I'm sure the driver is one of the biggest factors, I remember a few years ago I had a few plays with another BPU manual when I was still stock auto. I was ahead of him the whole time. In BPU I would have left him easily but it's debatable whether this was mostly down to driver gear changing being poor. Personally,9 times out of 10 I'd whip a manual supra in a straight line and as has been said, this has been proven many times on the drag strip. The only reason a manual feels quicker is down to the whip in between gear changes where as the auto is a continual drag through. Carl

I have mine set between 55-58 and gain between 10-18. It's going to vary slightly on different cars depending on various factors but somewhere between these settings should result in 1.15-1.2 bar. If its cooler wether you may get occasional spikes to 1.3 bar in the higher gears. It's probably best to have at least two settings to compensate for the hot and cold ambient temps. Carl

Summer Bump Any sensible offers considered... Carl

I believe it's on the drivers side of the engine just under the exhaust manifold towards the front. It's almost bolted to the block. If its anything like the TT thens you have to move a few bits to gt t it as its tight. Carl

Dohhh! ( puts glasses on)

I may have missed it but what time is it best to turn up t the track, e.g. What time do the gates open etc.? Cheers carl

I have club stnd passes so most like.y will be parked there. I can pm my mobile just in case you want to pek and I'm not near car. Catl

If anyone should be Interested in a closer look at my supra i will be attending japfest next week. Carl

Ok, I have been thinking about this for some time running three cars is just no longer practical so the supra is going up for sale. I am looking for £6500 or nearest sensible offer. It is a twin turbo auto rz-s jspec. 91k on the clock. 17" original wheels, refurbished recently. UK BIG brakes front and rear. Black leather interior Black carpets Expensive component hi if system ,all infinity speakers and amplifiers plus pioneer head unit with cd multiplayer. Full BPU including double decat, blitz sbc-I'd boost controller and blitz boost gauge in vent. K & n air filter element in original air box. Recently had valve stem seals replaced and ferrea guides. All gaskets and belts replaced with oem Toyota parts. New radiator Had a second hand set of jspec turbos fitted, no fins missing. Good tyres all round. MOT until march 2013 Taxed until September The car has had regular oil changes etc. and has never missed a beat in the six years I have owned it. Starts first time every time and goes very well. Bodywork is almost perfect, no rust or dents. There is a Minot bit of lacquer peeling under the small quarter glass which you'd hardly notice. The car looks beautifully when clean, shows up a lot of three year old cars. This is a reluctant sale but none the less it,s time to go to a new home. http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7038/6983057934_b9474f328b.jpg http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7113/6983048372_98a5b79e0e.jpg http://farm7.staticflickr.com/6095/6869073718_3669d1e3c3.jpg http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7210/7015183459_1d97bbe20d.jpg

I'd agree with the seven hours labour if you don't know what you are doing and your taking your time but stripping all the pipes above the turbos is bout an hour at worse and the rest is just a few bolts holding turbos on. I can't remember if you need to remove the manifold first to get to the turbo bolts? It's awkward that's all. You'll need to replace a few gaskets to.
