  1. Do you want my best time? are you doing everybodies that attended on saturday? let me know and i wil post them here cheers
  2. Nope, totally untouched car and I have the time sheet in front of me. He is pretty pleased that he got to run and sends his thanks to the group!
  3. That was my mate and ACTUALLY he was running 14.6 so that actually puts some to shame!
  4. Been reading about 11 pages and my eyes are going blury.. Question Paid up for myself to drag and two spectators. Being a supra and not to much room in the back can my friend come in his s2000 both my spectators are non members. Dont want him to drive down from derby not to get in with his car. ALso.. does this put much wear on tires? I have an old shite set and my nice F1's on nice wheels Which set should i use? Thanks jonnie
  5. I have no idea if this is a scam or not, but quite a few of the "bargin" motors on ebay are there just to collect peoples email addresses. If he replied though then maybe he is for real.
  6. Does anyone know what the steps are? A. to get it on the boat RoRo B. to get it from Southhampton docks. C. To get it home. The chap who is selling it has found me a company in Brisbane who can help export it. OI need advice on what they need to know, what I need to make sure I have and what I need to do this end? Do I wait for Customs to contact me or do I need to contact them and tell them? Arghhhh.. I am sure it is simple but I cannot find anything on the web to advise me. Thanks Jonnie
  7. Gaffa tape... a very important survival tool, fixes and bodges everything
  8. I have the taste for a 70's car and I keep seeing the celicas st coupe and would like to own one for the right price. Anyone know of any for sale? or much about them. jonnie
  9. Very nice car, how much did you pay for it? also I have an old Humber Scepter in my shed, Its not mine but I know he only bought the vehicle for the floor pans, so if there are any bits your may need I can ask the chap.
  10. I too drove from Ashbourne today. Got back a couple of hours ago and did not even make it in. What a F&*k up!! I think they have had an easy way out by cancelling due to the weather as there parking plan was a disaster!! 12 hours in a discovery.. 12 HOURS... arghhhh
  11. I am not a Ford lover.. but I did get given a Granada twin cam G reg and I used it for a year and was still going well, before me it had been owned by the entire family (3 sons), hit by a milk float twice and the speedo had packed in on 250,000 three years before! I was impressed. Prob a one off!
  12. This is what I understand. The SBC color thing I have seems rather complicated and have not bonded with it yet. I have been thinking of having two settings but then thats what my foot is for.
  13. Have one! a defi one and another boost guage on my pillar.. When they turn on a peak light comes on. can I set this? to s desired level?
  14. No I wont!!! but I find I have to be even more aware when over taking as i no longer can just floor it and hold on.. now it tends powerslide sideways 1st!!! I think this will do me till next year and then I will start to think whats next. Its this damn website.. it seems to make me spend money. Only two months ago I was saying how happy I was with a standard supra.. now look what I have done!
  15. Its a Uk spec so no restrictor ring and an electronic boost controller. I like the sound of 400.. god knows how people drive a 600+ daily... dont take me wrong I would if I could but this will do for a few weeks anyway!!
  16. A couple of weeks ago with the help Of Whifbitz I had some bits to make my car go faster added. I thought it was a quick car before but now........ awsome! It did cost a fair bit when its all added up and my credit card took the brunt of it! I still need a few bits fine tuning by paul which I will get sorted soon and I am not sure if I am pushing the boost a little to much?. Its peaking at 1.34 bar every now and again with nearly 1.3 every other foot down expierience. Any one know what kind of BHP approx it is creating now? I have a FMIC, rsr, 2.5" both decat, sbc color boost controller and walbro pump. OH and is 10.9 AFR reading ok on full power with about 14.1 on tick over. thanks jonnie

  18. Its all good, I was within the 14 day cooling off period and apparently they dont take payment in the 1st 7days. I have now gone with sky who have insured me fully comp with an agreed price and mods for only 50 quid more than churchill were charging for TPFT and no mods. Thanks for the help chaps
