usually see a gold one down thier most weekends with i think the top secret kit. but last night spotted 2 gold ones, 1 blue and a silver. bout all i can say really couldnt tell you much more about the cars. was it you?

jst realised that car in the video is a prius i had one of those for like 2 months before i bought the supra. think it looks better standard to be honest and those doors would well anoy me

anyone able to help at all?

Daman havnt you got enough already?

is ther eno posibility to break it up?

whiles out this evening a couple of times going over speed bumps there was a squeeking sound coming from the front end. im guessing bushes. any ideas what else it could be and any advice would be much apriciated. also to note they are tom's coilovers so part cant be that easy to source im guessing.

im down there most saturdays cos i have nothing better to do..., who am i kinda i love it. all the photo's and vid's taken of the car. great fun

yea that was me, was out buying pointless light fittings, and alloy sheets for some custom bits for the car, was going to post this up myself, but didnt think you was a club member. cheers for the comment on the car.

if your not to bothered about not having the dump/bov sound have you thought about the 4.0 v8 conversion from thor racing. its what iv got planned for next summer. it costs about £2000 for the conversion, plus the price of getting the engine, which if you buy the whole lexus soarer for about £600 - £800. i was looking into a na-t bolt on and this v8 option comes out alot cheaper and the best thing is it pulls from the line alot quicker then a turbo supra and the v8 sounds great. the soarer engine can take so much extra abuse aswell. when they realsed it they said the car would rot away before you ever had a major engine problem. also nice to do something different. thor racing said when i spoke to them on the phone the other day that they own the only v8 4.0 supra (with a soarer engine in the uk) im praying to be the second. just bear that idea in mind.

i only own one, but had worked out if we won the euro million on friday we could have a supra for every day of the year for the next 10 years, (roughly)

are you selling the dash trim / consol, if so how much for the lot as mine has had a nasty reaction to spraying. alo, bit of a random one. is the trim that is on the inside of the bootlid available. if so how much for that aswell?

they deserve it, thats for sure, well fingers crossed there caught up with soon enough. cant get my head round it though why they would do that, it really annoys me, and these are probably the sort of young people o have to bloody work with and defend against accusations (think the spelling right) from the police. makes me wonder how many of those young people i supported have infact dodged the bullet

glad you got it sorted mate. insurence companies are always a pain and never really care about how important our cars are to us some times. i am surprised however it was with a company who have always been highly recomended, not that they could ever do me a good deal though. g/f started her new job as an underwriter 2day so hopefully should be able to bring it down for next year. did they ever catch the little gits by the way?

forget that found wifbits do a transmission cooling kit for the supra anyway, more expensive then buying the parts seperatly but least i know it will fit.

im in the procces of ordering my new alloy rad which im well aware doesnt have the oil cooling inlet and outlet for the transmission cooling. iv been looking at some oil coolers on ebay for it and alot of them are screw fitments. the old screw fitments on the current rad are, well crap, i have a feeling when i undo them they will just die. so im also looking at replacing the tansmission oil hoses with some new ones. my main problems are i dont know the id of the current hose. i think there 8mm, which if they are i have found some decent braided line and also i dont kno what union size i will need so the hose will clam on it tightly. found a shop which sells unions for its oil coolers but i dont think their the correct od for the hose id. any help would be much appriciated.

lucky wots-it though i will double check mine later JUST to be on the safe side

yea mine is a m reg import and i dont think i have that first bit of paper. ill check later. i dont really want to pay out for a new plate if i cant sel mine due to the whole non transfer thing. means ill be stuck with it.

i cant see how you can put fruity into a plate apart from fru17y which would cost a small fortune.
