  1. They're all in the drivers foowell on the right. There's different groups of wires plugged in, the colour refers to the connector which holds each group of wires, hope your are the same.
  2. Yes , definately the way to go if you want to reach 1.2 bar boost throughout the year. You'll find that if you fit a restrictor ring to give you 1.2 bar in the freezing cold of winter , when the weather warms up to the higher temps on a summers day you'll be boosting to maybe just over 1 bar. This is obviously because the density of the air will change as the ambient temp changes. Like Nic says, raise it from 1.0 bar (with a restrictor ring fitted) to 1.2 bar with a boost controller to is the best way to go as it will give you this level of boost irrespective of the ambient temperature.
  3. This will be one for one of the immobiliser circuits on the alarm, the wire will be in the ones coming from the ignition barrel. It will prevent the starter motor from operating. Cant remember what colour it is though. Bare in mind I've got a facelift car and I'm not sure if all the Supra's have the same wiring. I checked them all first with my multimeter. The following were located in the fuse box in the drivers footwell The ones for the central locking on my car were . The blue connector at the bottom right. red/white wire goes to 0 volts to lock the car red/green wire goes to 0 volts to unlock the car Current sensing on my car. Blue connector at very top left The green wire is normally at 12 volts and goes to 0 volts when the door is opened. Indicators on my car were. White connector at bottom left. Green/yellow wire and green/black wire
  4. I think I need to improve my form, the deadlift is a great exercise!
  5. I always find it difficult keeping my back straight which isn't good. I've started to raise up the bar when it's on the floor by putting a few plates underneath, without them I bend my back too much when I start lifting . 270kg is heavy!
  6. It's a black fabric sheet , clicks into place behind the rear seat and those things in the pic hold it at the rear.
  7. Why don't you sell and buy privately, a garage will give you a rubbish price for a trade in and charge too much for a TT.
  8. I hope he doesn't go screaching sideways around a track again, it's very boring. Show us what it's like to drive on the road like most people do.
  9. Fingers crossed for the race, I wonder what strategies they're on?
  10. 120 on Sky , if anyone's interested.

    Sucker punch.

    He might've deserved it, a bunch of idiots.
  12. A head on collision with another bike. Totally reckless in everyway, I hope the bloke coming the other way was the one who survived. http://www.totallycrap.com/videos/videos_very_bad_motorbike_crash/
  13. I was watching it on the news yesterday and a reporter who was outside the Police station said: The Police were hoping to get to the bottom of it!
  14. I've got 19" Volks with a 37 offset. I've got 275/30 19's and they fit fine.
  15. They mostly get removed , I reckon a few members may have them lying around. Toyota also sell them. I had a larger plate made up to cover the hole.
  16. Very annoying. Would we all leave a note though, I'm not so sure?
  17. Mind me asking where from? Don't know why I'm asking, I never drive the car in the dark.
  18. I would put it in place of the original 1st cat as they need to be quite hot to work properly, that's if the info you got didn't say where to locate it. How can you just put it anywhere, do you have to get the pipework made up to suit?
  19. You need to connect 2 wires from your alarm to the fuse box in the drivers footwell. One wire will unlock , the other will lock the car. I've got the facelift car, on mine it's the blue connector at the bottom right. Red/green wire goes 0 volts to unlock the doors. Red/white wire goes to 0 volts to lock the doors. You should check them with a multimeter first to see if yours are the same colour.
  20. It's cheaper because a lower rate of tax is imposed on it, only farmers and fisherman/boaters are allowed to use it.
  21. No, it's probably us being pessimistic. But that'll be for a standard car. Most of us will probably change them more often necessary just to be on the safe side.
  22. NGK - BKR7E (6097) These cost about £10.50 for 6 at your local Partco , they do the job .
  23. The sound of the exhaust will definately put a smile on your face.
