  1. Lots of people on here use Paisley freight .....myself included, no problems.
  2. Ha ha, Well I guess my quest for Mo Farah is looking more and more like NA/T (the Whifbitz one being tried and tested).......lot of saving up for me that though Thanks for your input people.
  3. I have been thinking about this for a while now but I haven't got a clue what work is entailed to fit, if it is worth it (performance wise), cost and ultimately .....will it damage the engine ? Any info would be appreciated
  4. I ended up splitting mine while I had the manifold off.
  5. They are there for an oil cooler (feed and return pipes), mine too was leaking from the oil filter housing to block .....there is an O ring in there like with the oil filter that can perish ....I also took those Allen bolts out and put some threadlock on them just to be sure....all is fine now.
  6. My standard ones were knocking like crazy (knackered) on the front, bought some yellow Bilsteins and they're brill
  7. I remember coming back to where I had parked one evening whilst out shooting and from a distance I could see some activity around my car so I switched on my Logun Lamp and illuminated them to which they jumped in their cars and shot off quickly..... I found a house brick on my drivers seat from the drivers window they had put through, brick dents in the bonnet and chips and brick dust on the windscreen which they had also tried to smash..........It was only after seeing the damage that I wished that I'd have shot at them .....and that was only an Astra ........I would be crying dude ....And a sore arse too.......I really feel for you buddy.
  8. I thought you were supposed to leave the needles on and slide the face over them ......but I may be wrong.
  9. Just an observation and I'm nowhere near Scotland .....(or have a TT for that matter)......but why has it taken you so long to request a trip out in a soop? I notice you joined the club in 2007
  10. They may be patten parts I'm not sure but they are identical to the ones cut out of my arms......can't attach a link (cos I'm thick) but here is the item number 261426195634.
  11. You can buy the OEM rear upper bushes on ebay that you will need to have pressed into your arms, I however went with the super pro poly bush and I can't fault them.
  12. Have just replaced my discs and pads today as they looked like your's but it was in no way a caliper problem, sliders and pistons all in perfect working order, the pads were wearing away more on the rust band than on the actual bit of disc that they were in contact with as they should be .....been like that for a while and worked ok but looked wrong. pads were correct size too.
  13. Thanks guy's, didn't think it was likely that the springs would "soften"...... will replace the shocks .
  14. I guess I'll be there as its only 20 mins away

    Engine upgrade

    2-2.5k I think ....
  16. Is this a Supra only event or just Supra's allowed on the track?
  17. Too many people think that the oil MUST be up to the top mark but the truth is as long as it is between the top and bottom marks it is fine .........but do not let it drop below min.
  18. I have an N/A and am a Pod virgin but I'm going down that track and will go up against every mother f*****g last one of ya
  19. Girlfriends Lucida is hitting the bump stops on the rear without much weight in it, now her last Lucida did this now and again but only when fully loaded with luggage and people. I am wondering where to start....it has dampers with seperate springs on the rear but can the springs wear out/become soft ? Could the dampers be at fault ? Any help/info on soft suspension would be greatly appreciated Thanks.
  20. When I bought my Toyota red coolant I could choose between "ready mixed" and "neat".
  21. Cured.......number 10 fuse in drivers side footwell behind kick panel 15amp.
  22. I have just done this and have the same symptoms .....I presume it was the fuses then?
  23. Thanks thomo, looks like its prob something else then .....or a number of fuses
