  1. Rad no 2 fuse keeps blowing on my car. Anyone know what it does? Possibly could be my dash lights etc as they aren't working at the moment and no other fuse is out. Sound about right?? ta!!
  2. Ok... I'm missing the front toyota badge from my silver TT (jap import). Anyone know where I can get a new one? (or does it have to be mr T?). It's a sorta bronzeyish colour if you know what I mean. Many thanks!
  3. do you mind me asking what it was roughly?? Also what bhp you putting out? Cheers
  4. Where did you get the new rubbers as my boot is rattling too!! If from Mr T , do you have any part numbers etc? Thanks
  5. ok, so that's that all explained to me! .... ta Now how about's this "overdrive" thing??
  6. They seem decent tbh. Got a quote of £606 for Jap TT Auto. Fair enough they couldn't get near Elephants price of £470, but Sky don't mind basic mods etc, so all's good. Think I'll be giving them a buzz at the end of the month!
  7. got a web address/price/contact info mate?
  8. Yeah, think I will go BPU first of all. I take it the below decat pipe will do the trick? Might sound like a daft question, but for a double decat it is simply a case of two of these used? Ebay
  9. Just out of curiousity how much boost can the stock turbos take?
  10. With a double decat, exhaust, restrictor ring ... is it necessary for a boost controller/FCD/fuel pump? Also what sort of power increase should be expected from that?
  11. Well nothing too crazy... no Giant turbos, engine rebuilds etc... lol. Just where should I start??
  12. Cool... can't wait to see it. Personally with a white Supra, I'd be tempted to do the whole castrol decal thing.
  13. I just got my first TT Auto Supra on Thursday and it is totally stock!!! The only thing non standard about it is a part of the dash that's been painted silver!!... lol. I used to own a Mr2 turbo and went to town on that... but with the Supra, I don't know where to start. Not too fussed at the moment about the looks side of things as I think the stock Supra (maybe not the wheels), looks good as is. So.... what should I be looking at first???
  14. I might be stupid here... but BPU ?? (what's that?)
  15. looks miles better than what mine do at the minture anyway. How much are the UK glass headlights??
  16. I'll defo be trying this soon. The oven method anyway... hope I don't melt the buggers!! What's the best thing to clean the inside with? I take it it's just the inside of the plastic lens which needs cleaned? Still don't know what they weren't glass in the first place!! First dibs for anyone selling a spare set of lights!! ... lol. (just incase)
  17. decided my car's too quiet... was driving behind some pedestrians who were on the road and they didn't even know I was there!! .... lol. It's a silent monster!!
  18. Totally stock TT Auto with 60K miles... You'll all probably get sick of me asking questions soon... but please put up with me! (and yes, I know the front emblem is squint... sorting that tomorrow!!.. lol) Cheers.
  19. Ok... after alot of playing and taking the dash apart today etc... my heaters etc now work (weren't when I got the car). But the lights for the speedo/dash/heater buttons etc still do not work. I've narrowed it down to a fuse. It's the Rad no2 fuse (second row of fuses, far right on the diagram if you're looking at the fuse cover). It had a 10amp fuse in it, turned the lights on, it blew. Put a 15amp fuse in it... same again. The headlights etc work fine, just none of the lights on the dash which are supposed to come when you turn the lights on. Anyone got any ideas? I thought possible because the stereo wiring is cut and possibly the illumination wire (for the stereo) is touching something? I'm nearly out of ideas..... if no one can help it'll be a trip to the auto electricians! HELP MeeeEeee !!! thanks
  20. sorry, what I meant was will 40km be 40mph on the speedo face once the chip is wired in ?
  21. Ok.. just got my supra, but it's all in Km/h still. Odometer and speedo. I know you can get convertors for them but someone said this can sometimes confuse the auto box?? Also if it's converted, will the odometer still read in km/h or will the new mileage be added onto the existing total kms in miles? (so it will be a mix of kms and miles?) If I get it converted etc will the speedo which is currently in km/h then read in mph? For example... the 40km/h just now will then be 40m/h? (I assume it would be better to get a replacement dial also?). Any help appreciated on this! Had imports before, but it's all been done for me in the past! Also any advice on what convertor to get etc, etc. Also appreciated! Many thanks
  22. what about NANKANG EX500's ? ... I know Nankang have a bad name, but it's only one tyre I'm after and it is the summer!?!.... ?.. lol. Seriously tho.. on tight budget now after getting the supra!!
  23. lol.. ALL OF THEM!?!?...... will do, cheers!
