  1. How about amayama? I’ve placed around 5/6 orders with them, a couple over 1k and hundreds of items and never had an issue
  2. Thanks mate, I think I’ll grab the pre facelift connector and pre facelift battery clamp. just need to work out if the negative connector needs changing too as no part number online for the negative one
  3. Hi all, So I’m going to buy a new battery as i’m currently running a 40ah 330ca. I can’t find a bigger battery that keeps the small terminals so im going to purchase the Bosch 024 (005) which is 60Ah and 540ca The problem I’ve got is that my facelift JDM has tiny clamps. Is it just as simple as cutting them off, pulling back the wire coating and threading them into Bigger clamps or is there another way ? many thanks
  4. Small update.. painted my fuel tank cover while I’m waiting for my exhaust shields to be blasted and hi temp painted. My rear crash bar, rear tow my hook and exhaust hanger brackets have now been blasted and painted too. during last week I prepped and raptor coated the sills to protect them from any future corrosion. Eventually I’ll do the full tunnel and behind the wings but it’s no cheap stuff! received my TRD wing from whifbitz, unfortunately one side had been drilled incorrectly so have sent that back to him, Hopefully get the replacement shortly. mocked up the bonnet and checked a couple of my Bumpers to see which fit better.. rear hatch now removed and today it’s been taken down for its bare Metal respray. I expect it back in a few weeks, then I’ll give it a full fluid change, fix some leaks and fit an FMIC as the stock ones looking a bit worse for wear.
  5. you made those child sit on and ride toys yet?

    Misc Parts

    Thanks both, let me know @Peter P as in no rush! @riderit turned out to be the throttle control ecu which has now been replaced and working great!
  7. Waiting for my shields to come back from blast and hi temp coating too. Those look really good! What’s spectral lacquer? How’s it different ?
  8. It's not how you stand by your car.. it's how you race your car.. you better learn that
  9. So if you email them you can register for their individual display which basically means you can park in the grounds etc
  10. Looking really good! When do you expect the car to be finished and ready? GO Japan is end of September which would be good to see your car at
  11. congrats on the sale, it was a beautiful car
  12. Can you pay through Amex or similar? So you’re covered?
  13. bloody hell that sounds too good to be true
  14. Budget paint job.. cheeky sod Their paint booth is top notch and super clean, so looking forward to having it down there. They've done some other paintwork for us in the past and it's been spot on
  15. Cheers mate, I won’t. Will wait till it comes back as I think the heat from curing the paint can make it go like sh*t
  16. Little update - car now back from metalwork being done. I had all the little bodykit holes filled and sorted, the bootlid rust sorted and one of the rear inlets sorted. Also picked up a second TS bumper because why not.. I seem have to have collected alot of bodykit parts now.. oops. Also purchased TRD Spoiler which arrived yesterday so that will be sprayed at same time. This weekend i'll be spraying a rust converter inside the sills/box sections just as extra protection. (The insides are pretty clean - i used a camera and their is only the odd speckle). Then I'll pop the wings, bonnet and rear bumper loosely on, maybe try and fit the front bumper loosely too. Then it'll be down to the bodyshop on 06/09.

    Tyres

    My partners got them on her SLK if that helps.. Seem decent enough but then again it's only 200hp or something
  18. Must just be down to the extra time and hassle I suppose then
  19. Sky just want the easy route. It’s as simple as that. For everyone of us wanted an agreed value there is thousands of others who just want cheap and cheerful insurance. No risk to them then
  20. I wouldn't mind the headlight if it's not in bad nick but i'm not sure where you're based
  21. Still have the throttle control ecu??
