  1. Get it sorted sooner rather than later mate. If the bearing breaks up the PAS fluid circulation can distribute the metal bits around the power steering system. You really don't want to be needing a new rack at £600 a pop.
  2. Faulty/intermittent handbrake signal maybe?
  3. When I wanted one they were 613.19 +VAT new from Toyota. Steve Manley does them for just 539.61 +VAT
  4. Unlucky mate. Still, shit happens - could've been worse. I once had to drive a car from Oxford to Portsmouth with no clutch pedal. It's not too bad once you're moving but you'll do almost anything to avoid coming to a stop! Getting going again is less than graceful Yeah, that's a problem for a lot of Supes with non-standard bumpers. I would have thought the front engine hook might have been a better choice though.
  5. 40 fucking quid for shipping? He's having a laugh ain't he? I've shipped sets of wheels for less than that! (Sorry to hi-jack the baby talk)

    how to screen print

    If you turn off your video card's Hardware Acceleration I think you'll be able to take a Prt Scrn of the DVD OK
  7. I'd hate to appear rude Or "C - all of the above" j/k
  8. TRD block? Nitrous pistons?
  9. So? What's your motivation for posting that?
  10. How am I two faced? I think you'll find that I'm consistent; I've always said you're a prick.

    reverse songs

    Some of those are rubbish - it could be anything - but The Eminem one is good. There's no way that is accidental
  12. He's un-banned now, by the way
  13. That's right but it's up to you put it right if it does get damaged in transit, regardless of whether the buyer paid for insurance or not. Not having a go at you, because I know you're doing the right thing anyway.
  14. I am indeed You have a good memory.
  15. I did a major double take when the pics first appeared! My grey Supe's reg is K55 BYE I like your wheels.
  16. It's the seller's responsibility to get it to you in good condition. He's legally obliged to refund or replace. I'm sure Jez will sort you out OK
  17. Spammers have been doing that for years. I bet it's only ever spam emails you get like that, not misdirected personal ones. Your real email address is effectively in the BCC list but a similar address to yours is in the shown recipients to trick you into opening it.
  18. They have. My sister got banned from eBay for doing exactly that recently. Serves her right.
  19. I have a PHR stage One and a GReddy 3 row, if that's any use? I think there's a pic in my vbgarage. (Link in my Sig)

    launch control

    So it's a way of making (say) a 4000 high stall launch at (say) 3800? Weird. Is it just a way of compensating for a too-high High Stall TC or is there a good reason for it? I bet Dude was the only auto Supra in country that had it.

    launch control

    I still don't get it. With power braking the TC limits the revs anyway, even at full throttle. If this is what happens with Launch Control: You're on the start line, the gearbox is in Drive, you press the brake hard and when the time to launch comes you floor the throttle. When the revs reach the maximum the TC will allow you release the brake and the car starts moving forwards, rapidly. How would LC improve on that? How are two stage rev limiters related to RLTC Launch Control? Totally different thing isn't it? I thought 2 stage limiters for primarily for manual transmissions too.
