Supra2jze Posted May 19, 2015 Share Posted May 19, 2015 Hi all, Just need some guidance, a 'Service A' is due on the Supra & I think it's time the cambelt is replaced. Just rang Toyota Stockport & they're going to ring me back to give me a quote. Lady on the phone has worked at Toyota for 25 years & said she's never dealt with a customer with a Supra before (apart from one in Bradbury when it was called in) to which I replied... I'll be your first! Just wondering where the rest of the North West Supra guys go for a service/cambelt replacement?? Thanks Usman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

supra_ufo Posted May 19, 2015 Share Posted May 19, 2015 speak to Martin "Kirk" on here, not a trader but knows his way around a supra and can do that job no issues. He is from near Oldham/Manchester. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I live just off Gatley. I literally would of been 5 mins up the road from you (Kingsway, East Didsbury) Ahh, no worries will give you the thumbs up when I get the car on the road.

Chris Wilson Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 Ha, how small a world. if you go down Kingsway to Gatley Road traffic lights and turn right for Gatley village I was in the first house on the right, with a bus shelter outside. I have had fifteen cars and a truck on that drive! The neighbours loved me.... Kingsway was where I first saw 100 MPH in a car, decades ago, when my dad came home with a new motor. Before the smokeless zones Kingsway occasionally got so foggy I remember holding a torch out of the passenger window, telling my father how far off the kerb we were. Now you just get diesel fumes and take away smoke and smells The traffic at Kingsway lights just got too much, I am out in the sticks now. Still got about 15 cars and a truck on the drive though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still got about 15 cars and a truck on the drive though Yeah tell me about it. We could've had regular Supra meets, and a mini drag race down the dual carriageway Starting from from Tesco Didsbury lights, right the way down to Shell on Kingsway Yes, and traffic is still busy. I live 2 mins from the Shell garage (in-between Shell & just before the lights as you come down the hill) Which begs the question, was it you that use to drive occasionally in a white Supra down Kingsway?! As that's the only ever one I use to see as a youngster. Edited May 20, 2015 by Supra2jze (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
