I was very anti auto until I got mine, but from someone who always said they would never own a performance car with an auto box, it has changed my perception. Its a good autobox for its age.
-
Nice improvement there
-
Depends on the car mate, no set figure they are all different. I wouild say drive some autos and manuals and see what you think, I have an auto, its a nice box but they are old technology, however still very capable. Remember some of these cars are getting on for 20 years old now so anything you buy will need work doing so have a good look round before buying. A BPU Supra is very fast even by today's standards its enough to scalp quite a range of "fast" cars.

Looking good mate, but get that plastic cable tie sorted lol
-
Perfect time to go single

I would save and buy the best I could afford. Plenty of very nice, clean, tidy NA's that pop up. Just a case of being patient and waiting for the right one. Risk is buy too cheap and you may end up paying more to repair/upgrade than you would have just buying a decent one to start with.

Yeah thats the one. Woodbridge airbase at bentwarters park. Decent track, nice a fast. http://www.trackdays.co.uk/tracks/woodbridge.htm

Hi folks Need to know the size and number of the bolts that hold to crash bar to the front. Out and about and want to pick some up so cant check the car. Thanks Si

Dont waste your time with Paul "Spam pistonheads" Brown, if you want a Supra for yourself, straight to JM Imports or Whifbitz.

Car is looking good mate. How many scalps did you get on the day?
-
Fair enough looks good without the 3rd brake light, very clean.
-
Just a partial respray mate?
-
Ok cheers that clears it up.
-
Thanks guys. Paint has gone through to primer in some places so think I will just prime the lot the spray. Any recommendations on lacquer? have used cellulose in the past for wheels hard wearing enough for car body bits?
-
Just picked up some 320 grade so that's fine and have some panel wipe as well. Nope its straight 202 Toyota black I'm painting over, just had been sprayed badly in the past. So just a plain grey primer would be fine then? Have a rotary plus polishing compounds and heads so that's all fine for correcting the finish after sanding.

Hi folks, spent last night sanding down some OEM spats with wet and dry. Now have a nice smooth finish free of any marks etc, finished with 800 grade paper. Do I need to do anything else to the surface before laying down a few coats of primer? does it need to be keyed with anything? Will be using plastic primer then moving on to paints4u cans of 202 black I have left from something else. For the colour, would it be spray then let it dry and sand back then spray again as with the lacquer? Have painted a few parts in the past but nothing this large or flat Thanks Si

Excellent progress. Looking forward to more updates!
