    Hello everyone

    Welcome to the club, no dis-respect to the GT4's (i love them) but how come it's taken until now for you to get a supra? would love to see photo's of the celicas, they must have been pretty special (and supra of course). The genuine toyota OEM skirts are quite rare, but fibre glass ones are readily available, and finding some in 199 silver shouldn't be a problem.
  2. Milton Keynes Toyota are cheap new :http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?241139-Genuine-TOYOTA-UK-SPEC-CALIPERS-AND-DISCS-BRAND-NEW&highlight=spec+brakes
  3. My RSR bung is a tight fit too, I spray it with wd40 first then tap it in with a block of wood and hammer, first time I fitted it, it was stuck for several months because it was too tight, i removed the little M8 bolt in the hope that it would just blow out whilst driving on boost (that didn't work). In the end I bought a slide hammer from amazon for about £20, it came out in about 5 taps , now i can fit it and remove it as I please.
  4. Nice car, as above if I was buying your car i'd probably expect to pay that too (depending on service history/receipts etc).
  5. As others have already said, congrats, those are very impressive figures
  6. I like it, whats the performance figures for one so old?
  7. Photo's don't work mate, sorry to hear about the car, hope you find it.
  8. For what it's worth, i got it, and it made me laugh
  9. It could just be flooded, I would try removing the spark plugs, clean them up and try again. If it's not that I would look at the igniter, they are the usual suspects.
  10. was looking forward to seeing this after reading the intro , lol
  11. That was good actually, got a strange look off my wife when she saw what I was watching though,
  12. I can vouch for CW's seals and stainless pins, just done my front uk calipers a couple of weeks ago, fantastic kit, needed my compressor to blow one of the pistons out but the seals were really easy to change. Turns out the passenger front was binding, works a treat now, car feels so much faster (that maybe because I haven't driven it since about August though, my hdi 307 isn't exactly what i'd call a fast car). I bled my front and back brakes and fully flushed them through with new brake fluid, i used 2 litres but probably didn't need that much. There are a few threads on here about caliper refurbs, most important thing is make sure there is no corrosion on the pistons or the bores, and keep the pistons clean when reassembling (use brake fluid as lubricant).
  13. Nice work mate, i'm gonna do this to my tein super streets before the summer, already bought the green paint (it's no-where near a good match but still better than the flakey old original paint).
  14. Laptop, for about 10 minutes at a time, every hour or two when I get back from work, I spend three quarters of my working day sat at a desk on the computer but some of us have to actually work rather than mess about browsing various forums/facebook etc (not that i'm bitter about it)
  15. Thats the same as when Arsenal win a match (not very often these days I must admit), but whenever we manage 3 points i'll usually say "WE played really well" , it's as if they really wouldn't manage it without my help of course.
  16. I'm liking the gold, blacks okay but the white looks horrible in my opinion.

    Bit of Fun!

    They are death traps, but if anyone can drive one it'll be Jamie, Very nice but slightly scary car
  18. The first ones really good but theres something fishy about the other two
  19. Nice cars, good to see someone doing alright for themselves in the current economic climate.
