lol Manwithsupra.. Perhaps one day.. Thanks for the concern pedrosixfour but all seems well so far, its is over a mm gap.. Just but I'v tried some hard cornering and all seems well. Only thing is with the 5mm spacing the rear arches do rub on the tyres on big bumps so we will be rolling the arches slightly Monday. Thanks Mr Mitchell, I'll ignore the 2nd part of that comment But after months of looking these are the only wheels I felt were best suit the car to be honest... I could have for wheels that were £1k+ without tyres, but each to there own.. And these BK's that are now a year old still look suburb with no steering wheel shake and are in true I'm glad you liked the thread And appreciate the great comments as always gang P.S Currently in the making of my little dash mod, which I'm enjoying doing Will be up next week

Yer sure mate. Pop over and have a look next time

Great work fella!

lol Its surprising how small the J-Specs are when you compare them to the modern car thats 350BHP out the factory, they will also come with some crazy brake set up.. Thanks Abz. The pictures don't do the colour justice. When you see in it in person with the sun on it its really does show nicely.

Hay all. Thanks for the polite comments. The blue which is Bayside Blue always gets commented on, it really is a great colour.. Haven't properly tested them as I'm letting the brakes bed in. But for what I have felt there pretty powerful, and I know what you mean nige it does give an aggressive look "If he has spent the money on the brakes, it must be spent under the hood" and in this case it is correct, as next week I will be a cheeky 600BHP I will try and make a similar thread when fitting the turbo and custom dash display .. Makes it a little more fun for you lot

Thanks chris. The work is done now. We used the original Banjos

Hay all ok. Spent the day today fitting my Brembo brakes I bought from Jamie P. We also fitted 5mm spacers with new Studs. While we were at at it I thought we may well replace the hand brake shoes as the disks are off. So a load of pics for you pic lovers: Arrived at my mates garage AKS Tuning (Only 2 minute drive from home) http://img10.imageshack.us/img10/5930/20120814092433.jpg Before the work I took some shots of what the old brakes were like: http://img715.imageshack.us/img715/5115/20120814092446.jpg http://img217.imageshack.us/img217/1666/20120814092454.jpg http://img268.imageshack.us/img268/3760/20120814092507.jpg H&R 5mm Spacers with longer studs and some new Brembo pins: http://img685.imageshack.us/img685/9590/20120814093032.jpg Ok while Alex was answering all the calls under the sun and tidying up I was left with the 1st job.

I did alot of driving today to get to SRD to pick up some new goodis for my Supra that came off JamieP's car. Will be fitting all this over the next week and by the end of next week I should be all mapped and 600BHP better off The Turbo is brand new and Lee kindly got the Turbo polished quick enough to be ready for when I came to pick it up:) http://img254.imageshack.us/img254/6526/20120812181459.jpg http://img818.imageshack.us/img818/2616/20120812181537.jpg http://img802.imageshack.us/img802/1453/20120812183242.jpg http://img138.imageshack.us/img138/4892/20120812183313.jpg http://img534.imageshack.us/img534/9075/20120812184414.jpg http://img826.imageshack.us/img826/6543/20120812184424.jpg

I just bought a PT 6766. They spool nice apparently and support up to 950

Told ya it was good Fast car does ALOT more than that. Performance read out via graphs, different channel settings, boost read outs, speed read outs, tacho read outs etc.. As Pm'ed mate I have a Walbro one up for grabs soon

Plus side I got some awesome bits off it Roll on the big brakes, Dash 2 and single turbo!!

lol!!!

The black and chrome works well together

Well worst case. wet and dry them again. You sure lacquer will be ok on headlights? Bulbs can get pretty hot. It could be the chemicals used to polish the headlights that made the lacquer separate?

Check out RPS mate. Very happy with mine
