    Washer Jets

    Hey ppl. Another newbie question im afraid! Have looked in the FAQ but no luck. And you'll probably slap me for how dumb this is. Last night needed to use the washer jets for the first time! And could I work out how to, no! Pulled and pressed everything I could but no water came out. What should I be doing? I havnt had a chance to check the washer bottle yet cos the car is in the garage today getting a new alarm fitted, but will check later when i get it home. Thankyou
  2. lol, it was like Mad Max 4 are the petrol station last night, everyone trying to get infront of everyone else and pushing in just to get a can of the black stuff!!!
  3. haha it was the gf's idea! that smoothrite sounds good, where can i get some?

    Dash Lights...

    Cheers ppl no need to worry then! hmmmm having trouble changing to the other side for the indicator, has so far led to some intresting window wiping!
  5. Sorry for this not being in the technical area, but I havent signed up properly yet, will do it in the next few days... Tonight was the first time I've driven the new Supe at night. And forgive me if this is a stupid question but then it could be one of them crazy Jap ideas like having the indicators on the right hand side of the steering column! Ok, when I turn my sidelights/main beam on, all the dash lights apart from the clock and trip dull in colour! Not like a battery drain dull, its a definate change. Surly it should be the other way round, dull dash lights during the day, that come on much brighter when I turn the lights on??? Im having the speedo changed this weekend, so if its something you guys think is wrong, I'll have the dash lights looked at at the same time. Cheers ppl
  6. hey mine are looking a little but rusty aswell! when it happend to my gf's car, i used CIF cream and a hard tooth brush. so was gonna give that a try on the Supe...
  7. Fiat Panda Super Peugeot 106 Zest2 MGF 1.8i (still got it, but up for sale) Supra TT6
  8. have only been driving the car for 3 days Supra-man. still driving it like i have miss daisy in the back! haha. its seems ok though.
  9. oh and mikey, im in a little town not far from Colchester. i dont really like to say where exactly. never know who might be reading this!
  10. erm, cant remember what wheels they are. i'll check tonight, i didnt choose them, i think the dealer i got the car from got a job lot of them, cos he had fitted the same ones to a R33 and Evo4. there not exactly to my taste to tell the truth, so i'll probably change them soon.
  11. cheers again ppl. am really enjoying it. and your right, i think black is the best colour aswell. i've waited ages for an import to turn up as clean and healthy as that one, very low miles aswell. cheers for the link Nic, i'll be ordering some soon
  12. cheers party ppl. will have to get some better pics, prefrably not ones where ive parked half way into a bush! haha cant wait to start adding my own personal touches to it. first thing will be some white front/side indicators. then some serious stuff, haha, i already have a pretty long wish list.
  13. At last I've got some pics of it! ok so it only took 2 days from when I picked it up. and they are dodgy cos is basicly because mum was testing out her new birthday pressie (digital camera) but they'll do for now Click me for pics Couldnt get dad out the drivers seat he loved the thing!!!
  14. Ive always used the autoglym products and rainwater for final rinse before shammy. I used the flash system on my GF car and it really didnt do much.
  15. Spotted my first Sup since owning one myself. Yesterday (Sunday) afternoon about 2ish. Sorry if colour is wrong, im colour blind but defiantly a silver'ish colour. I was coming from London Road Benfleet, I think you came off the A13, followed you in my Black Sup down the A130 for a little. Couldn't catch up, as still getting used to my car.
  16. Fair enough, I think i prefer fold in, they look really nifty when you park up! haha.
  17. im confused. my 1994 RZ has retractable mirrors! and i thought they were only available on the later models!
  18. would we use it for the underside of the cars? someone told me that cos im buying a jap import, they havnt done something to the underneath of the car, meaning it could rust if im not carefull! of course, they could have been talking a load of rubbish.
  19. there cool! i'll take a supra one in black chrome will be my first mod! teehee
  20. those likwid art ones look cool. how easy are they to fit? it is just sticky tape, or have they got locating pins?
  21. down london road, leigh on sea. near the elms pub. all the cars i've seen there have been real nice quality. heres the website, http://www.japaneseimportsltd.co.uk but hands off the black TT. cos thats mine im picking it up this weekend.
  22. yeh i know what ya mean. i waited for ages for the one, and i was lucky to get it, a guy turned up to buy it whilst i was test driving it, so they offerd me the car first and of course i said yes. but if ya close enough defiantly check out the Jap place in southend.
  23. yup i walked away, i didnt even bother asking to see the inside or take it for a ride after i saw the state of the outside!
  24. Hey firepool, that sounds like the supra down the a12 near witham am i right? i had a look at that and walked away! its taken me 8 months to find the perfect car. bought mine last saturday from a Jap place in Southend.
  25. Nice one cheers. I'll check them out
