That really surprises me, I'd have thought it would have been really busy. Guess the world cup has put a few people off, that and they must have heard I wasn't coming.

Hey

Mine was the NA and it was great to meet a few new faces (and some old one's). I have a banner for our section for next time and promise to have the tanks filled for a bit of the fun stuff.

Managed to get a couple of others to sign up for JAE too.

Shame I can't make it this year....... :innocent:

@RobSupra - a few of us try and meet initially at 6pm at the Shell petrol station at the Haydock Island turnoff which is a couple of junctions before Mascrat. If not, then 6.30pm at Mascrat usually gets you a good spot along with the others at the far end of the car park.

@rob wild - cheers, it was all work really, but was nice to go somewhere i hadn't been before, i.e. Boston. Food was ace :D Had a huge mall over the road from the hotel & the temp finished up about 90 for the remainder of the week! Spent the last day by the pool getting burnt, which was so much like being on holiday, we immediately booked a hol as soon as i got back!

Big thanks to Rob for all the techical advice, like i said im sure ill be pestering you with questions over the next month or so.

Good to meet a few new faces: Matt, Carlos, Babe, Rob, Darren and also to meet all the usual crowd, its been a while since ive been down there so good to see/catch up with you all.

Was gonna mention something about Dodgy's daughter but ill leave it up to Matt :p

Took a few photos but then the battery ran out in my camera so that will have to do.

I had a great time. Nice to see people again and almost remember some names. Thanks Mike for helping me along there.
I especially enjoyed the motorway 'cruising' on the way back :D

Pixelfill
10-07-06, 23:44
It was good to see everyone, and yes a fantastic turn out. Nice to meet some new faces, Darren and Babe. I'm really looking forward to meeting more new cars (and owners) at JAE now :D

The motorway cruise was good, but only served to highlight my lack of boost, nasty noises coming from my engine bay, but some very nice noises coming from Gaz' and Carl0s' cars both of which sound awesome on full chat. I've got to say that even on WOT Wez' is still near silent, how, why :think:?

Needless to say I'm sure both Gaz and Wez had some fun with a Rex on the way home, unfortunately I couldn't play, so lost you both.

Keep your eyes peeled for a question about boost/turbos in a technical forum near you soon.

Ah well, I'll be getting the kit on her soon enough so it'll sure grab peoples attention then! Just gotta wait for the guy to spray and fit it!

On a different note, how nice was the blue Skyline, you know the one I mean. Gorgeous, stunning, exceptional would be some words I'd choose to describe it.

the motorway cruise was brilliant

i did however lose my bottle at one point and then decided not to go above a certain speed again after that!

@Carlos - i hope mine is still pulling as strong as that at 100k+ miles!

that Rex was well up for too & he is even more insane than us! once i reached my limit i kept backing off & then he'd catch & keep going! i'd love to know what spec he was running

nice to see you all :) look forward to next month since i'll miss out on JAE/TOTB :(

@Gaz - i like the way you saved the best pic till last ;)

ooo that sounds like fun Iain, when are you thinking? and where, Squires Gate, Bloomfield Road, or that indoor one above the arcades? there's also Trax on the docks in Preston, they've got a pretty mean setup with some decent Karts and a pretty good track.

Count me in mateys as i ain't been yet and wouldn't mind being able to put names to faces :d not to far from home either :p

For those of you who haven't been before I've created a sticky thread with maps (http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?p=957511) and information, with a link to the current months thread (this one at the moment). I've also archived previous months' threads to a "Previously on Mascrat Manor" (http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?t=77467) thread, there are links to each individual month from the information page

Hope that this is helpful

if you get a call from them saying it doesn't fit, it's because the front impact bar usually needs to be removed to allow it to fit

look forward to seeing it

I guess that's a suitable excuse. Let me know if you need a hand at all. Not very mechanically minded but if you need a bit of muscle or just a second set of hands at any point, just give me a bell. May need your services in a few weeks so offering a favour up front :d

YEah you can have a good look over mine if you want. Another thing i might bug you for if looking over my AFR gauge and readings. Got it all set up but not sure its reading right, either that or its running lean, which it shouldnt be having just been mapped right.
The favour i may need, if you have ever done it is taking the throttle body and intake mani off as ive bought my first bit of bling to go in. Normally would wait until winter as thats when the rest is getting done but ive bought it on an exchange basis so need to send mine off.

