I have my old shroud for sale, the top left bracket is damaged though, held OK though

Cheers guys, Sheefa, less taking selfies with sales photos and fix your car i wanna see that too! lol Only just seen this dude. fitment was great to the mishimoto rad, all the holes line up, the only issue I'm having is with the stock air intake for the airbox, however because i have the APR cooling plate it's pretty much useless anyway. But the shroud fit great.

Cheers Guys Left things running today with the front of the car raised up to let all the air out and it seems to have done the job, took it for a few 2nd turbo pulls on a private road and it didnt overheat so fingers crossed thats done. Bumper re-fitted and pretty much done! I also fitted my carbon fuse box lid that i've had for a while also. MOT booked for monday ready for japfest.

Hi Guys n Gals, A little update on the car here, i'm back in the UK so decided to crack on with some maintenance of the car and a few dressy up bits as i start tidying up the engine bay on the supra. Looking a little sorry for itself in the garage, was dusty as hell this time for some reason, i have a new garage door coming soon to better seal the entrance hopefully will warm the house up a bit too! First off, removing the bumper, first time i've done it since the paint job was a little apprehensive but it came off easily. I've been collecting parts for a while for this work so a couple of pics here ill include the part numbers also for people perhaps looking to do similar work. Water Pump (inc housing) 16100-49847 Timing Belt Idler Pulley 13505-46041 Timing Belt 13568-49036 Timing Belt Tensioner 13540-46030 I've always loved the idea of the carbon fan shroud from Whifbitz so i managed to pick one up along with their new Neo-Chrome rad brackets to match my little theme in the engine bay. I mounted the fan shroud to a new Mishimoto Rad from BGAutoWorx and sealed the edges with some draft excluder so less air can escape. The size of the autobox cooler gave me some concerns but the supplier answered all my questions perfectly. I wasn't happy with the stock water neck, so while the water pump and everything was off i decided to get Rob to polish me one up. Lee from SRD sorted me out with one of their uprated alternators and even sent it with the pulley loose for me so i could fit my powerhouse racing one, service. Lee also supplied me with some new coil pack connectors, we all know what happens to those. As i would be swapping my cam covers over i bought the required hoses for the PCV and the washers for the nuts, thanks to Whifbitz for the next day delivery. PCV Hose Exhaust - 12262-46020 PCV Hose Inlet - 12261-46031 Cam Cover Washers x16 - 90210-07001 First off i removed the Rad and associated bits, i forgot how easily it all comes out. I proceeded to loosen off the crank pulley *dreading. Thanks to Iky and Supra_UFO for lending me the tools. It was pretty tight and i've never been as worried about snapping bolts in the pulley, this is what the holding bolts looked like after! Taking the water pump etc off was easy enough apart from getting to the turbo water hose bolts! jesus. The crank seal looked OK, there was a coating of oil all around but i don't think it was from the seal, i cleaned up the area and monitored it again for the next few days. My crank sprocket popped off the main timing belt pulley when i was removing it, i managed to press it back on but to save any future problems my local fabricator welded it together for me for free! awesome. I refitted everything back, adding previous parts i've been holding for a while plus i painted my timing covers in some crackle/wrinkle black. PHR Pulley Set Polished AUX Tensioner New OEM Crank Pulley Wrinkle Black cam covers Carbon Spark Plug Cover PHR Oil Cap Just needs everything else painting/polishing to bring it all together. I topped up all the fluids, PAS fluid and Coolant and started her up, started right away and idled fine, the little rattle i had was gone (was from the timing belt idler pulley i think) The car was overheating at first heaters not working so i expect i have an airlock. The lovely red coolant was bubbling away a lot. More to come, thanks for looking

Would need to be a flexible paint in order to stay on a tyre, I expect normal 040 when dry would just crack and fall off first time you take a corner or bump.. White plastidip could be best. Or the one Big-mark recommended, frost coat or somthing

Shhhh

If you mean the coil clips what connect to the coil packs SRD can supply pre-assembled ones you just solder on, about 6£ each.

Isnt the 12v fuel mod extremely un-safe?

Sure no problem.

As far as I'm aware dude it's a standard alternator. Cam covers now sold also.

300-375

PM'd you OEM alternator sold Polished alternator added.

I have the conti spc5 So far they seem good, although i've hardly pushed my car to any form of max lol..

Mines been fine, it's flexible so it's not the strongest but just be careful with the tool, it doesent touch the sides when you use it.

Paint them with proper plastic paint, or plastidip. I painted mine with normal Matt black and the heat in the car during the sun was enough to to make it crack and peel off. With plastidip it's been fine.

Yeah with the vat, still 198 for something people charge over 350 for.

Cam/Valve covers and Alternator added.
