Phlukey Posted September 29, 2014 Author Share Posted September 29, 2014 The Sup isn't my daily Chris, so that's probably why you haven't seen it about. Don't think my OCD could handle it being left on its own in a car park lol Should see you and your new Sup at a Bluewater meet next year hopefully mate. Jacks upgrade the synchros to a revised stronger design and can also upgrade the forks for threaded ones with a stage 2 or 3 rebuild Jazz.

Phlukey Posted September 29, 2014 Author Share Posted September 29, 2014 Cool. Whereabouts in Kent do you live then Chris? If you see some random loon flashing their lights at you in Ashford, then it's probably me lol Had a look at some pics of your new Sup.... Very nice I like what Hassan has done with painting the front pillars black. Not seen that before and it looks quite up to date (similar to what you see on R35's etc.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris6t9 Posted September 30, 2014 Share Posted September 30, 2014 In maidstone, but most of my mates I see live in ashford so im down there a fair bit. Lol! What car will you be in? I do love whats been done. Its just as id like it apart from a few minor things really. Not sure if I should put a trd wing on the back! Really cannot decide! Wheels are going gloss black soon too. Might look to get racelogic aswell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phlukey Posted September 30, 2014 Author Share Posted September 30, 2014 (edited) Cool, you're quite close then Chris. I'm out your way quite a lot too, as my girlfriend lives in Lordswood. If I'm not in the Supra, then I'll either be in a grey ZS180 or a gold 350Z or possibly on a motorbike lol. I like the TRD and standard wings myself, but all down to personal preference really. I must admit that my tastes have changed a bit over time, as my first Supra had a full Veilside kit with over fenders and BGW and I loved top secret GT300 widebody cars. Now I'm tending to prefer the more subtle look of stock body and TRD widebody cars....... Must be getting old lol PS... Will be good to have someone who lives close to drive to Bluewater meets with Edited September 30, 2014 by Phlukey (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phlukey Posted September 30, 2014 Author Share Posted September 30, 2014 Cool, there may end up being a trio of us then, as my friend from Tenterden who bought my old Supra came up with me last time when I went in my 350Z Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrboomberang Posted October 26, 2014 Share Posted October 26, 2014 If you don't mind me asking how much were your headlights? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaan W Posted October 26, 2014 Share Posted October 26, 2014 Ooo nice, I do like those headlights on white cars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phlukey Posted October 26, 2014 Author Share Posted October 26, 2014 Worked out at approx. £600 for the pair mrboomberang. One came from Japan and the other was sourced from Belgium (yes they are both for a RH drive car lol) I know it's a lot for lights, but they are brand new and genuine Toyota and I couldn't be bothered to wait for a mint second hand pair to come up. I think you'd probably get them a lot cheaper second hand if you were willing to wait or weren't too concerned about any minor cosmetic issues. Cheers Luc / Kaan. Can't wait to get em on. Should go well with the face lift rear clusters and give the car a fresh up to date look Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phlukey Posted November 7, 2014 Author Share Posted November 7, 2014 Not long now Luc! As soon as the divided T4 option is available I'm having one, as I'm sure you are too. The test data looks great! 67mm-esque spool characteristics with better power output than a 7175. Definitely a game changer of a turbo What A/R housing are you going for Luc? Transmission is on it's way back to the UK from Jacks now too. Upgraded to a stage 3 build in the end which is why it took a bit longer. It was only a few hundred dollars extra and I've read good things from others who've had their rebuild done to this level, so I thought why not while it's over there and in bits lol. They are sending me pics of the rebuild process, so I'll put some up when I receive them so people can see what goes in to the stage 3 rebuild.

Phlukey Posted November 8, 2014 Author Share Posted November 8, 2014 Just got the photos through of my stage 3 gearbox rebuild that was done at Jacks Transmissions and all I can say is WOW! The box honestly looks like brand new now and the level of detail that's gone into the build is amazing. I highly recommend Jacks to anyone looking to freshen up their V160 or V161. Can't wait to get it back in the Sup and try it out now. I've read that apparently the ISF REM micro polishing that is done on the gears for a stage 3 build make shifts feel as smooth as a hot knife through butter Here's a link to the photos: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/3n72j6k2viaahfj/AABZyOEbdPhp2qEZik6BKSvDa?dl=0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
