L18msy Posted June 1, 2014 Share Posted June 1, 2014 I was never a fan of the visor spoiler or the bumper pods from pics but now that I have them fitted I really do like them. Having two stock bodied Supras and wanting them to look different is what's driving me towards purchases. I think this car will get a TRD spoiler to finish it off with the MVP earless lip...full yank style! Haha! Thanks for the compliment...I think! I have an MVP lip for fitting mate. Let me know when your free. Just saw your reply mate, give me a shout when it is needing done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Westy Posted June 4, 2014 Author Share Posted June 4, 2014 Dropped the car into JM imports this morning for some work: Gear shaft selector seal - 6 speed manual. Gearbox rear seals - 6 speed manual. Gearbox oil too up with genuine Toyota V160 oil. Coolant System flush. Coolant refill. Speedo conversion reversal due to UK speedo being fitted. Pics to come later.

Westy Posted June 5, 2014 Author Share Posted June 5, 2014 Rear crank seal hadn't turned up!!! So car needs to stay at JM! Such a pain as I've stayed the night to wait on it. Does anyone in the NE have one for a V160 in their spares!? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Westy Posted June 11, 2014 Author Share Posted June 11, 2014 Sorry Michael...it hasn't shown up. Drive back was great, although the Supra did use more fuel for 100 miles than the Primera used for the entire 180 mile trip! The joys!lol!

L18msy Posted June 11, 2014 Share Posted June 11, 2014 There was a bit of trouser movement when I saw that plenum, where did you get that? Need to sort out lip fitting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was a bit of trouser movement when I saw that plenum, where did you get that? Need to sort out lip fitting. I got it off Alex and sent it to the polisher buddy. Came out pretty good.

Westy Posted June 16, 2014 Author Share Posted June 16, 2014 Exhaust has sounded a bit fruity since fitting the polished plenum and TB. TPS sensors have required a little adjusting but it's getting there: Suns out so 1A1 is out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Westy Posted June 23, 2014 Author Share Posted June 23, 2014 Had a great weekend with the car. Headed up to the Scottish modifications department that is the driveway of Liam after work on Friday and finally got my earless MVP style lip fitted. I had ordered a 1/2" drive 10mm socket off eBay last week in the hope that it would turn up and allow me to get my BBS LMs rebuilt but as per it didn't show up. Gutted as I really wanted them on for the Ultimate Scottish Street Car show on Sunday at Crail! But Liam being the man he is he popped back to work and got me the required socket! Legend! This lowered the car so much at the front that when I got home I couldn't even get in my driveway!lol! But someone sorted that with some cold lay tarmac! It was now Saturday lunchtime and I started the tedious process of rebuilding the LMs...faces reverse mounted! Boom!: I was shattered but the car was actually ready and looking the way I wanted for the show. Sunday 22nd I headed up to Glasgow where I met Gordy and Michael for the trip up to Crail where my car squeezed over the grass!!!lol! Gave the car a clean went to watch some of the action on the drag strip. Later on in the day I found out that the car had scooped the Best Modified Trophy and landed me a nice bag of detailing goodies! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
