Happy Birthday mate glad you are still on here giving advice on your birthday
-
Thanks for looking - the flats seem to be cosmetic and CW advises I need a new rad. Oh well Anyone have any thoughts about which rad to go for? BPU at the moment with future mods one day including going single.
-
Hey all Just taken a look and found my problem (see attached pics) Question is, can that be fixed with a part or is this the Supra Deity's way of making me uprate my whole rad?
-
OK, that makes sense. I just wonder what the black wire is for. I may just remove it
-
Since I got cut up by another driver yesterday and was unable to respond, I thought I better sort out my horn Included with my supra specific boss kit was a wiring adaptor (pic attached). I see that the stock horn works by grounding the blue wire in the picture, so I assumed the black wire is a handy ground - but jam the wires together and nothing happens. Where do I get a ground from if it's not that black wire? Anyone know if any of the other pins in that connector block is a ground?

oh and I think the yellow one is the heater control ECU Put it like this they both aren't needed to drive the car as mine are on the floor is the passenger footwell at presentt

If thats on top of the radio area then it's the antenna relay control box thingy

You don't know what you have until you say goodbye!

Well mate her brains live on in my car -
I just bought some philips bluevision for a "HID look" but I fear they are going to be too blue, we'll see
-
Man, that's dedication. Respect to you
-
Oh dear lord. That image is not one I want to contemplate just before bed time
-
Thanks mate will try that
-
I did think of that, I would have to take my wheel off it's quick release mech as I don't want to strain it. I will give that a go as a last resort as I don't want to end up with a warped steering wheel... or am I being paranoid?
-
Mate thanks but it's making my brain melt. You mean push something through the side of the boss kit? I am not sure I can do that, there's only a small hole
-
Lol didn't even know mine wasn't the stock pressure. I'll get it changed mate, cheers!
-
I've tried pulling it off with a claw hammer, tapping it with a rubber mallet, glaring at it, swearing lots but I'll be buggered if I can get it off. Anyone got any tricks of the trade?
-
Thanks Nic I will have a go with that tomorrow, Im confident it's not a big deal
-
Will have a look, but I think it's just where the blue hose has popped off slightly - the brown bit never used to be visible.
-
Well our very own CW did it so hopefully it's the right stuff.

After a spirited drive just now, I notice a small amount of smoke/vapour coming out of the bonnet, I open it up and there's a bit of coolant around the radiator area. Switch the engine off and it hisses like a very large hissing thing, steam spewing everywhere from the top rad pipe. It calms down and I reckon I've lost less than half a litre of coolant. Peak water temperature during my run was 94 degrees, temperature about 5 mins after turning the engine off was 110 degrees. Do you guys reckon I'm safe to clean up, top up and tighten hoses?

Anyone remember the Gimli Glider incident? Fascinating story. http://www.wadenelson.com/gimli.html

More to the point how much trouble would he be in if he went up the back of your supe? I was sat in a Skyline being towed, steering and braking and it was the most stressful journey of my life and that was only 60 minutes. We found out afterwards that it probably was illegal on the motorway if not the whole journey...

For me I'd like a Facelift Manual set. TRD logo. 180mph, Reverse glow, Black with White text. Special inverter. Anything else u need to know? And when do u need money?

Apparently the pilot says he lost all power and all electronics... scary... I bet they were using shiny aftermarket battery terminal clips and they fell off!
