  1. I got the OEM kit to replace the seals on my OEM 4pot/2pot brakes , noticeable difference in pedal feel after , very easy to modulate the pedal now ; stopping power is excellent 04479-14140 Front Brake Caliper Overhaul Kit 04479-14130 Rear Brake Caliper Overhaul Kit
  2. Any reason you are going LQ9 , price point? I know they have a stronger spark but not too sure if it makes a difference , plenty of people using OEM coils with no issues in high hp motors Another thing I was wondering , do you keep the same plug gap? I am between two minds to defer from OEM and over complicate things I know of some guys using Bosch coilpacks out of the Audi R8 (i think they are) on the 2jz , more up north in Scandinavia
  3. You going Stock ECU , and running an IGF box?
  4. Anybody running the LQ9 coilpacks?
  5. Thanks for the heads up I have cam seals and rocker cover seals plus adjustable cam gears
  6. Cool Thanks! - - - Updated - - - I will just grab some off Ebay , Thanks though!
  7. Stunning car , one of my favourites!

  9. Hey I put in new front speakers and the MDF brackets The Plug nearest the igniton on the door card did not go back in and it fell out when I opened the door, anybody have one spare or idea of where to get one ? Halfords maybe?
  10. Anybody recommend where I can get Shims , assorted sizes for when installing the cams Or Just best to measure and buy whats needed? Maybe they are $$$ Are MR2 Gen III turbo lightweight buckets and top hat shims easy to get hold of or $$$
  11. Thanks Mine are sitting in the box here , waiting to go in, just waiting on all my parts to arrive Great to hear good feedback on them
  12. Anybody see any bushes you can get to replace , cheaper than buying new Strut rods 10
  13. http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?317182-ATi-Titan-Belt just for the pulley its 6pk1975 not too sure with the aircon gone
  14. I got a new OEM Water Pump + Housing in 2 days off Toyota for 161 Euro , just the waterpump is alot cheaper
  15. New OEM I am afraid , you are wasting you time with a 2nd hand pump, they are not expensive its the labour
  16. In non technical terms , Coolant comes out there to warn u you your pump is done
  17. The concept will make its debut next week, January 26, and Toyota promises that while being fun to drive, it will also “change the face of motoring.” Any idea's? https://autos.yahoo.com/news/toyota-teases-fun-drive-rnd-concept-203009173.html?utm_content=buffer6e039&utm_medium=social&utm_source=facebook.com&utm_campaign=buffer
  18. Good News , I found this mystical magical bolt in my tool pouch , it worked! As it is an open ended nut welded to the seat frame, ( opposite side it is a tight space between the seat cushion and the nut ) ,I was able to get this small bolt with the same thread pattern threaded and without touching the seat cushion. I threaded it down the barrel and it removed the slag, just tested the Recaro bolt from the correct side and it is all working as expected now ! Bit of luck! Hopefully thats the end of the issues
  19. All I can think of with this threaded nut and slag is either send it back or get a tapered file Their quality control is disgusting
  20. I didnt open the seats or anything , there's a gap in the rear shell you can get your finger in to place the nut , its just awkward I woundnt even attempt to take the seats apart , only reason why I did it myself , if they needed to take them apart they were going straight back
  21. I know Thanks ! - - - Updated - - - Its not
  22. I am not happy , but no other way to attach the seats to the rails , few guys in the US have the seats and this is how you do it Its safe and you wont see it
  23. I really did not want to start a thread on this , but to say I am pee'd off is an understatement ; I paid alot of money for these seats Issues Two nuts on each seat were threaded, the company who I bought the seats off (Official Recaro UK dealer) decided it was acceptable to sit the bolt into the hole on either seat and hope in the anticipation I would not notice , laziness I cannot stand especially when you are paying premium dollar , I fixed this myself after 2 hours per seat , feeding a new nut into the shell with string and centering it with a tweezers New issue is one of the threaded seat base holes has , what looks like a piece of slag on it , I cannot get the bolt to thread onto the welded nut, any idea's how to remove the slag from the hole? I am trying my best not to send these back to the UK Pics: Its difficult to photograph
  24. Its working , might try it with 3 washers Hope it sits low enough in the car
  25. They also do new parts , just most people with Jap cars are cheap asses so there is no market in new parts