Cool thanks. Well have you got a laptop?, just thinking would be a good idea to connect your Wideband to a laptop and do a run on non boost and Boost over a couple of sprits etc. If not i could bring my laptop and stuff down and we could use that to plot it etc. What is the AFR at full boost?

No problem matey just give me a shout if you need a hand fitting the your bling throttle body you flash git :D

Not got a laptop and tbh ive not wired up a connector onto the wires yet. May buy one this weekend and do it. On full boost it seems to drop to about 10.odd, when just cruising, mid revs its around 13 and when foot off pedal altogether it goes off the scale into red. Ill take you out for a spin on Monday and have a look see what you think.

13-08-06, 22:02
Hi, you'll be very welcome to come along.

It's an opportunity to meet up with members (read that as friends) and chew the fat, and I'm not talking about the food which is generally good. Discuss any issues you might be having with your car, ask questions, and look at other cars for inspiration.

There are also plenty of other marques of car there too so it's of general interest to people who like cars.

Let us know whether you'll be meeting us there, or at Haydock Island beforehand

Hi Pixelfill - in reply to your post in another thread, we will try and make it tomorrow.
Only thing is, we're back in work tomorrow after a week off :( so depends how tired we are when we get home!

Is it easy enough to find off the M6? Hope so because my map reading abilities are shocking! :p

Pixelfill
13-08-06, 22:30
Hey good news,

It will be good to see you both again if you can make it.

It's very easy to find. If you come off the M6 northbound (Jn21), you go right (3rd exit I think)at the first roundabout. At the next roundabout turn first left (looks a little like an unmade road) immediately into the pub carpark :) the second left is the turn back onto the motorway.

there is a map here (http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?t=77480)

my brother in law mechanic says i have only around 100 miles left of driving the car untill i kill the cat (not a bad thing lol) so im going to sort it first thing.....

It usually starts at about 19:00 - 19:30 but it can get very busy very early.

A few of us travelling from the North tend to meet up at Haydock Island service station Jn 23 at about 18:00 - 18:15 and then mini convoy down.
This still sound like a plan guys?

Gaz I can give you a lift if need be, but I'll be staying for the duration so wouldn't want to strand you there longer than you wanted. You've got my number give me a bell if you want me to pick you up. Failing that Brian, or Ian (if he's coming) could give you a lift.

Hey Gaz I’m sure you’re already fixed up with a lift but I will be going as well if your stuck. As I’m in no fit state to start the single conversion tomorrow (4 days drinking is to much these days :) ) Hope its nothing to serious with your car matey?

TBH im thinking i might just go in the pug, only really want to come down for an hour, and its not fair to drag someone else away when they might not want to.

Hi, my first time last night but had to park near the entrance cos the car park was packed in the supra area..... got there about 19:00. Me and ma partner in crime nearly counted about 150 cars in total. Some really nice motors (some money's worth) a plenty there tho. Couldn't help but giggle when the poor regulars were waiting to get :eyebrows: out tho and there was no way to get through the ram packed car park. All in all a good night :thumbs: and will be going again next month with ma camera and early this time so i can park up with you guys ;)

:) Yeah it was a good night as usual :p Not a record breaking night for the numbers (of soops) but was packed all the same, good to meet the usual suspects :) and Jase good to see you

