  1. hmmm just thought, dont be too harsh with the p*ss taking, i wasnt sure wether to post this cos i know ill be a lamb to the slaughter on this site lol
  2. right where do i start ive had my tt for 6 months after having an N/A for 3 years and for ages i thought it was running a bit flat. i finally decided to go BPU (cheers whiffbitz) and took it to JPS motorsports. once aqll of it was fitted i was soooo excited to take my car for a spin only to find out that my second turbo wasnt working lol (been like it since i bought the car) so i took it back to the garage the following week and OMG what a difference it literally doubled in power (feel free to take the p*ss). All was well for a week, then i started hearing a nasty grinding sound from my back wheels, my first thought was that the wheel bearing had broken, and me being me i left it for a few days while still driving around like a mad head. the grinding eventually got too bad that i had to jack it up and see for sure that the wheel bearing had packed in so i could get it back into the garage, only to find out that the grinding had been caused by the wheels hanging off and only being held by about 2 threads on each nut...........i felt physically sick when i found out. (my mate had forgot to torque up the bolts when he changed my springs (ive since gone mad at him)) sorry about the long thread, just thought id share it with you. P.S. as i said earlier feel free to make fun of me cos im sooo embarassed that im so much of a noob after having a supra for 4 years! [OOPS][/OOPS]
  3. yeah he was about 70, and he did say that he didnt see it, the annoying thing is that anybody that makes the effort to look behind them while reversing would have no chance in hitting my car, it was the only car on the road and he had a good 15 foot either side of me. the problem that im faced with is that i havent declared the bumper yet so i dont really want to go through insurance.
  4. after having my supra off the road for 3 weeks puting a new kit on it and changing the springs, i finally got it looking good and decided to take it for a spin yesterday, only for an old bloke to reverse into it and crack my new bumper. angry is not the word
  5. hi, ive just tried replacing my varis bumper with a bomex, but it doesnt seem to want to fit, its a second hand bumper so it should go on quite easily, does the crash bar have to be removed for bomex? cheers
  6. ill take the trd spoiler mate
  7. hey everyone, i bought a secondhand bomex bumper recently and noticed that there has been some holes cut out for the facelift sidemarkers, would anybody happen to have any for sale, or possibly know where i can get some? cheers
  8. haha i want a trd spoiler for a black supra too
  9. and the fact those stupid eyebrows have disappeared
  10. ive got a before and after from my soop, sorry for butting in lol
  11. aaah right thanks for clearing that up, i really need some tt springs you see, my cars pretty much grounded til i can get some

    bpu help?

    im thinking of BPUing my tt, but im not confident in doinf it myself, is there a place in the oxfordshire area where i could take it, and how much would it be if i provided all the neccessary parts? cheers
  15. or on the other hand, does anyone know where i can source any from?
  16. right heres another debate then............. which bodykit is best for groung clearance, cos my varis ine is just plain awful (and spoils the look of my car lol)
  17. i have the electric arial motor if its any help?!
  18. i see what you mean, it does look nice with stock, and active spoiler, i want my car to look more kitted like you tho
  19. only problem is, i got rid of the eyelids yesterday, and fitted a set of uk spec lights, which makes my current bumper look awful (plus the huge crack on the bottom from that kerb driving into me lol)
  20. the do luck does look pretty nice tbh, what sort of price would i be looking for one of those? i have been considering bomex tho
  21. i was just wondering what the best front bumper would be for my black supra, i currently have a varis one and hate it!
  22. hi im looking for a set of 4 stock coils, old or new, cos im sick of avoiding speed bumps all the time lol, cheers
