  1. The 18's won't necessarily have the same offset though.
  2. It does look nice, definately stands out from the crowd. Richard Hammond has ordered one.
  3. ET35 is the offset, ie the distance from the mounting face of the wheel to the rim centerline. You've got to get this right or they'll either fowl on the brakes or the wheel arch. The wheel design is also another consideration, some wheels can fowl on the larger UK style brakes. I bet you're confused now.
  4. I'm bored. http://www.makotoautotrends.com/store-detail.asp?sku=M%2DTY97SP%2D0551SMX&maker=TOYOTA&dbname=onlinestoreDB http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/TOYOTA-SUPRA-97-98-CLEAR-SIDE-FRONT-BUMPER-LIGHTS_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ33715QQihZ021QQitemZ310011679272QQrdZ1QQsspagenameZWDVW
  5. Maybe I'll make a proper flush grill for the front bumper - not mesh.
  6. This plasma tv is supposed to be very good for standard definition tv, very popular over on av forums.
  7. These are correct. I'm not 100% sure about the window seals, I don't want to give you the incorrect ones. I recall the part numbers being requested before so a search might give you what you need.

    52mm pods

    I bought mine from this place. http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showpost.php?p=1264896&postcount=20
  9. No, because some Supra's come with stock leather recaro's. Some nice new leather on your seats would be very nice.
  10. Last book: Bravo Two Zero ( It's the only one I've read since leaving school ) Last film: Emperor of the North (Lee Marvin and Ernest Borgnine) Last album: ZZ Top Eliminator Last meal: Onion Bhaji, Vegetable Kurma followed by a large bar of Dairy Milk with a nice cup of tea.

  12. You could always send the pimp a pm and ask him. Just get stock parts if they need replacing, you'll be just wasting your money otherwise.

    What Van

    Ford will be doing a Transit with a 3.2-litre TDCi powerplant with 200 BHP! I bet that's nice to drive with 347 lb/ft on tap from 1,700rpm to 2,500rpm. I use the van a heck of a lot more than the Supra.

    What Van

    I've got a Peugeot Boxer LWB high roof - 2.8HDI I can't fault it at all, great driving position and really nice to drive. It's wider than the Transit and Mercedes Sprinter. If you're after a 04/05 van you'll find that all of the major manufactures make good reliable vehicles just like they do with cars nowadays. The later model transits have the TDCI engine, similar to the ones that they use in the Mondeo's - a really nice engine.
  17. The Dremmel carbon discs are the only ones to use, they're far superior to the other ones but they're not cheap.
  18. The crankcase hoses will probably be very stiff if they're old ones Heat them up with a hairdryer or hot air gun and they'll come off much easier, unless the engine is still hot of course.
  19. That's fine, thanks. It's supposed to be possible to upgrade to HD on their website but it's just showing that we have 4 standard boxes and it's only giving the option of buying a new standard box. There's quite a few people just buy a HD box from a retailer and get it switched over to Sky within a few hours by ringing Sky, I might do it this way as the HD and Plasma tv are going to be presents for Christmas.
  20. I've already got a 4 way LNB supplying the living room and 3 bedrooms, so no spare outputs on the LNB. I'm wanting to have HD in the living room, sky normally take an extra feed from the LNB so the HD box has 2 inputs so you can watch one channel while recording another. I'm not bothered about recording anything, so it will it be possible to watch HD with just the single feed going to the box, I cannot think of any reason why it wouldn't be.
