  1. Been gone since 2014, Time to bump this one again? 3 months is too long.
  2. Interested in the horn Slipring, Please see my wanted post. http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?342566-Slipring-Horn-Contact-84315-14090 I'm pretty sure i can get the airbag one to work on a non airbag model
  3. Hello all, I need this part to pas TUV (German MOT) because my horn stopped working. I cannot for the life of me find a new part anywhere, any help would be appreciated. I can pay via paypal delivered to Kaiserslautern Germany 67655 please. If anyone is in the area I will be in Cambridge from Thursday afternoon till Monday morning, I can pay you cash and give you some gas money as well. My Supra is a 94 J Spec without Airbags please see the image below Thanks.
  4. 8 years 104 pages 1559 posts this thread will never die.
  5. Had this same thing happen on my skyline, No power or boost but no oil or anything! Turned out the ceramic turbine wheel lost all of it's fins! Shaft turned fine from the compressor side so I must have disassembled and reassembled the Intercooler system and all pipes like 5 times. Finally started the car to move it with the intake off and saw the turbo wasn't spinning.
  6. LS 400 fronts are amazing, Did not know that the rears fit too! next upgrade for me
  7. My D light is out as well I thought it was one that requires cutting out and resoldering?
  8. all I need now is some Mashimoto zx tires. Should I post a WTB thread? Also I'd like some SR20s but they seem to fetching a premium. Is it right before race day?
  9. What you really want is the MOTEC system exhaust.
  10. yep had to get EU spec lights for my girlfriend's jspec to pass TUV (german mot) 530 euro from mr t. there are no lines in front of the lights on the supra, you can simply have the angle adjusted and see if it passes. if not they are worth quite a bit to the US buyers as they only ever had plastic ones.
  11. faulty speedo converter won't throw a code. drove my supra all the way to Germany from bristol with a defective converter and no warning lights. its either a sensor somewhere or it's serious (read expensive)
  12. You are near SRD, Pay lee to look at it before you buy, At that point you will really know if you need to walk away or how much the seller needs to come down in price. Even better you will be where you want to be to get it right.
  13. if you have a manual car then 5th or 6th gear with the hand brake on and wheel chocks is fine. If you have an auto it's a right PITA I used the crank puller with an extension braced against the floor. I was really worried about snaping the bolts but they held
  14. If the power is too far above stock the can fine the hell out of you in DK When I was on the Skyline Forum we had a DK member create some type of electronic device that would hold his wastegates full open for a check with a hidden switch. His R33 was running 650ish BHP but made 290 for the official test.
  15. Bought an IS200 boot and fuel release are identical to a supra, This thread can help with so may other cars that we just can't let it die!
  16. Would you like to join the SRD Team!! Hell Yeah:D Would you like to build 1000hp dream machines!! Does Zeus shit Thunderbolts? You would need to have the following skills: Fabrication, Tig and mig welding. Not to save my Life Mechanical competency and spanner time. Lots of spanner time, but problably due to my lack mechanical competancy. Attention to detail and patients. Like a monkey on speed with ADD:looney: so no Lots of passion and imagination. Yes, but I come up with some wild S***T A love and respect for fast cars. Oh yeah If this is you then please give me a shout, preferably if your near to our area but if you want to live in the workshop that will be fine Damm live in Germany 4 out of 7 is better than 50% I problably shouldn't start packing:hide: all jokes aside, while I am a fair mechanic the Craftsmanship I see in Kim's car makes me seem like a retarded child at NASA. I think it wil be difficult to find someone to meet your standards but if he's half as good as you the results will be epic- good Luck on the search Lee!
  17. I got an apexi ats in my full obx exhaust system(OBX Headers, 3 inch second decat and 3 inch cat back. it's expensive and looks strange but its the best of both worlds really. Reletively quiet around town and cruising, free flowing and LOUD when you put your foot down.
  18. pull the shifter and fill from the top. no idea how to check the level with the bolt stuck however
  19. tt head on the na block? 2jz no shit! had to pop the hood to make sure because supras came from the factory with so many different engines!
  20. How did I miss that one? pm me if you put another tt up at that price!
  21. search button does lead to epic necros!

    I put tt alternators on both my NAs becuase Germany only had tt supras. can confirm that there is no issues with the belts whatsoever.
  23. You are driving it wrong If i am less than 100kmh i pull the lever back to 2 and switch od off, 2nd gear is good to 120kph so at 115 push it into D. 3rd gear is good to 186 or so kph so at 180 push the od button. 4th gear would get you to 270 if you had the power, I've only ever got to 245 on the gps, my speedo is wrapped back around to almost 0 at this point.

    Hey guys, I'm Jack
