  1. Yep that's the guy. I have his mounts and then used a set of universal runners from ebay for my seats.
  2. I've got a carbon fibre blade for sale. https://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?359229-Carbon-TRD-Spoiler-Blade
  3. I've painted my garage floor mainly because it was ridiculously dusty constantly. I used 2 coats of Screwfix's grey Heavy Duty garage floor paint. Only issue was that my sticky tyres stuck to it when the car was sat for a while and pulled up the paint at the contact patches, so I've stuck down a square of heavy duty rubber matting under tyres location.
  4. I'd get an expert to do it if I was you. Russell from Ultimate Windscreens has removed and refitted mine a couple of times. https://www.ultimatewindscreens.co.uk/

    Torque wrenches

    I've had this one for years. Works perfectly! https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Teng-Tools-1292AG-EP-Torque-Wrench-40-210nm-1-2in-Drive/333706353508?epid=13021256970&hash=item4db272db64:g:bDsAAOSwkypfTg6p
  6. At the end of the day Slayer it's your car, but it sounds like 100% originality matters to you and therefor you'll probably best with leather. My car is a work in progress and I don't give a damn about originality so my interior is being retrimmed (couple of bits left to do) and it was going to be all leather with grey stitching but I picked up some Recaro seats that were leather and alcantara so have gone with alcantara inserts on the retrimmed doors as well as the roof and visors. Personally I'd say it looks anything but "gash" and far nicer than tired plastic/vinyl panels or old leather but each to their own.

    Trolley jacks

    I have this one from SGS. https://www.sgs-engineering.com/tja25-aluminium-trolley-jack Can't fault it!
  8. Hi, Up/Down has failed on one of my electric mirrors and it turns out the motor had died. Don't suppose anyone has a motor, part number FK-130RH, or a scrap mirror with a working motor?
  9. Finally got around to investigating the issue. Problem is in the mirror itself. Either the motor or the wiring to the motor. Not sure if motor comes apart and can be fixed, or just needs replacing.
  10. Speak to your bank as you do have some protection with debit cards, tho nowhere near the same as you do with credit cards.
  11. I fitted Strongflex. I went for the Red ones, but they do even stiffer Yellow ones too.
  12. This is the last message I had from the company I approached that make sensors.
  13. I can't remember if it was a Pioneer or Kenwood under seat sub that came with my car (fitted in the boot) but it was OK and definitely improved the sound. But then I upgraded to a proper 10" sub in the boot and it was in a different league.
  14. Here's something I got a while ago that might be useful. I need to try it out on my car at some point
  15. So has come up this residential road that curves to the right and lost control. You couldn't find a more residential road. Was it actually the owner driving? Looks more like the sort of thing car thieves would do evading capture.
  16. http://www.tcbparts.co.uk/ £14.56 + vat
  17. I have NightEyes in my daily for dipped/full beam and in the Supra for Full beam along with HID's for Dipped and Fog. LEDS definitely don't appear to have the range compared to HID's
  18. Selling my spare carbon blade for a TRD spoiler. Part of an edge was slightly damaged in transit when I bought it, consisting of a small crack in the lacquer on the underside of the trailing edge and the clam-shell separated partially. I bonded the edge for a quick fix and used it on my car like this without anyone ever noticing it unless I pointed it out so it's not that bad in my opinion. Photos attached. £120 collection only from OX16
  19. If you PM me your contact details I'll whatsapp them to him
  20. There's a Russian guy on the Global Supra WhatsApp group that has made moulds from a genuine TRD car and sells the TRD kit globally. Reports and pictures suggest fit is spot on.
  21. I've got a friend that's an estate manager whose boss had an Mk1 R8 V8. I went out in it a few times have to say I was rather disappointed with it.

    Radiator

    I've got a Mishimoto on my car.
  23. Already had a reply back from the companies Senior Product Manager. "Thanks for the enquiry regarding wheel speed sensors for Toyota Supra mk4 models. As you noted there doesn’t appear to be a source in the aftermarket for these currently, but it is something we can look into having developed. Do you know the original Toyota part numbers you’re looking for? What is availability of samples like? They will be necessary if we need to develop from scratch." I'll send him over the part numbers. Does anyone have any old sensors to hand that could be given to the suppliers if need be? They would need to be intact including connector, clips, brackets etc.
  24. I've just dropped an email to the R&D department of a UK company that supplies/manufactures ABS sensors. Hopefully they'll think it's worth a punt.
