  1. To be fair though, some of the club rules are only enforced when the mods want them to be. When others break them they just turn a blind eye.
  2. There is some real cockamamie stuff going on with this build now, be different by all means but some of the recent ideas are absolutely farcical.
  3. Homer give CW a bell, he replaced mine for a very reasonable cost
  4. I guess if you don't want to abide by the terms and conditions you agreed with when you signed up then you are left with no other choice than to look else where
  5. As a part time taxi driver do you know who the GTR boys insure with?
  6. You should have told them to find a car of that spec for sale at that price and come back to you. Definitely bring it up with the mods, if the Traders have to be voted in and out why should Sky get a free ride. I'm not sure how much of this applies today?
  7. Is that all you get from Sky? I guess they have become complacent over the years, Traders have to put money towards the Club and get voted in or out by the members but Sky Insurance get a permanent place without doing anything?! Doesn't seem right to me.
  8. It couldn't hurt to give it a try, I would also point out that their "club support" has been seriously lacking for several years now. Maybe we could try and find a new insurer to deal with the club?

    A few stories albeit from the Express, last one made me laugh. http://www.express.co.uk/news/uk/650120/France-ferries-Calais-migrants-Britain-hours-EU-out-vote-referendum-Brexit http://www.express.co.uk/news/uk/650141/EU-coastline-Brussels-super-coastguard-UK-migrant-crisis http://www.express.co.uk/news/world/650246/Germany-bans-pork-cafes-schools-offending-Muslim-migrants
  10. That is slightly bad/worrying news from Sky, aren't they supposed to be the clubs "insurer"?
  11. I know Ellis had a set of CW suspension on his old UK spec, unfortunately he only has 2 photos available and I can't say if they are with this fitted. It would probably be worth while dropping him a pm to see if he has any other photos. http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/vbpicgallery.php?do=big&p=910 DanDan's car- http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/vbpicgallery.php?do=view&g=3414 now owned by mwilkinson - http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/vbpicgallery.php?do=view&g=672
  12. I assume Nic is taking about something like this - http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Xenon-HID-Conversion-KIT-Wire-H1-HID-Relay-40A-Loom-Direct-Power-From-Battery-/251407425059?hash=item3a890cde23:g:-pwAAOSwstxVQhRm
  13. I really wouldn't bother as the work involved in making it good goes well beyond just fitting, see here for what a cheap manifold will look like inside - http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?317548-Jacks-6266-TT6-Build&p=4119593&viewfull=1#post4119593
  14. That is a great price, CW's suspension is spot on. Once I have the the cash together for another visit this will be the route I am taking.
  15. I think Keron has just bought a write off with one http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?331575-anyone-know-a-supra-M800SUP
  16. Post 4 here - http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?331579-Reccommend-me-a-TIG-)&p=4123294#post4123294 his contact details are in his sig

    I don't, when you realise how much money from the UK goes towards helping out French farmers and France it makes perfect sense to use scaremonger tactics. When they threatened taking the French boarder control away from the Channel Tunnel our response should have been, no problem we will blow it up. Worst days work they did building that bloody thing!
  18. I think so but it isn't cheap and is still work in progress, fit a Syvecs S6+ standalone which will control the engine & box.
  19. Nic, do you know of any mechanic manuals for the tiptronic box?
  20. IPT - http://www.importperformancetrans.com/catalog/toyota-lexus-transmission-rebuild-kit/a340-aw4-rebuild-kit-w-raybestos-blue-plates--1785.html ATF Speed - http://www.atfspeed.com/shop/transmission-parts/a340e-parts/
  21. Not according to the EPC. We have 4x Accumulator Pistons (B-0, B-2, C-0 & C-2) and 3x Solenoids (Line Pressure, Lock Up & Shift) I think this is where the mix up. I'm just double checking now There are different part numbers at the crossover point auto to tiptronic. E2A Matt's photo above appears to confirm this.
  22. Looking at toyodiy internally the boxes appear the same, apart from the valve body so in theory the IPT rebuild kit that contains the Raybestos plates and upgraded billet parts from ATF *should* fit. It's the way I will be looking to go when the time comes.
