I need the left side rear wheel hub. I dont know if there is a difference between j spec and UK spec. My car is a EUR spec, same as UK but steering wheel on the other side:) Anyone?? Thanks Cuba

Thanks Nic, Actually I found out today that I dont need the lower arm. All I need now is the wing and the steering knuckle (not a steering rack as I wrote initally) Thanks

bump!

Hi, I am looking for front left wing. Best in red colour but any colour will do. I also need front left side lower control arm and steering rack. thanks Cuba

Thanks, but I really need only one, left side door. Anyone?

Hi, I am looking for passenger side doors plus the two hinges. Cuba

I m selling a brand new IC at the moment. I didnt get it off ebay but people say that its very simmilar. Anyway, the piping is not a problem. I can get a shop to custom made piping for any IC's and stock twins. I heard that, blitz out sources their cores somewhere else, so this may be something worth looking at. Cuba

Still having the same problem. Slight oil leak for diif. What do you guys suggest, I dont think its too much of a problem but I m in the process of checking the car over and this has come up again. What are your views? Cuba

Synn, PM sent!

I ve got one on sale now:) http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?t=35140 Cuba

Ok, so the car is in the performance garage having the IC fitted and the pipes made. The main mechanic said that the IC was really nice. They are a bit lazy so it ll take them a while and with easter coming I dont think I will have the car back soon. Anyway. I have just recieved another intercooler. I originally ordered it for my other project but I dont need it so will be selling it. Watch the FOR SALE section soon. Regards, Cuba

yeah, 5 year old tyres aren't very good. If you run 5 yr tyres, I d say you'd be better of with ANY OTHER (younger) tyres. Cuba

Another example:

It is very easy to tell exactly how old the tyre is. On the side wall there is usually a lot of numbers. There should be a rectangle in which there are a few numbers, those last three numbers show the age of the tyre. If the last three numbers are : 423 it means that the tyre was made in the 42nd week of the year 2003. it may also look like in the pic: 0100 it means the tyre was made in the first week of 2000. regards, Cuba

Sure thing James, I ll let you know as soon as I have fitted it, just having the tubing made at the moment. Hope to be able to report something end of next week with some nice pictures of the IC installed. Regards

cheers alex!

Thanks Nic, Professional advice always welcome. I know its hard to tell but I can see some numbers on it. I figured out that its: A/R .70 I think it may be turbonetics M24 turbo (think its like t04e) looks like it has its own wastegate Any more guys?? Cuba

Can anyone tell me what turbo is this, just from the pic?? thanks Cuba

So, Aluminium or stainless steel. I think I will want it in alu as its lighter. Hey Peter, I am still around. I was a bit busy in the winter months but I m waking up form the winter sleep. The supe has been in the garage since November, so I cant wait to put things together and get her on the road. Cuba

I m having the piping made for the FMIC. What steel should I use? I heard that mild steel is better then the SS, any comments? Which one would you go for? Cuba

I dont know where the ebay guys (ssautochrome) get their IC's but I know it is a great quality. I will have another one coming over in about a week time. I ll let you know when I have it. Cuba

The pic of the FMIC. I ll try to take a pic of it on the car.

Hi Guys, It's been a while since I posted here last. I have a contact with a factory that produces most intercooler cores for the big names in the industry (HKS, Blitz, Hybrid etc). I am currently testing one of their intercoolers on my car and if everything goes well in the testing phase I may be able to arrange a group buy for them if you'd be interested. The intercooler is very well made. Dimensions on the one i'm testing are 600x300x76 but they could also do 4" thick ones. The 4" is the same spec as Greddy 3 row IC. I ll post some pictures of the IC later . The price would be very interesting. Nothing had been settled yet, but I think it would be in the range of 350 quid. Like I said I am still testing it and will let you know how things go. Cuba

thanks for all the answers. Its all clear now. Cuba

Well, I m asking cause I just noticed yesterday when I had the car up, that there is a little kind of intercooler on a left side of the car, and the flow of the air is directed onto the brake disc ( left side). I checked the right side, and it seems similar in that way, that the air from the SMIC is directed onto the right disc. So... I assumed that Toyota just did a bit of a short cut and since they had a SMIC on the right they didnt put the little brake cooler, like the one that sits on the left hand side. So, analogically, If its there, it must be there for a reason, otherwise there wouldnt be a little cooling thingy on the left side. Cuba
