  1. I was talking to a bloke in the Birches Head hotel , just outside Hanley, Nice to get a meet sorted , maybe at a pub with a decent carpark
  2. whats the crack with getting a pull for undersized front plate, is it a fine or can it attract points on your licence?? Mine is pretty small (take a look) the letters are actually smaller than the std motor bike letters I know you usually get away with a caution but whats the max they can do?
  3. Its all money money money, starts with a guage then a bov then a body kit then the ice ,headlights,induction etc etc. It would probably be less hassel to thake the "purist" stance and stay standard.......apart from maybe ;) ;)
  4. I was chatting to a guy from Hanley the other day, forgot to ask him if he was a member on here, he has a Red TT manual. Said he was try to arrange a meet around the Stoke-on-Trent area , anyone know anything about it and for that matter do YOU live near Stoke Staffs
  5. I take it these are genuine facelift lights and not facelift refurb style, how much were they , they look really good
  6. I made a post last week regarding a pipe I found which was disconnected and sucking air,it was T cutted in to what I now believe to be the turbo pressure sensor.So I put a bolt in the added pipe to block it off , (only the added pipe, not the turbo pressure pipe. I thought this is where a boost guage could be fitted, but I was looking at another guys Supra and he has a BOV fitted here , see photo. Is this the correct place to T in a BOV and if so does or can the standard bov remain in place ?? Is the correct place to T in for a boost guage too ?
  7. thanks for the info, will have to see how things pan out after Christmas:eyebrows:
  8. how much approx would it cost to have this done and would you loose much/any reliability What is a cat-back exhaust exactly?? Can I assume you remove original cats and the replacment exhaust has a cat in the back box ???? Would original cats have to be put back on for mot ?
  9. what extra bhp approx would that give. What is a cat-back exhaust exactly??
  10. the guy in question said the original cannot be mapped with a pc like many modern cars but there is a replaccement chip available which has been pre mapped, he seems a decent enough bloke who has an alarm / car elec business:search:
  11. A couple of questions , ( TT auto ) :search: I have been told by a guy who fits super chips that it will give around 36 bhp extra on a pretty much std car. The questions :- 1) would that be correct ? 2) would it make a noticable difference 3) What do you class as a BPU , in the normal way, first steps. My car has std induction with a three quarter ss exhaust , both cats in place. Any comments appreciated:search:
  12. the centre caps say :- Vertec VR5 Manaray Sport, they are 18" deep rims, the rims are highly polished, ive never heard of them , have you??
  13. no name as of yet , ummmmmmm:eyebrows:
  14. did you get a warning ?? or fine , have you changed it now ??
  15. Just had a look at you number plate, do ya think its as small as mine, the letters on mine are small than the std motorbike ones, is it a fine jobby if caught or are points on the license given toooo?????
  16. Ive just put that small front number plate on, do you think Ill get away with it ???????
  17. Oh . and some clear front indicators !!!
  18. Think some facelift style headlights from Jon, like yours, you finish it off, what do you think ??
  19. Yeah , well I have now , its under "my new Supa" cheers:)
  20. Ive got the yellow bilsteins, are they stock then????

  22. markjodrell

    photos?

    Just tried to post a couple of photos here but when I look at the forum they aint appeared???
  23. Its seems everybody had different views on which oil,I have read that many say GTX is pants, like you say each to his own. I know of a local Jap performance specialist who uses 10/40 GM semi synthetic on all cars he service, thats the stuff from a vauxhall garage the same as I put in my Vectra, is that good enough ???? on the engine it states 10/30 , is there much difference between 10/30 and 10/40
