  1. I have a Maxi-Cosi, in the back of the sup for a 1year old, fits lovely, cost £169 from Halfrauds
  2. I have noticed a brop in boost also this past week, and am hoping its the warm weather. Try her late a t night see is it any better.
  3. I have a Rotti you can have a lend of, he is rather partial to pussy.
  4. Poor Supra, but bet you have it sorted in no time, and revenge is sweet. Key his eye.
  5. Now, u know that's not the case.
  6. Nine seems to burn a bit of oil as well, if I don't drive it for a few days, I get a wee puff of smoke at start up, I assume that's the stem seals ass well.
  7. If you have a converter or top speed delimiter fitted check the wires to it, as when I was fitting my converter, I had a similar problem, see can you find the wee box and check the connections as you might have upset one.
  8. That would be very handy for me too. Although I think if you are stuck its just a matter of taking your driverside wheel off, the inner gaurd, both spash pans underneath and the battery. Could be totally wrong and am prepared to be shot down in flames, but that's wot I did to tighten all the connectors.
  9. Thanks for your answers people, have had the battery out today and tightened the remaining two clips, can't find any leaks anywhere, so lets just hope its the less dense air that's doing it. I worry over every wee thing, thanks again for your help.
  10. Supra autos, do not sound revy like other autos.
  11. D'ont think they are stuck on mate, think they just bolt off.
  12. That car looked like it had a dig at the front, as there seemed to be a bit of bad alignment round the offside light, better stear clear.
  13. So I am now getting 0.9bar in 1st, 1bar in 2nd, and 1.1bar in third, at night time help Auto by the way.
  14. Bit of bad luck there Fox, but think you can get a radiator pretty cheaply, try Trainors in Armaghj, they have a few Supras in. Any pics of the your orange squeeze?
  15. How much boost drop is everyone getting on warm days?
  16. I wondered could the blow off valve be the weak link, its a standard one, cheers for your help, I will get one and try it.
  17. Saterday was a good day here, so took the car out for a bit of spirited driving, after a while I noticed that I was only getting 1bar of boost where as on other days I have been getting 1.2 bar. Saterday night at 3am I finished replacing the inner gaurd and splash pans after taking them off to check for a boost leak. I tightened a few of the hoses, but there was no obvious leaks. I took the car out and was getting 1.2 bar again, happy days. Then on Sunday I was only getting 1bar again, tonight it rained so couldn't get to see wot she was doing. Could this possibly be due to the weather, a fault with the boost gauge or is boost escaping from somewhere, the car still feels the same and seems to be going well, with no obvious problems. If there was a small hole in one of the boost hoses, would it get larger and become obvious, or does any one know where to get a set of uprated hoses at a half reasonable price? Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Mods are - HKS Hi-power back box, HKS downpipe, iridium plugs, VFCD.
  18. Well done Dude, car is obviously a credit to your work, roll on 9s
  19. All you need is a re-trim now.
  20. Yeah even if we could get 10 or 15 Sups it would be great. Keep me posted on the Nos, wouldn't mind that myself.
  21. Maybe the reason you got the stuff cheap is it was paid for twice, the first time by somone else. I have one mate that ordered a downpipe, waited three weeks, got nothing, asked for deposit back, and again got nothing. Another mate ordered a boost gauge and controller along with downpipe for |Mr2 turbo, he paid a deposit up front and put the rest on finance, Cartoyz closed, and he got no goods, no deposit back, and the finance company were still taking money out of his account. Also I think that is more likley it waqs a bit of fancy legal footwork, to avoid paying the debts after it closed, than any other reason. Some people have said that it closed to change hands, but to me that does not make buisness sense to close, just so one brother could buy the other out. I really hope I am wrong here as I was looking forward to spending some money with them, but have to say the fact they told me my Supra Turbo took plugleads, dosn't fill me with confidence. Sorry for So you going to this meet Chief ( back on topic)
  22. Yeah I was trying to sort out the slight misfire I had when I uped the boost, so if they knew anything they should have known there were no leads, of course it was this fine site that gave me the info to sort the problem. To answer the question, sinbad, I don't know of anywhere, except maybe Track day performance, but they are down south and I have no experience of them other than my mate recons they blew this GTO, so I wouldn't go there either. Looks like if we want sonthing done we would have to go to England.
  23. No don't go there, they are a pack of bluffers, they told me my car had plugleads, when I said I had never seen them they told me "Its a different story when you are looking at them every day of the week". They have also taken deposits off people and then closed and given no refunds, they are a pack of crooks, more commonly known as Cardestroyz.
