55 quid per litre for the Castrol SRF, you're right it's not cheap http://www.demon-tweeks.co.uk/catalogue/product_detail.asp?CLS=ROAD&TLGRP=R004&PGRP=RP042&GRP=RP042&PCODE=CAS1767 The Motul RBF 600 is only about 7 quid per 1/2 litre The castrol stuff might be good but for most of us it's a bit excessive and not necessary don't you think!

Found this on Supraforums $250k Supra

There's only 2 bolts on each side for the bonnet. You won't have any difficulty in getting parts from your local Toyota dealer, they cater for imports aswell. Just give them your chassis number.

Depends on how you drive the car really MOTUL RBF 600 (Dot 4) 100% synthetic fluid for hydraulic-actuated brake and clutch systems. Specifically designed to resist the high temperatures of actuated (steel or carbon) racing brakes and clutch systems. or Motul Dot 5.1 brake fluid LONG LIFE 100% synthetic fluid for hydraulic actuated-brake and clutch systems. DOT 5.1 NON-SILICONE BASE. Fluidity specially designed for anti-locking brake systems

I wouldn't think there was any need to do it that way, just look at the colour of the plugs. Nice to have a look though!

The bad bits of the A1 are in North Yorkshire, pathetic they haven't upgraded them to Motorway yet though. Nothing wrong with the roads up here, must have been something to do with your driving. There isn't so many flash cars up here as in the congested south!

Don't know if you've seen this thread http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?t=32245&page=2&pp=15&highlight=power+steering

Not sure if you've got any bits of the dash apart and some of the plugs removed near the radio section. Cannot remember which one it is but if you unplug one of them it will cut your power steering!

That's right, I tried myself a few days ago.

Yeah, that! A good excuse for replacing the fluid with some better stuff!

Don't blame Ferrari for wanting to get some good points but they couln't give a bloody toss about somehow putting a race on for the millions of loyal supporters. They're the only team that won't agree to less testing to reduce costs!

It's even more boring than F1 though!

F1 Qualifying is on ITV2 6.50

LOL

Loads of us on here replace the pump on our J spec cars with a Walbro one, plenty of traders on here sell them. Or if you wanted a used J spec pump there'll be many lying around.

Just finished doing all of mine on Wednesday, I put longer ones in. With the original ones in place the nut was only holding on about 5mm. With the new ones it's almost a full 25mm. You have to remove the calipers and brake discs, don't be surprised to find the caliper bolts extremely tight.The front ones on my UK brakes were almost impossibly tight! You can knock them out with a hammer but I wouldn't recommend it as it won't do your wheel bearings any good. I used a slightly modified ball joint separator to squeeze them out, here's a pic. The fork bit has to be opened up a liitle to fit over the stud.The studs are slightly too long to be a good fit in this tool so I cut about 8mm off them with my angle grinder and they then squeezed out very nicely. To pull them in I put them through the hub and then placed a snuggly fitting steel collar over them(about 30mm dia and 20mm deep), this will help you align them squarely before you pull them in with an old nut(good thread though). Not sure which studs you're using but the ones I bought from Trackstore were extremely tight, I actually sheared one off when pulling it in. I had the spline on the stud machined down from 14.35mm to 14.05mm and they were a lovely fit. When I pulled them I used my torque wrench , I wanted to make sure I didn't over stress them which would lead to premature failure. I set the torque wrench to 80 llbsft and pulled them, the wrench clicked and they were fully seated. Like I said I don't know what studs you're using so it's best to be aware that they could be too tight! Anything else, just ask!

Definately not legitimate! Infact this is the most suspicious sales advert for a car that I've ever read!

If you can get the old ones from SilverMachine then give them a coat of silver spray paint, they will look so much better!

Could also use a vaccuum with the small brush attached to suck some of the dirt out, but you would have to be gentle.

No good if you want them now, but Trackstore do them for £1.10 each plus del.

A paper bag will stay inflated , a plastic bag wouldn't.

Do it yourself, much cheaper and you don't have to worry about leaving the car.

Thanks MRX , I've just been looking on the Overclockers forum and got my shortlist down to about 4. The Viewsonic VX912 is one of them , it comes highly recommended. Thanks Shovels, I did consider going for a 19" instead of a 17" but I thought if I spent the same I would probably get a better quality 17", if I went for the 19" I would be paying for the size increase. Not sure really, not many decent shops to go to and compare. I was reading that it's sometimes possible to massage the dead pixels away!

You cannot be serious!

Like Sakura said use a damp cloth to get rid of the dust. Is the filter working okay in the vaccuum cleaner?
