My car is no longer for sale, i have sold my Celica GT-Four instead so the Supra stays. Thanks to all who asked about my car. Just wanted to post that my Supra will be available for sale in approx 2 weeks. I have a Service and MOT scheduled for Monday June 5th 2006 to complete safety checks, oil and filter change plus levels and fluids after which the car will get a full valet. At this time i will take current photos to support the advertisment. Although the Supra isnt ready for sale right now i am happy to talk with anyone who is interested at this stage. 1993 JDM Black Toyota Supra GZ 3000cc Twin Turbo Automatic - 23,370 miles Active Spoiler ABS Brakes Electronic Traction Control Cruise Control Limited Slip Differential Mileage History As you will see from the dates and mileage below my car hasnt seen many UK miles. My Supra has always been a second car and used in fine weather only. I can no longer justify keeping it when it is used so little so after 4 years of ownership i am letting it go. Charlesworths imported the car in April 2002 at which point it had 22,363 kilometres on the clock. As part of the SVA test the car Speedo was converted to MPH and the odometer to miles giving a converted reading of 13,977 miles. On the 20th May 2002 the Supra had its first UK MOT and the recorded mileage was 15,258 miles which was the point I bought the car. From this date to present day I have covered in 4 years just 8,112 UK miles (not winter). Between 20th May 2002 and 7th November 2003 the car covered 5,289 miles with an odometer reading on the 7th November 2003 of 20,547 miles Between 7th November 2003 and 1st November 2004 the car covered 1,397 miles with an odometer reading on the 1st November 2004 of 21,944 miles Between 1st November 2004 to present day the car has covered 1,426 miles and has an odometer reading of 23,370 miles Declared off road (SORN) between 1st November 2005 to present day Aftermarket Parts Front and Mid Chris Wilson Decat Pipes K & N Panel Filter Apexi N1 Exhaust System with Titanium Back box TRL Fuel Cut Defencer NGK Laser Platinum Spark Plugs Racetech Boost Gauge Clear Front Repeaters Clear Side Repeaters Lexus GS300 Sport 18" Alloys (Anthracite) Goodyear Eagle F1 Tyres Chris Wilson Side Mount Intercooler 3G Brembo Made Grooved Brake Discs Goodridge Braided Brake Lines Blaupunkt Woodstock CD\DAB Receiver Included in sale Relevant History Mesh Grille for Stock Bumper Scoop (ready to be fitted) Rare Toyota factory 4 piece body kit (not fitted and requires some work and painting) Toyota Auto Transmission Fluid (2 cans) Front and Mid Catalytic Converters Stock Cat Back Exhaust System Service and Parts History All MOT Certificates Japanese Manual and Test Certificates (not much good unless you can read Japanese but it does state odometer readings) Original Sales Contract from Charlesworths Toad Alarm booklet and Alarm Certificate Service at 16,800 miles to fit Decat Pipes, FCD, Boost Gauge, Road\Race Brake Pads, NGK Cold Plugs A'PEXI N1 Titanium Exhaust Booklet and Certificate (2nd Feb '03) Automatic Gearbox Service at 18,300 miles (2nd April '03) Lexus GS300 Sport Magnesium Alloys - MKIVSupra Group Buy (1st Aug '04, fitted at 21,000 miles) Goodyear Eagle F1 Tyres (1st Aug '04, fitted at 21,000 miles) Chris Wilson Side Mount Intercooler (15th July '04) Full Service at 21,000 miles including Full Brake Fluid Change, Fit 3G Brembo Made J-Spec Brake Disc, Fit Toyota Brake Pads, Fit Goodridge Braided Brake Lines, Oil and Filter Change, Power Steering Flush and Fluid & NGK Spark Plugs Service and MOT scheduled for Monday June 5th 2006 to complete standard service including safety checks, oil and filter change plus levels and fluids _________________________________________________________________

I have a silver Celica GT-4 ST205 which i think you may have seen on Sunday night. Was you parked down Oxford Street in the Millfield\New England area of Peterborough. I popped to the KFC however you had gone by my return. If you fancy a blast in the GT-Four, give us a shout. I have no idea what BHP i have however its a good bit more than stock. I have a K&N Panel, Decat, Blitz Nur Spec R, GReddy Boost Controller and a few other enhancements in Water Injection, HKS BOV, Uprated wastegate actuator. I currently run approx 16 - 17psi. IMO they are great cars and very handy in the corners and in the wet. Mine is a daily driver and does me well. Regards Chris

The differences take your breath away

I should have mentioned the service is great too. Jae didnt just quote, he took the time to speak with me and talk about the Jap car scene. Class service.

