  1. doing it myself. The main engine work is already done overbore to i think 87mm which make it almost 3.1. i would love a solaris just have to see what the funds are like when it comes to that time.
  2. cheers mate should look well when everything gets polished up
  3. cheers jamie rebuilt engine all arp bolts, wossner pistons, hks headgasket, 850cc injectors, bosch 044, manual conversion hopefully, havnt made up my mind on a ecu
  4. dont know about huge but will defo be a power hike
  5. sometime in the new year mate. lol. I hope to have it finished for the start of the summer before the meets and drags start.
  6. i dont know for sure i bought it out of japan the seller said it was hks but i'm not sure but the manifold and exhaust are realy well made although a old design and the turbos are garret T300s
  7. test fitted my new turbos on my engine today while i have it out of the car and i have to say they look very nice:d.
  8. i wonder if thats the supra that was laying at AI autosports. Some guy had built the engine to a massive spec and decided to map the car himself on their RR but wrecked the engine trying to map it. As far as i know it was a really bad shell and they bought the car off the owner and built it into a silver one, maybe that was it
  9. He sould be able to run with the twins the way i described as long as i was only to get it registered in the country but to pass emmission test could be a harder and might require a set of cats be fitted and depending on what sort of fuel and management system the car is runing
  10. i think the only thing you can do is put on the complete stock twin turbos with a decat pipe which should connect to your main exhaust system aslong a its not custom aswell. I take it as long as the car is running it would be enought to get it imported as some of the wiring and vacum pipes that control the sequential system probably has been removed when the single was fitted but aslong as you have the water and oil feeds to the standard turbos them you should be able to run them in true twin turbo mode if you have a boost controller and get your ecu maped temp for the car to run with them. Well i think that should work but some of the more experienced members might be able to suggest a better way
  11. 3 year past in the summer. Has been my every day driver, not that i do big miles, 20k in that time but is going to be my good day toy after i fit the big twins and my other bits and pieces.
  12. LOL sounds like one of the many machines a vechicle is tested with over here as last good number of years. Should give you an idea how good the car have to be over here to get a MOT. By the way the cars looking good mate:thumbs:
  13. http://www.megavideo.com/?v=9EGEBK3W Here is a link to the whole ufc118 with all the fights
  14. found a video of dave gilmore and rodger waters playing live on the 10th july this year. Didnt think i would see that again:) http://veehd.com/video/4514565_Dave-Gilmoure-and-Roger-Waters-live-10-7-2010-mp4
  15. The largest car breaker near me got in a supecharged manual corvette a while back. My mate was looking at it to put into his wifes omega! £3000 for engine, box, loom everything that you would have needed. I think one of the local drifters snapped it up and is now in nissan 200.
  16. I dont know mark but they are recaros so you would think the seat rail that will work on the recaros that come in supras would work on these. A set of bride type rails might work i think thats what jamiep used when he had the recaros out of a evo in his car.
  17. I know what you mean. lol The good thing about them is that they dont have VRX stuck on them anywhere:)
  18. I think they are well priced One of the corsa's has about 15000 miles on it and another one about 6 so the seats are like new.
  19. Was wondering what yous think of these seats. A mate owns a vauxhall breakers and has a couple of vxr corsa's in for breaking and i was thinking of a pair of the recaros that come's in them in to my supra. He's looking for about £650 for the full interior which you could sell the rest of it on. Dont know what to do.
  20. pity Chris for they are prob the closest thing to a factory race bike on the road:(
  21. Nice, classic italian racer with a good history. The RS250 is a lovely thing to ride but you just cant go slow on them your always want to rev the nut off them to hear that glourious two stoke note especially if someone has fitted race pipes like was on the one we had. The only thing they really do need is a steering damper for they are that light and if you hit a bump when giving it hard acceleration they can shake the bars on you.
