  1. Are you willing to just sell me the fronts?
  2. here ya go Click here to watch Supra-bluewater
  3. Uploading now........ The video intro was already done with the intention of using footage from bluewtaer for the meat of the video, but the lighting was soooo poor. I just knocked this one up quick with very little editing, so no piss taking please as to quality.
  4. LOL, thought you might, I've made a small vid that I will upload later.
  5. The feds are OK, you've nothing to worry about if your not doing anything wrong. It was quieter than the last one and I didn't get enough footage for the movie thing, the footage I did get was far too dark to use anyway, shame really because I got a really good exit from the two lads that were there
  6. Is that a HKS dump valve I see there? your brave putting that on a UK spec with the maf sensor.
  7. My god james, how much money have you got !!!
  8. What made you replace the top mounts, were the old ones banging? Have you got any sounds in it yet?
  9. I'm taking my HDD camera to the Bluewater meet tonight to get some footage of Supras and other Jap cars, I was wondering if anyone had any good ideas for the film, such as soundtrack or general filming ideas.
  10. nope cars running sweet, should be set for tonight, is no one else making an appearance.?
  11. I got off early from work so I decided to clean the car while the weather was nice. I took my time on her with the stereo on, chilling to some tunes while I gave her another coat of polish, little did I know the battery was slowly being drained of all life and she refused to start when I came to put her away for the evening. I had to call out CSMA to jump start her, I gave her a run afterwards to try and get some charge into the battery but not tried since. If the battery's knackered tommorow morning I may not be able to get one for the evening. fingers crossed though, she should be OK. I'm also bringing the camera tommorow to make another film.
  12. Hey Surj, I'll be there, providing my car starts. Is your mate Dave bringing his Scooby? Edit - I mean Steve LOL
  13. First off,they are covered in sooty deposits, which leads me to believe the car is running rich. see here http://www.spark-plugs.co.uk/pages/technical/diagnosis.htm Also, the bottom of your coil packs have what looks like oil on them, there should'nt be oil on them. If oil is getting there, your rocker cover gasket may be leaking into the chambers and interferring with the spark. Look into these things and get back to me, it has me intrigued.
  14. I was gonna post about this the other day but forgot, I'm on my second tank of V-power and have found a noticable difference in the power of the car.
  15. I'd check the plugs again mate, when you took the old ones out, did they all look the same at the tips or was one different to the others.
  16. your right, I forgot about the driving after plug fittment. Have you got any error codes.?
  17. check all you pulleys mate, especially the crank pulley as its a known weak spot. If its hanging off, it'll unbalance the engine and cause vibration and noise.
  18. I've read through this entire thread, and come to the conclusion that the problem is heat related, therefore, my hypothesis is that the fault lies with mechanical error, not electrical. I'd get a compression check done to see if your engines compressing properly. At least it'll rule out head gasket failure or worse.....
  19. LOL, now that, I would love to see. Imagine taking it to your local tuning shop and saying, "here mate, would you mind fitting this for me?"
  20. I had a run in with one of these a while back, he was faster than my stock TT.