Just got off the phone from Jay, superb. Bell Direct wanted £669 for 1993 Supra GZ, all mods, Full NCB, Low mileage, garaged and alarmed and not like for like cover. Jay quoted £541 covering mods like for like. He also dropped my Celica GT-Four Insurance from £873 (Adrian Flux) to £645. Very happy indeed.

I thought all MKIV's came with a broken airbox hinge ;-)
-
Nice example, those wheels seem to appear on a few Supras, suit the car
-
Thats class, i have an African Grey Parrot that talks but a routine like that takes allot of hard work. Ours says Hello, he also knows when we are going to leave the house and says cheerio. Loads of other stuff like Hello mister. He prefers to mimic electronic sounds, microwaves, my GT-Four car alarm, even a police car (rough area) LOL.

Excellant mate on the VVTI. Yeah the GT-Four gets me by Should be around a bit more now !!. Yeah i got the Lexus wheels on, i dragged my heals a bit on those. Managed to get some miles in towards the end of the summer. They are sweet as....the handling is excellant, those wheels and F1's are a good combo. Havnt forgotten who got the wheels for me either Gotta run mate, up at 06:00. Take it easy Chris

Im fine mate, thanks for asking, its been way too long hasnt it. I still have the Supra although its garaged for the winter . The GT-Four is the every day car. Changed job recently and havnt had as much time, things have settled down now, thankfully. Quite a few names i dont recognise but glad to see the usual suspects are still around. Regards Chris

To: B&Q Customer Services From: John R...... Dear Sir/Madam, My congratulations to you on getting a yacht to leave the UK on 28th November 2004, sail 27,354 miles around the world and arrive back 72 days later. Could you please let me know when the kitchen I ordered 96 days ago will be arriving from your warehouse 13 miles away? Yours Sincerely, John

Alex, which SD card did you get. Regards Chris

Doesnt a reservation number at argos pick the item from the available stock and do exactly what it says, reserve the item. Basically if there are only 30 bundles available and 20 reservations only 10 bundles would be available for anyone turning up without a reservation number. The way i understand it when a reservation number expires the items go back into the stock levels.

Perhaps this -: Daylight Saving Time (or Summer Time as it is called in many countries) is a way of getting more out of the summer days Should have read this-: Daylight Saving Time (or Summer Time as it is called in many countries) is a way of getting out more during the summer days. :D :D :D

Nope i really should though. Not been around much recently. It crossed my mind that my first post in ages was not the most interesting. Ill get my coat and come back when ive pulled myself together

Very good although im not sure i agree with #9 -: Daylight Saving Time (or Summer Time as it is called in many countries) is a way of getting more out of the summer days by advancing the clocks by one hour during the summer. Then, the sun will appear to rise one hour later in the morning when people are usually asleep anyway, at the benefit of one hour longer evenings when awake: The sunset and sunrise are one hour later than during normal time. DST could save energy (less artificial light is needed during the evening) and make the country more efficient in addition to the pleasing effect of lighter evenings. To make DST work, the clocks have to be adjusted one hour ahead when DST begins (during spring), and adjusted back one hour to standard time every autumn. There are many countries observing DST, and many who do not. Note, during the months March/April-September/October, the countries on the northern hemisphere are having their summer and may observe DST, while the countries in the southern hemisphere are having winter. During the rest of the year (September/October-March/April) is the opposite: Winter on the northern hemisphere, summer in the southern... and there might be DST in countries south of equator, but there are many exceptions to this. Benjamin Franklin suggested the method in 1784, but it was first during World War I, in 1916 in several counties in Europe that DST was adopted, although it was proposed several times before, but rejected. Daylight Saving Time is difficult to predict in future, many countries change the transition days/principles every year because of special happenings or conditions that has happened or will happen.

Faith, looked at getting one for her in doors, mental motors for the size of car. I can see you in that you nutter.

Yeah thought so, i guess if they can sell them for that fair play.

Sorry for Off Topic Matt: Can you check your mail re: arrangements.

Feck that is a bad old one. Looks like the new one has already caught a fly or two. Chris Wilsons SMIC's are top quality. I feel way happier with mine fitted.
