  1. GASKET, INTAKE MANIFOLD TO HEAD, NO.1 17177-46031 GASKET, AIR SURGE TANK TO INTAKE MANIFOLD 17176-46030
  2. That is pretty poor advice. If the their guy does that to glass either sack him and employ someone proficient at their job or if he is a 3rd party find someone else. Jeez, what is it with people nowadays. That respray must be costing a fair bit, for that sort of money I'd want a glass out respray.
  3. Looks nice Haven't you already had the back end resprayed? How come you went this far with a respray but didn't take the glass out?
  4. I can't imagine someone would go to the trouble of fitting a Syvecs and piggybacking it to the car when it *should* be more than capable of running the engine & box. Either log into the Syvecs via your laptop and look at the setting or look and see if the autobox ECU is still fitted. Apparently the overdrive button doesn't work after fitting the Syvecs as it controlling everything, maybe that is the reason for it flashing? Do you know who mapped it?
  5. I missed a load of them but managed to catch a few, the missus wasn't too impressed I still have the boxsets of season 1-3 on DVD (shouldn't be too hard to find), not sure if I ever bothered picking up season 4 for obvious reasons (less than one-third of the original CBS budget, no access to Airwolf and all in-flight shots recycled from earlier seasons). I'll be looking to up pick up the Blu-Ray release at some point. If you want them shoot me a pm with your address and i'll get them in the post to you. Have you seen any pictures of Jan-Michael Vincent recently, I know he must be in his early 70's now but wow. Going from Big Wednesday and becoming the highest paid of any actor in American television to where he is now is so sad. Sorry OP, back on topic
  6. Download the PDF here http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?67644-What-to-check-when-buying-a-Supra ABS sensors are expensive to replace and the OEM TC is rather dodgy at the best of times. It would rather kill you than save your life E2A Should you decide you want to check if you take the alloy elbow off the first turbo and also the pipe that goes to the IC you should be able to see if there is any oil present. When turbo seals fail it is very apparent by the amount of oil around the compressor turbine and in the output tube.
  7. Hard to say without seeing a video, it could be water vapour but very doubtful after that time. Maybe burning anti freeze. Maybe the turbos are on their way out. Was there a smell of oil? - - - Updated - - - In Blu-ray buy any chance?
  8. So the car is smoking on hot idle?
  9. Congratulations on the purchase but is it as quick as this? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l8syGlAMTKA PS Get some pictures up.
  10. Give it time man, it's only been advertised a month Just wait for some good weather Gone are they days where these cars could be afforded by those chavy urchins with little to no money, now sales take a little longer as potential owners are finding it difficult to come to terms with the new pricing
  11. Would you say it is over priced or is it actually worth the sort of money it sells it for? Looking at some of the detailers who offer it in their range you are looking at some serious £££'s. It's hard to know if the final results justify the cost. The ISM can apparently give up to 36+ months durability. It all seems a bit far fetched to me.
  12. Sorry to jumping on your thread Greg but I just wanted to ask Peter a quick question about willy waving Peter, what are your thoughts on Kamikaze collection, specifically the ISM?
  13. He had no definitive proof of the mileage on the box so no one was prepared to pay the premium price he wanted for it iirc.
  14. Do you have any auto surrounds with all tabs intact?
  15. Delivered? If so I'll take it please Pm me your payment details
  16. Lovely wheels, good offsets and sensible sizes. I'd be more than happy paying £600 for those. They might be worth a little more but as wheels are so personal you would have to find the right buyer. Any pictures of the damage and water marks?
  17. I'd imagine something like this might just tip him over the edge, current *issues* have been bad enough Thanks very much of doing that, nearly there now!
  18. I want to see someone in the UK fit the 1GZ-FE VVT-i (5 L V12) engine from the Toyota Century into a Supra and turbocharge it. One has been done in the US recently and it sounds beautiful.
  19. So they should the amount of vehicles you have
  20. Is this not something you could be pursuing and showing an interest in resolving? Would it not be good customer service to PM Ric to try and get to the bottom of this?
  21. Alex, rather than not being able to comment would it not be best to contact Ric and ask him for this information so you can come back with a definitive answer? Sky used to provide a decent reliable service for the forum, what happened? You only have to take a look at the various threads on here to see that not one of Sky's representatives sing from the same hymn sheet as the others. Customer service and attitude appears poor along with waiting times when trying to contact Sky. Apart from when people want to take out a new policy, then phones appear to be answered instantly. Maybe some staff training is in order.
  22. Another mention here for the pre-facelift dash this time
