  1. Hello just wondering if you still had the rear number plate light unit. Thank you
  2. Hello, My dad currently has one. He’s owned it for a number of years. In 3 months he had an issue, it’s a common fault I know there’s two of them one on each side of the engine maybe the actuators. It cost like £1000 for one but when this was replaced the bloke also changed something else that’s cost £350/£450 the car was fixed but soon after the other one went so that was another £1000 so he spent like £2,500 ish in 6 months. Check these have been fixed if you are looking at one, other than that he got the clutch changed, after this it’s been perfect. I think the cars done around 75,000 miles but it’s probably one of the best specs it has heated ventilated seats and the bolsters move when turning, heads up display, suade roof so on but not all of them have this. Regardless of the faults my dad loves the car, stuff like that doesn’t bother him he gets it fixed and enjoys himself. Every car has its common faults some are more realiable than others, It’s a fun car to drive more fun than a C6 or C7 Audi RS6, it sounds amazing as well and if you like a subtle looking car it’s ideal although I think the front looks plain a front splitter would definitely make it look smarter. My dad bought and sold cars and he would say that Bmw do have more electrical faults, more than merc who are close behind but Audi are more reliable overall but the drive is bland compared to Merc and Bmw.
  3. If it's a Thursday or Friday I'll be up for it, I know weekday rates are cheaper plus it's quiet compared to weekends when it's heaving and more expensive maybe £10/£20 more per member but I could be wrong. If it has to be a Wednesday I could try and swap shifts with someone!
  4. Hello, how have the meets been going, I changed departments at work but was only suppose to be for 6 weeks which meant I couldn't come along because I work up to 9:15 they then kept on extending the time on a weekly basis and I have a feeling it's permanent : $ if you ever change your meet days to Thursday/Friday/Saturday I should be good to come along but I don't expect a change just for 1 member. I think Ill be going to supra pod so will see you then who ever goes! Was hoping to get in some more events but had too many weddings over the last few weeks! But yeah hope everyone ok!
  5. Hello, I have two nuts missing off my rear wheels one on each side, tried getting replacements preferably wheel locking nuts but nothing fits. I was told these were custom wheels and therefor cannot use stock nuts as they are too thick and the key wont fit in. The nuts I have are thin, Ive uploaded pictures of what are on it now and what I bought, the locking nuts are thicker just at the end that screws on the bolt otherwise they would have fitted but will be short in length as well. Been to local stores, halfords so on but no luck! Thanks
  6. Which shows from the above are the best? like most people if not all I cant attend all of them so would go to 1 or 2 of the best. Thanks
  7. It wasnt you was it? haha vw polo today with a old lady in the passenger side, other people would have thought he was racing himself. stuff like this makes my day and probably theres as well!
  8. Was that a pee take or is that really true? lol I forgot how many people try to race you just because your in a supra, it's good when its a decent car but toyota prius??
  9. Hello everyone, did you have a good meet on wednesday? More supras turn up compared to my first meet up? I should be ok to come wednesday coming up if thats ok? Starting to see a few supras on the road and in garages getting work done. Saw a black jap spec at revolution getting wheel alignment, a bronze colour one at tesco north shield a few weeks ago, my brother also saw a white one but said a girl/lady was driving it but am sure I saw the same person last year at shell gateshead?
  10. Am here! No milkshakes machines not working!!! Haha
  11. What time are people turning up, I don't want to be the last to show, it's like going to a new school and not knowing who's in your class!! I'll be over in a 1998 Mercedes, two tone silver and rust lol where should I go? Car wash or mcdonalds?
  12. Thanks Bossco appreciate you help. Yeah my dad normally tops up with water but am sure ive been told not to use water and get de ionised water to stop rust.
  13. Oh yeah didn't realise he had a number to call! Proper stupid me, no one copy and re-post that comment please! How many supras have you and hodge owned? I remember hodge white one do you have pictures of yours. Am gonna order loads of fluids off oilman he had some titan coolant that was 4 or 5 litre but needed to be mixed. Just wanted to check how much the toyota stuff was before I decided which one but would I use De ionised water with the titan one? I know hodge built his own car rather than paying a garage but does he do work for members as well, I wanted my timing belt done but am worried someone might mess it up. Called up JM Imports said 10 days wait and wanted £350 belt included or £250 If I provide belt. Been looking for timing belt kit but can only find the belt, do you only change the belt and not the tensioner? Thanks
