  1. Will get new , cars are too old now for second hand mechanical parts
  2. Thanks! Will start pricing up a new mechanism
  3. I can get more plastic if it is needed but I was going to put in the 17.5 cm speakers so seen people remove it
  4. Had to remove that plastic , what's that for ?
  5. Took off the door card, window is buried in there, I tried to pull up the window only will go third of the way, when you try to use the button it sounds like the cable is splintering in the lower section if the door, will strip out the motor tomorrow but I reckon new cable mechanism
  6. So you cannot just buy a cable I presume, due to the age of the car i doubt it just popped off will take the door card off tonight
  7. I am afraid not, just have the car cover over it , ah crap , need it the weekend
  8. Hey Was just paying for parking , tried to put the window back up and it wouldnt go , then it started to drop into the door Sounds like the motor is still working though, window popped off the regulator ? easy job for the DIY Car is in a public car park now with no drivers window
  9. One of the R32 guys got the MTecs , look nice
  10. Love it Abz! One of the older guys I see most Saturday mornings getting his newspaper , stopped for a chat while I was washing the car, he told me he was a sales man in Toyota back in the 90's and remembers when the Supra launched. They took delivery of the first Irish Supra but on arrival the transporter stopped a bit too abruptly and the Supra from the top front tier ended on its roof. He said the driver just put the keys on the seat of the truck and headed off into the sunset lol A few weeks after I was parked in Dublin city waiting to collect somebody, nice sunny day, a guy in a tweed jacket approached my window, said he was managing director of Toyota Ireland back in the 90's and loved the car , he said he use to drive one, small world ! As far as I know , Eddie Irvine (Ex Irish F1 Driver) is the only person who bought one new here in Ireland
  11. My friends Skyline had the Driftworks traction rods and they are junk, knocking and rusted after a few 100 km Bit they are a lovely orange color

  13. They are junk, friend had them on his Skyline , rusted and started knocking after a few hundred KM's, had to get a new set after a year , knocked again even after they said they had a new design , he just got Nismo I would only get OEM unless it was a track car and then Ikeya formula but the rose joints would need replacing on a regular basis plus I dont think the Ikeya formula rose joints are the best quality to start with. Toyota spemd a few pound on the R&D , some of the oem arms (Front upper arms I think) even use spherical bushes so even replaying OEM bushes with a polyurethane bush is even a down grade I think the lads in Japan knew what they where at, they are a great bunch of lads

  16. Also getting a price off Jesse Streeter, will let you know
  17. Ask rob chops@mvp on here , but just factor in 10 working days for Toyota to get them to Rob [email protected]
  18. Hard to install setup, 2jz instructions? My avcr is a bit bulky
  19. They are just maintenance stages , I am sure you can add in a few more The new products out now, you will wonder how the hell you ever used that cheap dusty crap
  20. If you want to look up your parts, prices and get part numbers http://www.villagetoyotaparts.com/showAssembly.aspx?ukey_assembly=359669&ukey_product=2064407 I normally look them up here and shoot off an email to MVP Motorsports with my order
  21. SRP is a polish, it acts as a filler too if you have swirls but you dont need to have any , also the new SRP formula is not as dusty or hard to wipe off So normal stages are , wash, Glaze or Polish , Sealant and or Wax For you wheels , HD wax is excellent as it is durable Chemical guys products are ral ease to apply and remove , unlike the current wax you are using. You will be wondering why you where breaking your arm all these years putting that on / off
  22. On Sale from RHD Japan http://www.rhdjapan.com/trust-greddy-profec-electronic-boost-controller.html I can get it for 215 gbp shipped to Ireland
  23. Thats Crap stuff , HD Wax is relatively cheap but $$ if you get it in Halfords ; I have my tub over 2 years now and about fraction into it. I use it every 2 months , it is very hard wearing and the finish is excellent. I have yet to come across a better wax, with regards durability, shine, ease of application I get it for 45 euro, you get 2 applicator pads and a buffing cloth I have used alot of waxes , even my mates Zymol 3K sterling per 300ml lol If you want to go cheaper get some Chemical guys Black light / or Jet seal 109 (Jet seal will return a more duller appearance than black light but is a better sealant); Just because Chemical guys can be cheaper , it does not meant it is bad stuff, It is just as good if not better If I really want the car to pop, I would use chemical guys black light and V7 Hybrid , as you see in the Pics below For value for money and ease of application plus quality of products Chemical Guys is fairly hard to beat but Auto glym SRP (super resin polish) And HD wax are two of the best products out there In between waxing I just V7 Hybrid to top up the sealant and shine on the car , regardless if I use Auto glym or Chemical guys products on her. Auto Glym SRP (Super Resin Polish) is fantastic for filling in swirls in your cars paint work If you go to the bother of waxing the car , dont forget to use a wax safe shampoo when you wash your car next, if you are using the local garage shampoo, you will more than likely strip the wax. It is a very strong detergent watered down, I remember one of the garages forgot to water it down and it stripped the paint, imagine what that will do to you nicely waxed car Zymol , auto Glym Body shampoo are some examples of wax safe shampoo's Chemical guys Black light & V7 Hybrid Auto Glym SRP (Super Resin Polish) & HD Wax
