  1. There is every chance these are not gypsies, pikeys or whatever you want to call them Welcome back, good luck in lasting til the end of the day. I dont care what they are called. They came onto my property and stole from me. Gypsies are well known for this (and a penchant for 'dags')
  2. Just feel i need to get this off my chest, no doubt ill feel better once iv ranted! Last Thursday our boiler was condemned and had the gas supply removed. Week without hot water or heating. Not great. British Gas engineers arrive Wednesday this week to remove old and replace with new. Not often i immediately dislike someone, but this guy was a cock. On removing the old boiler they 'only left it outside for 5 mins before some pikeys knicked it' the area we live in is very nice, rarely get gypsies round here. Then we have 3 more pikeys down around the back of the house 'do we have any scrap?' Today i find that they have been here overnight and stolen some alloys i was going to fit to my Range Rover. And thats pretty much it. But now im wondering what the hell to do. Do i have to change all the house security? There is a 6 foot wall that they must have come over. CCTV time i think.
  3. Josh, dont buy parts for the Supra from ebay. Theres a good lad. Whifbitz or 2nd hand parts from our classifieds.
  4. EBC can only increase boost, but full BPU will be at a safe 1.2 bar without it. EBC cant lower boost.
  5. True as that may be its just a CF layer on FRP, and all just a bit too stripey sometimes. Obviously down to personal taste but seems like a lot of effort to go to so you can match the bonnet. Doesnt give any benefit apart from looks. Just saying, thats all.
  6. Maybe a bit too much fake carbon for one car?
  7. I wouldnt think it would be a ful retro fit Scott, it would just need the stalk relocating thats all. The wiring loom will be present on Mr Dunks car.
  8. These are standard clamps, they have been chromed but it has peeled off them. Would ideally need to be rechromed. £15 incl post.
  9. You will save a bit by not fitting an EBC. You dont really need one normally on BPU.
  10. I just sold one for £50 just as a guide for the offerers.
  11. Just the gasket now. Brand new and £15 posted - cheaper than ebay Good for use on single to combat high intake temps.
  12. Bump. Just put these on ebay, might do them slightly cheaper to members http://shop.ebay.co.uk/robsupra1980/m.html?_nkw=&_armrs=1&_from=&_ipg=
  13. You just need the part number when ordering from Toyota
  14. What kind of Dyno is at Garage 786? IIRC its a pretty accurate Dyno Dynamics. Ash is also a nice bloke
  15. Either way, its used on my car for 3 years as TT (into the 2nd turbo exh housing itself and also on my single build in runner 6 during dyno and all fine.
  16. Crikey, your prices have gone up. I remember when you used to do it for £3 to cover the fuel, for the love of doing it
  17. Yeah iv never been asked to prove NCB before but my most recent insurer needed it. Right hassle!
  18. The thread was started in 2002 when warranty considerations were (probably) important. Now? Not so much. Additionally, no cheap plugs were available at that time. Only the HKS ones. Nobody had a clue where the oil fillers were and it was suspected the braking system used extra virgin sweat and witchcraft
