  1. Had no choice but to go with the PHR kit. Expensive but looks amazing once fitted. Standard Whifbitz kit which required fabrication but my local garage are handy with modifications. Few pics attached
  2. Hi Shane, I ended up buying a new 6870 Turbo from Owen Developments. I've sent you a PM. Thanks Oz
  3. 6266 Turbo needs replacing may go bigger. Wondering if anyones selling due to change in build etc.
  4. Thanks guys. I ended up ordering a PHR kit.
  5. Hi there, Just need some help with installation, myself & mechanic will be fitting the Whifbitz Inlet Manifold (Drive by wire) 1. Does the power steering need to be moved in order for clearance? I have seen PHR steering resouvier kits but as nice as they are they seem very dear just to clear a throttle body! Is there any other ways around it / alternatives? 2. Appears to be 4 pipes on the new Whifbitz inlet manifold, but only 2 wires from the Supra that come from the top that appear to be too short to connect with the new manifold ? 3. Finally, the stock inlet has mounting points for the wiring loom. However, the new Whifbitz inlet has no mounting points for the wiring loom, is this OK to tuck under? Thanks
  6. Anyone selling a Steering Rack or knows where's best place to refurb one? Thanks
  7. RS4 B7 Avant / Saloon are my go to cars. I've had two and loved every min in them. They're quite spacious & are so fun to drive. Only down side is they are thirsty on fuel & I would advise getting one that's had a good service history & big ticket items checked such as DRC/ Oil cooler, carbon clean etc. Wouldn't get an e90/2 M3 as they're quite problematic.
  8. After an Original Bonnet Any colour Thanks
  9. Removed after having it on the car for only 3 years, reason for sale is I've upgraded to a Mishimoto radiator recently as I'm chasing more power. Radiator works fine Cash on collection from Manchester £60
  10. Keep the car for another 4 years, you've done it before so I'm sure you can do it again Then come back to this thread in 4 years time & ask the same question. You may just find you get close to £100,000
  11. I've been without a Supra once before for nearly a year & it's hard. The fact is, not many cars out there that give you the same thrill, sensation and joy that a Supra has to offer. Maybe I'm just too proud owning a Supra The only thing that will make me sell is if my circumstances change I.e getting a house/new career etc. I'm 27 now, I have my savings & it would be a really last resort & I'd do everything in my power to not ever have to use the Supra to fund my first house.
  12. Seats were installed by JDK Autoworx, using M2 Seat Rails. The rails required some minor modifications in order for them to fit. Whilst that was going on, my brothers Nissan Skyline R34 GTR was getting an annual service. So when I initially purchased the Supra last year I was fully aware it needed a FULL Respray. I was leaning towards respraying the Supra in what would be a very unique Lamborghini Individual Colour. I'm fortunate to have driven a few nice cars in my time. Last summer, I had the privilege of driving this beautful Lamborghini Huracan Spyder. More then the car itself, I was in love with the colour! The depth of the blue was so deep & mesmerising I just knew I had to have my next Supra in this colour. However, after much consideration & with the help of numerous chats with like minded Supra enthusiasts. I went against the Lambo Blue and instead chose to respray her in the Original 8L5 Royal Sapphire Pearl (RSP) My reasoning for performing this sudden U turn was: A) I still hadn't seen what a true Royal Sapphire Pearl looked like. Similar to my very first Supra, a 20 year old Supra with faded paint changes the looks of a car & it's paint colour B) The biggest reason for me to stick with the RSP was that in fact, the car wasn't resprayed in RSP. It did leave the Factory in Japan in RSP but the previous owner before @marc_phad resprayed the car a different colour & the car was subsequently resprayed/blown over in what was a non-factory Suzuki Ultra Blue colour. C) Royal Sapphire Pearl is arguably regarded as the best colour for the Toyota Supra. That being said, I could see why that was the case. As this pic below illustrates the true original colour of the RSP is the colour you see on the inside of the Door Sills. The colour is a much darker shade of Purple/Blue, compared to the rest of the car which is sadly in Suzuki Ultra Blue. Thankfully no one ever messed with respraying the inside of the car. Again, you can see the true RSP on the inside of the boot well & chassis. That day of driving it to the Garage for it's long overdue respray had arrived. With all my previous full resprays, a Glass out job was essential in order to get the best finish. Glass removed I decided to delete the rear wipers, as the car would never be driven in the rain... So they got sanded down & removed.
  13. hi sent a message to you hope you got it 

  14. I think the way the markets going, £50/55k is not out the question. Desirable colour, hang tight you may just get an overseas buyer.
