  1. Stunning............................simply stunning.
  2. They are very pretty cars. F knows what Mazda were thinking with the RX8.
  3. No problem matey, glad I could help
  4. I don't have the OEM brackets anymore as I sold them with the stock bumper . Is it worth me getting some off Keron or Jezz on here?
  5. Just got my Ridox front bumper through the post. I'm not confident when it comes to body work, and don't really have the confidence to butcher it myself. I originally recieved the wrong bumper from the supplier which had threads in the side of the bumper to secure it to the wing, making it much easier to tackle, however, this one has nothing so would need to be drilled. Anyone fancy giving me a hand fitting it? There'd be beer tokens in it for you
  6. What tyres are you sticking on it to get it all in for £700:blink:
  7. I've been sorting out the after market power steering cooler mounting on my car this afternoon. I have one of those S shaped metal cooling pipes which sits in the passenger side aperture behind the front bumper. I found that the pipes that connect to it, one from the rack and one from the resevoir are both quite brittle. As I moved the cooler, I noticed it splitting at the points where it bends. So I need to get some new pipe but don't know what size to get, can anyone help?
  8. At a wild guess, subframe bolts need tightening.
  9. When I get hold of a carbon one, I'll be spraying it, though not all of it
  10. Yeah, I'm up for this. No assists though, no ABS, no traction, no STC, manual gears. A class tune Supras, no S's or U999's.
  11. Uk gets my vote, (I'll have the carbon one off you )
  12. I believe the price has recently gone up. It was £800 for me 2 years ago to do a one week intensive course. That included everything, bike + gear hire with insurance, theory test, practical test and tuition. I had never ridden a bike before, so was a proper noob on the Monday. I passed with no minors on the Friday and jumped straight onto my R6 The test is now slightly longer so belive it's closer to the 1K mark.
  13. Welcome matey, what company is it? I may have some work for you (if you're prices are right )
  14. Look what I found http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?t=187052
  15. It is harsh, not quite on off. It's as light as the stock clutch, it's just much more fierce on the biting point. But thats what they're designed for.
  16. I've heard there is no adjusting the Mines ECU. Apparently not all Mines ECU's are the same either. Some have the rev limit raised, some don't. Some are specified for the auto, some for manual. I saw a thread once where you could put the serial number of the ECU into a jap website and you could get details from it.
  17. Is that lean spot soing to be present on my Mines ECU? Actually, I have some RR printouts at home, I'll check when I get in and report back.
  18. Cheers Scott M. Running lean is one thing I don't want to be doing................ever. I think I'll be leaving mine in sequential mode for now

    Exhaust

    Save a bit more and get a decent one. Hate to rip off someone elses wise words on here, but "buy nice, or buy twice"..............
  20. Someone recently bought some off an ebay seller by the name of carmadstyling. he even put pics of them offered up to the car and the fit was perfect. They were new for less than £200. (sorry if I've ruined someones sale)
  21. I have a mines ECU, I don't think it's re-mappable. So what actually has to be done to change regarding the fuelling.? It says in the second article posted that the ECU will re-learn values the more you drive it in TTC mode and you may get puffs of black smoke until this happens. Also, I have an AEM tru boost controller which is setup fine ATM, so if I put it in TTC mode, what would have to be changed?
  22. SSQV dump valve ? :d I jest...... To actually contribute to this thread in a constructive manner. EBC will fully refurb all your calipers with new pistons, seals and powdercoat in a colour of your choice for less than £400. They send a courier out to pick them up, (yes you have to remove them yourself) and then get them returned to you in a weeks time all sparkly and new. I had my S2000 ones done and can't recommend them enough
