  1. I have my entire fleet insured with Reis. Awesome bunch!
  2. Is it though? I’ve seen a NA-T go for £35k without even being advertised recently!
  3. Oh hell yeah! The Gran Turismo nostalgia will be strong with that one!
  4. Can’t wait to see it in the flesh, despite all the blind criticism it has received!
  5. Ahh, that explains it! I didn’t realise the stock ECU wiring runs so close to the wheel arch and I’m on my fifth Supra, Ha! Is it just behind the arch liner or something?
  6. Were these parts not under warranty? Look forward to being allowed out this year, maybe, hopefully!
  7. No idea how he does it to be honest. Presumably he somehow tricks (or programs) the cluster in to thinking it’s a US cluster? The speedo is literally accurate to within 2 MPH! Stu has been around for decades. He has always been the go-to guy in the States for these sort of customisations. He also has the most powerful stock twin turbo car in the world (circa 700bhp!) - the turbos are obviously hybrids of some description.
  8. Yeah, no worries... Including shipping there and back, it worked out just shy of $1,500. Breakdown below: Custom face set $250 S2 LED Upgrade incl Speedo Conversion $495 HVAC LED Upgrade $385 incl New OEM Buttons Lit HVAC Supra Logo $60 Shift Light $195 DM me if you want his contact details.
  9. No, the ODO will continue to count in KMs which doesn’t really bother me as all my MOTs are recorded in KMs anyway... You’re speaking in tongue now mate. You’re welcome to have a look at it when it arrives!
  10. I forgot to mention, the entire cluster was also recalibrated to Toyota spec and the speedo now reads in mph, without the need for a speed converter!
  11. No idea to be honest, they can be dimmed using the stock knob, if that helps? The shift light rpm limit is fully adjustable, I know that much!
  12. Yes sir, they were custom made but I’m sure he’d be able to replicate them! Thanks bud
  13. Recently had my interior revamped by the one and only Stu Hagen. Full LED cluster with integrated shift light and full LED HVAC - pictures attached! Here is what the full adjustable shift light will look like.
  14. I know you need to butcher your tunnel to fit the older DCTs, which was enough to put me off. Went with the Lexus 8 Speed from the RCF.
  15. Pppppffffttttt... knew it. This is all part of the plan. We never stood a chance.
  16. Do you think? I used to like them too back in the mid-late 00s, but looking at them nowadays... they haven’t aged as well as the Supras have in my opinion. Still great cars with an awesome racing pedigree, unlike the R33 and the R34...
  17. Thanks bud. OP - congrats on the sale. Could you please confirm the sale price for the benefit of the other members.
  18. By old DCT box are you referring to the boxes that were fitted to the normal M3/4 rather than the ones in the Competition variant?
  19. Do you have a link to the ad bud? I’m quite Facebook-illiterate.
  20. This is literally almost a certainty at this stage. It’s a case of ‘let’s look good in the short-term by over-promising and let the successive government worry about under-delivering’...
  21. What have you opted for?
  22. Whilst that statement may ring true for the average VW Golf or Polo, there will always be the nostalgic demand for these cars. Having owned a couple of P100D Teslas in the not so distant past, as well as having reviewed the Model S’s most recent incarnation, I can say this; the novelty of the instant response will wear off. Once it does, the car becomes very dull, very very quickly. I also don’t see electric cars, in their current form, as the future. Imagine your entire street being “plugged in”. Notwithstanding the fact that we do not currently produce enough clean electricity in the UK, surely all these silly cables would be a trip hazard for pedestrians and cyclists. Unless, everyone is forced to have a fast charger installed at their expense, which would be unrealistic/unfeasible for most people. There has been some discussion about installing wireless charging tech under the tarmac on the roads but we are a fair, fair, way away from such tech being developed, let alone by the government’s, overly optimistic, 2030 deadline. So at least for our generation, I think we’ll all be dead before the time comes where there are no more ICE cars on the road. In the unlikely event that it does however, I’m moving to South America, Africa or the UAE where such a notion would be laughable.
