Paul grow up and get on with your build mate your a sarcastic little man

So good luck to you mate

 

sarcastic! me never:innocent:, i was pointing out your earlier comment .oh god,which wasn't sarcastic? was it?:taped: and the false info that you were doing your own work but as you may gather all you have done is stick your nose in and then continue to do so!

 

with regards to ti4ppa's knowledge it has just got better and will continue to.

 

all be it with a pain in the rear kit i had given him, if some one else has same probs he will be able

to help so i see that as plus..

 

i do not wish to continue with- tit for tat- it has got a tad carried away so lets just agree to disagree..

Wow jerks.

 

 

,

Maybe if someone had come on here and asked which way round the head gasket went my car wouldn't have been broken to near on scap value.

 

And that was from someone that had worked for Toyota and by all accounts knew a shed old about supras. Bringing money up is just plain disgusting.

 

I've meet people working on a shoe string to people spending 10s of thousands and you know what they are all good people

 

This really isn't what this place is about

 

 

Your both as bad as one another in this case

Well I took the window cleaner thing as a insult as it come across as you was say I'm just a window cleaner that your above me wich I find insulting hence why I said about the money as I was angry and yes I did say oh dear as for some one to take some else's car to do a job to then not know what to do is worrying people just didn't want you to get your car messed up but hey I cba to argue anymore tbh good luck with the build

Just my 2p... Personally I think the way some people have reacted regarding this question is disgusting... I am a supra noob in the process of a build and will be learning as I go. Judging by the response received here I am hesitant to ask technical questions in the future now. That said, is one of the reasons I am on here!

 

This was suppose to be a place of knowledge and assistance with support from members.. regardless of how much someone knows. Rather ask a question and be safe than make an error. I understand the concern for the build however THE QUESTION WAS ASKED... no need to get personal & ugly! I am sure any other uncertainties would have been asked at the same time.

Thanks for the vid Luxluc :)

 

@r0cknr0lla :

 

I'm also a noob in Supra's and the turbocharged engines, but is really interesting for me.

 

But I think you don't have to be hesitant by asking questions (here or somewhere else), there is no idiot questions as long as you are arguing why you think smth could be done in such a way...

 

This was not the case for this thread so this is why (I think) such answers has been given...

 

Good luck with the build T14PPA, wish I could be at your place !

No question is to stupid to ask.yes you may get a sarcastic reply thats life with an open forum.what i do notice on here are alot is when you ask a technical question you can wait days for a reply. Yet were debating the price of bread.how long each others arn pit hair is etc and bitching at sales ads.... Lets get the love back.

You should never feel hesitant to ask questions.

 

The response by people is because someone is doing a build for themselves and don't know, it's the fact that the op is building this build for someone else.

Hence why people are worried and saying you should know.

 

If you were to ever put up a question, I'm 100% sure you will not be slated for it.

 

There may be sarcasm, but that's the way this forum is lol

Jeez, some folk have thin skins ;) I have asked some electronic RF questions on US forums and been slated from pillar to post as a thick Limy, a probable thick (insert N word), dangerous to be let loose around more than a 1.5 volt battery, God knows what :) Some folks get all excitable when they have a much better grasp of a specialist subject than that of the question asker. They can't resist having a poke. It's human nature I suppose. I just laugh, we all have to learn somewhere. I think what got some folks uppitty is it sounded like you were doing a paid job on someone's car, and were perhaps not yet knowledgeable enough to be attempting that. Not sure if that's the situation or not, and frankly that's between you and the car owner. I always try and answer questions without offence. Mainly I hope I succeed, sometimes "human nature" gets the better of me ;)

Actually I had a proper look at the photos yesterday, and you have a done a beautiful job. It looks stunning! The aftermarket ECU's flexibility is the saving grace, a bit of extra air leakage past the TB butterfly hasn't turned out to be an issue in this case. I am always happy to help, except when I am in the pub ;)

Thanks alot chris. Appreciate the comment. As i said before i knew it couldnt be blanked i was just hoping for other ideas as at the time i was out of ideas. But maybe my wording should have been different. But people just get straight at your throat. Thanks again
