  1. Have a spare ticket but with no car pass. Had requested a refund but I will give them a call and try to request a car pass instead if you’d like it?

    SORN - painless

    Sell your daily, problem solved Its my first winter but have still made it out very other week or so.
  3. Thanks Is there anywhere that’s good to order all the small service bits (gaskets etc) online? Won’t have time to get to Toyota and wasn’t sure if the eBay stuff was any good.
  4. Planning to start servicing this weekend. It’s the first time I’ve ever serviced the car. Have got all the fluids and standard tools so hopefully be ok. Planned on doing the diff, 6spd and engine oil plus brake fluid, any advice on easy pitfalls for the supra appreciated. Theres a slight diff oil leak too (I think) so is there anything else I should check there? Thanks in advance
  5. Welcome Also in Leicester, hopefully see you around
  6. Hi, Did you ever decide on any spacers for the stock 17s? Thanks
  7. No worries, let me know if they change their mind
  8. I’ll take the turbos/manifold if no one else needs them, is it possible to make hybrid turbos out of them?
  9. Anyone heading down from east/West Midlands?

    The £20K auto

    Purchase with the heart more and more as prices rise. Looked at loads of higher performing cars (stock anyway) before joining the club and none raised the same smile. The attention as mentioned above is way more than I expected too. The only Supra I imagined owning was a manual over the years though. Maybe it was the f+f movies cutting to the downshift from an unusually high gear in the middle of every race that I can’t shake I was lucky to be able to stretch to +10k essentially just for a gearbox but it had to be a manual.
  11. Stock love What do you call the red side lights on the back bumper? One has a scuff so I wanted to get a new one. Some minor paintwork and service next up.
  12. You’ve probs seen this on eBay already: https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.co.uk%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F183676958613
  13. Sorry, we have a newborn at home it’s been a hectic one. I’ll pm you. Managed to paint the rusty hubs and get the stock rims on today )
  14. I work literally round the corner. Maybe give me a shout when you’re heading over, be cool to see your car.
  15. Mate they are wicked. When I was there guys had travelled up from Surrey for their Porsche. Looking forward to japfest at silverstone )
  16. I have a set of stock 17s to put on soon and the current advans have new super sport 4s all round. The geometry is spot on for the road now had it all re done. With the radio, it used to show me all the Japanese landmarks that were supposedly there, was a cool feature when you’re driving around. Unfortunately I must’ve hit the wrong button now as it’s quiet, if anyone can read Japanese or knows of a translation somewhere that might be helpful.
  17. Thanks both, really appreciate those comments. Had to laugh that you circled such a large area of the picture We all start somewhere? Is that the right thing to say now... So it’s currently with boost controller @1.1 bar, could there be any build up of heat issues with the cats left in at that level? I’m guessing (second time lucky) still a decent gain to be had going decat?
  18. Am I still allowed noob questions hope so... I was wondering what catalytic converters were likely left (from what you can see here) on this? My noob guess is the second one is removed with that exhaust installed. I just wanted to try and save some time taking it all apart if others can easily see some are missing/there. Wanting to buy decat stuff in the summer. Thanks . Thanks in advance
  19. Not sure if my screenshot shows the best data :/ Seems there are more model filters available under the A-Z search which might give a better breakdown.
  20. Sorry if this has been posted before (I did search promise). Relying heavily on the data accuracy which is likely not 100%, thought this might be of interest to people. Seems no obvious reason not to think it’s pretty accurate. https://www.howmanyleft.co.uk/vehicle/toyota_supra#!tax http://www.howmanyleft.co.uk They have stats on almost all cars from the dvla. Not as many as I thought there would be and more SORN than on the road these days (maybe just tips the other way in the drier months). There are a few other categories under ‘supra turbo’ for some reason and the main category includes some MKIIIs. Rare exotic machines for sure
  21. Welcome, That really is one good looking silver beast
  22. Thanks Greg, looking forward to seeing how they look on in the spring.
  23. Seen this too before but not today.
  24. Hire a new one and take that
