Yeah but the mx5 looks gay in any colour!!

Hopefully halfords will have one but if not I may take you up on that fella. Good man.

If I can get a battery sorted tomorrow I should be there

I'll call you when we're five mins away fella.

Is it just me or is this getting boring now.

Get it pumped up and and push against both sidewalls mine was very soft on the inside but fine on the outside if in doubt get it to somewhere like ATS as they usually check things for free.

Mate same thing just happened to mine. When I checked the pressures a few weeks back the rear left was low so checked it and found a screw in the tread. Took it to kwik fit to see if it was worth repairing and they pointed out the sidewall had softened and bubbled:shock: Replaced it straight away, cant take chances with tyres fella but as said before I think you should go back and ask for a refund/replacement.

Lets face it you can make any car go faster than the next car if youre willing to chuck enough money at it but it will still be the same car.................... An MX-5:D :D

Being the good man that I am, I said I would fit the oth er halfs Grandmothers discs + pads. It is a 1990 starlet 1.0 with 50,000 genuine miles on it and it seems the discs(originals?) are rusted on and will not budge. there are no grub screws holding them on so its not that. What is the best way of releasing them.

Count me in, lets hope for the same weather as the last one:)

Funny you should say that, as I drove past he started looking away from me as though he had'nt noticed. Well you dont tend to notice a supra going past with a nur spec on song I suppose:)

Heres my offering of the day.

I think we should have a new section in multimedia for horrendous looking cars like this. I know there is the barryboys website but it would be good to show our own sightings on here.

Still waiting to find out whether they clear UK brakes though!!

No they are sparco's same as mine, not sure of the model though fella

Sky quoted me happy today £740 with pncb and guaranteed value may try a few more tomorrow but already quite happy with that:)

I better keep an eye on mine then next time we are at the same meet!!

Yeah check them out fella as I have the same wheels as you and also fancy the larger brakes.

Never mind just found it!!! brakeparts.co.uk if anyone is interested.

Any one know of the site that sells pads discs etc online that shows diagrams of the pad shapes. It has been mentioned on here before but I cant find it, they also sell refurbed calipers Thanks in advance Dave

Got my renewal from Tescos the other day for £672 thought this was OK so decided to stay with them. Phoned them tonight and they went through the details and said they have got it down as a 86-89 supra. I pointed it out that I have been with them for the past two terms and each time was assured that it was down as a 94 supra sz. He said it was their mistake and re calculated my premium as £1200 odd!! He told me as it was an import sz it is more expensive as it most likely has more power than the UK version Looks like a call to Sky is on the agenda tomorrow oh yes and a race with a few of you UK slow boys:D . Have heard of this happening before so it might be worth checking your policy if you are with Tesco's.

Thought I'd get to this but my car still needs sorting and my mates skyline just went down to RK tuning as its also fooked so cant go with him.
