  2. Just on the TRD front Bumper, I mocked it up the weekend and looks like it may need to be modified to fit Will try take a look again this weekend, I may need to remove the bumper but it was catching; will be a PITA if you have the oil filter in the stock location, everytime you do an oil change you will need to remove the front bumper I may need to either cut or maybe try reshape the Aluminium
  3. In Ireland we only have 95 octane so was using it to help towards detonation rather than as a performance gain and to keep my internals nice and clean
  4. Anybody Looking on the Aquamist forum , it is very technical; you could spend hours reading and still be confused Few Supra threads but nothing informative that I found
  5. Thanks , last q If I install WI will it cause the carbon deposits to dislodge and maybe cause engine issues?
  6. Thanks, looking into it Recommend and reasonably priced kits?
  7. Hope you are sitting down €162.72+vat each
  8. Will do but I would really like to get lock out struts , might try and see if I can fabricate something with the brackets off the old struts too My car is in the garage, can anybody measure the strut length please, will see if I can get lock out struts in similar length or at least price them
  9. I think by the time I ship mine from Ireland and get the new ones back OEM ones will be just as expensive Will see what they cost off Toyota
  10. Anybody know of any new boot struts for resonavble money? Will land rovers fit with the lockout on them? Or any aluminium ones fit?
  11. mine came in with one from Japan, considering removing it myself
  12. Thanks Nic They found them in the end, not too sure what the Parts manager was doing

  15. I didnt find anything in the workshop manuals or when I did a search What is the interval on doing the Fuel filter ? Mine was last done August 2010, about 20,000 miles
  16. http://www.toyodiy.com/parts/p_J_1993_TOYOTA_SUPRA_JZA80-ALFQZ_4102.2.html 42431 DISC, REAR 42431-14150 OD=324; FR; 235/45, RR; 255/40 2 $189.95 42431-30140 OD=307 Which part is it for mine? Both have Qty 2 against them
  17. Just on oil Coolers, Oil breakdown and excessive oxidation will take place above 130 degrees oil temp, generally hp is lost over 115 degrees, under hard driving an oil cooler is only recommended if the oil is regularly in excess of 120 degrees Too cold oil is just a detrimental to an engine , wear and tear plus loss in power ; dropping oil temps down to 85 degrees will cost at least 1% hp Unless you need one, you are causing yourself unnecessary trouble fitting one, if your temps are around 110-120 degress under normal driving conditions , you can still run at WOT for a few miles before temps become an issue If you still want to fit one (With the help of Chris W) , it is best practice to to have the fittings at the top , and run an oil filter that has an anti drain back valve. Reason remote mounted oil filters can be a bad idea, if you retain the stock oil filter position just off the side of the block, it will be in the best position for the anti drive back valve to keep the cooler and lines full of oil during long engine off periods. Then when you start the engine the pump doesn't have to refill all the lines and cooler before the engine bearings see oil pressure. Makes a HUGE difference to cold start wear and tear, and is just "good practice". Oil filter maker's sites will show if a particular filter has an anti drain back valve, or with a bit of experience you can look down the threaded mounting hole and see in many cases. https://tpoparts.com/images/OilFilterCompare_4.png The outer shell or housing The spring, which seats the filter against the mounting plate The filter core itself The anti-drainback valve (this keeps oil inside the engine when the motorcycle is parked) The mounting plate The box https://tpoparts.com/articles/oilfiltercompare.html
