Recommended Posts

I rent a unit with another supra owner and luckily the rest of the guys there are into motorsport...track, hillclimb,bangor racing and drifting.

They all do their own work and we have access to tools, ramp and plenty of advice lol

 

Im crap on the tools so need all the help i can get:D

 

 

This will be amazing when it's finished! Good luck mate!

 

Where do you do a job like this?? Do you have a big garage or friends in the right places or what?? I want to be able to do more of my car myself, but I only have my (dad's) driveway, so my time is limited by the weather and by how long I can keep my car in pieces before my dad gets pissed off with me using up the driveway! :( Any suggestions???

Fair play dude, you dont do things by half. The direction of this has changed so much. But it's all good:)

 

Sorry I've not been over for a couple of weeks, with the supe being off the road and over at my parents the 8 mile trip may as well be 8000 miles:d Hopefully hel wont be needing her car for the day soon so should be able to get over.

I won't be using a Billet 7175 anymore....after months of waiting and then being sent the wrong housing they have decided that they can't supply a twin scroll housing to fit my turbo:rolleyes:

NOT IMPRESSED!!
