  2. Shall be there this month in something a little bit different
  3. I'm going to try and go, depends if I've got the car in time, if not I'll be there next month
  4. Awesome I can't remember exactly, of the top of my head, I think most people start arriving around half 7/8ish, but I won't be there until at least half 8 if I do go as I have work until 8
  5. Hahaha, I thought you might have done ok cool, well let me know if your coming down
  6. Cool dude, I should be there, just be a question of sorting a few things out and having time to collect the car hopefully, you know what it looks like? How do you know that? :O
  7. Well if everything goes well I should be at Bluewater meet next Friday so can take you for a spin then if you can make it, if not I live in Billericay so not to far away from you, and the Bluewater meet this month is the 7th of September
  8. +1 to that, I could never keep control of my right foot even in my N/A
  9. Where are you located dude? I'll take you for a ride in my TT 6 BPU when I get it
  10. Rear sump? I'd love to mate, any idea how much I'd get if I broke mine? But really I doubt I'd be able to afford it, and if I don't/didn't buy it mate, my friend is seriously considering buying it, but it won't be for a few months until he's sold his Clio
  11. Oh nice, thanks for the heads up buddy, :O give me them back! I shall let you know how it goes when I get a chance to give him a ring.
  12. Oh really? Might have to give him a ring, is it a Soarer?
  13. Lovely, think I'm going to go 1UZ route instead now actually, and Geo, i think N/A engines are even cheaper than that tbh, closer to £200 I think
  14. Lovely thought as much, so what is that... a new engine basically yes?

  16. Ha!, I could see that joke coming a mile off, even before I typed it. Yes it does move, especially in the torque bad it pulls fine, but as soon as it gets the power band it just doesn't accelerate as quickly as it should. Gears work fine and yeah I'd say it was a metallic sort of noise and its coming from the front of the car, definatley from the engine. No lights on the dashboard, its a manual, it's maybe idling a bit rough, possibly misfiring, but I'm not sure. and cheers Adam, I might PM him in a bit, I shall try and put a video up, so everyone can get a better idea of the noise.
  17. Ok so I was out driving the supra, when all of a sudden it started making this clattering noise, and now it has no power at all D: I thought it could be the bottom end, or possibly a spark plug, but I'm no mechanic, wonder if anyone else has any ideas?
  18. Blime, mine took over a week, although they did have to clear customs, mine are also working great and does anyone know if its a good idea to reset the ECU? and if it is how to do it?
  19. i'll be there this friday, finally got a friday off work, so will be able to get there at a reasonable time
  20. Anyone know how long it should take for the denso O2 sensor to come from ROCKAUTO?
  21. Why does it have to be brake cleaner, could it not be something like methylated spirits? As I know you can clean brakes with the methylated spirits, just wondering as I have some methylated spirits at home, but no brake cleaner, weird question I know.
  22. does anyone know if WD-40 would be ok to clean the O2 sensors with after they come out of the Lemon juice, or do you need to get specifically brake cleaner, and if so, would something like this be ok? http://www.halfords.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/product_storeId_10001_catalogId_10151_categoryId_228374_productId_249510_langId_-1?cm_mmc=Shopping-_-Google%20Product%20Search-_-Bikes%2FBike%20Maintenance%20%26%20Tools%2FBike%20Cleaning-_-Muc-Off%20Disc%20Brake%20Cleaner%20400ml&source=shopping#tab1
  23. Good bit of advice there chaps, I've been searching the internet for quite some time trying to find two sensors at a reasonable price, anyone know how long it will take to get to UK with the Express Mail delivery option?
  24. Ditto, I've just had mine done and just after I purchased the car as well and as others have already said before mine started to go it was always slipping in the higher gears, mainly 5th and 4th to begin with.
