  1. Proper blast from the past/thread revival, but this car now has twin td05s mated to a 3uz, with BMW manual swap.
  2. They're teensy compared to what I see!
  3. I'll take this, Pm Inbound
  4. If Kendo isn't interested in it I am be.
  5. Just at a guess. A DBW Throttle, with an electronic throttle pedal. An ECU that'll take a DBW throttle.
  6. Have you got a FMIC? If so most kits come with a relocation for the expansion tank so it doesn't foul against the top of the front mount. The one pictured is the OEM expansion bottle.
  7. Herbie. From an outside perspective this and previous threads give the impression you've done a cheap NA-T conversion and are having teething problems. Yes your oil temps could be colder if the outside ambient temperature was cooler. What oil rating are you running for a start? An oil cooler is probably advised in any case, and I myself personally wouldn't be driving the car if the temps were reading wrong, bust gauge or not. It's a risk that could go wrong in multiple ways because of an assumption.
  8. I'm after a B03B Diff please. Cash waiting
  9. I have a Titan fuel rail avaliable If that's any use?
  10. So last night after updating the thread I was chatting with a mate. We were discussing interiors and how he wants his to be done on his ST205 Celica. We got onto the supra and how I wasn't sure of how the interior should be, and he started pinging ideas off me. So I've settled with this look for now. Topgaiters on eBay do plenty of covers for the interior so I've bought the centre lid piece off them to give it a looksie. If all goes well I'm looking at a full dash kit off them with orange stitching, like this. Teaming it with a set of Corbeau RS1 seats, also trimmed in orange. The only dramas I'm having is with the seats. Corbeau don't seem to supply a frame for the seats to bolt into the Supra. Cobra do however. Has anyone had any experience with bolting up a Corbeau seat to a Cobra frame? Cheers Scoot.
  11. It's been a good few months since I've updated any of this. Work's been manic and whenever I've had time at home I've done little bits and not much else. Hoping to get the car over here at some point to actually get some time to work on bits. Anyway, I finished up the exhaust system. I think my SSQV is leaking boost though, so that'll be going in the bin If I can't fix it. The interior was stripped out in preperation for the black carpet and headliner. While I was in there I mounted a Chris Wilson FCD. Top piece of kit and very well made. Happy with the results. The rear seats came out too as I'll never use them. Trying to work out a solution for a rear seat delete. I'm not a big fan of ICE but I thought of making a sub box over the top, Or just covering the floor with carpet between the boot and main carpet and sticking it down. Managed to get a set of Facelift rears from Mobeen on the facebook group. I know he's not popular on here but I've had a few transactions with him previously, Both selling and buying. Great service and a brilliant price too. I thought I'd give carbon wrapping the dash a go, as the bright red paint work wasn't up to scratch. I'm quite happy with the end result, although there's some fiddly bits that'll have to be going over again soon. I've spoke to Noz about some heater ring surrounds that I'm going to paint in gloss black to finish the panels off. The heater controls have had the LED mod done to them, In the end I went for white with red and blue the AC and windscreen heater respectively. The new buttons arrived and they're much better than old yellowing ones. The rest of the dash has also been done in White, and I've installed a heckler red line tacho. I also picked up a set of LS400 front brakes which I'm going to fit at some point. Slowly cleaning them up as they've miles upon miles of brake dust on them. The Front bumper had a lot of wear and tear. Plenty of cracks in the fibreglass and was generally in a poor condition. So I started by sanding back the damaged areas and reinforcing with small strips of fibreglass and finishing with filler. Then we sanded the whole thing back ready for paint. Whilst I had the bumper off I test fitted the facelift indicators. I need to get a hold of two looms for them and splice them in, and ideally split them to remove the orange cap. The rest of the body work wasn't great either so a few spots were sanded down and filled in preparation for a bit of a tidy up. That's progress so far. I'm back at work now so the next lot of updates will probably be over christmas. The rad has sprung a leak so I'm sourcing a new one and some autobox coolers. The battery and fuse box will be relocated to the boot to tidy up the engine bay and I'm debating a loom tuck too.
  12. Hey guys, I'm after an auto radiator as mine has cracked. Either a stock one or an aluminium one and cooler. Anyone got anything? Cheers Scoot
  13. Love those Ksports Tim! Been looking at getting myself a set for the daily.
  14. I'll take a set of heater control rings if they're still going Noz.
  15. I've not seen anything for the lexus online bar a few pages.
  16. Howdy all. I'm after anyone who has access to toyota/lexus repair manuals. I've got the supra side of things but I'm after the electrical and engine stuff for a 3uzfe from a gs430. Does anyone happen to have one lying around or has access that can help me out? Cheers. Scoot.
  17. Its the v8 supra in the classifieds. Might drop him a pm.
  18. Yeah I dropped him a text. He's away for the next month. Cheers anyway!
  19. Hi everyone. I'm trying to put together some quotes for a supra to be picked up from Reading and dropped off at j9 of the m40. Anyone know any cheap companies around this way? Cheers Scoot.
  20. That's brilliant. I've been wondering how to fill the holes that be been cut for old gauges in mine. Might try this!
