    More and more reasons to get the Syvecs installed sooner rather than later. Great work - looks awesome.
  2. Big Supes
    They do an awesome metallic red trashcanman. Going to get hold of the colour swatch next week.

    I think consoles (the Xbox certainly) will eventually evolve into being a personal computer that does everything. The days of desktops are limited for home use, if you ask me. Regarding the next gen... I kinda regret jumping on board with the Xbox One. Don't get me wrong, it's nice, but I don't really use it. The games are just a bit meh...

    Oh dear!

    Yeah, the 199 does look great, but it's just so 'ordinary' to me, nowadays. It also doesn't help that this is my second silver Supra. Hmm, did think about gloss black, but it scratches quite easily. I'll get hold of a colour chart and have a looksy.

    Having spent years in the sign game, I'm seriously considering wrapping Supes. I'm bored of the silver and it would be criminal to spray the original paint that has been so well looked after all these years. Spandex are offering new metallic matte finish wrapping vinyls.

    Ahh, ok. My local Mr T would probably order me a set of indicators... effin useless. Saw them for £165 on the Whifbitz site.

    Pretty much achieved all the plans so far. Next on the list: Fit new silicone boost hose set New license plates Spacers/possible stock wheel banding Facelift rear lights 2x8" subs in rear quarters Full body wrap (colour to be confirmed) 6sp conversion (hopefully done by summer)

    Thanks mate. Just wanted to see if they were cheaper than the prices I've seen... and they are.
  10. Big Supes
    Hell, yes! They look immense mate. How much did they set you back?

    Stock intake manifold.
  12. Big Supes
    I'd put it up for £8500 and accept 8k.
  13. Big Supes
    This.
  14. Big Supes
    Absolute minter of a Supra. Love it.

    I've been keeping an eye on Supra prices in the UK ever since I sold my last one ten years ago. They've definitely gone up. 7 or so years ago you could have bought a nice 6sp single for 10k... good luck with that now.
  16. Big Supes
    Correct mate. The main bonus of switching to UK dials is for those who haven't converted over to mph; it's basically plug & play.
  17. Big Supes
    Definitely.
  18. Big Supes
    I'll be up for that. I was thinking we could do 'The Paul Walker Convoy' of our own to Japfest if anyone is up for going. Could plan a route through local towns...

    Idle is/was erratic... with the increased vacuum on the boost gauge I was hoping this was down to another boost leak (prob out of sight, joining onto the SMIC). I did limp it to the nearest garage after the pipe blew off. I'll pull the spark plugs and inspect them... will compression test it whilst I'm there.

    I can vouch that the UK Spec ECU is not limited to 155mph. I know the UK spec ECU differs in other areas though... something to do with the air flow meter, IIRC.
  21. Big Supes
    Quick license plate question... what dimensions do I need for a road legal (square type) rear plate?
  22. Big Supes
    These pics need bumping.
  23. Big Supes
    Looks much better Jake.
  24. Big Supes
    The journey has started with my UK spec, but if it was me, I wouldn't let that go for any less than 10k.
  25. Big Supes
    Yes - this!
