  1. I have to agree with jamiep about the burnt tip thing. It's not that it's a bad thing having the burnt tip effect, but it's over done on this pipe. It needs to be a bit more subtle. Like my old Impreza BC pipe
  2. You're first car is like you first girlfriend. No matter how ugly she was, you wouldn't mind going back to have another go.
  3. On my old TT auto, I changed the terminals due to the auto needing a bigger cranking power. On my newer 6sp manual however, I've just stuck a 330 cranking power halfords jobby on with small terminals and it starts and runs fine.
  4. Here's and example of the C5 I'm on about.......I think they're stunning. http://208.100.1.13/~turbotec/site/wp-content/uploads/2007/08/glennp.jpg
  5. Very nice, what are them blob things on the bumper above the indicator?
  6. Monaro VXR if I could stretch a little over 10k. Or something like a C5 corvette, I've always loved the shape of them, and 5.7ltr V8 muscle can't be all bad
  7. Bought a Supra having always loved them. Got it, loved it, missus got pregnant, sold it,................. gutted. Bought a practical 4 door family Impreza STI, got bored, sold it in three months. Bought an s2000, got bored and missed the Supra. Sold it, bought another Supra. Happy Days

  9. I think monkey might be having it mate. The bumper is sold, but I still have the OEM non skirt things if you want them £30
  10. FFS, I was just looking at that pic and thought the gaping hole in the front bumper looked a bit big for a ridox. Sure enough, its a Retaliator bumper
  11. Small update today, everything has arrived that's needed. Thanks to Paul at whifbitz for the Ridox bumper and rear spats. This is the way she looks at the moment. I'll be fitting the bumper this Friday to ensure a proper fitment. I still need to get a bity more cash together before I order the wheels (someone buy my 6 puck clutch in the for sale section ) I never realised how hard it is to find a set of wheels, I set my heart on a set one minute, then see something else that catches my eye another. I'll wait till I've got the funds together before making the decision. Any hints on what wheels would suit the car would be much appreciated. EDIT, I also need some sort of bracket to secure the PAS cooler on the N/S. Any hints and tips please.
  12. Off topic I know, but are they wheelmania wheels?
  13. Looks amazing Dave. Top effort
  14. Its undergoing some major facelift surgery
  15. Ahhh, lui took a few pics of my old supe (red one with blended skirts and spats) I miss her
  16. I agree. The fact that he pleaded guilty to endangering road users suggests there is more to this. I suspect he may have been throwing sweets at other road users.
  17. Wow, top effort on the trial supra
  18. Cheers guys, it's not an RPS, although it looks very similar. (and more than likely does exactly the same.)
  19. Bloody hell, I took my old supra through some fairly deep water without any trouble (flooded sliproad). You must have taken it through a river
  20. It doesn't have any markings on it. Guess it's not an RPS. I'll pm the previous owner and find out.
  21. Just watched your whoops pt 1 video. You were lucky not to spank the armco on that one
  22. Also, Ridox bumper, skirts and spats come with carbon accent bits on the bottom (if you buy the expensive ones). That'd look awesome on a white supe
  23. Big difference between stock and BPU ? Hell yeah there is!! It's not just the performance though, it's the fanfare that goes with it. The noise of a Supra with full decat and decent exhaust is quite something
