  1. Cheers for that will give them a try, have to say am quite shocked that pay over 3k for kit and the oil lines aren’t assembled when they need proper AN spanner’s to not damage the fittings
  2. I have done and he said kits come with hose that needs cutting to length that’s why after company to make them for me
  3. I am at my wits end with braided hose and AN connectors. Does anyone know of a company that makes braided hose to order with the fittings already on please? It’s for my turbo feed and drain lines on Whifbitz na-t kit. Been fighting the lines and fittings for 3 weeks now have ordered countless AN spanners some fit some don’t and just had enough now, need to get these on ASAP so can finally fit rest of kit and get her fired up and get wings back on, please surly there has to be a company that does this service
  4. Hi bud I had sort out and found part your after, send us a PM and can sort sending it to you.
  5. I am having garage sort out over weekend, and know have got one so will dig it out for you
  6. I would say 100% replace flywheel bolts with new, bloke who replaced my flywheel didn’t fit the new ARP flywheel bolts I provided and about year after my flywheel bolts came undone while driving.
  7. I will take the rad cap if still available please? If so pm me and will send over funds by PayPal
  8. Update part 2. I fitted the front crash bar, refitted front cross member, fitted new timing cover and trimmed cam cover to fit also I fitted and plumbed in oil cooler. The oil cooler is only temporary fitted as waiting for intercooler to turn up so can fit oil cooler in right position. I ordered the Whifbitz NA-T on 3rd August and Paul said would be 3-4 weeks delivery so waiting now for that to turn up now to continue with build, I also spoke to lee at SRD about battery relocation kit so once turbo kit fitted will get that ordered and fitted. To protect engine bay from heat of turbo I have purchased DEI titanium heat wrap to cover manifold and downpipe plus cover for turbo it’s self. I ran the car this weekend for good 30 minutes to test for leak on oil cooler and get oil up to temperature and double check everything still fine and no leaks in preparation of turbo kit turning up. Forgot to add I also finished wiring the nos system back into engine bay, bleed power steering system and painted and refitted spark plug cover. Fingers crossed turbo kit turns up soon so can get that heat wrapped and fitted, then make brackets for oil cooler at work and get front wings painted/refitted then just need to orders new bomex bumper and carbon bonnet.
  9. Haven’t updated this for a month as been busy building reptile viv’s. So few weeks ago I purchased from member on hear front crash bar modified to fit bomex front bumper, when it turned up the ends looked bit of mess.
  10. Another option you could look at is a wet nos kit, you can one fitted for around £1000 and run a 75 shot and that will make a huge difference coming out corners and getting power down. I fitted kit to mine and it made a world of difference
  11. Them front wings look stunning, look forward to cin finished result after rear arches done and painted. Think she’s going to look amazing
  12. Just been playing your video over and over again on you tube and have you had anything done to clutch at all. As the noise sounds similar to mine when I thought it was bottom end gone but strip engine only to find flywheel bolts were loose, I know it’s a long shot but comparing your video to my video, they do sound similar. It’s not letting me post up my video but if you pm me your email I will send my video to you so you can compare yourself.
  13. That’s very impressive that gearbox has done very well to carry for 3 years at that power level
  14. Cars looking stunning and gutting about gearbox finally giving up ghost, but at least next year your be able to enjoy car more with better box. If don’t mind me asking how much power was you putting through gearbox?
  15. I have had some amazing savings on tools using trade card
  16. Payment sent mate for front crash bar
  17. I can’t remember how much paid for cowling, got it couple years ago. The fan itself I got from Whifbitz for £201 delivered.
  18. Well bit of funny update,had some free time this morning so decided to try find electrical problem on supra. After checking all my earths were tight and clean, checked my sensor connections and everyone seemed fine. So thought I know would do the paperclip trick to work out what code flashing, only to open to diagnostic box to find this....lol Did make me laugh, when see the paperclip, I must of forgotten about it when 1st started engine up (total idiot lol). At least now that’s one problem sorted put key in and no flashing engine light....funny happy day.
  19. Them seats look stunning and pleased you found problem, like you say can enjoy the car now
  20. Well over weekend I fitted new TT cooling fan from Whifbitz and cleaned and repainted fan cover and ran the car for few minutes before she died. While running noticed one blade of fan was catching fan cover so have adjusted that, and replaced vac as found split and could hear slight Wistling from it, must of caught it when had fan resting on engine. Have ordered new upper timing cover from Toyota and clear cam cover to show off cam verniers. Also my Millars 10w40 running in oil turned up yesterday, so can drop oil this weekend and fill with fresh and run her bit more to check got no more vac leaks, also seem to have electrical issue as engine light is flashing when ignition on, so will check connections, if can’t find anything will see if can get find local person to come and check the wiring.
  21. Well the new Toyota TT cooling fan turned today from Whifbitz, will get that fitted over weekend. Still waiting for the running in oil to turn up but hopefully be here end of week and can do oil change.
  22. My misses is good like that and doesn’t complain too much about what I spend [emoji4]. And thank you it would I been shame to walk away and think I would of regretted it for years to come.
