Peter P Posted June 21, 2012 Share Posted June 21, 2012 From speaking with Paul, the secondhand pair of j-spec turbo's haven't been fitted or tested yet? They will be fitted next week to see if that gets both turbo's working properly. All I will say Chris is your Dad's car is in the right hands. Paul and Darren have been doing this for years for a good reason mate, they know their Supra's! I'm sure it'll be sorted soon fella, just need to let them do their thing.

Peter P Posted June 21, 2012 Share Posted June 21, 2012 Just be grateful you aren't paying the bills mate! lol. No seriously, when my bottom end started knocking on my UK spec a few years back, I was gutted to say the least! Paul & Darren sorted out a good recon lump and an awesome budget single kit for me, car was awesome after that (think the guy who bought it off me has only had to do routine servicing and a fresh battery!). Hybrids are IMO bad news most of the time. You never know precisely what was done to them, & by whom (unless you get invoices). It should be interesting to see how it gets on with the secondhand j-spec's. Chin up though, it'll get sorted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Hey John, As I said to Chris, Paul & Darren should get to the bottom of your issues pretty soon I reckon. Hybrids are difficult to fully understand, as firms customise them in all manner of ways. Using a stock set of j-specs should be a good test. I was talking to Paul about the next steps for mine as it happens. Hoping to get a few more bits done very soon (just finalising the sale of my Navara, so funds should be available soon hopefully!). It'll get sorted mate, most of us have been where you are at some point, but once it's solved, you'll forget the whole thing ever happened! Lol. Thinking about it, that could have something to do with the insane, rapid spooling single conversion and 1.8 bar boost I was running!! I'll get there again one day!

Abz Posted June 23, 2012 Share Posted June 23, 2012 A dam hero One day i will grace you all and turn up, but my car is still off the road and i still dont like 74% of you. A bless in disguise, I hope I am in that 74% The day you turn up will be the day... we change the floor we meet on! I am not sure I'll be there peeps, it is the night before SantaPod and with a super early start I need my beauty sleep. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Graham1984 Posted June 23, 2012 Share Posted June 23, 2012 I am not sure I'll be there peeps, it is the night before SantaPod and with a super early start I need my beauty sleep. I saw a photo of you Abz and you really do need your sleep, I suggest you sleep from now until suprapod and maybe just maybe you wont resemble a car wreck. Afternoon everyone anyway Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
letmeshowyou Posted June 23, 2012 Share Posted June 23, 2012 its a long drive you will want some zzzzzz's There will be plenty of time to catch up with my sleep when the N/A's are on the drag strip (Lakeside meeting; yes if Supra is ready, no if not. No way the mondeo could keep up with you guys!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
