  1. Neil have you ever run your NA on drag radials? I've had mine out for a play and found they definitely bogged down. Though I was running a stock clutch and didn't try and beat the hell out of it. Maybe it's worth trying some before you buy your own.
  2. Neil the simple fact neil you have spent time, money and effort with your car and took it to the strip and had traction issues, means the car is fully worth spending money to improve traction. If it wasn't worth it in your eyes, you wouldnt spend money on it. Us NA guys buy the NA cuz we love the supra and can't initally afford to run the TT's. If your having traction then clearly improving it will give you a better time. Hammers the w58 on 300bhp or less I think it will hold out pretty well. Speak to jekyl about how well his held out at 380bhp and he wasn't afraid to abuse it. The NA is a nippy motor. just because it isn't the faster model, does not mean its not worthey of your pennies. Get the radials, and improve your time!
  3. BUT.. at least their car range is limited. Scoobies are SOOOO expensive to drive they seem to be getting uncommon for young people to drive.
  4. I noticed when I was getting quotes for different NA's, the prices were different. Weird really, they were all 94-96 manual imports, prices varied around £200! Always thought that odd. Is it true UK TT's are cheaper than import NA's? I bought my NA for cheap insurance thought since adding bits its more than a stock TT but still!! NA vs UK eh?

    Hello

    The clutch will only be a problem if you change the engine or run boost on your Na engine. You should be fine for many miles, even a stock clutch can take a good hammering from the NA engine. Mine had 12 months of hard driving before I swapped it for an uprated one.
  6. Can't you just bubble wrap the lot, sandwich them so each one is protected and put them in a bit box. Can't be that hard to wrap them up Would do it at a cost, I'm sure they would sell.
  7. I reckon 300-400 with MOT and tax. The condition looks fair, but need to take into account service history and engine condition. Plus OAP's tend to go through clutchs like biscuits. That would be an ace first car.
  8. Ah the bumper strip, yes you did say you had to have a look for it. Are you coming to the plymouth cruise? Few Supra's are going along should be good. When I get paid end of month I'll have that strip no worries. Where abouts do you live.
  9. I've just texted my friend, she does alot of car boot stuff, mainly girly stuff but I've let her know as she might be interested.
  10. Nice little motor. At least you have something nice to bring to the meets
  11. Who is up for this? Anymore takers? Will be starting from barnstaple and going through various locations along the way to pick up different cars. Will post details of locations later tonight.
  12. Ace wheels. Think they are going to look very tasty indeed.
  13. I don't think I'd ever use the scramble setting. If its not mapped it, it's going to stress the engine out. And running more power, your want it every run, otherwise its just a tease. I'd like about 10psi, so I would love to use the gain feature to keep the wastegate shut until 7psi, then open allowing for any spikes. Would be great to keep all the boost. Look forward to seeing if it helps spool on my next dyno.
  14. I'd be interested in buying a couple set seperately. You may do better to sell them on their own Do a massive photo with like 50 sets per image, with code beneath them so people can pick. I'd be up for grabbing a few sets, my ass has destroyed so many!
  15. Will be good to see this, should be a good finish.
  16. lol I say do it, be different EDIT: you have done it. get it installed
