  1. Kwik Fit needed both porta when they did mine mate.
  2. Nope, wrong. Still the same cost at Kwik Fit as per this provisional booking I've just done.
  3. Hi mate, potentially interested in the prefacelift lights. Any close up pics please buddy?
  4. Yes mate. Although I would say Kwik Fit do it for a cheap price of £50 or something. I had mine done last year. It's good to test for any leaks etc so might be better? If you've got all the kit yourself then great. I think there's two ports isn't there, a high and low pressure, from memory. The H port and then one over by ABS/Oil dipstick.
  5. Purchased a while back for the Red Supra restoration, no longer needed. These are full hubs with wheel bearings, upper arms, working ABS sensors and I think drop-links (I will check when home). Looking for £250 please and collection only from Bromsgrove. I can potentially deliver to Birmingham, Bristol or Milton Keynes given I travel there for work quote often. Thanks Greg
  6. Sold pending final payment and collection.
  7. How much you use and the oil level will also depend on whether you have any additional oil coolers. Mine is filled to the Max level or just over on cold start given I have two extra coolers fitted.
  8. £60 which isn't bad mate. Direct attachment and uses FLIR software. Will be useful anyway around the house and looking at any hot points in wiring and circuit boards etc as well as loft
  9. Good shout Noz. I've purchased the FLIR One Thermal Camera add in for Android as I'm a user of their CCTV gear which is brilliant. Cheers.
  10. Hi Jenni I will most likely be upgrading to an AP setup if they clear my CCWs and will therefore have my current Uk Brake setup available too finished in Red with TRD emblems and rebuilt only 2k miles ago. They will come with new UK discs and Stoptech pads. Price will be the same. I’ll be in touch. Thanks Greg
  11. Quick Update. The following parts have already been purchased or will be imminently: OS Giken Triple Plate Clutch - good for 800-1200rwhp AP Racing BTCC Brakes - provided they fit with CCWs I'm on the hunt for a better Exhaust Manifold, larger ASNU 1500 injectors or possibly bigger, an ETS or similar FMIC to handle power and of course a new bigger Turbo! I still plan on stripping the underside too and getting it treated by Performance@Hart. Looking forward to taking this love of my life to the next level. Greg
  12. Hi Jenni I have UK front calipers freshly Rebuilt with near new genuine OEM discs (sub 500 miles) and Porterfield Pads (sub 1k) miles for £600. I might have already sold them as guy said he would take them but will message him now to confirm. Would you be interested? Thanks Greg
  13. Reduced to £300 for a set of brand new quarter windows. Thanks Greg
  14. Thanks mate. Managed to source one from abroad.
  15. Anyone know the part number please? I believe the whole section removes including the centre glove box. Mine has a snapped clip at top and doesn't fit flush so looking to swap over to new/VGC used. Thanks Greg
  16. Hi all Long story short, every now and then my car blows the 30amp EFI fuse. It doesn't happen whilst driving and has only happened a couple of times in 6 months but clearly something is causing it to short. What would be the best things to check in chronological order please? Assume start with the fuelling system and maybe the tank pumps? Might check for Arcing around alternator area as heard that could be a problem. Any advice appreciated. Thanks Greg
  17. It's not a log manifold gents it is an older Tubular Cast Manifold made by PowerHouse Racing. I can't remember where it was but I read a brilliant article about different materials and heat generation on various manifolds made of differing materials. My turbo has a heat DEI blanket and the downpipe is wrapped too so I can't really do much more there. My bay gets ridiculously hot, like even the strut tops are nuclear. No issue as the water and oil temps remain constant but there must be a way to reduce overall heat in the bay and I was thinking the manifold was likely the root cause of excessive heat. Thanks
  18. Seeing about 110 degree mate and around 125 if really pushing it. Sensor is mounted in hottest location I believe. I know a bigger cooler will help. The PHR cast manifold definitely develops a ridiculous amount of heat. I had a quote to have it Zirocoated and it was about £540. It's not just about oil temps I want to cool down overall heat in the bay so might look at ducting or a custom extraction fan.
  19. Hi all I have an older PHR manifold fitted and it's been awesome but generates a ridiculous amount of heat. I'm upgrading my oil cooler to either a 25 row or 40 row dependent on room behind bumper. I'm also looking to change the Manifold for a modern and cooler operating version, has to be a T4 Divided I believe as I run a Precision 6466 Turbo with Twin Wastegates. Any recommendations out there please? I will look to get it Zirocoated too. Thanks Greg
  20. I had a set of both and I can't personally see how the bracing actually helps much unless as you say Tyson manufactured from a weaker material. It's only under the centre cap.
  21. Hi mate For info I have the following CCWs fitted: 18x10 7.25 and 18x11 8.25 Tyres are near new (still have red line) Toyo Proxes T1-Rs and fronts are 265/35/18 and the Rears 295/35/18. I might be able to stretch them wider at rear but being honest I find traction is awesome with this setup. The Giken differential definitely helps but I can put the power down well. Like the idea of 17's at rear though!
  22. Haha no sold those mate unfortunately. They are indeed buddy. As soon as he made a set I jumped at the opportunity and bought them. Stunning work and over the moon with them.
  23. Yes thanks Annabella, flywheel power Lee!
