  1. Hi, I would have the need for a single 17x8" Supra front alloy wheel. Would also interested for a pair of front wheels. Reguirement for the wheel(s) condition would be in one piece, true and refurbishable. Let me know if you have one(s) available. Thank you! Best regards, Mika
  2. I have had the Greddy oil filter relocation kit fitted since 2005 in my car. I placed it to left side of the car, under of the transmission bellhousing bolt. It truly changed the oil filter change way much easier and it would not mess your pristine subframe with oil. It fustrades to clean the old oil all around. Way much easier with oil filter relocated to easier place. Only downside with the kit are the Earl`s poor quality stupid bling bling hose clamps which you could replace with some better quality regular type hose clamps like ABA`s like this: https://www.suremarineservice.com/Heat/AWAB-316-Stainless-Steel-Clamp/316038B.html
  3. I was in the same situation in last autumn. I needed a sturdy engine stay for my export spec 2jz-gte and ended up to order this one: https://www.bahco.com/gb_en/500-kg-geared-engine-stand-pb_bh8ac2-500_.html I did had a flimsy basic engine stand before, but I did not wanted to risk dropping my 2JZ to the ground if the flimsy engine stay would have let go.
  4. Ok mate, the one I planned to replace is the front weather strip. It feels like it is quite sturdy in place.
  5. Yep, Gaz is right. It is just the screen dress moulding. The windscreen is glued to the car window frame with the windscreen bonding glue which does the sealing. Gaz, I tried to sent you a PM earlier. Which is the best way to try to remove the old windscreen moulding? Mine feels to be really tight in place
  6. This. Kevin is right, your windshield moulding is installed incorrectly. That outside harder part should be against the glas and that softer "wrinkled" side should be against the car "window frame".
  7. Fantastic and innovative work indeed! Keep us updated.
  8. It is a US Spec car, so it does have the Export Spec engine with periscope to cool turbo #2 and cylinders 4, 5 and 6 but not the hood scoop. It is a very strange thing in US Spec cars compared to UK and Euro Spec Supras.
  9. It is from the UK RHD A/T Supra: EUR, LB, RHD, 2JZGTE, ATM, 4FC
  10. You will most likely going to need to have the General EU A/T ECU, Toyota part # 89661-14530 if your car is general Euro Spec Auto Supra. There might be some issues if using Austria / Switzerland A/T ECU, Toyota part # 89661-14550, as the Austria / Switzerland A/T ECU is programmed for different part # auto transmission and differential. But it also could work as it should. Theres also a possibility to use USDM A/T ECU Toyota part # 89661-14510 / 89661-14511 as the engine wire harness is same between US/EU Supras, but US Supra ECU`s does not have as good ignition timing and fuel charts as EU ones do. Also the differential and auto trans are different from the Euro Spec Supra.
  11. I have to correct the differential part. It should have a small A-serie diff with 3.266 final gear ratio and LSD. Facelift cars does not have the big B-Series differentials from the factory.
  12. ^Just like the guys wrote above, these must be one of the best looking door panel upholstery job I have seen for a while! Did you buy some leather door panel upholstery kit or did someone do a custom job for you? How these were made? Did you remove the original vinyl and padding foam layer to the bare door card? I would like to know how did you pad the door panel and what kind of upholstery glue did you use for the new leather? Great job!
