  1. Sounds awesome, will check it out. Good luck with it!
  2. She's the best! Glad you've managed to get back in the Supra fold, what are you building?
  3. Sorry for the delay in getting back to you, I had a lot of interest in the car which genuinely surprised me. I'm afraid I'm going to take it off sale, my friends and especially my wife have talked me out of it (I knew I married the right one!). The thought of selling the car really made me miserable, and as all my friends have said, I will regret it. So I'll keep her and hopefully this year I'll be able to get her running again and enjoy her for a few more years. Apologies to everybody who contacted me, it was never my intention to mess anybody around. It seemed like the right thing to do but other possibilities have come to light over the last couple of days.
  4. Change of plan - no longer for sale. It is with a very heavy heart that my beloved Supra goes up for sale. Please read the whole add before messaging, and please keep any negative comments to yourself. Genuine UK manual Supra, owned by myself since 2006 with 152k miles. Full body restoration in 2018 addressing some rust and with a full glass-out respray including refurbishing the alloys in a gun metal grey. Originally owned by Formula 1 driver Ukyo Katayama, with log book to prove. While file of paperwork from the years. I started on a conversion to single turbo but got slowed down by the pandemic, and then completely stopped with a new baby arriving last July. The car is currently mid-conversion and so undriveable but has everything needed to complete, as below. To complete it needs the fuel lines finishing, inlet manifold re-assembling, the ECU and associated sensors wiring in, and then a mapping session. So not a lot of work or money to complete. This has everything needed for 600+bhp. Current spec: - Rota GTR 18” wheels, 8.5” front, 9.5” rear with Goodyear Eagle F1 Assymetric tyres all round - Blitz Nur Spec exhaust - Whifbitz 3” decat pipes - Whifbitz FMIC - Recaro confetti seats - OS Giken TS2CD, full overhaul kit fitted in 2014 and covered less than 6k miles - Front calipers overhauled 2019 with genuine Toyota kit - Rear light clear indicator conversion - Facelift headlights - Facelift clear front indicators - Clear side repeaters - Innovate LM-1 wideband sensor and LMA-3 aux box Fitted but not yet used (all brand new): - PHR Street Torque Kit; PHR log manifold, Precision 6266 0.81A/R turbo, Precision 46mm wastegate - Whifbitz Top Feed Fuel Rail - ID1050X injectors with PnP tails - Braided fuel lines for the top feed rail and removal of fuel damper Not yet fitted: - Whifbitz twin-box 3” exhaust - Brand new Toyota front subframe support - Complete set of genuine Toyota discs and pads - Rear caliper overhaul kit with Chris Wilson stainless steel pistons - Link G4+ PnP ECU with MAP sensor, boost control solenoid, IAT sensor, and XS loom - Burna's Link ECU 3D printed covers - Walbro 455 Fuel Pump - Fuel Pressure regulator with gauge - Most of a full Genuine Toyota head gasket kit Also comes with: - The entire stock twin turbo system - A complete genuine standard exhaust minus the rear cat as it started blowing - A spare 2.5” rear decat pipe that I was planning on getting fitted with a cat for MOTs - The active spoiler set up that was removed to fit the FMIC The bad bits: - The Recaro’s are tatty and in need of new foam and a re-trim - The dashboard panels could do with stripping and re-coating, they’re not awful though - The gear stick gaitor/trim isn’t original and doesn’t fit well - The front bumper has some damage around the driver-side headlight washer where my mates car rolled in to it - There are signs of the paint bubbling slightly on the sills under the doors - The rear lights have a tendency to mist up and need re-sealing - The rear steel part of the front subframe is rotten through, but the car comes with a brand new one to fit The engine oil has been changed every 3000 miles or annually depending on which has come sooner, for many years this has been annual as it hasn’t covered many miles at all. Spark plugs were always changed at the same time with NGK coppers to the correct heat rating and gapping. The original radiator was replaced a couple of years ago with once from Chris Wilson that is very similar to the original design. The cam belt has been changed as required (I have invoices for the work) and at the last change the front main seal was replaced too. The water pump has also been replaced during my ownership, probably about ten years ago. I’ve owned this car for nearly 15 years and am very attached to it. My situation means I could do with selling it, but I am fully aware of how rare it is and so ask that you do not make offers. The asking price is the asking price, I will not be swayed. If it doesn’t sell I’ll try and sell one of my poorly functioning kidneys instead. The car is in East Sussex for viewing, obviously once coronavirus restrictions allow. You will obviously need to trailer the car away.
  5. Ok, assumed it would be something that was discontinued. Will see what they're going for when everything opens up again.
  6. Hi All, I'm in need of the steel front cross member, the bit that bolts to the alloy subframe. Anybody got one for sale? Thanks, Mark.
  7. Thanks for the replies, I’ll investigate those. Typical that last time I looked at eBay there wasn’t anything there! Ideally, but I’ve given up on finding one, or at least one not requiring a remortgage!
  8. Hi All, Still looking for a standard front bumper, colour doesn't matter but needs to be in good condition, no cracks and not bent. Thanks, Mark.
  9. Hi, I've upgraded to 3" pipes so these are surplus to requirements. Have been on the car over ten years but in good condition. Downpipe has boss for wideband lambda sensor and is for UK turbos. I believe the second pipe will fit UK and Jap. Collection only from Crowborough, East Sussex. £120.
  10. Hi All, I'm looking for a standard pre-facelift front bumper. Colour doesn't matter as it will be painted, but must be straight and free from cracks. Many thanks, Mark.
  11. Sorry, now added. That'll teach me for copying from the Facebook group!
  12. Black carpet, originally grey, just dyed again and comes with a spare bottle of black dye (just in case). In very good condition, couple of flat spots but would be covered by mats anyway. It’s not patchy as it looks in the photos! £60 Collection from Crowborough, East Sussex. [ATTACH=CONFIG]232117[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]232118[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]232119[/ATTACH]
