  1. No imi, it just comes with the hard pipe from the turbo to the intercooler. When you order the kit, you get to choose from a few pipes for different intercoolers, HKS, Greddy etc. I think.
  2. Silicone lubricant, you can get a spray can from Halfrauds. Just spray it on to the rubber and then wipe it off, it softens up the rubber and helps it seal.
  3. Sounds like turbo oil seals I'm afraid
  4. Really not a good idea, those tyres are far too wide for your rims. You're compromising the only thing that keeps you in contact with the road. Rather you than me...
  5. Yup Simon is correct, US and UK spec only as they use a MAF for fuelling. Jap cars run a slightly different system and absolutely can't do this. You will kill your car!
  6. That's just the speedo over-reading by 10%, that's the 155mph limit. 172-10%=154.8mph
  7. Waiting at the roadworks going towards Sidley, I went passed in my girlfriend's red GT-Four
  8. Good point, my Recaro's sit a lot lower than the standard seats. My girlfriend is only short and has trouble seeing over the dash lol.. I wonder also if there's less headroom in the aerotop because of the thickness of the panels?
  9. There's loads of members over that way, but if nobody else offers then I'm in Hastings and you're welcome to come and see if you can fit in ok!
  10. Could have been, can't remember properly now as it was a few weeks ago!
  11. Now picked up, nice to meet you Si, hope you had a good trip back home!
  12. And yes, leaded petrol will kill the cats and block them up so performance will be affected. It's possible that it will cause enough of a restriction that you'll also raise the EGT's and cause problems through that too. I'd either get new cats or go de-cat.
  13. Thing is imi, how are you going to use it? Are you really going to notice a turbo running out of steam at the high end? We're talking high-speed very high-hp levels here. If you want an everyday streetable car with fast acceleration then the smaller turbo on a cast manifold makes more sense. It's still gonna pull 500+bhp and hit over 180mph quite happilly!
  14. The diff is inside the gearbox on those, you might as well just find an LSD box to sling on it, won't be expensive.. Nice cars though
  15. I did think both those points. But doesn't paypal only cover you on purchases up to £500 anyway? This is kind of why I wondered if anybody had bitten the bullet as such and tried them already.
  16. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/OS-GIKEN-STR2CD-TWIN-CLUTCH-SUPRA-TT-JZA80-2JZ-GTE_W0QQitemZ280205703632QQihZ018QQcategoryZ43120QQrdZ1QQssPageNameZWD1VQQ_trksidZp1638.m118.l1247QQcmdZViewItem This just seems too cheap to be true for an OS Giken twin plate for a TT Supra? Quotes I've had so far for a twin plate have been around £1100+VAT, but I'm also sure they've been for a slightly different model? Anybody used this seller or had any experiences etc.? Cheers,
  17. No no no, even if they did fit properly they're some of the worst budget tyres you can buy. It's a Supra not a Fiesta!
  18. Joe has a car, which I believe is the one Wayne went out in and took the video of, which is a US-spec car with just the street kit on it, no intercooler or ECU mods at all, just to show that the kit can ran without supporting mods. IIRC, this opened a large can of worms on here of people arguing whether or not this was such a good idea
  19. Just to add now that all the parts are now here from the US so it's a ready to go kit, including the adaptor needed to fit it to a RHD drive car, and also the UK first decat which means it will fit straight up to any UK or J-Spec car without any faffing about.
  20. The way it's going, it'll still bloody be here
  21. Pair of rear UK light clusters, including looms and bulbs. Slight scratching around the lock hole, otherwise in pretty good condition. Only selling as I've now got Heckler's old rear's with the clear indicator comversion. £55 delivered http://www.i-macca.co.uk/temp/supeukrears1.jpg http://www.i-macca.co.uk/temp/supeukrears2.jpg http://www.i-macca.co.uk/temp/supeukrears3.jpg http://www.i-macca.co.uk/temp/supeukrears4.jpg http://www.i-macca.co.uk/temp/supeukrears5.jpg
  22. Just saw you out the corner of my eye, heading towards Hastings..
