Jon - cant seem to find him!

Hi - I bought a second supra recently which is failing its MOT on a large range of things! One of the things they have said is that the passenger side headlight has no beam pattern and it isnt the bulb? They look like fairly new lights and have the glass lids...is there anything anyone can suggest to avoid me having to fork out on another complete headlight? Thanks

hi - they just elaborated a little more on the problem with the passenger side headlight....apparently it has "no beam pattern" and cant get access? Any ideas?

thanks chaps - i shall contact the relevant people as recommended! Ta

Thanks for the advice on the fog...the garage have yet to be specific hence asking to be pointed in the right direction rather than specifically asking for bits

always the way!!!

Hi! I bought a second supra which seems to be turning into a project and the garage have just called with a list of things to be done to pass the MOT! mk4 import auto n/a I need the following as a start and wondered if someone could point me in the right direction? Used stuff would keep the price down I guess! New passenger side headlight as current one has no cut off?! Glass as a preference as the other side is glass. Rear foglight - presumed this had been done but obviously not changed/ installed It has breaking problems and may need new callipers etc Front indicator set any help would be great G

contacted - many thanks

sorry - who's Nic?

Hi - im trying to get hold of some replacement ignition leads for my import, manual n/a 1995. They seem to be about $60 in the US but no one will export! Over here, there seems to be lots of performance options at crazy prices and I just want the standard replacement leads....any ideas?!! Ta

Hi - I wouldnt have thought I would have had to resort to posting but im having trouble!! Im just after a set of replacement ignition leads for a mk4 n/a import 1995 manual? It seems that most places have the performance versions rather than just the standard...i just want replacement leads that seem to be selling for about $60 in the states but are hard to get delivered. Can anyone suggest a good replacement/ source? Thanks!

Hi - are any of the "supra" badges still available?!

ta - will check it out

Hmmm - maybe....I will check them tonight but thought it might be something more serious perhaps...

Hi - I wondered if anyone could help....I have a n/a manual import and recently it seems to have a problem. I needed to overtake and was accelerating quite fast when the car hit about 4k and there was a definate loss of power. Ive not noticed this before and it seems to do it regardless of what gear im in? Any ideas on the problem and remedy? Thanks

Indeed you do and if I was keeping the car for a long term investment then I would spend the cash. Given the bad condition of the skirts/ bumper ive decided to remove them and replace with new bits to be resprayed. I think I will get the old kit and spend time getting it reinforced/ looking nice again then either add it to my Black Soop or sell it on. Thanks for the heads up though

thanks all

Hi - does anyone know of somewhere I can get a helpful resource in doing my own its and pieces to the car. Im dabling in mechanics/ general servicing and more so the bodywork (adding kit/ spraying etc). I cant see anything cheap that is haynes orientated?

Hi - I recently purchased a 2nd Supra which has some rough/ very ill fitting sides and front. Im gonna take these off and put some new ones on but I am working to a budget. I have a reputable/ experienced guy who is confident he can work with most kits and will reinforce/ fit and respray the 3 items for £450. I now need to find the front bumper and sides for him to work with! Im well aware of the rubbish that is out there but do have a budget to work to... Any recommendations of who/ where to approach? Thanks

Hmmm - being ex trade im always looking for a deal! The guys I know are all smart repair experts so wont extend to the lengths I require. I bought the car as it was extra cheap and love the blue but want the car to look as it deserves. Im not a perfectionist and only intend to keep it for a few years so budget is an issue!

hi - thanks....I dont mind travelling for the right price/ quality thanks again

Canterbury? you know the campus then? Either that or you know the car?!!!

hi - the pics are deceiving! Needs to have the kit properly fitted and alot of attention on respraying bumper/ front/ kit. I have experience at spraying myself but this car needs a specialist. I bought it cheap so have the budget for a full well done respray (similar colour) so hopefully someone can help! I would attempt myself but the mrs would leave me!

Hi - I posted on another thread and think I may get more feedback in this section! Just bought another Supra that needs some tidying up of kit and exterior respray....does anyone know of some reasonably priced people preferably in the South that are up to Supra scratch?!! A pic of car enclosed!

hi - uploaded!
