I also need to do this with my car! Still trying to figure it out. Let me know if you have a light bulb moment.
-
Right im buying some plugs from online and i have the following option. Im getting the ngk iridium ones. But do i get: 1. BKR5EIX - 11 or 2. BKR6EIX - 11
-
Oh and in real life the engine bay parts are grainy and quite metallic looking, the pictures dont do them justice thats all.
-
Ah i spent hours under the car sanding everything down and wire brushing all of the components, then air blowing the crap away. All of the components are then covered in waxyol which lasts for bloody years! Im not too fussed on the finish as its only ever me under my car. The bushes are all coming out in a week or so making way for polly ones, so any that need touching up will be done then. :-) Im just surprised the price of oem disks were still that high. I imagined that as my mr2 parts had all fallen toyota would have done the same across the board, apparently not.
-
Ah, bet those braces dont come cheap! I may look into fabricating one in the workshop to save some pennies. :-) It is definitely warped disks that is causing the wobbling. You can almost feel the pads running over the warped sections.
-
Im just interested to see that is all. I absolutely loved it on the 2 i had and getting rid of that car was not a good day, just wanted to see. :-) Ill probably be real original and end up having it done in red again anyway.
-
Ok thanks. Thats good to know. I will stick with oem then. Master cylinder brace? This is something ive never heard of will have to look into that! Currently ive got wobbling when braking, which im certain is warped disks.
-
Thats exactly what i was looking for :-) But thats not my car you painted!!!
-
:-) Well could someone please take my car here: And paint it in this colour please:
-
Ok thanks. Ill grab myself a set of refurb kits when i know the ones i need. I was hoping that at least one of the companies on ebay was selling good disks, as was hoping to have drilled or grooved up front just to aid things a bit.
-
Anyone?
-
Ok thanks. I will have a look and get a pic of them uploaded. I assume that is £30 per calliper. So £110 for all 4, that seems very cheap!
-
Forgot to take pictures of the suspension cleaning and painting. I only managed to get this one:
-
Are there still places selling seal kits for callipers? Toyota told me they no longer do them.
-
Ok i will nip up and graab a photo of them today. Am i also right in thinking that if i have an aftermarket cd player the standard amp will have been bypassed? Is there any way to have this operating again?
-
Great thanks :-) Im trying to work out what i have on my car tbh. I know it is the lower spec n/a but i seem to have lots of upgraded things larger 17"wheels, black carpets and the other face lift bits. Are the number of pistons different on uk and jap brakes? Im also looking for some advice regarding the head unit/standard wiring in the car.
-
Would these plugs be any good for my 1995 supra? The champion ones model RC7YC If not which would be best, as mentioned looking for standard ones, that site brings up a fair few possibilities.
-
Ok thanks. Ill get a price tomorrow. There are loads on ebay that ive been looking at, are a lot of them to be avoided? I was thinking of getting grooved fronts and normal rear, then a full type of pads.
-
Ah great thanks. I will have a look on that site. Is going to Toyota the cheapest way of getting pads and disks?
-
Good to know :-) Although im looking for standard plugs not iridium ones, not happy paying £10 a plug.
-
Looking for some advice with some parts i need for my n/a. Its a 1995 jap import, not modified and i need the following. 1. Front and rear disks 2. Front and rear pads 3. Gearbox oil and diff oil 4. Set of spark plugs Im not looking for anything fancy just oem or oem like will be fine.
-
Can anyone advise one if there are any modified n/a's on here please. What engine work has been done and the gains etc please :-)
-
Anyone else thinking of going to this too then? :-)
-
Yer thanks to everyone on here to obv :-) Didnt have the play when belt had tension, wasnt until it was off the true broken pulley was discovered!
-
There is a show in leamington at the end of the month. 23rd i think, could be a good place to start?
