  1. Welcome to the club. Yes that was mine and I'm glad to see it wasn't too painful getting it through the MOT. I hope to be back in a Supra myself sometime as I love the car (though I might save up and go for a 6 speed).
  2. I like the side graphics but not those window bits. Just goes to show it's all down to personal taste.
  3. Ignore all these old gits Like most olduns they just don't like things when they are different from the norm. Though I've not got neons on mine I have thought about it. Even had blue ones on an old Nova a few years ago. You may want to watch the swearing though. Just imagine you are trying to talk to your Gran.
  4. Good couple of tips there. Dnk, believe me, if I could afford to upgrade the brakes I would but this car has already cost me a fortune and that's just replacing with like for like (Engine, suspension, etc etc (including replacing the old brakes that were seizing with some better conditioned ones)).
  5. Lol thanks for that Chris. I had already changed the pads at the weekend and the sliders / piston were by no mean seized. The top slider was a lot harder to move than the bottom one though. I have some high temp grease so will take the slider out and give it a clean up / regrease.
  6. I have the smaller jspec 2pot/1pot. Thanks for all the info guys. I'll see about greasing the sliders.
  7. Would that also explain why it will suddenly start squealing as I'm driving down the A14 when I've not used my brakes for a while? Only happens when driving straight. If I move the steering wheel slightly the noise goes away same as if I brake then lift off the brake it goes away for a while O.o
  8. Okay, a few weeks ago I started to get a squealing sound from the passenger side rear wheel but only after I had been on the move for a while which stops under breaking. I jacked the car up and checked for wheel movement but it seemed solid. I did notice the pad was getting a bit low so I thought it could have been that. Well I changed the rear brake pads over the weekend and noticed something really odd with the pads from that side. The outer one was worn right down but the inner one still had most of it's pad left but was showing wear on the upper and lower edges :s Drivers side were both worn evenly. Does this mean the bearing has gone kaput on the rear passenger side? Let's face it, it's one of the few things that I've not had to replace with this fing car so wouldn't surprise me
  9. Downloaded. Thanks One of those things that you hope you never need though
  10. Only thing it needed was a new wiper blade on the drivers side. So that's all the paperwork done for another year.
  11. St Ives here so Huntingdon would be perfect for me.
  12. There was? First I've heard about that Any more details? Also I should be good for a meet so long as it's not this weekend coming.
  13. aww, it's been removed by the user
