  1. Good info Think I'll go with it for my UK twins when I eventually get round to getting it fitted. I know they can go to 1.4 but I'd rather play safe and see what 1.2 is like.
  2. I would be interested to know the settings for this too. Quite a popular ebc, so I'd be surprised if nobody knew what settings to use.
  3. Great job. Good to see such a nice car getting looked after.
  4. I would be interested in your fobs if you are getting rid of them

    alright guys

    Hi, Welcome to the forum, are you a paid member yet?, if so you can look for a brake light in the for sale section; http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/forumdisplay.php?10-Parts-for-Sale Also, you might be interested in a monthly meet close to you that has quite a few new members attending the next one, so it wouldn't just be you that's new. You should bring your Supra along and say hi. http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?265771-Glasgow-Monthly-Meet/page65 P.s Just a heads up, text speak is avoided if possible on the forum
  6. Looks great Gordy. Nice clean low mile example +1 for putting the stock air box back. You must be buzzing, congrats
  7. Great stuff, looks like it will be august before I'll be about so hopefully still make it.
  8. Nothing that would put me off there, sunny I will be able to source tents for this (free) if we need them. One I've been offered fits an easy 8 with 12 at a squeeze but can get more tents if needed.
  9. Geometry setup from a garage that knows what they are doing. Shouldn't break 20% of your £1k And then a CW SMIC
  10. This sounds excellent, good effort Sunny. As I've said, new baby on the immediate horizon means I can't commit to much but I'll do my absolute best to make this as I wouldn't want to miss out. I've stayed in a place called kilterglen in Portree the one time I went. They did us a deal for 2 nights- it's usually booked up quite solid in the summer up that way- makes you realise we actually have a healthy tourist industry- but it has a car park and is a 10 min walk from Portree square. It's individual lodges but i'd be up for sleeping bag on the floor to save cash if it came to it. You can only rule it out. Cheers Greeny
  11. Brilliant Is that the emic I've heard stories about, think you've settled it!
  12. See the test is flawed, as results are all dependant on the condition of your 20+ year old stock teeth. New CW teeth with ducting would prob be good enough upto 650 bhp, after that you would be back to having to use the sensodyne. But for bpu, you should be fine.
  13. Have you got intake temps for your teeth before and after you had ducted lips?
  14. Amazing You do realise this is a supra enthusiasts forum right?..
  15. No probs Gordy. Have you found a car then? In the meantime here is a look at the CW SMIC http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?304090-CW-SMIC-upgrade
  16. This guys on the wind up. OP, I currently have a nice new CW SMIC fitted if you want a poke about at the next meet.
  17. Smic is positioned in it's own side pod duct that was designed in a wind tunnel. It creates a pocket of air in front of it that collects and is then forced through the core at pressure, at the rear of the smic is the front wheel, which, at speed creates an area of low pressure through what's known as the Venturi principle, effectively creating a suction effect, helping with airflow through the actual intercooler. Pretty clever stuff eh? I think I'd rather use the stock ducting and positioning of the intercooler for this reason, unless I was forced into not being able to use it through performance requirements, ie it couldn't handle the cooling after a certain horsepower figure any longer. You have to ask if the upgrade to a front mount has equal or better ducting than what is being replaced in order for it to be an upgrade.
  18. Are you thinking of that guy that moved to Canada? Can't remember his name either After hearing about the guy who just got a job working in the Williams F1 team, that's the coolest job I've heard anyone say they have on the forum
  19. I went to my first meet myself and just introduced myself, being Asian won't change anyone's attitude towards you Rockstar North, that would be a cool place to work! Are you a programmer?
  20. Welcome shammy, hope you go for a Supra and take your time to get the one you want. Hopefully see you at a meet some time, we are pretty friendly so feel free to pop along to the next one. Sunny, UK specs are rust buckets mate, you wouldn't like them
  21. Lol, I think you're too much of a purest to really want to go that route. Just stay away from UK specs please
  22. How embarrassing, offering a guy a lift to see what it's like and you don't even have a big single in your collection.....
