  1. Hi all, Can anyone tell me where the fuse is for the number plate light? Cheers! IT'S OKAY, I'VE FOUND IT
  2. I just drove the Supra again a couple of weeks ago after a few months off the road and got this when edging forward in traffic - couldn't see anything wrong - however just took it in for MOT and she's failed on a wheel bearing (no knocking round corners though!) so I'll let you know if this fixes the dragging noise.
  3. I had the bright idea of taking her off the road last winter. The disks are just generally pitted and unhappy with sitting in our lovely Scottish snowdrifts
  4. Hi Bob, I have new pads to put in. Just can't afford new disks, she's failed on other stuff too and having just had some really bad financial news I doubt I'll be able to keep her anyway
  5. Anyone got some used J-spec rear disks lying about after an upgrade that they would part with cheaply? Otherwise I may just have to sell my kid to get her through MOT Cheers Morg
  6. Hi all Hubby's just fitted my white dial faces and I'm having problems. Drove to work, all well, and looking awesome. On the way home, speedo not working, rev counter sticking, fuel and temp working fine. Hubby took needles back off and on, went into work, all working. Came home, same again. Wat have we stuffed up??? Cheers Morg
  7. Hi all Where would everyone normally go to buy stock rear disks and pads for a J-Spec TT? Cheers Morg
  8. Depends what mood I'm in. Sometimes I think it's funny. Sometimes it really p*sses me off. Mostly I just think they must have brains the size of a pea. What really gets my goat is when mechanics/car shops look about to fall off their feet when they find out you have an interest in how the thing actually works. It seems they don't mind if you just have a Supe to look pretty in
  9. Hell, just read the post from the beginning, was really that by the end the car would have been recovered. What complete bastards there are out there. No good me looking out for you as I strongly doubt it would ever get as far as Aberdeen, but keeping my fingers crossed you will get it back intact.
  10. It's not that I'm not perfectly capable of doing it. I swapped the engine in my MkIIIT. I just hate brakes. And as I haven't had to do my own for the last 5 years, I thought it would be sensible to get some instructions. In my experience it's always the people who don't like to ask who end up in trouble.
  11. Unfortunately I am now at the point where it's fix her myself or sell her I don't mind doing basic stuff - always hated brakes though. Not many things will kill you if you do it wrong but that will. Hence the paranoia
  12. Hi guys, I know somewhere on there there must be the idiots guide to swapping brake components, but I can't find it. I need to swap calipers, disks and pads on the front and I am missing the existence of a trusty Haynes manual, which is invaluable to paranoid people like me who always think they will stuff something up. In the interests of not putting my baby through a wall at a ton, please could someone send me a link? Cheers Morg
