  1. How Loud are we talking???? Also I notice that she makes a bit of a whuushh when backing off after a heavy dose of the old right foot....
  2. Thinking of getting a BOV, please can someone advise, IE: Cost, but most importantly, the loudness - grin factor!!! Also I dunno if im getting used to the Supes but Im sure its got slower!!!! Anyone else found this after owning it for 1 week?? Cheers, Jast
  3. Chase, Im also Interested in this RLTC, and I am near Manchester, Let me know how you get on, for the time being Ill leave it, Just gonna use a carefull right foot.
  4. My supes got a straight through pipe all the way, No CATS, the first ones defo not there, there is however a box in the middle just before the rear muffler, dunno if this is a cat though???? Just bin out init, Strangly Im sure the Turbo whines got louder, then whilst giving it a bit of a blow out down the bypass, its was hitting 1.1 bar. Seems OK. Anyone explain this fuel cut to me and also, is it normal for the gauge to shake between ranges say 1.0 & 0.8 when holding the throttle at a certain point when the turbs kicking in??? Sorry for being a thicko but this is all new territory to me. Cheers Guys:stupid:
  5. Any advise on how to fit the gauge in, Chris says he will do it, replace the clock like, wouldnt mind having ago myself, any one advise???
  6. This Thread is crazy??? Racing for Log books, Damaged Alloys and PlaySkool - Madness
  7. Well, Day 2 seems to have been a bit of an education. Good News is the MOT will be passed very soon, and after having the boost gauge fitted last night by Chris (cheers mate) I can see shes only hitting just over 1 bar @ 5000 ish. So no Boost Creep, I think. I say I think because driving aroung on icy roads in the dark, one hand on the wheel, boost gauge in the other attempting to get a reading, while kaining the supra up the road sideways is a bit of a handfull. Should be OK though coz I did a couple of standing starts, hoofing the throttle and again only just over 1 bar. The other good news is that while testing the supra from standing starts in icey conditions Ive found its not really that bad traction wise. Even with wheel spin it sticks in more or less a straight line, Quite Impressed! This mornings a differant story though, very very icey, came into the car park stopped, put her on full lock, just slowly give her some throttle and we went round 3 times in a perfect motion, very slow as well, it was like a ice dance I tell ya !!! :D
  8. Chris, Whats your post code etc so I can get multi map Cheers
  9. Good News, Ive spoken about the Chart, and yes its not valid, however I have managed to come to an agreement. ;-) Thanks for all the good advise anyway. Anyway the exhaust, its not a Blitz, HKS etc coz theres no marking on it, the pipe is running straight through from the front, no bolt on CAT just on single large bore pipe. then instead of splitting into 2 then back into 1 its just goes straight into a box and back out into the back-box/tail pipe. Cr*p Explanation I know. Anyhow what about this boost problem, could it be running at a dangerous level? As for the wheels, that could be the Issue with the traction, looks like this car has just been for "posing" not "PLAYING" Anything else u lot can advise me on???
  10. Nice One James & Chris too, Listen I ve looked at that chart, whats the end crack then, on the MOT i had it needed to be 0.3, but it hit 0.7. So with following the chart will 0.7 pass, how do they figure this out, and will it defo not be on the database? Cheers Guys
  11. Jim Jefferies know it well, listen if your in warrington you will have surley seen my old skyline, white r33 2.0 gta, looks like GTR got the badges, spolier, f bumper, 5 " HKS S Dragger etc, u must have seen it. L plate 17 " Momo Sports
  12. Im about say 3 - 4 miles outside warrington, south side. I saw a black supra last night about 5.30 ish and flashed it, that want you was it ?
  13. Nice One James, Ive read the thread, sorry for being so thick but what exactly should I tell this guy, I mean hes probably going to think Im trying to blag him. By the way the tyres are 225,40.17, just been out on dinner sliding all over the road, even from 40 half throttle it starts loosing tractions and wheel spinning. Why did I buy this thing?????
  14. Lets just say I have a WA post address ;-) how bout u
  15. Right, well for starts I need to get the MOT, TAX first and make sure this things not running at a high bar, who whats and where chris wilson, what u thinking?
  16. Cheers, restrictor ring, whats that. Please Excuse my lack of knowledge, this is the 1st turbo ive had, what about the spinning wheels of death, how much are these RL TC Systems. Its started to snow here, and I KNOW if its sticks its gonna be a hell of a slow slippy sideways ride home 2 day
  17. There Imolas Mate, Ill Have to check the sizes, sure its 225 45, like I say they are already on the car, only picked it up Yesterday @ 2.00
  18. Its running 17" TSW Rims, 225.45, like I say though this thing is wheel spin city,
  19. Located in N-West Mate, worried about the high boost as well, dont wanna blow it
  20. Cheers Mate, No my friendly MOT mate wouldnt have any of it hence no MOT, I cant tax it either!!!! How much is a decent T Control System, Its a JAP by the way
  21. Hello, I have just purchased a MK4 Supra TT (auto), 1994 and I have a few querys . . . 1. Its failed the MOT due to the cat being removed. Looks like a Full SS System has been put on, CAT Removed. Also Theres only 1 pipe now not 2 running from the front??? What do I do, if failed the test, 0.7, should have been 0.3 so it wasnt far out. Where can I get a Cat from to fit it cheap. Also with out the CAT ive heard this could be running above 1.2 bar poss even up to 1.5bar, Its got not boost control or fuel control, is this true etc??? 2. In the Current Weather the car seems to be VERY VERY VERY Tail Crazy, TRC Seems Cr*p, any tips for driving etc, Car seems to spin all the time, 3. Anything else i needs to know? Thanks for the Advice Guys
