  1. Thanks dude, really appreciate it. He’s one of my friends who is a very talented videographer, but had never shot a wedding video before! Lol I chose him as he normally does motorsport/festivals/concerts/DJ’s etc and wanted it to be a bit of craic and not a typical wedding video. since 2 weeks after my wedding he’s now been travelling with McLaren across the world, so any new McLaren videos and a lot of the photos are all by him. Bragging rights
  2. Thanks Andy, good to see you on here! I've just committed to one of your manifolds myself, Type B. Can't wait to get it! If it's you fabricating it, send me a few wee progress videos haha
  3. Jesus.... I think I may need to update this! lol Basically my car lay dormant for years and I got her spruced up (visually) for my wedding and wedding video and I've been LOVING driving it ever since. Unfortunately it's in getting loads of essential maintenance at the moment which has brought me back to the forum. I'm needing a single turbo setup or a pair of stock twins in good working order, if anyone knows of anything - let me know! Anyways, he's my wedding video which has some pretty epic shots of my car. 2:15 & 5:30 for Supra scenes...

    Stop copying me [emoji14] kidding. Good luck with the search. It may be just as cheap to buy new to get the right sizes and offsets.
  5. Sounds about right Sheefa! I've been in Niall's car and it's an absolute animal lol.
  6. Email or ring Paul at TCB. He will sort you out for a fraction of the cost of anywhere else most likely.
  7. Have a UK spec 1st decat in my car and I was actually reluctant to use it because it looked so damn good! Lol top quality.
  8. After about 100 miles of easy driving to bed the clutch in, I decided to go for a leisurely drive to Tescos. Just as I was pulling out of the parking space 1st gear pops out and refused to go back in.... shit. 1st gear thrust washer/synchro decided it wanted to die. @np89 and I then got use of a friends garage and took my gearbox out ourselves and I've left it to my local gearbox specialist, Ali Burrows Motorsport. I'm waiting for the final diagnosis but I'm I'm 2 minds whether to fully rebuild the box, or just replace what's broken. After the gearbox was taken out we decided to go for a pizza at about 2am and watch TV in Nialls X5... oh the luxury
  9. So quite a lot has happened since the last update! My clutch started to slip very slightly and within the space of about 20 miles went from alright to completely undriveable. I decided to get my TRD flywheel resurfaced and maintain my TRD pressure plate, as it was 100%. So in place of my extremely harsh TRD 3 puck disc, I went for an Aisin disc with kevlar lining and it's holding BPU power perfectly. It's like a completely stock clutch to drive. Brilliant. I decided to give the car an oil/filter change at the same time. Only done about 1000 miles since the last one, but sure why not!
  10. Where stocks them in the UK? The ACT is my sort of limit price wise at £700.
  11. My TRD clutch is slipping and seems I need a new clutch What are people running? I was contemplating an ACT Xtreme organic clutch. It'll be mainly road driving with the odd track day. I'm running BPU atm and doubt I'll ever go single tbh.
  12. Cheers guys! Only got tyres on the rear atm, so I'll hold other pics until they're all fitted. 18x10 ET18 with 265/35r18 Tri-Ace Racing King tyres.
