    L.E.D. Headlights

    The argument isn't can they be blinding. Its are they illegal. Even new cars can be blinding.

    L.E.D. Headlights

    Didn't think LED bulbs were illegal. Only HID due to output amount being so high. LED is just a different frequency why would they ban that. The reflectors wouldn't intensify a low lumen output. I mean I've not googled to check if its legal or not.
  3. I've raced GT3 before. For its power I was impressed but all that cash doesnt do much when it cant keep up with an old Supra. Even a little NAt like mine. Best road race I've ever had. Love the 911. And anyone who says they can't corner. I refer them to Bignum and his ring video. A porsche is nice. Just depends on your flavour.
  4. youll lower compression. Unless you maintain an NA headgasket. If you run a GTE HG and piston combo you'll be sub 8.5:1 compression ratio. With no small turbo. That car will bog down. Just be careful on this combo!
  5. Pistons aren't particularly expensive. If you're replacing them. Personally. Id just buy uprated ones mate. If you have to spend out on them anyway.
  6. I've never used the app and always had a fairly nice experience using the web browner through Chrome on my mobile. I'm sure people are appreciative that you've tried! The upgrade sounds exciting!
  7. Why? NA pistons in your engine can handle the same bhp
  8. Yeah i have to admit I've seen many going vvti so it hasn't gone unnoticed. I hadnt correlated the two however.
  9. Look who I found! I see now why you chose the 1.0 over the smaller 0.84. Comparable against the open 0.86. I'm curious though buddy how come you didn't consider a QSV? I've not seen any with vs without. Its just talked about so much. I considered it before but I didn't have the power to worry about it previously.
  10. LOL what does low boost mean Funny. I remember driving mine on low boost. Scared me at 500ish. Man thats so funny. Id love to see an NA driver have a go at 1000hp! Be like a 5 year old at Christmas. As an NA driver of sorts. I do remember the joy of boost!
  11. Never use low boost lol attitude of a Supra owner right there What rpm do you see full boost? Your pump gas dyno looks so responsive. I can see why you feel you dont need it.
  12. Thanks for sharing this mate. Man that pump dyno curve is really decent. I mean most would be so happy with that! Whats your low boost bhp value? Do you drive it at low boost often. Or just when you use pump fuel. Pretty lucky on the E85. I can't seem to find anywhere that's sub,£3 a litre here. Maybe I'm not looking hard enough! Do you think pre spool nitrous would be worth it / any fun? Whats next for this beast
  13. can you move the thread into supra chat please. I dont know what their worth.
  14. The turbo and both down and mid pipe? Or just the downpipe mate
  15. Thinking of changing a few bits. Just seeing if anyone is looking for some items. Downpipe would fit both variants. But running on my NAt at the moment. 3 inch vband with a 4inch pipe. Extended to clear the 6th runner. Also be ideal to sell with the midpipe. And considering selling my T4 flange 2jzge turbo manifold with vband wastegate port, braced section added, wastegaye outlet rotated to sit by the turbo and ported for exhaust flow. Machined flange so true flat against the head. Looking for offers really i can get some photos when I take the turbo off shortly. I'll be selling that as well. If anyones after a nice mid sized 62mm turbo, rated 750hp with the T51r sounding compressor. Comes with a fresh rebuild from OCDworks. Just putting feelers out there..
  16. wow thats madness. Be epic to see that on the dyno. How much is e60 and also e85 where you buy? Do you have any pump gas dyno sheets dude? Be awesome to see how 9# gas is like.
  17. Facelift lenses seem to be worst for that than prefacelift. Sadly its the plastic splitting apart at the material level. Its only really noticeable at nighttime. I used to define prefacelifts then swap them onto facelift as an upgrade. Sadly. Not much I've ever seen solve it. Using glaze polishes and waxes will help visibly deter from noticing. But nothing to fix it im afraid.
