If you were offered a VVTi TT6 for £6k I'll eat my hat. I got more than that for a VVti Tip with a knackered engine. This black one is worth £8500-£9000 all day. I'd buy it myself but I don't need a divorce right now.

Wrong pump mate. You want a GSS342 for a J-spec. GSS341 are for US & UK spec Supras.

I've got a complete engine except the head (block, crank, pistons, rods, sumps, etc) that would be good for rebuilding. £200 - collection only - from Hants, Portsmouth area.

What is a RLTC diagnostic unit? I'd never heard of one until you asked me about them earlier today.

Need pics and spec. Some Porsche 996 are hideous, some are

Wrong.

110%? That's impossible.

Let me guess. . . The B&W footage of a woman rolling a car while going through a gate? Edit: Yeah, knew it'd be that one. Shockingly bad driving though.

If it's leaking from the heater matrix the water wlll taste of antifreeze (sweet taste). If it's fresh water it may well be coming from the condensation drain pipe that goes, or is supposed to go, out of the bottom of the heater box and through the floor where the floor meets the bulkhead. Have a butchers mate, it's only a push-on rubber pipe and may have got dislodged or split somehow.

Gaz, Ask anyone who's ever had to change a Supra heater matrix what they think of TRD fukcing rad caps!

Really? I find some of that quite surprising. You don't happen to have a high mileage Silver one with coloured leather by any chance, do you?

Aren't they mega-thirsty as well though? Like 12-15mpg? The M3 owners I've asked reckon they 20-25mpg depending on how hard its driven.

I got it in May 06. Since I've been working at Visa I've been using it as my daily driver but 100 miles a day at 15mpg gets a bit tedious. I've just agreed to go Perm too so that's about a 15k paycut. I'd love it if you get the car up to what it could be. It's probably the newest 6sp turbo in the club, maybe the whole UK, so it's got potential to something really special. As we discussed, changing the flywheel and clutch would make it so much more civilised to drive. Not necessarily, I'm open to suggestions. It's a good point Rob. I've been driving Supras for 5 years now though - I guess I'm just a bit bored of them at the moment.

The good ones are too dear for my budget.

£120-odd quid each from Steve Manley, IIRC

I know what you mean. I think it's the CSL wheels on the black one that make it look better than the blue. With a set of CSLs I bet the blue would look great.

Interesting. What kind of rumours? I think you might be right, certainly all the ones I've seen are SMG. Doesn't bother me either way really, I quite like autos and fancy trying a SMG for a while.

I dunno if they're worth the premium. They're like £10k more than the equivalent M3, which seems a lot for a CF roof and no AirCon or stereo. I think I'll invest in some CSL wheels for my m3 though - I really like those wheels.

SteveR came and took my car away today It felt very weird seeing him drive off in my car. I hope he got home OK. I did have a laugh at him stalling it on my driveway though. Those clutches take some getting used to. I'm really struggling to know what car to get next. I've been out in a couple of M3s and they were OK if a bit boring compared to a single Supe. I was quite disappointed TBH, they don't seem any quicker than a stock (non-BPU) TT really. I think I will just get a cheapo M3 for a while and see how I get on. I can always upgrade later if they grow on me. Any thoughts on these ones? http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/305577.htm http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/288489.htm http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/347210.htm If you were picking one of the above, which would you choose and why? Please spare me the anti-BMW remarks though - I feel bad enough already!

NA Auto Supra?

Too fussy for my taste. I hate those wheels. They were very popular a couple of years back though. Chris Webley used to have them on his car and folks used to rave about them - diffrent strokes

It's been a while, but from memory they look like the ones that go to an auto gear box. The middle one is the give-away - in fact I'm sure that's what they are.

NOOOOOOO !!!!! I played Ronaldo as my captain in a week Man Utd weren't even playing! I haven't had time to even look at my team lately.
