She had a good run lol
-
Will have a look tomorrow, hope its not, i changed the Cambelt merely 2 weeks ago! Lol
-
Sorry for the delays with the vid.... I popped, the auxiliary belt off, it didn't change anything. However i do have a knock on tick over now so i think the engine is about to shit itself. Have a listen, all thoughts welcome. Sorry about the poor iPhone quality... https://vimeo.com/106620038

I will get a video up today, i suspect/hope it is the auxiliary belt tensioner pulley. I have a new one on its way
-
Suspension is next, I have Whiteline parts here ready to fit but waiting for my Coilovers to get here. Should be the end of the month though along with suspension geo setup. Will also be giving it a full coat of Waxoyl whilst I'm there. Will have a play with the settings at our local sprint track soon too. Wheels and brakes are after that
-
Too late...! Lol
-
So as mentioned earlier, the Aircon is buggered and doesn't work, decided to pull it all out.... Had to strip the Compressor as the lower Power Steering Pump Bracket is built into the front of the Compressor unit. There is so much room for activities!
-
Thanks bud!
-
Will get one up later

Hey guys, Excuse the title but its the only way i can think to describe the noise my car is making Firstly its a jap spec na auto 93 model. Basically if the car is revved up to about 3000rpm + and not under load, it gives a fairly loud vibration/growl type noise. It sounds like its from the top of the engine/inlet plenum... The noise was there before the belts were changed and is still there now. It is absolutely fine to drive, no warning lights etc. if you put your foot down and keep it there, its fine. If you do it and lift off its there.. Any thoughts?
-
Thanks guys, will get one sorted asap
-
Its on the cards for sure, people just want silly money for them though....
-
Changed the Cambelt today, wasnt too bad at all. Coolant and Auxiliary Belt was changed too, Was joined by fellow Supra owner DrMoz who also changed his Belts AC Pump Bearing has had it and is grumbling now the belts been changed.. Think I'm gonna tear it out at some point, the Condensor is shot and there's no Gas in the system either..
-
Managed to have a tinker today. Winter is just around the corner so decided to make a start with the Waxoyl. Scrubbed down the rear arches with a wire brush, Threw down a coat of Waxoyl and stripped and cleaned the Calipers, changed the Pads and gave em a lick of paint. Cambelt and Coolant change tomorrow...
-
Horn button came so fitted it, had to get my geek on and add a Decepticon badge lol
-
Coolies, will have a snoop around and see what the score is
-
Thanks! I have seen new leathers for the front seat but not too sure on if they fit any good...?
-
Thanks dude!
-
Got cracking with the the Carpet Dye & Roof Lining, please excuse the crap quality pictures, Sprayed it on, let it all dry and chucked it back in, has made such a difference! Even the Red is starting to look great! Also wrapped the Handbrake and Shifter in Black. Everything is looking better already Next on the list, I need to remove more Red paint, this time off the rear interior panels and fit a new horn button....
-
Interior Dye is on its way, and since it's Bank Holiday, took the opportunity to gut the interior, Theres a few wires and bits that need tidying behind the panels etc and the Carpet could do with a damn good clean. With the carpet and seats out, i took the opportunity to wet vac them. Carpet came up ok too but going to look much better in Black,
-
You know, a mate of mine said that, the Dye is on its way so I will try it. Worst case I get some spray lol
-
Been bad this week, aside from the Coilovers, I have now ordered front and rear Swaybars and adjustable Drop-links from Whiteline UK. I had the links in stock already but the bars are expected to arrive mid next week, Also ordered some Black interior Dye for the Roof Lining and Carpet, should keep me busy for a while...
-
Not considered it yet, but its an option, Alcantara would be nice and match my arm rests, just expensive...
