    V160 leak

    Well, as far as oil tasting goes, it's Gota small kick to it :/ thus telling me it's gearbox. What next? It appears it's coming from the joins still. Seals blown?

    V160 leak

    I cleaned the underside so I could see where it was coming from. Defo seems to be the joins but I'll check the prop too

    V160 leak

    As per the title. I've done some checking around and it seem the joins are seeping oil. I have pics.. You can see the join. That's to the rest of the tunnel. By the sump plug^ The front under bell housing ^ After the car had been running, the oil collecting ^ The join just past the sump plug ^ All the bolts are tight, but the underside of my car is covered. What do we think? Thanks all
  6. Hi all This is mainly for those who are in the peterborough area, The Collyweston Slater pub is having a bit of an open day in their car park between 1000-1600 on the bank holiday Monday (4th May).All cars and bikes are welcome throughout those hours so if you don't have anything really much planned, it's worth a look. The food there is excellent and its a really nice place to be. I've booked a table for myself and the Mrs for just after 1pm (it may get very busy so defo book if you want food also).My supra will be there. Hope to see a couple more! Below is a link to their website for numbers and address http:// http://www.collywestonslaterpub.co.uk
  7. Jurgen, I'm never letting it go lol . You did me well getting it for me! Top stuff
  8. I've just been reading up on this, it's not something I would consider doing. Anyway, it's detracting from the cars past. I don't want to take away part of its character
  9. It's gleaming. Still looks as if it rolled outa JM yesterday lol
  10. Maybe custom vin. But I quite like that it's not quite right if u get me. I know the purist (I am one to a degree) but I don't want to take away the cars past. Yeah she defo isn't for sale, I was just wondering what everybody thought. Ah that's not good :/ at least it's gone somewhere good like u say [thumbs] Any version in particular or something U can work on to make your own?
  11. Yeah she's a keeper! I was just curious. What you doing now, Still the blue one?
  12. Thanks all, it seems you are all in the same kind of ball park which is good :)hopefully the value will only increase over time! Should the RAF decide I can stay in the country this year, Im hoping to attend a few nap meets if I can. So you might see her first hand yet. Thanks for the comments so far
  13. Bit of an upgrade from my old orange one wouldn't you say? Lol
  14. Hi all. Just to be clear, it's NOT FOR SALE! lol but I am wondering how much it would be worth should I ever consider selling. A few facts, It's an import. Brought over by JM in 2013 for me. Only one Japanese owner previous. It's on 91000 kilometres (which is around 59000 miles) Aside from the exhaust which I'm fitting soon (whifbitz 3" cat back), the BBS RS Alloys and the coilovers, it's standard. It was auto TT but has since been converted to a 6 speed with a V160 installed (conversion also JM Imports) It's a 1996 facelift too Now for the pics... Cheers all
  15. That's what I thought. Thanks
  16. Hi all. Just want to clarify, if I run a single box exhaust setup on my TT, I don't need the restrictor ring fitted do I? I've read conflicting things on it. Thanks

    Diff swap

    I've got an A02B fitted that's on my facelift TT. It was an auto but now is a TT6. Will the A03B be a striaght swap?
  18. IMO, the GT86 has filled the market that the Celica had left and IF The FT-one is built (in whatever guise it's released in), it will in turn fill the gap left by the Supra. Yes, are a few throw backs but it looks like Toyota are letting their epic cars become legend and moving in a new direction (something Nissan haven't necessarily done R32,R33 etc). So does it deserve Supra badge? I'd say no. How can they possibly top the MkIV?
  19. After a definitive test, the speedo is out in all gears. When the dash says 30, GPS says 26. At 40 I'm doing 33 and at 50 I'm doing 41 etc..
  20. what difference would there be from auto to manual conversion using the auto prop and ECU still? my O/D light flashes every 2 seconds too. Im sure though the odo and speedo have been off since day 1 when I got it as an auto. The car is also de-restricted..
  21. im reading up on all now but, After collecting from JM, Jurgen assured me the car has been converted to Miles from KM. Im not familiar with the process but if the speedo is wrong, wouldn't the odo be as well? I lined myself up against an artic of which I know was doing 55mph. My speedo was reading 64/65 mph. As an artic driver I know this to be incorrect. Tonight after paying close attention to both, it appears to be in neither miles or KM but more in between the 2.
  22. So you think it's the diff?
