Interested, would you ship to the Netherlands, or be willing to pack it for courier pickup?
-
For the prefacelift, they are slightly different, I found I had to grind a little off the sides of the lens to make them fit, but nothing major.

Wish all dragonballers a fun and safe trip, see you tommorow! -
Can imagine you feel gutted after all the bad luck you had, hope and wish you a nice birthday and the energy to continu this build, once done you are bound to have a great time driving it!
-
There is a topic on the US forum about this, and saw something simular on a dutch build..
-

Possible groupbuy interest thread; OEM black carpet.
Jos replied to Callaway Motorsport's topic in Supra Chat
Also interested depending on price! -
If there is another batch, I'll take one too please!

They do fit nice in a mkiv, with some modification. They have a little less support than mkiv seats, but are also lighter. I removed the original brackets of the celica seats and welded mkiv seat brackets under the rails for an easy fitment.

On jspec (and I think uk spec is not much different?) I find it easier to remove the turbos as set from the turbo manifold, I use a spanner with one side cut off so I can slide a pipe over it to remove the lower bolts. Easier when the exhaust valve is removed, can be done though with it in place. I believe I also removed the right subframe bracket (from the alu to steel subframe), to get more workspace below the turbos.
-
As far as I know they will only operate under load, so not in neutral? howmuch boost are you seeing and is there a noticable transition at 3700-4000 rpm?
-
As others have said, for me it's not just the car, but the people you meet because of the supra.

2jz has a 1,1bar cap, I would start there first.
-
Will do that this weekend, but have been pretty busy with work this week, I need some time to dig them out of the attic and make some decent photos of them:D
-
Sorry to hear about your boost problems, I've had a couple myself and for fault finding I myself found it easier to connect a compressor or something else with 1,1 bar to the feed of the vacuum lines. That way you can at least test the sequential valves and solenoids with a 12V source and see how and if they work and if there is a leak in those lines. Hope this makes any sense and helps. For understanding the system, I find the faq here very helpfull, or http://www.max-boost.co.uk/max-boost/supra/boosting_the_beast.htm Btw, what happens in TTC?
-
Welcome, another Supra on the mainland!, she looks great, maybe see you one time at one of the Dutch meets?
-
I have the same one, is a nice unit indeed, I bought the 52 mm gauge which fits in the dash clock space after making the hole a little bit bigger. And via USB you have the option what the screen displays, afr or boost, also has a warning function which can be programmed.

JAE 2014 - interest thread! Please Read Carefully!
Jos replied to wile e coyote's topic in National Events
Noticed I was still on the list as Jos +1, but I will be alone, hence why I only bought 1 f/d ticket. -
That's a pity, but thank you for sharing your efforts, may have to search for another option then. Edit, don't know if it's an option to send a Toyota cartridge to them? I have multiple failed cartridges, so could spare one:D
-
Did you have any luck with these?
-
Ordered my food ticket, hope I can take the supra with me as she's still undergoing surgery, but am looking foreward to this, with or without suup. On the plus side, if I come without supra I can take more wood for the campfire:D

Dragonball Part 2 - Return to Rouen 19th, 20th and 21st Sept 2014
Jos replied to Fitz's topic in Supra Chat
Sorry for my lack off input, have been busy with vacation and various other occupations:blush:, some of these are still ongoing and I am not 100% sure I can make dragonball in september, but I would not have a problem paying a contribution for already made costs. But if I could make it, howmuch would hotel costs be without tickets for the channel?, as I won't be needing those. -
Dragonball Part 2 - Return to Rouen 19th, 20th and 21st Sept 2014
Jos replied to Fitz's topic in Supra Chat
Yes I'm still in too:cool: -
It could be a worn throttle body?, you could check by opening the throttle valve by hand and see if you can move the shaft in and out of the throttle body. If there is excessive play it will allow to much air in I think, had a similar problem on a supra a few months back, changed the throttle body and that fixed it.
