  1. I got two Supra jumpers and a Supra wallet. Good work, mk4gaz! Looks great so far.
  2. Yeah, it seems to be getting up to temp, but to be honest, I don't really have a lot of faith in the stock water temp gauge. Maybe I'll pop the thermostat out and check it. Will get a new rad cap on order...
  3. No harm in ruling it out. I could throttle whoever didn't tighten up the top hose in the first place.
  4. I've been running it for a while hoping it would self-bleed, but every now 'n then I hear the radiator bubbling after shutting down the engine. I'll have another look over the coolant hoses to make sure there aren't any splits. Regarding the temp gauge, are they reliable? The gauge on the 200sx was nothing more than a indicator (on all cars) to tell you when the water was up to running temp. It would only move slightly above half way when the engine was nearing melting point. Since then, I've never trusted them. That did cross my mind. I was thinking about jacking it up and pushing my ramps underneath. I was just wondering if there was a technique... I remember on the Celica you would clamp the top pipe, get it up to temp, then release it and all the air would come bubbling out. Does anyone know if anyone supplies a silicone top hose with an in-line bleed nipple??
  5. Does anyone have any tips for bleeding the coolant system? Had a brief search, but couldn't find any threads... Having a bit of a mare getting the last of the air out.
  6. Supes has been spoiled this Christmas. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/121120088118?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649 http://www.garagewhifbitz.co.uk/index.php/garage-whifbitz-1723.html http://www.garagewhifbitz.co.uk/index.php/toyota/supra/bpu-performance-packs/garage-whifbitz-848.html http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00BJ0VGX0/ref=oh_details_o03_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B007YZINXA/ref=oh_details_o02_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Also bought a Kicker amp & 10" sub and a load of cleaning products.
  7. Excited for ya mate. It's going to be an epic day. I'll drop you a text if I'm about Monday... might be working nights.
  8. Defo mate. When are you picking it up? Will be good to catch up for a beer.
  9. Blazingsmoke suits me. Edit: forget my list... I see I've already been added. Looking forward to seeing the finished product Parry. Think you're going to be grinning from ear to ear when I see you.
  10. If he wants to sell the plate, I'd be interested.
  11. 75 shot of Nitrous. Forget about the rest, IMO.
  12. My BF4 is still in its wrapper. Haven't had time to play it.
  13. If you wanted to get a quote dude, I'm looking to go 6sp early next year.
  14. I'd be interested in a group buy....
  15. Try getting someone to follow you to see if there is any black smoke prior to the surge of power. Still thinking it's your turbos dude, specifically your second stage tubby. Check for vac leaks, for sure and it wouldn't hurt to pop the pipes off and manually check the turbos end-float.
  16. Super Pursuit mode KITT!! That rear end could definitely do with the reverse into a wall at 50mph mod.
  17. So chuffed theyv'e nailed the SFX of the single turbo Supra in Forza 5.... not only have they nailed it, it sounds identical to Jamie P's old Black Beast.
  18. ICE install, lower, BPU and 6sp conversion by spring. .... oh, and sell kidney.
  19. Road closed.....looks like we're heading straight to Bluewater.
