  1. Someone went into the side of the supra a week ago and the doors badly dented:( I need a replacement near side (passenger) door. Red would be a bonus but any would do fine (re-spray) thanks
  2. Hi Josh yes, sent you a pm
  3. Be careful saying 'Fill me in' to Ed, I remember him being our 'naughty' club member... ...and no-one noticed I was gone..sob...
  4. Cheeky, the 'female passenger' was me driving Linda
  5. Thanks for the pic I'm aware of the letter sizes but wasnt sure if the plate itself had to be certain dimensions to be legal. I'lll pop along to my local plate maker! cheers
  6. Hi y'all My front number plate blew off going down the A5 at the weekend I have to replace it but not sure what size it was other than (rectangular) smaller than a UK but larger than a motorbike plate. I've done a search on here and seen mention of a "3/4 size plate". Anyone know the exact dimensions please? PS I have a UK one jammed on the dash just incase amyone thinks I'm temporarily illegal thanks Linda
  7. You go girl! The more someone tells me I shouldn't do something because 'its not for women' the more inclined I am to do it just because I took up kickboxing a few years back and became very proud of my collection of bruises and shin dents. I'm also the only female at the gym who regularly trains with weights and sports biceps. To be honest, I only get positive comments once the blokes get over the surprise (and fear...) Enjoy!! Linda x
  8. ....looks like I'll be going to Travelodge from now on then...

    I worked there one summer, a few years back. Your typical Brit tourist resort, lots of pubs, bars, clubs, meths' cocktails....fights...vomiting...etc As long as your not looking for a duplicate French Riviera (i.e. Quality) you'll have a great time. Lovely long golden sandy beach to recover from your hangover on too. Lx
  10. To be honest I don't use the key: only the fob. When I blip the fob there is no 'clunk' of locks locking on the driver side although the passenger side is fine, hence thinking its a problem with a jammed d/s barrel
  11. Good idea, I'll give it a go as soon as I can find the spare key! thanks JB
  12. Driver side door lock jammed, I've taken the door panel off and the mechanism and latch are fine. Anyone know how to free it up or of a mechanic in the West Midlands area (preferrably Birmingham direction) who can sort it out? I've tried copious quantities of DW40 to no avail cheers Linda
  13. Hi is it on coilovers? You can adjust the ride height, not great but better than keeping cracking it on our rubbish roads/speed bumps. Mine's in the bodyshop after cracking the front diffuser had it heightened now so its about 3 inches off the ground instead of 1 1/2

    Hiya!

    Hi Lauren Welcome! there's a few cheeky chaps on here but their harmless, you develop a tough hide after a while Hurry up and get that supra, need some more supra-girls on here to keep the lads in check Linda x
  15. ooh Thai food... Yup. hopefully make it, if there's no more probs with the supe Linda x
  16. A lot of these kits don't come 'complete'. Also, by the time youve paid for labour on top, you wont get much change out of £4 K. The most you'd get with an NA-T with a typical turbo 'kit' is around 350 bhp. You really would be better off getting rid of the NA and buying a TT, youd then start with around 320 bhp. As most on here have power upgrades you could buy one with around 400 bhp without breaking the bank. Its all covered on here: http://www.clubna-t.com/forums/
  17. Perhaps if you stripped off all the add-ons and went back to being totally stock, you could then pin point any existing problems before doing any upgrades. There are breakers on here that could supply you with parts that shouldn't break the bank. As for selling it, it sounds like its so bodged no one would touch it. At least if you returned it to stock condition you would be able to sell it and get some of you money back. Chin up, these cars can be full of problems, rarely just one thing at a time. Be persitant, it will work out All the best
  18. They've probably been rolled out of the garage for the summer. give it a couple of months and they'll be back in the garage Its odd how I only tend to see other supra's when I'm in someone elses car Hey Ade, I didn't know you'd sold up!! Shame as I only seem to see you around town!! Hi Mike Lxx
  19. welcome! Happy shopping Linda x
  20. I think that was Amo (member) built it up from scratch
  21. Your new. After a couple of years (if you don't stuff it in a hedge trying to prove you can beat a pug 307 off at the lights) you'll realise that NA's are not high powered and that there is much more ownership fun and enjoyment than thrashing it around to prove a point.
  22. The photo's from last year look great, doesnt look like it would have a high chav rating either Can we turn up individualy or would we need to book a stand? times moving on so may be too near.....?
  23. Woo! comes with free rear mounted surf board kidding Nice, the front needs replacing...pleeeeeese not with a veilside
  24. I've never given a t*ss what anyone thinks of me, what I do or what I drive and the older I get the more I think "f*$% 'em!" In fact, I love the shock, horror and envy I get off guys when I roar past in my fully decatted, custom exhaust, lowered, kitted out, glossy red supra (which, incidentally sets off car alarms due to the db's which just adds to the evil glee ) If you want it, go get it Lx
