Guest disrupta Posted August 29, 2005 Share Posted August 29, 2005 Hi, just thought id bother you with a few more questions 1) When i pick my J tt supra up on Wedensday, i want to book the car in to have a new timming belt fitted, as im buying the car from a garage and the fella does not know when the previous owner changed it last 63 k on the clock, can i just book it into any garage and will they be able to order a new belt any hassle, also will i need cam followers aswell ? and finally any rough price on this job. 2) Brake pads, do i need to order these from Japan or can any garage order a set for me thanks Michael Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kopite Posted August 29, 2005 Share Posted August 29, 2005 If you're in Newcastle mate, best to get yourself upto Envy as they specialise in Supras. Give Gaz or Kev a call on 01670-823333 and they'll look after ya Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
merckx Posted August 29, 2005 Share Posted August 29, 2005 also will i need cam followers aswell ? Michael No! Like Kopite says , Envy will sort you out. All parts available from your local Toyota dealer, wouldn't think they're any better at fitting them than a specialist garage though.

Homer Posted August 29, 2005 Share Posted August 29, 2005 Judging by your post you might not clued up on Supra Mechanics or servicing (No offence intended!), I think you're best off getting the car to a well known Supra specialist. Envy are the obvious choice seeing as they are local-ish to Newcastle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carl0s Posted August 29, 2005 Share Posted August 29, 2005 The engine is non-interference BTW, so if the timing belt breaks, it's merely an inconvenience. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
