  1. LoL, tell him not too bother as I won't waste my time and petrol hows life been with the Supra so far Lubas?
  2. Click this link and go to BPU+ and check the HKS intercooler, it has step by step pics that may help. http://www.mkiv.com/main/index.html
  3. I would imagine Toyota put a fan there for a reason, is there no way of relocating the oil cooler along with the fan?
  4. Lee, no problem mate, glad to help. Nic, again, no problem fella.
  5. Scroll down to psymons post with his carbon dash panels http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?t=56593
  6. Mate, if you've got that much, speak to import nic about his water transfer process. Its the best look IMHO for the dash on your car
  7. Can't remember what you said your name was mate, we'll need to get together at one of the south east meets and discuss the fine points of Supra ownership, nice to meet you mate
  8. Mine drives around Blackheath a lot, two reasons. 1) its on my way to work. 2) Its the summer, and the heath is FULL of totty. If I see a 323 GTR around, I'll wave.
  9. Are we sure its not the same fella, he's not said its a new purchase, just that he's now a member. Why's he got a HKS SSQ dump valve but not fitted it?
  10. Very nice mate, the exhaust looks like a HKS, don't know about your T-timer though. Whats with your dash illumination? on mine its green, yours is red. Someones been messing with LED's
  11. Didn't the previous owner cook the turbos?
  12. I'll tell her you said that next time I see her
  13. You have some great photoshop skills mate, nice one.
  14. I personally prefer tribal graphics rather than tear or graffiti, http://sloaninnovations.com/osCommerce/catalog/images/101.jpeg
  15. The water in your fish tank need oxygenating (sp), you can by tablets from any aquarium. Can't help with the wheels though, what do you think this is, a car forum or something?
  16. Yo, welcome to the fray.
  17. Oh, your BPU, better get one of them cats back in.
  18. TT all the way mate, find a dealer with a nice one and part ex.
  19. The garage that did it was the old forge garage in Orpington High Street, if people have bodykits fitted to their cars I'd recommend them, they use the pit for the MOT so there's no chance of getting side skirts chewed up on ramps. Nice bunch of fellas as well.
  20. I agree mate, walk away, you can do better than that. If you want to get a Supra, its worth getting the best example you can, if you buy a dog of a car, you'll be paying for it for as long as you own it.
  21. Heres a piccy of my car being tested today, it passed with flying colours. The guy said its so clean underneath, it'd be a joy to get run over by it I'm sooooo happy, no more worries for a year!!
  22. Congrats on the new car mate, haven't seen many white ones, looks like a tidy example. How could you possibly think a 1800 integra would keep up with a 3ltr TT Supra? Your spoiler does look like a universal item, Whats been done with the original spoiler holes,? have they been filled or has it just got plastic gromits in the boot where the bolts used to be? If its got gromits, get the original spoiler back on there mate, or even better, get one of the TRD replica ones http://www.whifbitz.co.uk/images/parts/bodykits/suprarearspoiler.jpg Good luck with the new car, and the best advice I can give you, is take it easy, these cars bite when provoked, epecially in the wet. I think a Jeremy Clarkson statement fits the supra quite well, "its like owning a bear, its all well and good, until one day, it bites your head off".
  23. Sean, stop panicking, I doubt things are as bad as you think. People forget these cars are renowned for their reliability. you'd have to be the unluckiest person alive to have half the problems that people have metioned here. I've no doubt that your clutch is knackered and needs replacing, but this is just down to wear and tear, clutches wear out, its a fact of life. Its no big deal if the rear crank seal has blown, while the clutch is getting done, its not a big job to fit a seal while the gearbox is off. At least once you have a new clutch fitted, it'll be piece of mind for you that its all brand new under there. Good luck with it matey.
  24. I've never heard of Mkiv supes rusting. Somethings odd there mate.
