  1. I wish my car didn't have a light weight flywheel. It's a right pain in the arse. The way it makes the gearbox rattle is embarrassing.

    Boosting

    The stock ECU isn't mapped to run like that. I would put it back to sequential mode for a start and see what it's like then. Why is it running the turbos in parallel anyway?
  3. There was a gym in the hotel Miranda we stayed in at pdl Americas. You can exercise without gym you know. I won't be going back to Teneriffe though - what a dump

    Fire In The Hold!

    Ahh you know me too well Gaz Can you believe my Mrs hid the fire-lighting fluid from me the other day? We were only having a barbeque, she was acting like I was gonna burn the house down.
  8. I'm sure CZJ would rather be taken out in a Porsche than a Noble or Supra.
  9. or hole. You say potato This made me literally http://funmansion.com/html/Unexpected-Fire-Surprise.html
  10. That's the Idle Control Valve

    Newbie

    It's Bomex kit. Well the bumper, skirts and spats are anyway. The wheel arches and things on the wings look to be one-off. The blue 'flames' are supposed to be waves aren't they?
  12. The bib bit? I can't figure what bit you mean.

    Urgent!

    Why would you want poor condition UK brake disks?

    KatieC....

    I don't think so Rosie. I believe it just gets the process started. Though I'm no expert - thank God. Poor old Laz. It must be hell for him.
  15. That's a good feature. I wish TomTom could do that.
  16. They started making MkIV Supras in 93

    New pics in garage

    Eve, I can't make out what the left hand gauge is but the right hand one must be a boost gauge. Not a bad thing to have but it's in a ridiculous place. Does it actually work? What's the maximum boost it ever displays? Nice car though. Please take it easy for your first few months, that 2nd turbo can catch you out. ps, What's up with the dash? It doesn't look too bad in your garage photo.
  18. They just bend up the inner lip of the wheel arch to move it further away from the tyre.
  19. The 19s that were on my blue car (see my garage) rubbed like the ace of spades on fast LH corners. But when I checked the tyre sizes they are too big anyway. I've got the 18'' Lexus rims from the other car on there now and it's fine.
  20. See post number 9 in this thread!
  21. Amazing! You can hardly see the brush marks in that paint anymore!
  22. Isn't 'rolling' just the bending in of that lip to stop it rubbing? I know it can ruin the arch if not done properly, makes it go all rippled. If done right it doesn't look any different to stock from the outside.
  23. The J or JJ part of a wheel's description is nothing to do with the any of the sizes of the wheel - it's only of interest to tyre fitters really.
