  1. It's just for scrap mate, you'd be surprised at how much they get.
  2. I've done this supra up in one huge effort, so not one mod stands out. I suppose I'm most proud of the choice of kit/wheel combination that I picked. It was a gamble whether it would all work together as I've not seen another car with this combination. I'm chuffed to bits with the end result though.
  3. Just recieved word that over 40 manhole covers were stolen last night in the borough of Bexley. Witnesses have given some details, and it seems a crew of tea leaves have got together and are hitting the Kent area late at night. So anyone driving in the early hours or first thing in the morning is advised to take extra care. I'd imagine dropping a wheel into an uncovered drain has the potential to write the car off.
  4. I've just renewed with Sky too, I couldn't believe I was talking to an insurance company half the time. I spoke to a guy called Luke who seems to really know his stuff. When asked about mods, he pre-empted me asking whether it's BPU?, when I replied yes, he said right, then reeled off most of my mods and I only had to add a couple of things. An absolute pleasure to deal with
  5. I reckon there's going to be a few more of these conversions in the near future after the 'oh dear thread in the multimedia section You'll love the TT power difference.
  6. I thought you didn't want american muscle?
  7. If we're talking about beat boxing, there is only one worth mentioning.....Beardyman Make sure you watch the everything is made from cheese part (starts at 12.40)
  8. Nah, 1st one looks like she's been caught pissing behind someones supra. Third pic blonde is nice, but the wrist full of cheap gold on the bonnet is a big no no.
  9. I used to think not, then I saw this. http://www.break.com/index/nerdy-kid-shreds-on-the-accordion.html
  10. Nice one. If you manage to make this work, I'd imagine you'll be able to get whoevers doing it, a fair bit of work from people on here.
  11. Good luck with it mate. Are you going to be putting the arms on your car afterwards to road test them?
  12. The jasper is apparently much better than the previous itterations. I've had one for over a year now with no problems. *runs off to touch wood*
  13. Nicely done that man, another one back from the dark side.
  14. If it does turn out to be the heater matrix, don't fret too much. Someone found a very cheap alternative to the genuine toyota jobby. Search cheap matrix and you'll find it.
  15. Well done mate, were you up against the 'BEAST' blue 300zx again?
  16. You don't need a horn mate. That massive set of jingly keys will tell everyone you're coming
  17. I concur, if my Ridox (god forbid) exploded, I'd get the stillen.
  18. Ridox. I'll get a better pic when I can.
  19. 1. The ball joints are part of the arm, so can't be sourced seperately. Speak to Steve Manley or one of the traders on here for best prices (they're not cheap though). 2. Bushes vary in size and shape. Worn bushes tend to be cracked and go hard over years of abuse. Ask whoever is doing the work to have a gander at the bushes and get their thoughts on them. 3. Yes, though people like JamieP have had replacement bush sets fitted and not been happy with them and the feel of the car, IIRC Jamie said the stock bushes feel better than aftermarket ones. 4. Again, speak to the mechanic doing the work, they will certainly be easier to do if components relating to them are being removed as part of an existing job. Good luck mate. Edit, beaten to it
  20. Lovin the empathy mate, Get well soon buddy.
  21. Bottom line Eric, that car is a stunner. You could stick a 2l pinto under the hood and people would still love it. You have a diversity of members across the forums, irrespective of their affiliation with the supra, we all have different tastes and motives (check my sig ). I got recently slated just for putting a bodykit on mine. MattH gets slated for.................well, just about everything Thats just the way people are though dude, I bet half the people commenting on your build threads don't even know where the sump plug is. Don't hide her away from us mate, irrespective of HP output, you get mucho respect from me just for achieving what you have
  22. Just my luck, it pissed down with rain while driving hom this evening
  23. I apparently leave poo streaks on the toilet........... (I laughed out loud typing that)
