tooquicktostop Posted November 25, 2008 Author Share Posted November 25, 2008 looks very nice. You must be pleased with how its going Dean ? I am, it seems to be coming together now, looking forward to seeing what upping the boost does for the performance because it was flying at 1.2 bar ! Just hope the weather holds out for road mapping ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tooquicktostop Posted November 27, 2008 Author Share Posted November 27, 2008 Mapping on the road? who is mapping it bud? Road mapping yes, only needs the boost turning up and a few tweaks I hope, Paul is mapping for it me with Darren I think ?, the car has been mapped a couple of times before on the RR Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tooquicktostop Posted December 2, 2008 Author Share Posted December 2, 2008 Some mapping took place today, not easy on the road with the current weather Paul thinks there is plenty more to come once the weather is better, but the car is up to 1.5bar now Going back in few weeks for UK rear brakes, 4 wheel alignment, perhaps some new seats and a set of R888's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Whiffin Posted December 2, 2008 Share Posted December 2, 2008 Its getting there mate, shame its a bad time of year to do road mapping! It was only 2 degrees this morning, greasy roads + 600bhp and it becomes a tad difficult! A set of tyres and a wheel alignment will transform the way it feels, I think you'll be surprised the difference it makes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamieP Posted December 2, 2008 Share Posted December 2, 2008 Nice one, bet its feeling fast now at 1.5bar, any plans to get it on the dyno? be good to see what its doing now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steady_dave Posted December 2, 2008 Share Posted December 2, 2008 (edited) I'm so impressed by the work done. Sorry about the post, bit of a newbie to all this. Thought I knew a lot about Supra's but the knowledge of people on here has made me re-think and also made me glad I joined. Think I'll be popping round to see you at some time Paul, nice work!

Will get it on the Dyno on the back of one of Ryan's mapping sessions perhaps, when are you down at SRR Jamie, I could bring it along Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds even better, I do hate watching it on the RR though SRR trip would be good for the " benchmark " number as it seems to be the most used on here anyhow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its not arranged yet but will be soon. They'll be about 8 Supra's from stock up to mine, which I'll be turning up to see what it can do.

A set of tyres and a wheel alignment will transform the way it feels, I think you'll be surprised the difference it makes. Road mapping a customers car in this weather . With all the grit on the road and the conditions of the roads this time of year i honestly think its mad and abit shocked Dean is happy with it TBH. Dyno costs are roughly about £70 an hour in the south and you would use that amount in the extra fuel needed and other parts like brake pads, tyres etc when road mapping.

Ryan And thats why we didn't do it because of this reason, we're not bonkers. Brakes pads? Tyres? Yes we wear a set of pads and tyres out with every mapping session, I dont think so.

JamieP Posted December 2, 2008 Share Posted December 2, 2008 Id say Ryan's reply is because of this post.
