    Nice Supra

    Is that guy in the background having a slash Very nice wheels though - good choice Jazz
  2. Very good point made ... this is what it is, a very well put together single converted uk car, with a lot of money spent to produce a very usable motor. Its fairly priced considering its a cat C , so theres no reason to be worried. The car is straight - otherwise all the previous owners and people who have worked on it would have noticed! I'm sure, by asking the right questions to the right people on here who've either owned or seen this car - the right answers will be found.
  3. Fixed mine too... looks like smacking is only gonna make you sore
  4. Set of 3 spoke wheels, gold centres with polished rims. Good for drag/track or winter... sizes : 17x9 PCD 114.3 Offset +45 17x10 PCD 114.3 Offset +45 The 2 tyres on the 17x10's are bald. Rims have some scuffs and wouldn't consider them 'show' wheels. (They are 3 spokes ) These do clear uk spec brakes, but need spacers ( supplied ) Wheel nuts will also be supplied.
  5. Can't believe this hasn't been snapped up.... Believe me, this is a very well looked after car thats looking for another passionate owner. For this kinda money - if I had it I'd bite Petes arm off for it! Having been in this car and driven it ( nicely ), its the perfect blend of cruiser/blaster for someone who wants an everyday driver OR weekend car. This is a car that can be bought and used without any additional expenditure at the current spec. Sales pitch over... If this doesn't go soon - I'm gonna have to take a visit and start px'ing parts :d

  9. These are loverly bonnets - and this is a bargain.... Burt - where did you get the bonnet pins from ? ( sorry - hijack !!)
  10. Thanks for adding at such a late stage Wayne...
  11. Your right... it just takes a bit of will power and guts to pull the panel off. Make sure that where you are pulling is not flexing much - that way you know you are near a fixing. Theres a load along the front so you can start there and work your way round.

  13. You probably need a supraforums login - sorry for got to mention ...
  14. Yeh - he does mention that - I like that kinda attitude.
  15. Anyone that follows the US boys will know this car .... http://www.supraforums.com/forum/showthread.php?p=4652113#post4652113 Ryan is puitting his car up for sale, so if anyone has some serious money ... probably +$120,000 and you could own this baby! ( seeing as his 12k miler QS is $75,000 !!! ) Going to go a slobber in a corner now...
  16. Heres the pics... If anyone is interested I can email larger images directly. Just PM me or Peter P and magical emailley things will happen This is a very cared for car, pulls like the preverbial train and would definately be a very good buy for someone wanting the single route. Pete's haemorrhaged money on this since he bought it!, and its a shame he's gotta let it go.
  17. Thorin, its a 94 L with private Ali-G plate :d Officially its 116K miles, but a low mileage short engine went in about 6 weeks ago along with the single conversion.
  18. thats the diagnostic port - OBD 1 is pre-96 I think ?

    Short shifter

    Yeh - same here - no problems at all - love it as its either in gear or not. But some people don't seem to like the 'notchy-ness'. Jamie - try someones first - it seems this is a love or hate thing
  20. Very nice Jon, Obviously worth the effort! FYI - finally got a pic of your lights on mine ... see http://mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?t=79466 )
  21. Nice pics - finally I'm famous ! - even though its my back.... Again Pete gets in a photo, but at least its not just my foot thats famous this time Big thanks to Lui for organising, it was good to get together with so many nice supes. Didn't get to meet everyone, which was a shame, so I'll have to try harder next time And - thanks to Seb for making my back famous
  22. James, When these were on Petes car, I noticed that the spool from the second turbo felt like the same 'hit' that you get from a j-spec thats decatted. Compared to my j-spec auto I had, I'd say they were a lot better, and safely producing the extra power without the downside of wondering how long the blades would last. A double benefit if you like Anyone considering these should bare in mind that they'd be great as a spare set of twins - especially at this price, with the bonus of uprated internals. Pete's would've kept these running for a lot longer, it's only that a combination of me /my single and Paul able to offer a great deal on a single kit that Pete's getting rid of them .
  23. Coming through.... techie boy to the rescue :p You can find it easier from here : http://www.whifbitz.co.uk/supra-exhausts.html No worries Pete - supose I should pay you for that bonnet soon
  24. I've driven petes car a few times and found these turbos to be fine. Pulled well and never showed any signs of problems on first/second spool and the switch over as well. Martin - they're off a UK spec. If Pete doesn't sell these soon - I'm gonna be lending him the money! - so someone please buy them :-))
