  1. Thanks Paul. You changed to coil pack clips in 2008, so wasn't going to be them. I will get some supersparks once I get some money. I could probably make most of the money back by selling the good originals to pay for the supersparks anyway. Yeah, I refurbed all of them yesterday as I thought it could be them. Unfortunatly it didnt make any difference.
  2. Hello, I'm after a coilpack for a j-spec tt. Thanks
  3. Changed the spark plugs, Refurbed the metal coilpack clips and the plastic part of the coilpack was changed a few years ago. But still its missing on high boost. Must be a coilpack surely? Or is there something else it can be?
  4. I think it's had it to be honest. I'll have to try and get another one the same style and size to match up with the pipes if possible. EDIT: My intercooler looks like this one... IF it is this one they're a hell of a lot of money, so if I can get mine refurbed at a fair price I should get it done really?
  5. I'm not 100% sure mate, but I'll take it anyway cheers. How much do you want posted? and how do you want paying?
  6. Hello, Had a look at my intercooler and the fins looks quite corroded! and I dont think its helping the temperature my car gets. I was wondering is there such a place that will refurbish intercoolers? Its quite a large front mount and seems a shame to waste it, its about 2.5 - 3inches thick and quite tall.
  7. Not too sure. I think its auto and manual that have different alternaters. Can you get a picture easy? Or would it be easier for me to send a photo? Thanks
  8. Hello, I'm after the plug that goes to the alternater as mine has corroded the wires and is playing up. I need just the plug from the wiring loom plus as much wire as possible. Hopefully somebody will have an old wiring loom lying about they can cut the plug off for me... Thanks
  9. Lol, thanks alot mate. The bumper lasted about 2 months then my old man reversed into it in his 4x4! lol
  10. ah, I see. I know it probably seemed like a daft question, but the only experiance I've had with aftermarket bumpers is when I was 17 and bought a fibreglass front bumper for my mk3 fiesta 1.1 and litterally, it was just a bare shell and had no bolt holes or anything for fitment, so I didnt have a clue where to start. In the end I cut the sides off the original bumper and put the aftermarket bumper around it the middle part and filled it with expanding foam. lol. The fit was perfect after that! Anyway, thanks alot for your help guys, at least I have a small idea of what's involved now. Thinking about the rmm lip without ears for now and later on in life if I decide to, try a do luck front bumper?
  11. Haven't got one yet. Just trying to decide what to do. Do the bumpers pretty much bolt on like the standard bumper or do you have to make brackets or what ever?
  12. I'm refurbing a set of j-specs at the moment and going to make the rings chrome and black inside. Yea I agree with the rmm, just searched for it and found jevansio's car with that splitter and it looks very nice. It's quite likely I may go with that, but I'd still like to know about fitting the do luck incase I change my mind or for future reference?
  13. Hello, I'm looking to update the look of my supra... Clickable link^ I was first thinking repair splitter and spray that, bumper and bonnet black. Now I have been thinking about a Do luck front bumper, but my question is... How do you fit it? I'm guessing there isn't any bolts holes or anything? Can someone explain what there like? So that I know whether I can do it myself or not. How much would a garage charge to fit it? Would they JUST fit it, without spraying it? EDIT: The eyebrows have long gone before anyone slates them!
  14. Ah Brilliant. Didn't realise that was a common fault. I will check them all tomorrow and see how I get on. Thanks alot for the help guys!
  15. Hello, went for a quick trip to Tesco's today, all was fine until. On the way home I pressed the loud pedal and it seemed like when the 2nd Turbo should of kicked in it started to miss and be down on power, that was in 3rd gear. I tried it again in 2nd Gear and it seemed fine. Tried in 3rd again and it missed again. When it first did it, it felt like the 2nd turbo didnt come in, but after the second time I realised it was missing because the engine note changed and sounded juddery (if that makes sense? lol). Am I right in thinking its a coilpack gone? it wouldn't be a spark plug if its not always missing right? Thanks in advance
  16. Have to catch up at another meet mate, do you go to the Local meets?
  17. Saw your car driving in Raven (Looks nice!), but couldn't find you when I wondered round. I think I saw Mitchels car with a load of mr2's, (looking Shiney!) but didnt know where you were to have a chat, as there was so many people hovering around it looking like they owned it. Lol
  18. Is it 16v or 8? I've got a 1998 1.6 16v astra as the daily dog and its been the best car I've ever had. Owned it for 3 years now and only problem was a seized caliper. Not bad for a car with 174000 miles on the clock, serviced when I can be bothered.
  19. Thanks I'll try them as the microsoft one looks a bit involved for me...
  20. Hello, I used to use frontpage express to build my website and publish it to angelfire. Just recently I've been having problems as they've updated there site and for some reason it wont let me publish anymore. I kept asking them for help and all they suggested was that frontpage express was old now and that I should get a newer program like microsoft web expressions pro. So I did. The problem is, I'm a numpty! I haven't got a clue about html code and thats pretty much how your supposed to edit in web expressions as far as I can tell. Question is does anyone know of a decent program that I can build a decent website like frontpage express and I can publish ftp? Thanks
  21. Could there be a facelift version ^ and a non facelift version? Because I have the exact same set up as the bellow picture. http://img87.imageshack.us/img87/9104/img3779u.jpg
  22. lol. I think there the same as mine. Do they fit well? Mine are really tight against the seat belt clip. And where the seat clips into its really far down the side of the seat...? Just wondered if my runners are wrong?
