  1. Cars in london. Had a slight issue with a leak from the throttle body from the pipe so car didn't like full throttle on the way up there. Should just be water on the HT leads, extra work that needs doing!! But at least it's in the right place. Hoses don't fit for oil cooler (doh!) and oil lines need replacing for turbo. Only time will tell...

    LPG conversions

    I don't want to LPG my supra. I wanted to know who had done any conversions on any of their cars, thus the off topic location. I will PM havard and ask how his experience was getting it installed.

    LPG conversions

    I found a huge amount of information, just wondering if anyone had any experiences on here. Would of been nice to get some of your guys opinions on any of your vehicles you'd had done. Not every experience is logged on google

    LPG conversions

    anyone had any experience with this? looking to get my focus done in the new year. was looking at biofuel, but its just to time consuming learning how to do the process properly, i struggle with time at the moment and have one or two mini supra projects i want to start so think its is the best route to fight the rising fuel prices. would be on my turbo diesel. i heard it cost around £1k, prices may be different now though.
  9. thanks mate im gonna get some batterys for my camera and leave it with paul and ask him very very nicely if he can take some pics along the way. cant wait for that first youtube video upload of the dyno attempt... hope it all goes well.

    where did the guy live did he say? i showed my manager that link as he was looking for a jag. maybe it was him lol?
  15. have you got any more pictures of it? reason i ask is i was tempted to buy a gt300 kit but having a black car ive never seen one nice in black but that one looks tidy.
  16. Morning all. I have a HKS not so recent boost controller. Im looking for just over 9psi. I have 2 wastegate springs for this option, I have a 5psi and a 8psi. Really, I'd like to use the 5psi for low boost, and increase it with the controller to the desired pressure. Is increasing by 4psi alot? I thought I read that typically, boost controller can increase the boost by around twice the wastegate spring. I thought I had a 7psi spring, and going to 9psi wouldn't be an issue, but further inspection I can only find a 5psi and 8psi. 8psi is a bit high to use all the time IMO. The car isn't a daily driver, but I still don't want that high if I can get away with it. This may be obvious and with no issues, I'm just questioning everything that may go wrong or any product limitations as Im not fully aware of boost limitations and equipment used with it. Im a boost newbie so hopefully someone can help. Heres some shots just for information what controller Im using (someone might have experience with it, can't seem to find any serial on it though this may not be even releavent) Thanks
  17. what rear bumper is that car styling? i think it looks lush.
  18. did i read that correctly. comes with free car?
  19. thanks for your top tips. il keep this in mind and will order some paper soon. im hoping to split the lights this week so that will be job number one. going to have to take LOADS of measurements to understand the light dimensions to re-design the dipped beam location. if i was going to keep the unit the same i would probably just use the main beam rather than the fog light, but wanting more area the dipped is in the way. it will def be a challenge. im hoping i can crack on with this in the next few weeks. at least have measurements and concepts. im unsure what shape to have the intake :S
  20. Dunk do you have any more pics, thats awesome
  21. as long as I have dipped beam at the correct levels im happy with that. not having a main beam is as issue anyone running a headlight intake will have. it may not be MOT friendly, but I can not worry about having to change the unit to drive home safely. ive driven around with my other unit in and not had any issues. its not to be used as a headlight replacement 24hours a day but just if im going to a track day i dont have to worry about swapping it out. previously driving around with my main unit in, i have to change it when it gets dark. now thats a pain. to be fair, i think designing brackets and sealing the unit will be easy and the fun part. i can design sheet brackets and seal it no problem. i think the challenge, will be making all this sit nicely and fit in the headlight location. its really tight in the back, as i found out when making a whole unit as the headlight. i will only have a small area to clear, so hopefully it won't take aaaaages. what grades of paper did you finally use to give it the clear finish? and why weren't you happy with the end results thanks mate
