    Wow!!!

    I'm thinking every new Supra owner will unintentionally loose the backend a couple of times in the first month or so, no matter how careful they are trying to be! I did!
  2. Just bought a tin of Halfrauds 'Caliper Paint' in blue. Drove home, looking forward to some caliper painting action. And I fell over at the first hurdle. B@ll@x. Can't even get the wheels off! The nuts are so damn tight I can't loosen them!
  3. Got mine today. Looks great! Thanks Liam.
  4. So it is! Sorry, somehow I completely missed that picture!
  5. Xenon was okay. Xenon 2 was outstanding! Bring on the Super Nashwan power.
  6. Remember the trousers thing on IK+? What a great game! I've still got a couple of Amigas for nostalgia value. And a copy of IK+.
  7. I'm Reading (at the moment anyway). Black is definately my favourite colour for the Supe.
  8. Exited onto M4. I was in the silver Veilside. It's always nice to spot another Supra before starting work in the morning. Sets me up for a great day...
  9. I miss my air conditioning.
  10. I was paying about £650 on a TT with Elephant (28, FNCD). I then declared the body kit and the wheels and the premium went up by over £100. Unfortunately, although the premium went up, Elephant won't replace modified components. They'll only replace with stock parts. So, you need to be a bit careful! So I will be looking elsewhere when my renewal comes up.
  11. Was it this morning? I was heading south from about 9 till 11.
  12. Mr Red was the first of four Supra spots for me today! Dammit, I think my car is becoming common! Lucky I've got the rare silver... just like the other three I spotted today.
  13. I didn't know Supes came that new. I thought they stopped making them years ago!?? Am I completely wrong? If there's such a thing as a 2002 Supe, I might have to start saving my 20K!
  14. I've got the Nur spec and a single decat and I was thinking of taking out the front cat too. But I don't want it to get much louder! Is there anyway of preventing this?
  15. Mine's the same. Louder spooling (kind of a whistle) when it's cold. I never boot it when it's cold, but even so, it's kind of hard to drive without #1 spooling at all. Paul K has driven my car and he hasn't expressed any concern.
  16. Ooh, I think I'd like a set too!
  17. Ta. Black does look very nice. Better than I would have expected. The stickers make all the difference.
  18. Hey, what do you think about blue calipers on a silver car? I like red, but I was thinking about trying something different.
  19. Dude, sorry to hear about accident. It was a nice looking bonnet too. Still, it could have been much worse. I remember about ten years ago when the bonnet on my mum's Cavalier flew open at 80 on the outside lane of the M4. I was sat in the back and was the only person who had any sort of visibility. I could see a tiny gap at the base of the window and had to navigate my mum onto the hard shoulder. She was in hysterics and screaming. The bonnet cracked the windscreen and wrapped itself around the roof of the car. The damage was so signficant (and the car worth very little despite it's good former condition) that the insurers considered it a right-off. I've been paranoid about bonnet catches ever since!
  20. Looking good mate! I've been thinking about doing this to mine for ages. Now I've seen what a good job can be done with a paint brush, I'm off to buy some Hammerite!
  21. Yeah, I've got the HKS and it's... understated. I know a geezer that visits the Miami GT unit quite a lot. He's got an MR2 with a TurboXS BOV. I'm pretty sure it's the Type H-RFL. Allegedly, it's the loudest BOV you can get and IT REALLY IS LOUD! If you want noise, I think you need to check these out.
  22. My first try was a badminton racket... Took 17 guesses. Freaky. It seems I'm unwise and the force isn't even remotely strong with me.
  23. I've been laughing at this for the last 10 minutes. It's absolutely brilliant. I love the laminate floor spoiler. This guy has a great sense of humour. Do you think he'd swap for a Supe?
