  1. there is a pre-facelift flying around on ebay for about a year wanting 1200/1400 euros but it shows what people want for them, facelift is rarer. Wether they sell is another thing. You'd be better modding the standard one. A guy on instagram has pretty close to standard offerings, the picture is a standard auto cluster with a re-calibrated rev counter. He is working on facelift versions too
  2. Mines been to a professional once. Mainly for ceramic coating. It's been on at least 2/3 years now and still beading madly and protecting the car. Albeit doesn't get used much so it's lasted. I probably need to get it done again at some point as i had my bonnet fitted and boot lid repainted (so no coating on there now) Can't beat a swirless car. Sure you can do it yourself but i'd never achieve the quality they did.

    Office chair

    looks like a sweat fest that one. Something with Mesh backrest and material bottom is usually my preferred
  4. The rear defuser is lovely, remember seeing it at japshow.
  5. I think 65quid is a bargain, you can never find them. Id have paid double that. If i needed one.
  6. A NA-T conversion would still keep it an original NA. A conversion with a full swap does not make it command the same price as an original. All IMO of course, others might think differently. A conversion brings up loads of questions, how old is the engine? milage no longer matches the rest of the car, the vin no longer matches the car, what about the V5? is it changed? if not will it invalidate insurance? Insurance companies also might be funny with conversions, how good was the work? It just brings up loads of questions and issues which make it not as desirable as a genuine car.
  7. a conversion will always be worth less. Changing a colour means less to me than something with an engine conversion. Others may think similar or not.
  8. You dont have to cut the wires. If you trace back the cables it goes to a blue plug to the front left side of the shifter. You can use a de-pin tool to depin it. However it usually is easier to just cut it.

  10. Yes paypal will hold the payment untill the receiver marks it as "received" However the different name and the 12x 50£ payments make it look suspect. Cancel and refund IMO
  11. How did you work that around the stock airbox? Lee told me his kit doesn't work with the airbox.
  12. yes please put the price back in so others can see what items are selling for in the current market.
  13. I have a set, about a year old. I bought new to try and fix a noise problem i had but it wasnt the rubbers. Once you've paid your membership you can access the sales section.
  14. somebody in the netherlands was 3d printing dash panels. not sure how that went in the end.
  15. we have a mk3s at work also, it's far superior to the other 3 printers ive had experience with including mine at home. It's great
  16. Any movement on price? they are cheaper from whifbitz http://www.garagewhifbitz.co.uk/toyota/supra/lighting/toyota-1092.html
  17. Small update here. My 3D printed gearknob adapter kept failing. The last version was pretty strong but if i pushed forward too hard one day it would snap. So i took to machining one from steel, first time i've ever tried anything like that so it was fantastically neat. I reprinted the collar without a thread and bonded it onto the shaft. This way the gaiter is still supported however the gearknob isn't going to snap off during a shift. I also refitted the auto panel. The metal ring on the manual panel didnt fit as well as i wanted. In the mean time i had a delivery of silicon hoses to try and finally install some pipes i've had for years. I've had this intake pipe for years which was meant for an induction kit. However i still want to use the stock airbox so i cut down the pipe to suit and joined with a reducing hose. Then i eventually found an intercooler pipe what goes over the stock airbox. Thanks to Driftbear for that.
  18. Can i take the vacuum hose part. Are they painted white, or stripped?
  19. I asked AB carbon about this. He's done one before and quoted me 550/650£ i can't remember exactly. This is the dash panels (pre facelift, facelift is extra) not the dash itself
  20. AB Carbon did the work for me and it was fantastic.
  21. They are close to the OEM ones which were provided by Toyota (ish). So suit it more than most.
  22. It was too cheap and you're wrong unfortunately. The 6 speed setup and the engine alone are worth more than 10k, you know that.... you're a trader right?
  23. one of alex's cars in there? lol
  24. I've got a car, Not sure what it is, no pics. Are you interested?
  25. Cheers, the arm rests or the button panels? pictures of both in the thread if you want to see closer.
