I have a 2 sets of clips for mats, they are 2 part setups, you trim 2 small holes about the size of a 2p coin in the base of your mat, then there is a sleeve which sits at the back and a 2nd part the clicks in the that sleeve from the front, this leaves you with a small plastic ring, nice and neat, the 2nd part is a small self tapping plastic "nipple" line the 2 holes in the mats up with these then screw them into the carpet, click the plastic mounts in your mat onto the plastic nipples and there you go, mats held securely and neatly, much better looking and more practical than the silly little hook you get from Toyota ;)

I have a set in Cream/beige for the UK owners and a black set, each set contains 4 clips (2 per mat) - £10 each

 

I also have a pair of door cards, missing speaker grilles, a few small marks, come with the grab handles which are mint, ideal for a retrim, carbon/fibreglass template etc. - £30 £25 collected

It looks well made dude but can have no damping effect!!! Who made it and more to the point who used it, if it works ok its a useful bit of kit but untill our engine builder is around on monday I can't ask the questions i need. Maybe whoever used it got away with it because the supra 6 cyl is a very balanced engine anyway.

I'm not sure who made it (though I can probably find out) but it was fitted to my car 6 months ago brand new as at the time I couldn't afford a stock one, I had a stock one fitted last weekend and have noticed no difference to either the vibration problem I have or the performance of the car, leading me to beleive that this pulley was doing a fine job, the stock one weighs a ton compared to it with that balancing mass on the back!

Ive heard that solid pullys are mucho bad news

 

It's not a "Solid" Pulley mate, it's a machined billet one without the weight on the back of it,

I'm not trying to be funny at all here mate but what you said is hardly contructive for my sale is it? ;)

You are exactly right dude, the front harmonic balancer is heavy for a reason and the aftermarket ones like ATI etc are full of a gel type substance, the only reason to lose the stock one is the chance of it coming apart, in fact you cannot use one at a sanctioned drag race!!!!

This is a solid pulley, thats what billet means, machined from a SOLID piece of metal!!! But if its in balance with the crank then I suppose it will work, just can't see it being heavy enough to act as a damper, it is the rubber or the fluid that cancels out the harmonic frequencies in the crank, our engine builder is of the opinion it MAY be ok in a road car but not one that is revved hard etc especially as a 6 cyl does suffer from quite a lot of harmonic unbalance.
