    Well I presume B2B is Back To Back, right? But I can't think what B2C means. Do you know? Edit: Or B2B : Back To Bascis?

    What does B2C mean?
  6. Did you double check the one I mentioned?
  7. OI! Start your own thread! J/K matey Longshot: You know the orange plug with the white cantilever safety catch thing that's in the passenger footwell on the left hand side? Have you definitely locked the catch down? If you don't the fuel pump won't run and the car won't start.
  8. . . . the wiki page on the JZ engine How many inaccuracies can we spot? (Take turns, no more than one mistake per post, no consecutive posts.)
  9. Right engine for what? Do you have a VVTi Supra or Aristo?
  10. If you could stretch to £9,995 geoffvalenti is selling his really nice 97 Tiptronic TT. I've seen the car and it's in excellent condition. Maybe have a chat to Geoff about it, he's a good guy. Edit: Here the ad for Geoff's car : http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?t=139331
  11. It's not hard really, just long winded. The worst thing is getting some of the electrical sockets apart. The red car is the one Jez did, I just used the photo from his thread.
  12. Yes mate:D I wasn't going to but I got a bit carried away after taking the seats and carpet out so I could clean and dry the carpet (It was soaked with coolant)
  13. No mate, it's great - I couldn't have done it without your write-up. I found two things different on mine compared to yours, dunno if it's because mine is a newer model. 3 not 4 12mm bolts holding the top of the heater box. 1 not 2 bolts holding the AC pipes in.
  14. I just undid the pipes and let it piss out into the atmosphere. I know it's a bit naughty but in the scheme of things one more car leaking its AC gas isn't going to hurt. Loads of Supras have already leaked their gas out through old age. Nah, it was a white one. Anyway I'm there now. The matrix is out and I've found the leak. It's a tiny pinhole, too small to see by eye but pressurising the matrix while submerged in a sinkful of water showed its location easy enough. I called the local Serck's and they can fit a brand new core to it for £68 if I take it down there tomorrow. I'm not looking forward to putting it all back together though!
  15. Almost there now. AC pipes undone and the heater box is really loose. There's two electrical multiplugs from the fan under the bottom left hand corner of the heater box. I managed to get one unplugged but the other one just won't shift. I've been trying to get it out for 20mins so far but it will not shift. My hands are as sore as hell.
  16. Ah, I bet it's the aircon pipes that are stopping it coming out then. I've undo the two heater pipes under the bonnet and removed that plate but it's still stuck on the passenger side somewhere. I'll go check those AC pipes next. It was the mention of 4x 12mm bolt on the top of the heater box that was confusing me cos there's only 3 and I was convinced it was the one I couldn't find that was the problem.
  17. I don't know. I thought thought the heater box could be lifted out inside the car leaving the heater matrix and pipes through the bulkhead in place. Maybe not
