Thanks for the input I'm not looking to retain the active spoiler, just the front undertray because it "seal" the front of the car very well! Will see what can be done

Hi, searched around but didn't find a clear answer. I'm going single on my Euro Spec Supra (TT,Aero, 6speed) and looking to remove the active spoiler to make space for an Ets intercooler kit (30x12x4"). I think the front undertray that come away with the active spoiler is quite usefull for the aerodynamics and cooling effect on the rad! There's a way to retain this undertray while fitting a large fmic? Thanks in advance and sorry for my schoolish english Cheers Adriano

Nothing to worry about then , i was quite worry with this thing hitting around my bumper. Thanks guys

Hi , found this sensor/connector hanging in the front bumber area (near the horn), i was looking in a workshop manual found on the web without much success, my car is a 1995 Lhd Euro Supra (Aero-TT-6speed) I'm thinking about couple of things: Srs Airbag sensors or Fuel Cut sensor that cut fuel pressure in case of incident. Please help me identify this bastard and his mounting point, pics attached.

Lots of good infos here , as a rough guide about "size/spoolup/max hp" is this correct for non-ball bearing version of these turbos? Gt35r -> Gt4082 -> T61 -> Gt4088 -> T67 Thanks in advance for any input Adriano

Lol, come on people don't be shy, there's a sardinian giant can of worms for each one of you Micheal: This Bernard Matthews?

Less disgusting that you could thought , impressive for sure...first time you eat it is a little shocking, all these little things moving in your mouth...brrrr . After that is really good if you like strong taste cheese. My father is from Sardinia and we go there every year in holiday, Sardinian food is a bit "rude" ("little pigs" on live coal, echinus and mussels eaten alive, rivers of cannonau wine ) but very genuine if you are local. These are homemade products, that only in the last years are available worldwide and imho this is the problem, such particular kind of food aren't for exports and distribution. If you go over there and eat like Sardians i think you should never have any problems (in fact never heard relatives with such diseases), because they know where, what and how to eat things . Just an example of the meaning "how to eat", eat alive mussels is dangerous because you could get poisoned, but in sardinia they eat alive mussels from ages, because: a) sea is yet uncontaminated b) locals get fish from friends' fisherman c) only if it's just been fished (they know how to check it) d) they check the mussels (closed are not good plus other checks) and select it one by one e) they prepare mussels with natural lemon juice an hour before you eat it, this help cleaning and clearing mussels f) they eat mussels drinking lots of cannonau, which is quite a strong red whine (homemade could be 15-18% vol), alcoholic grade help either clearing. g) Meal usually finish with a couple of "filu e ferru" (translation "wire of iron"), strong distilled grape-like liqueur often between 50-70% vol, which kill every bacterium in mussels, and maybe yourself if you aren't strong enough Wow, long answer...hope i haven't made too many grammar errors A couple of pics of Villasimius beach, 20km from my father village, what a nice place! http://www.sardegnadelsud.com/foto/sud-est/villasimius.jpg

Ciao Andrea, nice to meet you here

Ops, sorry for the delay! i've been busy trying to sell my Silvia....which is still in my garage atm, more difficult than i thought. Thanks again for the kind comments! mr keef: Glad you like Italy, Sorrento is a very nice city! paulrenn: Probably , i tried to lower the price and they accepted without a word. Only joking about mods turbonut: I think Italy (as usual) is years behind the rest of Europe, we have lots of stupid laws, just one big online community (http://www.elaborare.com) and only a couple of really big car shows However i'm not in the scene anymore, too much attention to big aesthetics mods and ice.....not my taste (no offence to anyone!) i'm focused about performance with little aesthetics mods to emphasize the sport look of a car. Charlotte: What kind of Italian things you like more, Ferrari&Lamborghini or pizza&spaghetti? This is an hard choice i know

Thanks everybody for the kind comments, and yes the white rabbit make a lot of heads turn here . Nic: Japan/Usa aftermarket parts price are crazy high in Italy, i bought 99% of my 200sx parts in Japan, Usa and of course Uk (apexperformance, driftworks,ecc.). I'll give a ring very soon . Night Adriano

Thanks guys, here Supras MkIV doesn't have market at all, i'm not sure if it was officially sold in Italy; there are only few importers and price for a TT6 imported to Italy are more or less: Rhd J-spec starting from 16.000£ / 24.000€ Lhd Euro starting from 20.000£ / 30.000€ These are base price for model in average/good condition; with major mods or really low mileage the price climb up rapidly. Paid my car 14.000£ / 21.000€, that's why i have a big smile on my face . Just a couple of things that needs attention, a major service and she's ready for the hot summer. Hey it's an Aerotop, so not everybody cup of tea . Bone stock apart from 18" wheels. Stupid ride height at the front because wheel is in a hole http://xoomer.alice.it/blitz80/pics/cars/supra/800/supra01 http://xoomer.alice.it/blitz80/pics/cars/supra/800/supra02 http://xoomer.alice.it/blitz80/pics/cars/supra/800/supra03 Notice the best part of the dash, Jeeg keychain http://xoomer.alice.it/blitz80/pics/cars/supra/800/supra04 Aero view, my s14a on the left http://xoomer.alice.it/blitz80/pics/cars/supra/800/supra05 Leather seats in really good nick, apart from the driver seats in the left part, too fatty owner?! http://xoomer.alice.it/blitz80/pics/cars/supra/800/supra06 Not sure if i like the wheels....however first mods i will do: graphics f&f style, underbody neons and exhaust flame kit, any other ideas? OK ok, only joking , i will go for: refurbishing my euro headlights (one have a small leak) facelift style, clear front/side indicators, new discs/pads and some of the bpu mods. Cheers Adriano

Hi there from Rome , my name is Adriano and i'm 27 (yesterday!). Initially joined this community only for importing a Supra, but found very good technical info and friendship spirit, you are great people, you know? After three years of happy 200sx ownership (cheers to all sxoc members here) i was looking to import my dreamcar from Uk/German (because Supras are very rare in Italy) when i had what we usually call "a big lucky kick in the ass" .....looking on autoscout24.de i found a Supra in Italy, Left hand drive, great condition and at very good price! What a lucky bugger i am! 1995 Aerotop TT 6speed imported from Germany by the first, rich owner; car was used very rarely cruising around Modena and most of the time stored in a "heated" box for the last 12 years....now it's mine and i'm loving it every moment . Will post pics soon. Sorry for my schoolish english Cheers Adriano
