  1. took these when trying to figure out if it was lowered or not lol
  2. Will give that a try, thank you Sorry if i've misunderstood but you think thats normal?
  3. Kk thanks for clarifying.. Weird as pretty much the same both sides and equispaced. May be stud weld marks
  4. same on both sides above the wheel, if you click the image it gets bigger
  5. Also - bit off topic but are the little divots on the arches normal?
  6. I've got a set of VOLK GT-7's that at first i hated, but i've really grown to like them. I don't see the point in swapping them out for a cheaper set of non-forged JR reps of any kind, and my budget doesn't quite stretch to new ones or BBS LM. Would a "general" wheel refurb company be able to sort these out including the bolts? And would they be able to do anything with the centre caps. Or is there anywhere else people use for wheels like these? I've tried contacting volk directly but they dont respond. I'd like to get them back to their former glory if i can, or similar. Like the pic below
  7. have you spilt any drinks?
  8. i drive a 53 plate E320 Merc, family owned since new, 220k miles on it. I've got 3 weekend cars (mkiv, mkv, and v8 m3) so i have to drive this daily to be able to afford the others lol. Leaks from the roof, radio doesn't work if rear demister is on and it drives like a boat. But it's worth it!
  9. yep, look fantastic, thanks for sorting them!!
  10. Absolutely stunning mate, never seen one in the flesh before as DJG, are you running CCW wheels?
  11. i was under the impression HIDs were okay. If headlight washers were fitted they had to be working, other than that no issues. Happy to be corrected..
  12. Spotted this morning around Fareham/titchfield Absolutely stunning
  13. Yes, 1st to second always a clunk in the AM or when its cold (maybe lack of fluid at the beginning?) Also 4th to 5th feels like a knuckle I would assume it's normal mate. Like people have said they are generally quite "bangy"
  14. Jesus handle still available, aerial too(well the mast anyway)

    Nice to Meet you

    I wonder if there is a way to get in contact with the people who owned your car before you in Japan
  16. Michelin PS4s but not in the supra
  17. This may come across controversial and i'm not meaning to sound that way however; Take the cost out of it, it is an old car, obviously as with anything it's guess work a lot of the time when importing. It's something that can easily be missed.. I suspect quite a few cars on here have un-recorded little shunts in their histories that the owners probably don't even know about - it's only after taking alot of stuff apart you might see the signs. Yours is potentially in a more visible area (if that's what it is). Even the Auction graders can't always be 100% accurate, they usually go by obvious signs, or whether a car has gone through auction before having had obvious accident damage. In which case it is still subjective. The place where you have an issue with is not somewhere that i personally would look to find any problems. (i.e. when buying a car, i wouldn't really think to check that part) maybe that's just me. Try not to focus on that too much. You have a very clean, late facelift model with good mileage in stock form. If you want, i'm sure somewhere could strip that back, blend and spray it so it looks a bit cleaner. I would check mine for you but it's in a bubble at the moment and quite a faff to get open. They are getting to the age now where they do need some attention and will never truly be like a brand new car. I know what the dealer is talking about, in certain places the car does have flexible seam sealant but i don't think this is that. Perhaps they are getting confused. If it helps, there is a website called carvx.jp - you put in your VIN and it costs about £13 and they send you a kind of history on your car, it shows previous times it went through the auction, as well as pictures sometimes if it has been involved in a shunt. I have used it multiple times, and it is well worth the money.
  18. Hey Folks, Have had my E92 M3 DCT on and off the market for a little bit of time now. Had an offer to sell it a few months back at the price i wanted, which i turned down stupidly. (couldn't bare to part with it at the time) Have quite fancied a GTR to go along side the Supras and one has come up for sale in Grey (1994) which i quite like the look of. I was debating PXing the M3 to buy it but not sure whether it's worth it for another garage queen, or whether i'd be better off using the money for something else. I've never driven an R32 but they seem to have quite a lot of character which i like, and they are appreciating which is always a brucey bonus. Has anyone driven or owned one and can tell me what they are like and whether they are worth it?
