  1. Hi. One of my mates bought a stock RX7 around the same time got my RZ Supra TT (was in stock form then). Rx7 is quick off the mark and low to the ground, so handle pretty well. But mid range and top speed the Supra beats the Rx7 hands down.
  2. Nice looking Supra mate. Especially like the colour. I'm not biased at all.
  3. It was cold... I did my last run with 3 people in the car coz they didn't want to get out and watch from the side!
  4. Nice white Veilside... sadly didn't see it run today.
  5. Just got in. Gave up waiting for winds to die down to run for top speed. Self-inflicted i know, but i got in at 3am this morning and then got up at 5:30am to meet convoys... er.. kinda missed those. But made it to Tescos near Woodbridge in time to see some nice cars. After forgetting to turn off the top quality Toyota Traction Control and being restricted to 3000 RPM on my first run! nice... i managed a low 13 later on. Here are some photos... i'm off to catch up on sleep!
  6. Thanks everyone for the advice. It's really depressing looking at my Supra parked up, out of action, while i pull away in a 1.8i Avensis! The AVCR has no display on it at all. The engine management light comes on and stays on as soon as the car is started. I will check all hosing and plugs. Hopefully it will be something as minor as that. I am glad no one has mentioned turbos so far. Thanks again for the advice. Chris, have a good holiday.
  7. Drove my car home the other night running 1.1bar, no problems and car ran smoothly as usual. Next morning, the car had a bit of ice / frost over it and when i started it up, the engine stalled after 3-4 seconds. I started it again and once more it stalled after 3 seconds. At this point I noticed there was no display on my Apexi AVCR. To get it started i kept it up to 3,000rpm and noticed it was idling rough. When i drove it, the turbo(s) were whistling very loud and the car was jerking as my foot came off the accelerator to change gear. I left the car at home in the end and got train to work. Tried to start it again today and same problem. Engine management light is on, on top right of the dash. Justin at Torque IC has kindly offered to have a good look at it. But in the mean time does anyone have any ideas what it could be? It's strange since the car was totally fine the night before and i don't usually drive about 1 bar.
  8. Er... yes, thanks for the photo of my embarrassing launch and race against Steve M!
  9. doh! Sounds like i went on the wrong day. Oh well!
