ages, is taking me with him tomorrow to check this little number out. http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/2616230.htm I'm not too clued up on Aerotop prices, so I'm not sure if this is a good deal or not. The car certainly seems clean enough. With the custom interior, big brake kit etc etc. It looks the part for sure. Does anyone have any knowledge of the car?, how much should I really be paying for it?.
