  1. I'm glad you said that. I'm not a fan of people sticking Supra engines in other cars.. makes me sad. I even feel a little weird about putting a V8 in a supra.
  2. Thank mate. I'd be interested to know what code 5 is as his RX7 isn't registered yet and I can see him running into issues. Can anyone say bribe You could always import a body as a "kitcar" or something dodgy like that? Otherwise, you could bang the 2JZ into something else if you don't mind losing the supes lovely lines http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/vbpicgallery.php?do=view&g=1238
  3. Cool, thanks. Will the banjo fitting you found on ebay fit onto the supra?
  4. I remember all this cr@p... Wassie, do you know what a code 5 is? My brother has a vehicle in SA that he recently bought and apparently can't register it as it's a code 5. How about if you ship all the parts in and build your own from scratch, can it be declared as a new vehicle?
  5. Hi Dimitri...Have you got any pics of this? I'm trying to remember what was in the box, and I don't recall seeing a check valve...
  6. Cool, looking forward to doing mine
  7. I was wondering about that. Couldn't you measure the distance from the bottom of the stock pump to the top of the hanger and make sure the new one lines up to the same spot?
  8. I find mine accelerates faster with it off too.... I thought it was a placebo effect until one day I put my foot down and thought something was slightly different and slower. Then I noticed I hadn't turned it off. Turned it off, and felt more power... This has happened to me a few too many time for me to think that the TC doesn't have some adverse affects on the power.
  9. ...Not in the VVTI's you can't.... I never ever use mine, even in the rain. I prefer to have the control. I find TC more of a hinderance than a help. The only exception is when it's actually snowed, and I absolutely have to use my car, then I stick it in "SNOW" mode.

  13. Nothing Else Matters was my first dance at my wedding Doing it in style! I found the show at Wembley last year a little dissappointing after download 06. The sound quality IMO was cr@p. They still rocked though!

    New house

    Found a place. All good. Just sorting out the deposit etc and off we go. My friends all joke that the next phase is people carrier over Supra.... Helllllllll no! I've seen so many people use morgage in this country that I figured that's how it's spelt here. I've always been taught "mortgage".... colour - color... etc etc... I can't keep up (and yes in SA it's colour and in the UK it's colour and the US is color but damn!!! Someone make up your mind)
  15. You could always strip the car down weight wise and make more use of the BPU by having lighter bits... ooh errr...
  16. Whachoo talkin bout Willis? I sent the exact same pic to someone at work today... hillarious!!
  17. Take pics Si, it'll be good to see
  18. Does the rotating bezel on the racer gauges come off so that they look like the old ones with the aluminium trim?
