  1. Can't remember what they said, don't think it was bad. Tiff Needell tested the car. It's been discussed before on here, don't think anyone has the video.
  2. What a pile of Shite!
  3. More expensive though, sometimes they come up for sale cheaper, Miami GT on here. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/El-Glo-Dials-for-RHD-Jap-Spec-Supra_W0QQitemZ8030106437QQcategoryZ72216QQssPageNameZWD1VQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem
  4. My Supra is really nice and I love everything about it, but I would swap it for that Jag ! Nice to have a more modern lookin car!

  6. Before yesterdays game we had the 6th best defensive record in the premiership which most outsiders don't realise. The lack of goals has been the real problem problem.
  7. I don't think we'll go down, "we're too good for that". Souness wasn't very lucky with the injuries, Owen and especially Dyer who could've made a big difference. Boomsong at the back is hopeless. God knows who'll we get next.

    red supras

    Mines red too. They don't look too good when dirty as it shows up so easy, similar to black. But when shiny they are really nice. The colour doesn't show up well on photos.
  9. They look nice , didn't think they would fit. Porsche use a 130mm PCD.
  10. A booster box won't improve the signal quality at all . Sometimes the existing terrestial aerial isn't good enough for the digital signal and an aerial upgrade may be required. I'm not sure if all of the broacasting transmitters (might be okay with normal tv channels) are broadcasting the digital signal.

    Bmw M5

    Very close against old M5. New M5 - you lose!
  12. I don't think they show up too well on photo's and can look a little dull when they're not polished. I gave mine a really good polish last year and it looked superb. TBH I think it depends on a particular car, some black ones I've seen look great and others look horrible. I think it's the same with all the Supra colours, they need polishing!
  13. Hi there . The green Supras over here are very rare, the only one I can think of on here has just been sold and it didn't have an auto spoiler.
  14. At least £1400 too much. There aren't loads of manual cars around, just the more common auto and tiptronic cars which you don't really want do you! (Darren and Terribleturner) I've got a red car as you've probably already guessed, they look superb when highly polished like mine.

    Best exhaust

    Kazakhstan, didn't think you had proper roads never mind Supras! Like Fiftyplus1 said, the Nur spec is very popular.It's got a removable baffle in the rear box which is good if you want to make it a little quieter, some other makes are the same. It does hang a liitle low, I bent the long hanger a liittle to pull it up.
  16. Just aswell doing things yourself sometimes
  17. Did you use flexible tiles aswell!
  18. Thought you were doing the walls, you'll not need a battern then. If you're doing the floor, start in the middle and not against a wall (It may not be parallel/perpendicular to the others). You've got to start by balancing out your first placement so if the walls aren't parrallel to each other then work out a line inbetween these two so when you reach cabinets and walls etc they'll look ok. A good idea to place them on the floor without the adhesive to check the layout first. Don't tile onto floorboards, you'll need a plywood base first or the grout will crack. Tiling on concrete is okay. Tiling walls If you're doing a wall then fix a horizontal wooden battern across temporarily to support the first row of tiles. Start approximately in the middle of the wall ( width ways ) and near the bottom vertically. Plan where you put the first tile so when you reach the wall and floor/ceiling you won't be left fitting a very thin tile which doesn't look good. Use the cross shaped tile spacers, put two in at each side of the tile. (At 90 deg to the wall ,vertical and horizontal edges), you pull them out when the adhesive has set. Don't put them at the intersecting corners and don't leave them in. Apply the adhesive to the wall and then pull the comb across to achieve the correct thickness, only do a small area at a time. When you come to the joint at the next wall, use silicone and not grout because it's likely to crack.
  19. I don't think you're necessarily bidding against the vendor, sometimes the vendor has a few identical items for sale and was happy with the amount that the losing bidders actually bid. So rather than putting a new advert on Ebay they'll sell them to the losing bidders. But there is a scam where you get sent a chance offer , when you click on the link the advert is exactly the same but the username has changed. This would normally come from an unknown third party who was monitoring the original genuine sale.
