  1. Well no, 'cos loads of things in that list aren't differences as such. Many of those things are found on plenty of j-spec Supras.
  2. Well done Bob! I remember you saying you had an interview over there. Tax free, accommodation paid . . . you're gonna be minted mate
  3. I'm surprised Matt H hasn't turned up and accused me of hacking last season's result yet
  4. JURASSIC PARK! :banana: I got it working. I reinstalled Active Sync and then the .NET CF 2 framework.
  5. 1, Africa isn't a country. 2, You did it wrong. It's always D and E because any single digit number x9 results in a number that the two parts added together equal 9.
  6. Still don't run for me Copied the files to my PDA's storage card but running GPS Speedo.exe does nothing.
  7. Sorry Mike I missed that question earlier. Yeah I do have a divided manifold but not a div tang turbo, so there's no advantage in it. I wanted a divided housing but couldn't find one at the time. I would still like to try a .96 or 1.06 divided 4088 though.
  8. As it happens I've just been out (manually) logging the boost/rpm response. I found the flattest looking DCW I could find round here and did a run in either direction. 6th gear (to compare with JamieP) from a 2500rpm roll 3000rpm = 0.30, 0.33 bar 3500rpm = 0.75, 0.85 bar 4000rpm = 1.36, 1.38 bar Make of that what you will
  9. Is that good then? From what I'd read on here I was under the impression that a decent intercooler could make the intake charge about the same temp as the ambient air.
  10. We both have a GT4088 but Ryan's has the 0.81A/R, mine is the .96 Other differences, mine has 264 cams and pretty good intercooling according to the Motec logs (GReddy 3 row) The boost doesn't really start to raise rapidly until 4krpm. When it does get going it's a fair bit quicker than the old PHR1 and it doesn't run of of puff before the redline, unlike the the PHR1 which just dies around 6000rpm. With the .96AR 4088 the spool is coming in later than I thought it would and to keep it in the power band you need to keep it above 4k really. This isn't a problem on a 6sp but but I reckon it'd be no good for an auto. To be honest, I'm considering swapping down to 0.81AR now. the .96 makes more than enough power for me but I'd prefer it to come on-song about 500rpm earlier really. On the other hand, because it's not on boost all the time it's very economical. I'm getting better MPG than I did from BPU and nearly double what I was getting from the PHR1. You may well be right. The spool now is certainly nothing to write home about. With the PHR1 it was amazing but that's no use if the turbo is spent by 6k, is it?
  11. If only they were for the manual !!
  12. Is this a complete clutch kit? ie everything to convert back to stock? How much are you looking for?
  13. We just have a family car and a Supra.
  14. He seems fine in himself. He's trying to get the other Beagle to play with him at the moment. Noisy little git. I'll get him to the vet tomorrow. Thanks a lot.
  15. We have a member who is a vet, don't we? Our 3 month old beagle pup has developed a large lump on his head. We first noticed it a couple of days ago but it's getting bigger at an alarming rate. I don't think it's an injury from him banging his head on something because it's not sore. At least it doesn't seem to bother him if you touch the lump. He seems OK in himself but obviously I'm worried about him. I'll be taking him to the vet's tomorrow but just wondered if anyone had an idea what it might be. (Especially the chap who is a vet but whose name I forget ATM) See attached photos. The lump is at the back of his head where it meets his neck. Poor little guy.

    Suggest a mobile?

    I have a N95 and the battery life is alright if you don't leave the bluetooth on all the time. Just switch it on when you need it. Turning off wireless network scanning also helps.

    Blimey Paul. You're not your usual diplomatic self today. You can't punish people for the crimes of their family members though. It goes against the whole principle of British justice, IMO.

    MOT question

    Not 100% sure but I believe you don't need front foglights for the MoT test. BTW, I've been driving my car with no MOT for the last two months. It's a no-points offence and only a £30 fine if you get caught. (I've been done for it before)
  19. I won't enter if it spoils your enjoyment.

    Which Turbo??

    hehe. So you have a downer on the 4088? Why's that then? It seems to work great on the Supra. What is it you don't like about this turbo? You reckon the 4088R is different to the vanilla 4088? Well hold the front page What a shocker
  21. Why have you got two pumps anyway? It's not necessary for a street sized turbo.

    Moral question.

    Oi! This forum already has its (not "it's") full quota of pedantic twats. Until either myself, Michael, RedM, Thorin, Pete, Homer, Class One or Branners die/retire/leave you're not on the Pedants' Committee

    Moral question.

    With the Snickers? Yeah, they aren't as big as they used to be, are they?

    Moral question.

    Yeah well, it was a night out with the Mrs. If I'd been out "with the lads" I'd have been unconscious by now. I dunno but I'm starving now. Do you think she'd mind if I woke her up and asked her to drive me to the kebab shop? I could eat a hgorse!
