    Cambelt Cover

    I haven't had a cambelt/sparkplug cover on mine for over a year. I have got one, in the garage, I just leave it off 'cos it makes it easier to change the plugs. They don't really do owt except stop you catching your medallion in the timing gear - but my Supra isn't an aerotop anyway so I don't have to worry about that.
  2. You found out another guy is getting more money and that is making you ill? How strange. How do you know what this other person is being paid? And why does it make a big difference to you?
  3. No, it's a "I owe sh!t loads of money so a cut in interest rates is good for me" thread. If you have lots of money a cut in the interest would be bad thing, wouldn't it?
  4. Hi Phil, Does this come with the lightened flywheel? I presume it won't work with a stock flywheel, right?
  5. Best Buy and Target I think are the main ones.
  6. errrr, no. It would still gain forward movement (and therefore take off), the conveyor belt just makes the wheels turn faster. The plane is pushing/pulling itself forward against the air, not the runway/conveyor. The air is not affected by the moving surface the plane is standing on. I can see where people are having trouble understanding this; it's because they assume that the moving belt stops the plane moving forwards, but it really wouldn't stop it doing that - it would just make the wheels revolve more quickly. Once you've grasped that it's fairly easy to understand, isn't it?
  7. Already mapped for your car? Forget it mate, it doesn't work like that.

    Want to buy a Supra

    FI (not F1) is the non-turbo Mk3 Supra.
  9. You said Which didn't really make sense with the other posts removed.
  10. It felt bad because it was flat. It came off the rim because you continued to drive on it flat. It's fooked now and the wheel probably is too.
  11. Who are you and what have you done with our Michael?
  12. Checked my bank statement today and saw that Virgin (NTL as was) are now charging me £24/month for my broadband instead of the £17.99 it used to be. I rang them to complain but they said my 1 year introductory discount had now finished. So I said in that case cancel my broadband. They put me through to a nice lady in Cancellations who said she would switch us to 20 MB broadband for the same cost as 4 meg! She also said that in June they are upgrading the 20mb service to 50mb for the same price. PORNTASTIC!! /vbb/images/smilies/bbcode_grin.gif
  13. I'd be more interested in a good cast manifold that can accommodate a reasonable size WG - there's already a wide choice of tubular ones.
  14. My Mrs has a 05 Yaris 1.3 VVTi. She loves it. It's really nice to drive; I often drive it myself, when she lets me. It's pretty quick for a little car and does a consistent 43mpg. If I were looking now I'd go for the diesel one if I could find one. There's even a Yaris forum. One of the guys on there gets 15sec ¼ mile times - would put some of our members to shame
  15. Not me mate (if that's what you meant). I want less Supras not more. I wouldn't have another Tip anyway.
  16. . . . and which ECU will you be going for?
  17. Hamilton shouldn't have to put up with racism like that, especially from a bunch of greasy dego spic donkey f*ckers

    Prison Pruno

    Never mind the homebrew alcohol, did you notice this part of the article . . . Huh? /vbb/images/smilies/bbcode_shock.gif
  19. How can they get away with blatantly untrue claims like that?
  20. Check the intercooler pipe that is down the side of the radiator, between the rad and the battery but lower than the battery. That's where they often pop off if you're running more boost than stock. The other place is inside the wing on the drivers side, where the pipe goes through the inner wing and connects to the SMIC. Taking the driver's side headlight out might help you see if the problem is there. Else you'll have to take the wheel arch lining out to have a look.
  21. Saw it last night. It's just as frustrating as ever. Leaves you with more questions than answers.
