  1. Not really, been busy with work and moving house! I've changed all the vacuum hoses for new silicone ones which has actually improved the tickover, it's now much smoother and constant! Got some red silicone rad hoses to fit aswell!
  2. Good advice thanks, my engine was cold when I noticed the tank was nearly empty, I'll top up a bit and have a drive and see if it fills!
  3. OK will do! I'll fill it up tomorrow! Thanks! [emoji106]
  4. Possibly a dumb question but here goes: Is the extension tank supposed to be full, mines pretty empty maybe an inch in the bottom? The radiator is full to the top of the cap. Thanks for any info!
  5. I was me! I'm seeing alot more supras now the weather's picking up! I'm from Rugeley where are you Mac?
  6. Took her for a drive and photoshoot yesterday as the weather was good!
  7. As title, silver super filling up had oem skirts and spats, gave him the thumbs up haha
  8. Looks great! Really enjoying following this one. I'd weld the manifold before you cut the holes out as if it's thin it will warp or just melt when welded. I did something similar and ended up doing it twice haha
  9. Fitted my stubby aerial today, I think it looks loads better! Need to find a better booster though, the ebay job makes the signal worse!!
  10. Had some poly bushes from strongflex fitted to the rear wishbones as they had some play! Also treated her to a new battery, got a calcium lead acid silver from Halfords woth a 5 year warranty. Took the compulsory ramp shot! [emoji6] Not the best pic,
  11. I think it just stops the gater sliding down the stick
  12. The tapered part is the bottom, and yeh I think it's just a spacer for the knob to sit on and the gater to Velcro around
  13. Yeh I had one on my w58, removed it to fit a trd knob. It looks a little different to yours, I'll take a pic after work.
  14. Hi, Iv got a little project on the go and I'm using an NA vacuum map sensor. Does anyone know what wire does what? There'll be +5v I believe 0v And output 0-5v The the wire colours are, Yellow Turquoise + red stripe Brown Thanks

    Manos' NA5

    What make and colour is the paint you've used, looks nice and fresh
  16. Looks awesome! Great work!
  17. Oh ok, may be due a new one then!
  18. The ballasts are ok, iv put them in my spares draw! Unfortunately after a few hours of fannying about with the head lights and fog lights the battery is now flat ..enough for the ignition but it won't turn over.... I'll charge it in the morning! Lesson to be learned don't fanny about when you havn't driven it in a week![emoji14] In the process of moving house at the mo and iv had my appendics out last week so not much work has been done apart from fixing the fog lights and the leather gaters. How old is the battery Graham?
  19. I've found out why the old ones didn't always ignite.... Bit melted and rusty I'll tape the new ones up
  20. yeh its got a ballast and the connector was just red with no polarity indication, plus i had to cut off the little clip tab to insert it the other way round. it works now the connector is the wrong way round haha
  21. Thank you!! That did it! :) Never thought to do that haha
