  1. I had a gps one a few years ago but it stopped working and I've forgotten why. It had it's own sim card and telephone number so you could ring it up and it would respond by giving you it's longitude and latitude which was very accurate. It also had a speaker and mic in the car so you could communicate with whoever was in the car. You could also disable the car remotely.
  2. On the website that Andy linked to above there's compatibility information - automotive brake fluid. http://www.metric-seals.com/compatibility.htm
  3. A search may turn something up as I remember a couple of years ago someone on here was looking for the same seals. The link that Andy just posted looks like they'll have some.
  4. I can't understand where you mean? http://img506.imageshack.us/img506/2633/032800088xt.jpg
  5. I would just get the power steering stuff, I'll be all good quality and it's £1 cheaper too.

    Evening all

    Hello. Not another Scot.
  7. http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showpost.php?p=1118778&postcount=7 You've got to make sure that all the hose connections are good as you want the turbo pressure sensor to keep reading the correct boost. I've got no idea how your boost controller is connected, the above is for plumbing it into a car that has no other extra connections at that point.
  8. Easier said than done. I suppose a little experience especially on the track would give one the confidence to do this unless you want to practice on the roads.
  9. It's not very clear what you've done.
  10. Their website doesn't give an address but I found a Banzai Motors in North Shields? That looks like a home address? https://www.fsa.gov.uk/register/firmBasicDetails.do;jsessionid=abb7a7337f9248be8adab05ced411c5a.s6fNml1Ka38InBbv-ArJrwTPoNCNa30Ocybtah0IaNuIahiIbh0IaNfwmxiInxiObk9ynhvybMSHc30Ka2aToi5hch0Na2TSn7bvq70KawTAqQ4InQXQ-BjF8NaNbxiQb2bMnkrDqRfzqwbMnkrDqRfzqwbynknvrkLOlQzNp65In0__?sid=133285 16 Wenlock Drive Preston Grange North Shields Tyne And Wear NE29 9HD
  11. The manual is about 1/3 of the way down. It doesn't show a yellow wire though. http://www.greddy.com/tech/
  12. lol I've just realised that this thread was started five years ago. http://www.halfords.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/product_storeId_10001_catalogId_10151_productId_217518_langId_-1_categoryId_90877#

    It's the first time I've used this smilie.
  14. Have you removed the pads before, it's just that the long pins that hold them in place can be seized. I had to replace mine after cutting and hammering the old ones out.

    More like confidence rather than arrogance I would say.
  16. Yes. You just need to consider the max boost you'll be running and not how often you'll be driving at lower boost levels.
  17. The overhaul kit just includes what you need for installing the pistons back into the calipers. 47389-24010 Gasket for flexible hose You'll need two gaskets for each caliper, I don't know how many you'll get in a pack at Toyota or if you need to order eight times the part number above. No problem pushing the car with calipers removed, I sometimes just put a brick or a chock a few feet infront of the wheel so it doesn't move too far and damage something. I don't think the Supra has screws holding the brake discs on the hub, so when you remove the caliper/pads there'll be nothing holding the discs in place until you put the wheels back on apart from maybe a little rust.
  18. Hello. Auto v Manual What to look for I've never driven a NA Supra.
  19. I voted idiot, he's nearer that than a genius. He knows how to make easy money though.

    What a surprise. How did you feel about Schumacher?

  22. 150 isn't fast enough?
  23. I see what you mean about the rear. I think the fins look too bulky, I would only have them coming down maybe 70mm and give them a 45 degree profile. A matt black finish too.
