what endless you have sss - ccx, if its the sss they might fade under heat, what about brake line's you need braided or they will be the first thing to stop you braking hard.

 

 

Yes they are ccx pads and I am fitting the braided lines next weekend ;)

Just had an idea today, How about us having a strip across the windsceen saying Mkivsupra.net Ring09 j1mb0b1. And so on with each of us having our member names on the windscreen maybe have the supra logo as is on our T shirts aswell ?, There is a place down road from me that can do these at good price not much at all.

 

I went last year in my Impreza and we had this on the windscreen, We also had the little British flag that you can see on the right handside of the window.

Hell they seem even more strict than last year, what with henk getting banned for his wheel nearly falling off and me getting a ban for speeding, better me on our best behavour guy`s;), oh also i like the skyline forum background being dark, its really easy on the eyes don`t you think.

dude like i said in your thread, if you have overfilled the oil empty it and then fill it up again to the the maxiumum line on the dipstick! but if your gonna tackle the stem seals and you have no idea what your doing then i suggest gettin help of someone who knows what there doing! if you mess up bad things will happen!

I over filled mine and then did a trackday at donnington, within 3 laps my ssbv was blowing oil out, i pulled in and drained about a litre off, seemed ok for about 20 mins then i came in for some fuel and noticed i had a pool of oil under the car, as i reversed to see what was going on it followed me back, putting 2 much oil in had also blown the front crank seal and had put more pressure on the pump, since this i had to change the oil pump and thats not a nice job.
