  1. Thanks for the advice, I have the Odula kit and slim line boss but wear n tear on the Odula kit is forcing me to invest in a new kit Really want the worksbell kit plus it is (unless something has change since I last read up about the kit)the only kit fully approved for the Shaken in Japan Was just wondering if it is worth the extra $$ but I suppose you get what you pay for but in this case you are also paying for the name I reckon Odula Kit http://www.rhdjapan.com/media/catalog/product/cache/1/image/5e06319eda06f020e43594a9c230972d/17692/Image/Normal/Image3.jpg
  2. They both look identicle but Driftworks is 1/3 of the price Anybody have any experiance with either? Driftworks http://www.driftworks.co.uk/catalog/images/large/quickrelease2a.jpg WorksBell
  3. Can only get it off •Iridium Engineering Services, Portsmouth, AAS never got back to me it is £17.50 + Vat off these per 1QT Since 1qt is 0.946L and the gearbox takes 2 Liters , will I get away with just 2 QT's? £47.25 altogetehr for 2QT's delivered to Ireland
  4. ha ha Not for you, other peoples misfortune putting a smile on our faces
  5. What a plonker , ha ha it happens to the best of us
  6. I like it bt:) http://www.themotorreport.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2008/writer/NissanGTRPlusNissanStageItBegins_11E98/nissangtrr35wagon_03_thumb.jpg http://www.themotorreport.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2008/writer/NissanGTRPlusNissanStageItBegins_11E98/nissangtrr35wagon_02_thumb.jpg
  7. Was reading up about AFM(Air Flow Meter) , MAP(Manifold Absolute Pressure) & MAF(Mass Air Flow) From what I can see , reading here and on the web Supra TT Jspec uses a MAP setup Supra TT UK/USDM use a MAF ; not too sure if it is different for VVTI or Non VVTI? Hotwire sensor I presume? RB26 uses a AFM Looking on Wikipedia MAF -- When a MAF is used in conjunction with an oxygen sensor, the engine's air/fuel ratio can be controlled very accurately. The MAF sensor provides the open-loop predicted air flow information (the measured air flow) to the ECU, and the oxygen sensor provides closed-loop feedback in order to make minor corrections to the predicted air mass (Hot wire sensor or Vane meter sensor typically used) MAP-- A manifold absolute pressure sensor (MAP) is one of the sensors used in an internal combustion engine's electronic control system. Engines that use a MAP sensor are typically fuel injected. The manifold absolute pressure sensor provides instantaneous manifold pressure information to the engine's electronic control unit (ECU). The data is used to calculate air density and determine the engine's air mass flow rate, which in turn determines the required fuel metering for optimum combustion. MAP sensor data can be converted to air mass data using the speed-density method. Engine speed (RPM) and air temperature are also necessary to complete the speed-density calculation AFM-- An air flow meter is used in some automobiles to measure the quantity of air going into the internal combustion engine. All modern electronically controlled diesel engines use air flow meter,[citation needed] as it is the only possible means of determining the air intake for them. In the case of a petrol engine, the electronic control unit (ECU) then calculates how much fuel is needed to inject into the cylinder ports. In the diesel engine, the ECU meters the fuel through the injectors into the engines cylinders during the compression stroke. Stoichiometry -- One thing I keep see coming up again and again is Stoichiometry; I presume this is in reference to the EGT reading Gas stoichiometry deals with reactions involving gases, where the gases are at a known temperature, pressure, and volume, and can be assumed to be ideal gasses. Few Questions Why are there so many different methods/Sensors to measure AFR; why do all car manufactures not have a standardised method? Why did Toyota use 2 different setups between UK/ USDM and JSPEC ? Where they just showing off? Ha ha Is this why a UK Supra requires 2 Oxygen sensors? One is part of the closed loop system to work with the MAF sensor, why does it need 2 O2 Sensors? Is the Closed loop system and Open loop system only applicable to an MAF and O2 sensor setup?

    best bodykit

    Car looks stunning, the reg plate on the front is one reason I would like to live in the states If you ever get the chance to measure them would be great, might get two new rears with the correct offset

    Mr Wilson, thats Dunks car me thinks; pity about the front Reg you have to have in the UK man is that huge, one fo these Days Dunk will tell me what Offset he is running; if we ever figure it out ha ha

  11. Thanks Stan, just got the Philips today so hopefully wont need to touch them for a few years
  12. Dont think so, all too far away and its on in 3 weeks
  13. Have any pics, or do you want to keep this mod to yours Probably will just get a Chrome one off Paul in Whifbitz this month
  14. You should of seen me last week after I put in the new Oil cooler in, trying to get the Bumper back on , P$$ rain, on my back on the deck, my face 2 mm from the Bumper trying to bolt it back on, with a small river running through my legs, tools soaked If a cliff was near by she was goin off it The joys of Mechanics and owning a Jap super car
  15. Not a hope in hell with mine, she also has the inner Ducting unit bolted inside the Bumper to the chassis with the Mesh attached to it. Even with the Lights out it is tight, for me its either Lights out or bumper off
  16. I am 99% sure they use Osram bulbs(Mercedes & BMW), its the same on the New big 4 door saloon Lexus(reg plate Lights) http://www.powerbulbs.com/product_detail.asp?prod=128
  17. Headlights out with a TRD bumper, it is a pain in the rear I find it is a hit and miss with the ebay LEDs on Quality control, fed up replacing them on the reg and front I say the philips will last you for at least a year or 2 if not more
  18. I think so, you pay for what you get and the hassle too of changing them Philips Blue Vision LED W5W T10 6000K £38.99 £38.99 FREE Philips Premium W5W Sidelight Bulbs (Twin Pack) 1 FREE FREE Delivery £FREE Voucher Discount (10%) Edit Voucher Code -£3.90 Total £35.09 Heres the price with promo code Powerbulbs.co.uk http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?t=59734 Might replace the indicator bulbs too while I have the lights out
  19. Thanks Ric, What you think of the Philips rip off? Whats the Difference between an LED Bulb and an SMD LED? These are the ones I got off Ebay last week http://www.1topstore.com/images/products_images/unfurl/bt51.jpg
  20. Thats what I am thinking, I hate taking the lights in and out always a danger something will get damaged. Must of taken the front lights out about 6 times in the last month I have it down to mins now instead of an hour
  21. Cool , sent him a PM but all I can see on the Web is the Philips at 34 pound; Just fed up replacing the Ebay ones, reg rear only lasted 3 months http://www.regalautobulbs.co.uk/Images/Products/ledw5wbluevision.png
  22. Thanks Jake, will do. Is he the LED man?
  23. Got Some LED W5W 501 Fittings off Ebay, was delighted with them till I dropped one behind the bumper (not a chance of getting it or seeing where it went with the front diffuser) Couldnt find the LED's I got(or anything similar in the pics on ebay) and appears the seller([email protected] or WORLDSOUNDC) is no longer there; So I ordered another set of LED's off another seller. The Quality on these is crap,but I replaced the missing bulb and it was working fine, so put everything back togeter to find out after a drive it is not working now. Was thinking if any of the top brands like Osram do them or Philips, Osram closest looks like Cool Blue but it is a Bulb filament not LED and Philips have new LED range but they are very $$$ at 33 pound GBP. http://www.powerbulbs.com/product_list_search.asp Any idea's or recomendations,
