  1. I would Paul, but I have to head downtown to pick up Roy. Gonna head to Clacket's Lane from there about 10/10:30am.
  2. Pardon my American ignorance.. Clacket's Lane is a service station on the south side of the M25, correct?
  3. ~1.24 bar Up to you really. Some people run 1.4 for ages, others blow turbos at 1.0 bar. I think if its time for them to go.. then let it be. Otherwise there is no need worrying about it.
  4. I tend to get this as well. Really annoying sound, like styrofoam squeeking or something. Happens once every few weeks and stops as soon as everything is warmed up. The squeek seems to come from the center of the dash, right up near the windscreen. Fck knows what it is.
  5. Mind telling where / how much you payed?
  6. A TC (Torque Converter) has the same function as a clutch in an Auto Transmission. Thats why I first said, it sounds like the TC is slipping. Your ATF should be red, or atleast a tinge of it. If its ever gone brown it definitely needs changing. Change this before you do anything else. Driving on bad oil wont help the thing in any way.
  7. Brown oil could simply be it hasnt been changed in ages. Change your ATF asap and then see what it does! Dont waste time troubleshooting if it can be resolved that easily.
  8. Deffo should be red! Your ATF is the same oil that feeds into your TC.
  9. I think the stock ECU's revlimiter is about 6500. Mine goes up to 7100 or so. Some standalone ECU / fully built Supes rev well over 8k! Check out Atomic Fabio's car on the US SF. Thats a monster!
  10. Mines gone up just over 7k rpm cause of my ECU. 6k shouldnt be any prob at all.
  11. You know you want to upgrade the single you have right now Roy!
  12. And that is why god invented high-stall Torque Converters my friend!
  13. Hey, I'm a convincing kind of guy! (Test driving the car might have helped though!)
  14. Now we just need to convince Roy!
  15. The whistle type induction sound on BPU, I can only describe as sounding like an electric drill. Atleast for mine. Dunno of any other whistle type sound though!
  16. Was great fun mate. Glad you enjoyed! I think I am going to invest in earplugs with the Aerotop off. It still has me floored how loud that ext wastegate is! So, when are you getting yours? :flame Dev -J
  17. $190 USD from MVP Motorsport. Dusty can sort you out! 2nd down on this link: http://www.mvpmotorsports.com/Templates/frmTemplateH.asp?SubFolderID=482&SearchYN=N
  18. Uk Brakes went on with my 1st power mods back in November! I like to protect my investments!

    Omg!!!

    Lemme try and dig up a pic from the TX2K4 meet. There was a Y2k Turbo on one of the cars thats absolutely fookin insane!
  20. Careful if those are some of the "ebay" disks thats found in the US. Loads of crap thats sold over there that can break / warp. Do a search on the US Supraforums and you will find out what I am talking about. I am a firm believer in you get what you pay for!

  22. RLTC has been sitting on a shelf at the house since January's group buy! Really need to sort a definite date and head to Matt's to get it in. Glad you enjoyed the ride m8. I think I scared the hell out of poor Doug though!
  23. Dont get me wrong, the thing comes online like a bang and youre gone. By no means would I say its undriveable, so long as you dont drive like a twat. There are loads of big single Supras in the US that are daily drivers. Cant be all that bad!
