  1. How about replacing with new suspension arms from Toyota, this way you get new ball joints as well. Thats what I've just bought for my car, I wanted to replace the ball joints as well and these are only available with the arms, pain! But they are MUCH cheaper from Japan than they are from the UK. Definately worth doing as the suspension seems to be gettin a bit tired now on the older cars.
  2. I tried an Exedy in a customers car a few months ago, I can safely say its the worst clutch I've ever used, heavy and zon off switch. If you want a decent twin plate go with an OS Giken. Why not just fit an RPS Max series street? That will be well up to the job with the mods you have, unless your planning something in future that is.
  3. Dont look like I can go now, cars coming out the bodyshop Tuesday so the paints going to be a bit fresh! And it'll need a bit of a service after sitting around all winter...
  4. That does, cheers for the help.
  5. Hi chaps, has anyone got an ECU pinout diagram for a VVTi TT?
  6. Yeah I think so, I haven't fitted mine yet so wont know for sure until then. I'll be doing that when my car comes out the bodyshop. Cheers
  7. I've just been informed that SSR wheels have gone bust, woops!
  8. Depends what you mean by big single, many many different sizes available. My Powerhouse stage 1 used to kick in around 3700rpm so very very useable power, the stage 2+ turbo I have kicks in at 4200rpm, again very useable power, makes a for a really nice road car. And the grin will never be removed from your face!
  9. I've got an undertray for it made of fibreglass! I've never fitted one as yet though, I had them made about a year ago and never got round to trying one out properly. Looked like it would fit nice when I offered it up to mine though. If you need one let me know Cheers Paul
  10. Hi mate, depends who you speak to on this subject and who is fitting the bumper, these are made by Whifbitz and know one else as far as I know, hope there isn't anyone else doing them! I know of certain people on this list(not going to name names but they know who they are) who reckon my bumpers dont fit, really strange that as I have a perfect fitting one on my car, my bodyshop fitted one on a car last week and fitted perfectly, blah blah. Depends on who you want to believe and who is trying to sell you something they cant get there hands on. Let me know if you want to own the best looking Supra bumper on the market! Cheers Paul
  11. Hi chaps, Does anyone know the sump plug thread size? Cheers Paul
  12. Should have the ramps installed then as well which will make life a bit easier. Cheers mate, think my life is going to be a bit different soon!
  13. Yeah thanks. Fitted a brand new AVC-R Tuesday and that didn't work at all! Bloody damm things.
  14. Nothing to do with the boost controller as it wasn't producing much boost before the fitment, 0.6 bar I think it was wasn't it Craig?
  15. Alright mate, bring it back after xmas and leave it with me for a day or 2, I'll find the problem dont you worry.
  16. Should be all the same apart from the shocks I think, I'm doing a full suspension rebuild on mine in the next couple of weeks, you wouldn't believe the difference in the prices of the upper/lower arms from Japan to the UK, just a tad cheaper. If you want me to price any of it up give me a shout.
  17. Its good money yep and an easy life as well, thats all his done all his life is play golf, what a life! The Open this year was an amazing experience, I had a players pass so could go anywhere, I was eating my dinner next to Colin Montgomorie, Levet, Faldo, etc. On the practise area I was surrounded by the best golfers in the world, watching them prepare to go out. Bit of an eye opener, hopefully Sean will be there every year from now on! There's so good roads up in Scotland as well!
  18. Yeah, ugly bas**rd aint he.
  19. Aint me, its my brother, he's over there at the mo qualifying for the US golf tour, fingers crossed he'll get through, no idea when or who he'll be flying back with as yet. If he makes it he'll probably have is own private jet before long, in which case I'll stick as many turbos in there as I can!
  20. Cheers mate, your a star, I'll get on to my boys in Japan to get the bits so I can get this car mapped up. Cheers
  21. Alright mate, any luck with that Denso number last night?
  22. Hmmm, sounds like it could be more hassle than its worth eh. Thanks for the info chaps
  23. Does anyone know if a single turbo kit could be taken as hand luggage on a plane from the US?
