  1. Bodywork came out really nice, gonna looks great once your other wheels are on! How about getting a slightly smaller numberplate for the front bumper?
  2. If you are happy to pay over 2k for insurance, just go straight for an N/A.
  3. Go to your network adapter settings, click status and see what speed your adapter is running at. If it isn't running at 1 Gbps then go to the adapter's properties and see if you can find the setting that tells the network adapter what speed to run at. When I had a similar issue in the past, turns out I was using the incorrect type of ethernet cable, as it wasn't rated for gigabyte speeds and was bottle necking my whole network.
  4. Damn that car just isn't having much luck, think he had another incident with this last year as well. Glad to hear him and his passenger is ok, can't imagine how scary that must of been.
  5. Sounds like you got a exhaust leak. Start your car up and block the exhaust with your hand for a few seconds. If the hissing noise is present or gets louder then you have a leak. Typically, as graham mentioned, it will occur on the gaskets between connecting pipes. Have you used any gasket sealer on your exhaust, or just the metal gaskets that were supplied with each part of the exhaust?
  6. 22k still seems like way to much.
  7. Recently I took some time to take my headlights apart and give them a clean. All in all not a difficult process, but I found that I couldn't replicate the chrome look of the pre facelift inner section with paint (testing on something other than the headlights). Cleaning and polishing the inner section gave me a pretty good result so I'm happy for now with it, ultimately the yellowing of the lens from inside has been removed which was the point of the restoration. Not the best pictures/lighting but: Before After Next up was a quick trip north of london to pick up an exhaust and some other bits from Broomie, who was an absolute legend and helped me out a great deal. Thanks again dude! Got the supra loaded on a ramp and took the old system off. New 3'' system on Finally got the angle I was looking for out of an exhaust Idle sound between the new and old system is almost the same, however on WOT the new system sounds sooo much better, a very deep sound. Have had some issues with the top secret bumper fitment due to some old threads that have been tapped into the bumper. Retapped the bumper and can use proper screws to hold the bumper in place instead of zip ties. Bumper actually sits properly now. Quick photo from the recent bhp show
  8. awesome, so nice to see new kits being developed for the supra. i bet this will be a hit with the worldwide supra community if it gives results to your widebody.
  9. Introduced her to online shopping. best decision ever.
  10. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/500BHP-top-secret-wide-arch-supra-turbo-skyline-modified-drift-6900-/171772054483?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&hash=item27fe698bd3 The all caps hurts to read.
  11. I had a similar issue with mine. Introduced a hammer to a flathead screwdriver a couple of times, and was able to get enough grip on the bolt to move it.
  12. Sorted, had a wire coming out of the ecu mixed up.
  13. Hi Guys, ive put a NA T 2jzge auto engine out of a gs300 lexus in to a nissan s13 drift car there is many wiring posts online for the gte but does anyone know what wires need to be earth# perm live# and switched live do i only need to play with the wiring on the single ecu plug many thanks
  14. Now that is a proper dinner table Exterior looks like it's in really good condition though, looking forward to seeing updates on this!
  15. They are quite light (can't be more than 2kg each), weight will be influenced on how you are planning on packaging them though?
  16. awesome glad to see it's running, hopefully no more issues for the foreseeable future
  17. Check you have put all the vac pipes back in properly, there are a few that aren't obvious on first inspection on the right of the throttle body.
  18. I used RAC with my last trip abroad, and had a competitive price compared to AA and going through my insurance. Can't comment on their recovery services as I didn't break down, but from a pricing perspective I'd say they are ok
  19. I've got a rear wishbone if needed
