    Thanks for the support and info guys, had the underside checked and there's no damage to the suspension. Unfortunately the radiator and it's bottom support is bent in, was hoping to just get a new radiator and get the support bent back into place? After that and some new wheels the car will drive and it's just the rear end to get pulled which is gonna be a b***h to do

    Quick note for the crash scenario, took a bad corner too fast with loose dirt on it and bad tyres. Lost the back end but was only going around 25mph hit the banking then through a wall. Airbags didn't deploy and the radiator etc is fine no leaks or that, steering is also fine. Two blown tyres and ns rear wheel might be warped, got pulled on to the recovery truck no probs and the exhaust is fine. Already have a new bumper and was planning on new wheels and that anyway.

    Checked the boot looks alright, mainly worried about the axle but time will tell

    Was thinking that, my previous car has chassis damage when I bought it, drove fine but had a small gap where the bumper joined

    So I crashed the supe tonight, front bumper is gone and the rear quarter on the ns has been smashed in. Underneath seems alright from what I can see on the recovery truck. Thinking I'm gonna get it pulled out on the rear and put ridox widebody with a fully respray. Any other advice?
  9. Drove past you in my silver one and gave a wave. Looked widebody. Probably was at the drags in Crail
  10. I went back to it a few times, nobody knew who the owner was though, I'll check it out
  11. Seen you at the Edinbhp meet at Hermiston. Black with V8 and TRD badges. I was in the silver one
  12. Look at grams, that's where I bought mine and I thought the price was OK. Although I'll admit the bottom bit that I ordered is just fibreglass that I'm going to wrap
  13. Yeah, I don't think I'll have that problem using spacers but it's good to keep in mind
  14. Thanks for the info guys, I got in touch with Dave at JDM Distro who said what offsets I'd need with the wheels I'm looking at but they'll need spacers so I'll weigh it up. I'll take a look at your car when I get home Shawn, love ridox supras
  15. Hey guys, looking to go ridox widebody (rear and possibly front too) at the end of the year. I don't know much about wheels so any advice would be appreciated as to wither JR-11 19' wheels would do the job and if so what offsets etc? Cheers Link to wheels http://www.jdmdistro.com/shop/19-wheels/jr-wheels-jr-11-19-2/
  16. There's an orange one like that at JAE so depending on when you seen it could be that one

    Seats

    Hey guys, been looking into buying some new seats as the current ones are a bit worn. Basically looking for sport/bucket seats that don't need to recline as I have no back seats. Been looking at sparco sprints which look OK for the price. Any body have these cause I'm a bit worried about how hard they'll be to fit? Also can't be more that £300 per seat. Any suggestions? Cheers

    Battery Flat

    Ahh, thanks for the replies, just had it jumped for the short trip to the mechanic, let's hope it's the same haha
  19. Hey guys, was driving tonight and the lights seemed quite dim after a bit, then the radio restarted. I got a bit worried after this so I pulled into a BP station and parked up, as I was doing this the power steering went. I turned off the engine and it ofcourse wouldn't start again. Getting towed to my work where a few of the mechanics will have a look. What do yous reckon. Alternator? Cheers
  20. Thought I'd share this with the forum as it's a great car in great condition that would be great as a daily. https://www.gumtree.com/p/honda/honda-civic-2.0-gt-fn2-type-r-/1173781888 Asking price is £5500.
  21. My mates mum is stuck in Turkey cause of it. Dunno what to make of it but I don't think they'll be allowed in the EU now.
  22. I know they're not exactly close but Mac Motorsport in Dundee are good for working on supras. Just if you need any serious work done
  23. Looking at buying one of these off ebay. But confused how they work though. If I buy the one with the undertray can you still add the front splitter part at a later date?
