  1. Thanks for that Pete, I will check out the Farnell catalogue at work, meanwhile I have added a picture of my blue dash lights on my webpage.
  2. I have also changed my green LED's to blue, just need to sort something out with the backlighting of the buttons. I will put some pictures up on my website this weekend. Pete, Is the EL wire available in blue and where from?? Thanks.

  4. Has anybody heard of the Autronic SM2 ECU? Take a look at this website and see what you think. http://www.turbofast.com.au/autronic/sm2ecu.html
  5. I have a full set of J-spec calipers and discs available , mail me of list if your interested.
  6. I think You will like the look mate, I just need to take a few pics with My digi camera, I think the rear orange lense spoils the look when the rest of the indicators are clear! On My last Supra I colour coded the light bezel Blue and lightly tinted the indicator red, which also looked nice.
  7. I used the two reverse light clear lenses from the set of spare rear lights I had, the things You have to do, to make Your car look different hey!!
  8. I have already done this mod to My rear lights, watch this space pics coming soon.
  9. The rears are piss easy, but the fronts are a bit more involved! Took me 3 hours to do mine, mind You I was using air tools.
  10. I have used Dunlops high modulus silicon sealent, to reseal split rims with good effect.
  11. Ash, are You sure £20 for a set of six!
  12. Just to let You all know, I have sorted the boosting problem, it seems as if, I was loosing pressure through the bottom intercooler hose. Tightened up the clip with a 10mm socket, double checked all other pipes and clips. Took the car out for blast and hit 18 PSI in 3rd, so all is fine know :-)
  13. I ended up fitting a J-spec manifold and turbos in the end, It seems as if the second turbo isn't boosting! at 4500 RPM. All pipes / hoses look OK. With the previous manifold and turbos I was boosting to 18 PSI. Could it be the actuators or the wastegate faulty on the replacement manifold? Any thing else I should check? I want to get it all sorted before I advertise it. Cheers (Edited by Ibrar Jabbar at 6:46 pm on Aug. 8, 2001)
  14. This evening I managed to find some time to re-connect my boost guage, I then took the Sup out for a blast and noticed that I cannot boost beyond ~14 PSI, It seems as if the 2nd turbo is not boosting!! Does anybody know the symptoms? all help appreciated, cheers PS. fully de-catted, HKS drager, VFCC
  15. Like John said, I sprayed my headlight internals blue and then later changed them Black, take a look at pictures for comparisons. http://www.smartgroups.com/pictures/openpicture.cfm?GID=108882&AlbumID=351849&PictureID=1391178&Layout=L&Sort=ordernum&Dir=ASC And http://www.smartgroups.com/pictures/openpicture.cfm?GID=108882&AlbumID=351849&PictureID=1862554&Layout=L&Sort=ordernum&Dir=ASC Which look better??
  16. Some strut braces will not fit or will foul with a UK spec bonnet, just a word of caution.
  17. I have fitted the Blitz FATT Turbo Timer in mine.
  18. I will put some pictures in the smartgroups album some time this week. I have managed to locate a set of UK spec turbos and manifold, so I think I will be going for them. I will be selling my car soon, simply because I need the spare cash as a deposit for a house, so this turbo saga hasn't helped :-( All going well, I will be fitting them myself this weekend, I will let You know how I get on.
  19. Hi guy's, I have blown both turbo's on my car, don't ask how!! I have spent this afternoon removing them of the manifold, what a job! On inspection the blades have chipped around the edges. Can anybody put me in touch with anybody who can rebuild them? or is it worth buying second hand turbo's for £700? I can take some digi pics if anybody wants to see the damage.
  20. I have put a picture up of my headlights, in the general pictures album.
  21. Yeh, I've got a few pictures, where can I post them? My webpage needs sorting out, as I would have put them up there.
  22. John, you can buy 3M products from any good paint refinishers, I got mine from Brown Brothers, they have branches nationwide. I used 3M perfect IT it is a light grade rubbing compound ( you need a mop for this). I have since colour coded the internal surround Satin Black...I didn't like the Blue too much!
