  1. If you're willing to let it go for that cheaply why not try Ebaying it?
  2. Give it a heater matrix for christmas, I did
  3. JamesF

    R32 gts-t

    80's Camaro I think? Sounds cheap. Whats the specs?
  4. Thats what I meant when I said it. Obviously four 4" pipes would look obscene but something like this might work, but not on an orange supra
  5. Ive always thought that a despoilered, expensive wheeled supra with dual exit pipes would look the business... Go ahead - Prove us wrong!
  6. Aha. Cheap fix ahoy. How did you bypass it, simply join the two hoses together? Might just budget for it for when I ship it off to Jezz's for the TT conversion.
  7. The Altezza with the BEAMS engine is the RS200. Standard IS200s only have 150bhp and Ive read on a few forums that theyre a bit disappointing performance wise. I went from a 194bhp Peugeot 406 Coupe (comparable to a NA supra performance wise) to a mk4 Golf GTI 1.8T with 150bhp and found the drop in power quite severe and noticable. That said, the IS200 is a 6 cylinder and sounds lovely.
  8. I like this one http://www.american-architecture.info/USA/USA-Washington/red-indian-2.jpg
  9. Well to be fair Ive been reading up on the thing about bypassing the matrix/blocking the matrix off and Im not overly keen on the idea. I dont like the idea of a) coolant moving too fast through the engine or b) the heat spread and hot spots across the head thats been mentioned. And to be fair, it still needs to be replaced, so why not do it while Ive got the carpet and seats out and my Dads off work... The issue with the £500 price is trailering The supra at 50mph to drive from Lancashire to Northants. It would be a bit of a mission. Plus stripping the car down doesnt look impossible, it just looks like an enormous pain in the arse. That'll be character building
  10. I thought it would be hellaciously expensive (Even though Jezz's price is good, Id have to trailer it the 170miles down there so its a false economy). Looks like Ill have a bash at it myself then.
  11. How much are places charging for changing a (broken) heated matrix? Inc parts and labour etc. James
  12. Eh? Am I the only one thats confused?
  13. Anyone got a heater matrix? Preferably new? James
  14. Looks a little questionable. The email address for questions etc doesnt match the seller ID. Email is saj_saleem and the Ebay seller is Adam123 or something similar. Also it says the car is 10 years old. And a 1993? Reckon the guy is re-registering to sell it so he doesnt come across as being desperate to get rid, and in turn is making the car look like it has problems and people keep selling it on. The fool.
  15. What you planning mate? Something engine wise for the NA?
  16. These arent the Audi RS4 seats... The RS4 seats are these:
  17. Whenever you talk about your piece, the eyes in your avatar follow me around the room and make me feel uncomfortable
  18. You sir, are a hat wearing Prince! Have some treasure! http://images.birthdayinabox.com/BIABviewLarger/PirateTreasure.jpg
  19. Not knocking the workmanship thats gone into that as it looks top drawer, but I cant see why anyone would do that to whats a perfectly good, respectable, cult performance car. I think Id actually prefer a nice Integra type R to an R34 anyway...
  20. Flux by Bloc Party reminds me of my 3.0 V6 406 Coupe (I miss that car. If I see one thats LPG converted Im buying it for a daily driver)
