  1. More than likely you'll also need to fit longer wheel studs .
  2. Good advice! Or give the ratchet a quick tap with a hammer, works every time.
  3. Have you seen it advertised here? http://www.findit.co.uk/cars/toyota/supra/1127473.php
  4. Have you checked out Pistonheads, there's a few for sale? http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/list.asp?g=&s=271&filter=&o=&pc=&min=&max=&txt=&px=&p=1&pagesize=12&xsl=list&y1=&y2=&d=0&dist=&nodays=60
  5. Arrgh, Victoria Wood on next! Quickly grab the control .
  6. Not black, a dark charcoal colour.
  7. They're held together with mastic, not worth attempting on new lights. Here's some totally clear ones, there's probably other places aswell. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/97-98-TOYOTA-SUPRA-JZA80-CLEAR-F-BUMPER-LIGHTS-W-BULBS_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ33717QQihZ002QQitemZ120041322123QQrdZ1 You'll need a harness too.
  8. A very good price, sounds really good.
  9. I know what you mean, it doesn't take that long to get used to 380bhp.
  10. Sounds very nice, it is a good price . UK brakes and a 6 speed!
  11. You've only got yourself to blame if you get caught breaking the law!
  12. You've got a varied selection of vehicles there!
  13. Hello and There aren't many places I can think of for secondhand wheels, just the for sale section on here and Ebay really. 19" wheels aren't that popular on the Supra. Do search on the subject, there's plenty of varying opinions. I've just fitted my 19's , the handling is great but the I've got the Reas suspension which was fitted to some of the later cars.
  14. The penalties for Ferrari would be huge, the telemetry they run on the car will reveal if he deviates at all to take Alonso out.
  15. I think the Renault engine will be fairly reliable in the last race, they'll reduce the maximum revs etc. I don't hate Schumacher like I used to but he should've been banned after he parked his car on the last corner during qualifying for the Monaco GP. He's a cheat!
  16. Yes, keep it simple. It doesn't necessarily need the words Car, Japan or Import in the name. They're not very memorable!
  17. I bet it doesn't stay standard for long.

    SZ-R mileage

    Assuming petrol costs 90p per litre. (normal unleaded) £30 equates to 33.3 litres, approx 7.3 gallons Mpg = distance covered / fuel used MPG = 190/7.3 = 26
  20. Someone driving a white Skyline flashed me yesterday but I was too busy checking my mirrors before turning into the drive to see him in time to respond, I did feel bad.
  21. But in the early 1990's when the car was designed was there any 18" or 19" tyres available ? If they were they would be very expensive! It's only in the last 10 years or less that the trend has moved to fitting larger wheels on all cars . Any half decent fast car now has 19's .Would the Supra suspension design be that much different, none of us know.
  22. How do you know all this? More roll, why? The suspension could well be a lot more durable than you think, we don't all go belting around the twisty roads pushing the car to the limit.
  23. The whole car? /vbb/images/smilies/bbcode_shock.gif Preparation and patience! /vbb/images/smilies/bbcode_grin.gif
  24. Halfords sell them, don't get cheap ones as they aren't very accurately made.
