  1. If you have a radiator plate it can also affect the bonnet closing right. If it folds over support bar if that makes sense.

    Worth it? Recaros

    Thats right, the SR3 have "less pointy" shoulder areas and are easily distinguishable from the SR2. Not to mention the OEM versions had the flocked harness bars (any without this arent OEM supra ones)
  3. Yeah I know about that, I meant genuine GZ twin turbo aerotops
  4. I only know of around 10-15 of them on this site. Be good to get a register going I’d say they are a lot rarer than uk spec cars (still in the UK)
  5. Tbf a genuine GZ aerotop is a rare bird these days has to be 18-20k When you finally get a sale price please PM me so I can use it as an example for my agreed value. They rarely come up for sale
  6. It's a GPS speed it seems pretty accurate to my phone which shows the same speed. https://www.amazon.co.uk/Streaming-Mirror-AUTO-VOX-Auto-brightness-Adjusting-DVR-X1PRO-UK/dp/B07CMK74JJ This is the model although they are out atm i think it's available on ebay etc. Next? who knows lol Cheers, hopefully when i get the DSLR out it will show the colour more accurately the iPhone has made it slightly brighter than it is.
  7. Hi Guys, I finally received the new seats and i've slacked putting up pics on here as i was hoping to get some proper picture first. But i can always do that later. This thread was always a little log what i can look back on later. So i saw this rear view mirror on youtube i was getting rave reviews everywhere so i decided to give it a try. I had to remove the rear mirror mount completely as none of the adapters which were supplied would fit, Im happy with the outcome though. The mirror has a Front and Rear dash cam aswell as functioning as a mirror (duh) and has other functions like GPS speedo, direction etc. I also fitted some new Door "condoms" as the old ones were ripped and messy. You can also see the only parts of the car what are red still! So i cracked on with fitting the seats. They are still so heavy even after the retrimmer took out the airbags etc which are not required. I had my handbrake retrimmed. I just need to get the gear lever sorted (i have a gaiter ready just need to decide which way to go) Seats from the rear with my seat delete And headlining which flows from rear to front I fitted my carbon skinned door controls also along with the retrimmed arm rests I had some new seat belts re-webbed onto the supra mechnisms (i had to change the buckles to suit the new seats) Thanks for looking!
  8. Do these have any paperwork to say they are genuine? do they have any date stickers or labels as to when they expire?
  9. I wondered if it was 1a1 but if it's a repaint it's close to 1a1 for sure.
  10. Personally the VVTI engine would be better route for me as it's OEM to a degree. A well done single setup is going to cost you a lot more in my opinion. The W58 will probably struggle in both circumstances. Most people who have them on BPU have at least 2-3 spares hanging around.
  11. Advertised as 36,000 miles but 86km's is more like 57 + any extra? Which is it?
  12. Looks like it could be a lovely car and spec if the colour is genuine. Rubbish advert and pictures however.
  13. It will be the stereo what needs it more than the single turbo
  14. Ric

    Tyres

    I have the continental sport contact 5 and they are great. I'd assume the 6 is better still
  15. If it's a genuine GZ then its not far off?
  16. It's probably because theres always a select few people on all groups on FB, Here and any other forum which shout bloody mary as soon as somebody posts a car/part at current market prices. (How you get these prices m8? OMGz price etc.) And the time old tradition of JESUS you changed a wheel bolt once, it's not OEM anymore 10k less.
  17. A boost gauge will always show negative readings. The intake manifold isn't constantly positive pressure (sure, under acceleration it is) but mostly it's under vacuum (which is what the negative readings are)
  18. Thanks for the reply im looking for an auto one
  19. Yeah it's loads quieter. Don't forget the roof too. Makes a lot off difference
