  1. I'm thinking of selling my Supra and would be grateful of people's opinions of what it's worth, 1995 silver N/A auto with the XSpower kit fitted in Jan, mileage was 163k KM and is now 169K km, it has just had the XSpower upgrade manifold fitted (removed the stainless one as they are prone to cracking). At the time of transplant I also fitted new Cambelt, idler and tensioner, Febest crank pulley, aircon deleted with new aux belt, new thermostat, coolant drained and matrix flushed, now blows hot like it should and not luke warm, filled with Toyota red and the engine oil I use is Fuchs Titan 5W40 fully synthetic. It has no leaks whatsoever and doesn't burn oil or use water. The Turbo is the T61 (or 67 I cant remember what I ordered ) and is running an Emanage blue piggy back ecu mapped by Nodalmighty, it has an Innovate LC2 wideband gauge and there is a boost gauge fitted too, it's running 7psi and is fully decatted , BKR7EIX iridium plugs, large FMIC, Mocal 25 row cooler fitted to the transmission and gets straight to the factory limiter no problem. The car has full UK brakes all round, UK rear lights, HKS silent hipower exhaust, hid's, 19" Jade R alloy's (needing refurb), Clifford alarm with remote locking, leather roof lining and black carpet etc, facelift clear front/side indicators. The paintwork isn't great (obviously) and is "flat" on the roof and bonnet but I know this will come back with a mop, there are also some bits that need touching up from where I removed the skirts and they had rubbed and the passenger door mirror needs replacing as it wobble's slightly, the stereo needs upgrading and the speakers are stock and goosed. The XSpower kit was all brand new when fitted. I know picture's will help and I'll get some up when I can, you can get and idea of what it looks like in my garage (without skirts now). Thanks.

    NA Decat

    I've been down this road and would definately recommend the Whifbitz first decat.
  3. Fensport do studs, not saying they're cheap but this is where I buy my repair studs from 01354 696968.
  4. New belt on, reset timing and you're away. Nice plug cover by the way

    Europe

    Well for me the fact that the Tories want us to stay in means that it is probably going to hurt the average man in the street. Yes I know that Labour and the Lib dem's want us to stay in too but still, the Conservatives think its a good thing so I'm OUT.
  6. Have you got decent pads in them, that'll make a huge difference.
  7. 10/11 under boost is fine, mine flickers around too and can be anywhere between 14.5 and 15.5 driving normally
  8. There were 3 supra's there today, (didn't take mine) Neil....asleep in his, Speedyandy and Slink116 (nice colour), was good to see some in Swad other than mine
  9. I assume you were stoned when you decided to start this thread?
  10. BKR7EIX iridiums pre set gap, NOT BKR7EIX-11.
  11. Where abouts in Wales exactly are you? I've done a few of these and will be in Pwllheli next weekend....
  12. Cash converters usually have a few in.....cheap too.
  13. I fitted one of these in Feb when I went N/A-T.
  14. I installed an XS power kit a few months ago and with my only real issue being a miss on tickover (turned out to be too small a plug gap) I would recommed it, its so much faster than the N/A....and my 1JZ....and a TT apparently . I have had to replace the oil feed line as it went brittle with the heat and I leant on it and it snapped . If you do go with XS power then you must go for the upgraded manifold as it gives better clearance for the oil return and the 4runner cap you will have to use. Oh and it only takes around 4 or 5 days to arrive from China/America.
  15. I have now fitted BKR7EIX Iridium plugs pre gapped at 70thou (not BKR7EIX-11) and the miss has gone, ticks over lovely now but it seems to be blowing from the manifold area which is going to take some investigation as it is heat wrapped, my advice to anyone buying this kit is to make sure you get the upgrade manifold which gives better clearance of the distributor, oil return and the intercooler pipe fitting.
