  1. Another update on my Supra. We thought it would be a good idea to fit one of our Whifbitz carbon Supra windscreen scuttle panels to the Whifbitz Supra. We still cant believe how good this looks on a Supra, totally updates that area of the car giving it a much more modern look. Plus it looks rather cool being made from carbon fibre with the perfect finish that the product gives. Available to purchase from our online shop here http://www.garagewhifbitz.co.uk/index.php/toyota/supra/whifbitz-carbon.html
  2. The Ridox one is rather hardcore but you'll need a Ridox front bumper to fit it to, http://www.garagewhifbitz.co.uk/index.php/shine-auto-project-1731.html
  3. Twin scroll makes a difference for sure, our manifolds make a big difference in spool up over anything else we've tested over the last 13 years. If you want the ultimate street turbo go with the 60mm Boostlab turbo with a 0.91 ex housing, these are amazing turbos, full boost around 3800rpm and over 700bhp depending on the spec you have.
  4. I'm having them made right now actually, about 8 weeks away from production.
  5. They are indeedy top quality batteries and I've just become an official dealer for them. Give me a shout if you need one.
  6. It all counts yes, the TRD is an improvement over the stock LSD and the OS Giken is an improvement over the TRD. Whatever you get it will be a massive improvement over the standard open type diff you have now!
  7. I can do you a nice deal on an OS Giken Spec X at the moment, I have one available at a special price....this will make a big difference in traction. I went from a TRD diff to the OS and noticed a big difference on the race track, I could get on the power much earlier out of corners. Steve Linton bolted one on his car too, went from a standard LSD to the OS and gained 2 seconds a lap around Snetterton!
  8. As Luc says you need a semi slick tyre to put the power down. The other thing that makes a massive difference to traction is an APR carbon rear wing, it might not be to everyone's taste looks wise but they really do work. My Supra wheel spins all the way through 4th gear without it fitted, bolt it back on and it hooks up in 2nd gear. That's with R888 tyres. Also what diff are you using? As that makes a difference also.
  9. Is it a VVTi Steve, sorry mate, i haven't read your whole thread.
  10. Nice, bet you are happy with that, what an immense street setup that must be, cant get much better than that, the BL366 is great value for money too.
  11. Yep. We tested it against an HKS manifold and gained 500rpm of spool up which is rather a lot!
  12. Very nice Steve, glad to see our manifold and wastegate setup creating a faster spooling engine once again. What turbo was that with exactly?
  13. Like these John, http://www.garagewhifbitz.co.uk/index.php/hks-1375.html?___SID=U?
  14. Sounds like you've connected the fcd up wrongly, we've seen this a lot ok the vvti's, disconnect it and see if it cures the problem.
  15. Never had the need too, we've always data logged all sensors from the engine at many different race tracks and never once did we see any reason to fit a dry sump. If you are running slicks that's a different story though.
  16. Last time I checked it was around 1250kg with low fuel, pretty light for a supra. I have gone to great lengths to do that though, super lightweight one off carbon bootlid, fibreglass doors, I stripped the dash of its foam/vinyl material and flocked it, that saved about 3kg abs removed, etc, etc , all these little things soon add up.
  17. The Bride frames are on my website now http://www.garagewhifbitz.co.uk/index.php/toyota/supra/seats/bride-subframes.html both types listed for lower mount and side mount frames. I will keep the lower mount frames in stock, these fit Recaro, Bride and Cobra seats.
  18. I can get them if needed, email me if you like.
  19. Cheers mate Shroud will be a way off yet though, I'll update you when it is though of course!
  20. Custom made for my car yes, although I do have the drawings for it so can produce them if needed. It would mean ditching your abs though.
