    OMG Ellis died

    If you're going to Herm I can jump on the ferry and meet you in the Mermaid and buy you a pint for your birthday, no probs. Sea's pretty choppy at the moment but meant to be ok by the weekend .
  3. Welcome back to the supra fold Alex. It seems the love is well and truly back
  4. So on the back of a thread where Tim of TB Developments offered the OP a good deal on a set of BC coilovers I contacted him and true to his word he offered me an excellent deal on a set. I picked them up from the Post Office this morning, within a week of ordering, great service. Thanks for a great deal and great service Tim.
  5. A big thanks to Tim for a great deal on a set of BC coilovers. Great deal and great service mate, cheers. Highly recommended to anyone thinking of getting a set.
  6. Could always use someone from the local Romany populous, oh, hold on
  7. Plenty of immigrants to do the job for you at below minimum wage Chris. Sometimes things just work out good that way, .
  8. Not a bad colour for an aero I suppose Looking lovely mate.
  9. Looking great mate. Well done. Good selection on the up-grades, it's going to be one very nice Supra when you've finished it.
  10. They're not called 'faf' for no reason, they make the running costs and garage time spent on a Supra look like a reliable family saloon. My son runs one, it is an incredible car and looks great but he is ALWAYS doing something to it and it ALWAYS costs him big bucks and he's a mechanic so does not have the expense of labour on top (not the easiest of car to work on). So if you are serious about one be prepared for empty pockets and no TT6.
  11. Agreed. Without open cockpit F1 is a no go. Total overreaction imo. Motorsport is dangerous at EVERY level for drivers and spectators, so where do we stop? At every level people die racing cars and bikes for all and F1's record in the last 20 years holds up VERY well. So let's ban it all and no one dies, easy. Never could stand RWUB anyway, such a boring day out.
  12. Good to see you've sorted it. Make sure, as Chris says, to get good quality parts and torque them properly, saves a world of grief, as you've just found out.
  13. Cheers Alex that was helpfull, looking for something with a bit more. GLWS though mate.
  14. How quiet is it Alex, is it about the same as OEM?
  15. Welcome back Alex. Glad to see you will be putting the VA wheels back on as imo the wheels on it at the moment don't suit it, looked so much meaner before. Get out and have a blast through some of those great roads you have up there and get the love back Good luck with the plans.
  16. You're welcome, good luck. I'd give you a hand but I'm a bit far away.
  17. Hammer an appropriate sized (very slightly bigger than the opening) builders cold chisel into the opening and then use a largish set of Stilsons to undo. Done it that way a few times for people, works every time and cheap, especially if you have the tools or can borrow the tools off of someone.
  18. Have always loved Supras. Looked into getting one when life and finance made sense. Decided it would have to be special, so aero - facelift. Whilst buying an FTO, many years before, the dealer had a DJG Supra in and I loved the colour on a Supra, so it also had to be that colour. Took 6 years to find but SO worth the wait. Good luck, go for what you want, that way you will be happy, IMO. Meant to say, I wanted a TT but after 6 years of waiting and knowing how rare TT aeros are, couldn't be THAT fussy as it was pretty obvious I was lucky to get what I wanted in such unspoilt condition.
  19. Shame you've sold up but hope you stick around, always liked your posts, informative and interesting. Think you may regret selling such a rarity.
  20. Great up-dates. Supra is looking great, like the stance and a great video. Nice sound now, what exhaust is that you have fitted if you don't mine me asking?
  21. 3 awesome looking Supras guys. Well done, each one is a credit to you and the hard work and money you have committed to them. Some really good photo shots too, well done.
  22. Hope you get this sorted in time Alex, I know you love getting to the meets.
  23. Great car at a great price, what an excellent buy. Well done, hope you enjoy it. Loved following the build threads on this.
