    New Parts

    After getting impatient waiting for second hand parts and generally trying to be a tight arse and not spend money I bit the bullet today and treated myself to some brand new parts from Garage Whifbitz. I've ordered the Whifbitz 1000cc fuel injector and rail kit, a fuelab fpr, all the fittings and a pulsation damper removal hose. I have to say I called Whifbitz a few times trying to figure out the best set up for me and was more than impressed with the feedback and service, top guy. Cant wait for it all to arrive so i can get it fitted and have the car mapped so i can drive it again!!!:)
  6. i had the same problem, when its all on there it can be slightly confusing but when you trace it back you soon realsise the whole thing can be ditched along with a few other bits that are surplus to requirements when you go single

    Injectors

    Ive been on the look out for a set of 800cc or 850cc drop in injectors for a while but a second hand set seems to be pretty hard to come by. can anyone recommened somewhere to buy them new? they seem readily available in the US and Japan and at reasonable prices but i would want the heafty tax bill when the arrive in the uk. Ive done some research and lots of people seem to go for Sard. Any advice would be appreciated
  8. I'm running a borg warner s366 turbo set up, im unsure of how much boost it will run yet but im aiming for around 500hp
  9. Sweet, thank you. Witht the cost of everything else so far i was expecting them to be far more expensive.
  10. Im almost nearing the end of my single turbo conversion, can anyone help me with what plugs i should run?
  11. Hi all, Ive just installed a Borgwarner S366 turbo set up with a turbosmart wategate. I need help with the routing of the vacuum lines. everywhere I've looked on the internet says that one goes from the wastegate to the cold side of the turbo but there is no feed on my turbo. I dont really want to drill and tap it because i bought the whole set up second hand so obviously the previous owner had it running fine with out one. If anyone can possibly tell me what goes where it would be much appreciated
  12. Im currently in the middle of converting my supra to single turbo. Fitting all the major components is straight foward and what to do with the water pipes and blocking off one oil feed is all pretty self explanitory. However there seems to be a few parts which are going to be surplus to requirements and at first inspection im a little unsure with the routing of the vacuum lines. Does anyone have any photos or diagrams they could post up? Also my car has had the carbon canister removed by the previous owner if this makes any difference
  13. classic mini numerous mk2 golfs few corrados mk1 caddy a mk1 golf (i still have) Pulsar GTIR which kept blowing up but was my introduction to the jap world and finally the tt6 supra which has always been my dream car
  14. Whilst on the subject of ecu's what are people's thoughts on the aem ems 2?
  15. Mine does the same thing just before 2nd turbo kicks in but only if ive been driving around off boost then floor it, if i rev it throught the gears its fine....?
  16. what about offsets? Ive beeon looking at some and they are 11s on the rear with an offset of +08, seems way to wide but would be nice to know what width and offset everyone is running????
  17. Ideally id like to get a set of BBS LMS but can only fin replicas or VW fitment!!!!!!
  18. Sweet thanks for the advice, just need to try and find a nice set now.....
  19. Currently running 17" rota grids but i dont like them and think they look too small for the car. I have UK brake set up and am looking to get bigger wheels. Im leaning towards 18" to minimise scrubbing but Id like to know peoples experience with 18" and 19" wheels if possible. Also the car is going to bo be resprayed soon so all the arch lips will be rolled under. Please help.....
  20. This is the graph from the rolling road. Im more than happy to spend the money on the parts that itll need to get a little more power out of it, im just unsure what parts these should be as this is all still new to me. Im not sure if it has a FCD but Ive checked and it has a walbro fuel pump in it.
  21. Some of you may have seen I put a post of of my Supra I bought in the newbie section recently. The car had a few running problems which are all sorted now. Its BPU spec and I had it on the rolling road last week to set it up and check the fueling. It made 350WHP but would only run 1bar of boost because the fueling leaned off after that. So I'm going to get an aftermarket ECU. Are there any ECU's that anyone can recommened or give me some advice regarding this. Also I will be looking into a single turbo conversion in the near future. Thanks in advance
  22. Sounds good I'll come along to the next meet. I live in Talbot Green! There is a grey one I see driving around ????
  23. Hello everyone. I joined the forum a few months ago when I started looking for a supra. I wanted a TT6 and finally got my hands on one in the last few weeks. I'm new to the supra world and have a lot of questions if anyone can help. It needs a bit of TLC and there are a lot of things i'm going to change but the basics are there. So these are some initial questions I have (sorry if they seem a bit stupid.) what are the best size wheels for a supra??? These are 17's but they stick out too far and look a bit small. Ive been thinking about a set of 18" BBS LM'S Are these skirts OEM? I'm not really a fan of them, if I take them off can I put the small "vent/pods" on and have straight smooth sills? Where can I get a RMM type front lip in carbon or plastic? I'm also debating on weather to change to what i think is called a TRD rear spoiler (the one with a carbon blade.) It has a Blits Nurspec exphaust, trust FMIC, Blits BOV, greddy gauges boost controller and turbo timer but is only running 0.5 bar and has a boost leak so is going in to be checked over and set up on the rolling road. Im pretty sure it has a Walbro fuel pump aswell so what would be a safe amount of boost?
  24. I dont like silver cars and my pulsar is red, I'm undecided on gun metal grey but I'm loving the white and black! I went to have a go in my friends dads auto and was quite surprised will prob get an auto now
  25. I Live in talbot green (llantrisant.) I'll deff 100% pop along to the meet its only 4 junctions away from me, I'll be in a van though can't even take the pulsar as its blown up AGAIN. downimpact is yours the blue supra i've seen going through talbot a few times in the nights? dr jekyll where abouts are you? and are there any pics of your car on here? Thanks for the warm welcome everyone.
