  1. As above anyone got a bonnet for sale in Northern Ireland? Preferably a standard one but would consider anything.
  2. Well after a run in with a telegraph pole I’m in need of a new bonnet and both front wings. Oem or fibre glass considered. I’m in Northern Ireland so if anyone has anything over here it would be a bonus.
  3. Anyone got a na open diff for sale?
  4. Anyone got a NA open diff for sale in Northern Ireland?
  5. Yea new headlights are on the to-do list. They have been restored but they are just too badly discoloured.
  6. Few more from the show Then a few of the other cars at it.
  7. Well got an indoor spot for northern Ireland's first indoor jap show. Was a good days craic and seen there was even a few other supras there.
  8. W58 seems to be holding dead on. I'm running a spec stage 5 clutch and a competition clutch flywheel.
  9. Was never a fan of Chris Evans. Felt he was trying too hard all the time.
  10. Everyone asks me that. It's bonnet raisers. You seem to either love them or hate them lol. I love them.
  11. Haven't updated this for a while. Here's a few photos of how the car looks now. Car now has as follows -18x9 18x10 Rays cv pros on Yokohama Prada tyres -link G4 atom ecu with 850cc injectors -255 fuel pump -mapped by Richard Bradley -ls400 4 pot brakes on the front -drivers bucket seat on bride seat rail -running roughly 420bhp Basically loving driving the supra now.
  12. Right just googled it there. Saying all i need is a shorter fan belt once the belt is removed. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/DAYCO-Poly-V-Ribbed-Belt-6-Ribs-1865mm-6PK1865-Auxiliary-Fan-Drive-Alternator-/361178682087?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&hash=item5417ed52e7 Is this the right belt before i order it?
  13. Did a search there but couldnt find anything. How hard is it to fully remove air con from a NA-t? Can a smaller belt be got and then just remove the pump completely?
  14. Thanks for the replies guys. Mechanic has it all striped down on the ramp and the holes havent really got any bigger. Welder is looking at it this week. As for the radiator area it is all perfect. Those holes are the only bits of rust on the whole car so probably cant complain. Sill are getting filled with waxoil as well after all the welding is getting done. The thing is i would never have found these holes as they were covered.
  15. Hi i started stripping off the hockey sticks etc on my car ready to be re undersealed. Upon removing them i found this. Now the car is away to my mechanic to get welded and undersealed along with all new brakes lines and braided lines. Now my question is is this a normal area for rust and will simply patching it sort it or is it going to just keep coming back?
  16. I went down the na-t route and if i was doing it again i would have probably done the same. If your like me 400bhp is plenty so the w58 will do me rightly for what i want. Although saying that if you have driven a na-t you will understand how different they are then the gte with stock twins. I love mine and the noise from the external wastegate is pretty epic.
  17. Right been looking at these and wondering if anyone on here runs on and what are the benefits of them? Are they worth using or does a standard one work just as well?
  18. Havent updated this in a while. Well the car is now basically of the road for the winter now but since it has been finished i have loved every minute of driving it. Heres a few pictures from throughout the year..... Trying to set up my innovate gauges My attempt at an arty picture with my daily driver and supra poking out of the garage lol After 500 miles of letting everything get bedded in i had to release some steam A day spent cleaning at a mates house Test fitted my work vs editions Even got the girlfriend helping to clean it I then added 25mm spacers to the front. Made some difference. Supra spoilers are great for drying your drying towel on Wee interior shot after it was all cleaned up Another shot of the daily and the supra Then these arrived from Noz off here. Hopefully let me run around the 400bhp mark Over the winter the car is going to get properly cleaned underneath and waxoiled again along with all new braided brake lines fitted. I also bought a set of ls400 front brakes so they will be fitted at the same time. As for performance plans i will be fitting my 440cc injectors along with a walbro 255 pump then it will be getting sent away to get mapped. Other plans include getting a rear cage made up and fitted. Few other plans include new seats as well as my current ones are starting to get very worn looking so hopefully get my hands on a set of brides. Sorry its so picture heavy but hope you enjoyed reading this post.
  19. Welcome along. What part of the country you from? Good to see hopefully another supra owner in northern ireland.
  20. When it was fitted it looked very close but i think it cleared the strut tower. Must have a closer look tomorrow.

  22. I'd be up for it as long as I was off work. Would be good to meet all you supra owners over here.
  23. Well it has been on the road now for a few months and so far all is going well. Car performed very well on the rolling road producing 384bhp. All in all very happy with the car now. I am now looking at injectors and fuel pump to achieve the 400bhp mark. These were at the cruise for cancer at the end of june. 25mm spacers on the front 25mm spacers on the front The girlfriend helping me clean it Finally getting to abuse it after letting the clutch bed in After a days cleaning at a mates house Finally bolted my works vs editions on for a test fit Wee video of it on the dyno
  24. Have the same issue with my na-t. Its running all whifbits kit abd map. Have you made sure the jumper settings are correct on the emanage?
  25. Dont worry was running air fuel ratios the whole time and never had a chance to lean out. Finally got everything sorted with the kit. Car runs well and with the map provided by whifbits fuels perfectly.