Didnt get the "Christmas Do" sorted but there was a few good suggestions mentioned ie Blackpool being one ......we need to have a safe place for the cars / a Hotel with good food / and a bar/club as well Tall order i know :innocent: So ANY idea,s Guys n Gals ?? Needs sorting sooner than later to get things booked b4 the Christmas rush
the venue has to be in the catchment area for the N-East peeps/Yorkshire and the Midlands peeps to come over etc

lol! if i had hybrids & they didn't make any difference i'd be pissed off too mate ;) seriously, i was saying that i thought it was absolutely neck & neck and that it seemed even

for the 3 runs we did:

1) we were matched exactly
2) i was pulling away from you ever so slightly
3) you were pulling from me ever so slightly

it seemed that whoever got on boost quicker starting pulling away quicker but once we were both on boost it was just the same, so i didn't fancy any license losing material to drive side by side

i don't reckon those hybrids would do anything without a better intercooler anyway

get your name down for the Elvington RWYB & then we'll get it done properly ;) that private road we took home isn't the safest of placest is it & i've witnessed your driving from inside your car :blink: :p

Had a look around the Supras later on...some really nice ones there....loved the black one with the TRD spoiler! Was no-one around though when we had a look!!

One thing i noticed - (thought it was just my supra!) Almost every rear bumper didn't match the colour of the car!!

Spotted a few that had the same "import disease" as mine, with glue stuck on the window surrounds, where the japs have had those fender jobbies on!

Anyone know the part numbers for those?? Could do with some new ones!

Think, next time i'll meet up with you lot and convoy down!

:cool: Some effort must have gone into polishing it! Had a Black MR2 before the supe.....nothing shines quite as much as a black car! Takes some effort though!:d

I'm gonna go for a TRD spoiler i think, then maybe a do-luck front! Starting to get bored of the Veilside.

Derek cheated, he just had his resprayed :D

It's a shame you didn't get a chance to come over, we saw you arrive, but then you disappeared after getting out of the car :search: Unfortunately we were just on our way in for food.

Hopefully catch up with you next month - if not before

Cheers mate, dont worry i was only using it to hit things ;) I bought a set of ratchet spanners the other day wow they are really usefull for fast removal! The kit is PHR stage 1 so its all HKS stuff very nice quality! The tubby is one of there GT60 which i was told will follow to 630+ RWHP at 29 psi with the right set of supporting modifications :D

The only thing that has been a problem is the oil feed return which i've had to use a work around using the stock oil adapter.

Your car looking really nice matey! how hard was it changing the box? did you go for the BL one?

I may be calling on you matey for some advice :)

yep adjustables are OK to hit things with lol, i used braided hose and pucka hydraulic fittings for the turbo oil return, do you have a hydraulic specialist near where you live ? (check the yellow pages) if you get the length and take the turbo and block fittings in these guys will make you up a proper hose, you really need to make sure that these feed and return hoses are 100% if you loose one its probably goodbye engine, yes the box is a Boostlogic and was time consuming started at about 10 am, finished at about 8pm my mate has a pit which made things a bit easier but i am now aching all over :)

Yeah I’m using a genuine braid hose the only difference is that I have it going into the stock bottom adapter, which means that it’s away from the manifold and the flow is better as its not kinked etc :) But saying that I live near Preston and I’m not sure if there is any local specialist etc but i may have a look I really only need the fitting that goes into the block at an angle. Do you know anywhere?

I keep thinking about the BL boxes! Sounds like a heavy job!

Cheers matey

Pixelfill
30-08-06, 19:36
John, you realise if you get there early enough to park with the rest of us there is a very real danger we might speak to you ;)

Taken from the sticky in the events forum


It usually starts at about 19:00 - 19:30 but it can get very busy very early. so a few of us travelling from the North tend to meet up at Haydock Island service station Jn 23 at about 18:00 - 18:15 and then mini convoy down. Usually getting a bite to eat when we get there.

Yeah I know I had thought about this mate, but it's a risk I'm willing to take ;)

Not sure about going to J23 just to come back down to 21 though, might just get there around half 6-7 and park up then. Got time to decide though anyway, and i might be bringing another Soop with me too this month
