  1. cant believe no one has bought these yet,ive got 2 pairs myself and are way better than the standard kyb's
  2. I thought it may be benificial to those who would try this as ive not seen any pics on this topic also. Apart from the gearbox itself,the seal change isnt too bad,ill post pics up of the rear seal being done as you need to use a puller in order to take off the prop end, i did find the selector seal an absolute bitch to get out, i can see why some people just tap in the new seal on top of the old, and im tempteed myself to put two new ones in, seems a bit overkill but hey i hate seeing my g/box on the floor! The worst thing here is to try and pierce the plastic on the seal and kind of flick it out without scoring the sides of the seal hole.i tried getting a small screwdriver down the back of the metal outer and it pushed the bloody thing all the way down so it makes it ten times more difficult to get out, personally i didnt think they would sit back that far. i had previously replaced the rear seal for the prop but im going to do that at the same time, originally i had thought it was that seal which had gone hense why i replaced it, but after a few miles it seemed quite apparent that it was not that seal. any pics you want let me know and ill drop em in this thread to help andy
  3. No ive not shot the missus but she nearly shot me today when she walked in from work to find my 6spd on the floor.......Omg I sneaked a day off to do my gear selector seal and rear Prop seal. Something thats been slowly leaking for ages only a drop nown and then but i had to take the plunge,no way on this earth it can be done with the box in or bodging another on top so its out,shes been off the road since end of november so its no grief. The selector seal is one tight mother to come out
  4. you can still cut out for the rear reflectors on non facelift ones
  5. not seen one off n/a but im pretty sure they are different.
  6. makes a good thing so much better!
  7. i would have said rps as i tried many in mine,aprox 6 types i think and rps was best,i did use the stock 5spd at first ok at stock psi. at bpu it fell to its knees and i burnt out the clutch and flywheel jobs a badun.
  8. yep buddy some do,ive got one in the shed from my n/a, wont fit on my motor as i now opted for the uk scoop and it catches on the scoop undertray, you can have it for 30 quid if you need one. let me know andy
  9. thanks guys for the kind words, i do like to help where ever i can, as said thats what club spirit is all about,hope we can shake hands this year at a meet. i may even get a drink out of ed? but glad your sorted mate just make sure if you do it again please do it on different keys? cheers andy p.s rob "Although I have heard he has the death sentence in over 12 star systems." im a little confused here should i be worried?
  10. i got a usb to usb one from this guy here, quick delivery and works a treat! andy http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/SUPPORT-TOOL-CABLE-FOR-GREDDY-EMANAGE-E-MANAGE-BLUE_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ33596QQihZ019QQitemZ290198368372QQrdZ1QQsspagenameZWDVW
  11. yes buddy there the same, i use my old n/a one!
  12. got this last week and what a quality drifting game, all in japanese so i dont understand most of the screen prompts but its got a nice rsr supra and runs well on the hard disc. i like the time attack but in survival mode does i cant work out if i need to win the time of the opponent or just get drift points?
  13. dont be silly buddy just let me know what you need off it and pm me your addy.
  14. here you go,one thing i noticed was the side keys ie shift/cntl etc are a slightly darker colour but have a look anyway andy
  15. i may have something similar here,its a different keyboard as yours has the touchpad but keys are same colour i think and they are white cradles, ill post pic in a minute! ps are you just short of the cradles? i do have at least 2 sorts you could try but i do have some white ones

    QUOTE "Bah you edited your original post" he did and still managed to miss the spelling error:p
  17. run to the sun? wheres that marbeya cant be newquay, no sun there bud. last time we went down there my mate got his surfboard nicked off the top of his camper, we also took a 650 jetski onto fistral beach and the cops chased my mate out to sea got it all on cam too what a weekend! i also managed to beach the thing cause some twat filled the tank with a 50/50 mix of 2 stroke oil and there was plooms of smoke everywhere could be seen for miles, anyway i started the thing pulled the throttle back and i couldnt see feck all but smoke all i remember was trying to stand up on it then waking up on the beach........
  18. lol ive done a similar thing.....oh i shouldnt laugh anyway if you drop some pics up here of the keyboard i have a few toshiba's here that you can have the keys off if they are the same? they do change the bottom pins under the keys (like a small black cradle) quite a bit but cross your fingers i may be able to bail you out of jail.need to know keys missing/colour of keys and what cradle you need. andy
  19. dont think thats owt to do with the seats, did you ever notice you have a crack in your back?
  20. i know people who run w58's with over 400 with no problems. i was quoted £89 for an input shaft bearing from mr t in my old w58 and i got the exact same bearing from derby bearings for £35 so the cost soon mounts up when replacing other bits like synchromesh's etc....id get some use out of the 5spd 1st at least till it dropped to its knees and died, i must admit i liked the 5spd in my tt
  21. yeah its a doddle and cerainly better in the long run as i think a single rubber one from mr t is about 30 quid.
  22. Go Bpu, much better responce and power, dont know how you need more power in this weather anyway as mine is spinning like shit in 3rd and 4th at 4k and im only bpu, All i can say is it must be them leather seats weighing your motor down
