  1. Trafficstar DTS alloys..... http://www.zcentre.co.uk/shop/images/Trafficstar_DTS_chrome.jpg It won't take that much to get that car looking very special. More so seeing as white seems to be the new 'in' colour.
  2. Yeah, and like I said in the meet thread, there's nothing in it between the two.
  3. Winner Next challenge please.
  4. Dan, I mentioned the above to you the other night. If you've got your car the way you want it, and you've clearly put a lot of effort into her. If you can get the TT6 conversion done reasonably, then go for it. The only thing you have to weigh up, is the price of carrying out the work, in comparison to selling and buying a complete car. The engine and turbo isn't your real issue I'd say, it's the 6 speed gearbox and gubbins that go with it, as you probably already know, the 6sp gearbox is not cheap Edit - in fact, think of it this way, I reckon you're looking at 5k to do a 6spTT conversion. If you sold your car for 4k, then added 5. you could get a very nice 6sptt for that money
  5. Sorry for the delay matey, here are some pics. Like I said, I've no idea whether this is for a car with an active spoiler, as my car never had one before I fitted an aftermarket front end.
  6. Keron on here will have them for you, they're just bulb holders
  7. It depends on what wheels you want mate. There are different size and offset wheels that will fit the supra. It depends on what look you want.
  8. Yeah, the convoy was cool (up to the bit where they're resurfacing the road, then it was 'dodge the raised manhole' Chris found a good route through though. Chris and I also put the 6sp vs auto myth to bed too. From a rolling start of about 35 - 40 leps, there really is nothing in it........it was a brilliant laugh too, I was smiling about it on the way home Anton cracked me up too when I took Mitchell9006 out for a ride. I pulled up next to him in his skyline and said three beep rule, then go. The cheeky feck went on the second beep.....but it didn't help him much Awesome night
  9. It was a good night last night. Looking forward to pics
  10. There's no point in me bothering trying to look good................you can't T-cut a turd
  11. Right, I'm off out now to get her looking the part
  12. Got a text from Suprasurj last night too, he says he'll try and get down. He's just started his new phone business, so if anyone wants anything phone related, he's the man to speak too shamless plug
  13. If the weather holds, I'll be in the supe, If not, I'll be on the R6. Either way I'll see you guys at the Esso. Convoy through Darford again would be good. Got loads of rubber neckers last time
  14. That does seem a massive amount of power for BPU, like others have mentioned I'm not sure the stock 440c injectors on the Jspec are capable of delivering the fuel for that amount of grunt. Mine is 6sp BPU and doesn't flame (though I've not had it up to the limiter before).
  15. As far as I know, If it wears and leaks internally, it will drip out of that pipe, (that also has a rubber extension bit) that stops the coolant leaking onto the altenator and being flung all over the engine.

    SGT Smelly

    He did. The baton strike to the legs is a home office approved technique, which officers are trained to utilise. I think he did a good job IMO. He carried out a dynamic risk assessment of the situation and acted accordingly. His actions are easily justifiable from my point of view.
  17. Of course they're different, staggered wheels mean different size tyres. They are 235/35 on the front, because the profile is not a measurement, it's a percentage IIRC. the rears are 275, if they had 35 profile on them, they'd look like truck tyres, and 30's on the front would look too thin Cheers Hopefully it'll still look as nice with the new wheels I'm getting.
  18. Something about this animation I find amazing, but I can't put my finger on it.
  19. If we could get the top gear track, that would be the best of everything. Track action, and the runway for the standing mile.
  20. power steering pump is my guess. It probably goes when the fluid is warmed up.
  21. No need for any slating. I think the coupe is a very pretty car. The announcment of the new one having some lairy engined RWD setup makes it go up in my book.
