  1. hey man that was me i was working in hampshire court hotel over the past week, i was blurry eyed as well and didnt realise you were next to me til i had gone past. great looking supra mate and im guessing some good bhp with the 2 bar tuning sticker on the rear!!!
  2. i'm seeing my friend tonight so i will see if he has any bay pics. i know what you mean gaz, this car truly is stunning and immaculate, but im sure it would be great for any mad plans you have lol
  3. Right here is my beloved UK Ralliart Mitsubishi Evolution 6 - Tommi Makinen Edition 

It is a 2001 51reg, in Pyrenees Black Pearl. It has covered 68,600 genuine well documented miles. The car is a Genuine UK Model and is number 187. The car has a full service history with regular services at 4.5k miles. Those who have done their research know this is a rare and sought after car, especially in as good condition as this one. The car has an MOT valid until September and Tax until the end of August.

I have owned this car for 2 years now and it has been my pride and joy. It has been used as my daily drive up until early this year and has never let me down. I adore it and love driving it. It has given me great pleasure in my ownership and it really is a special/exciting car to drive, right from the minute you turn the key.

This car might be recognised by a few, it has been owned by enthusiasts throughout its life in the UK, I can honestly say I have never owned a car with such a well documented history. I travelled around 400 miles to get this car. It has been regularly serviced by Mitsubishi Main Dealers and more lately by Mark Shead at M.A. Developments. It has plenty of receipts to show its history, all past MOTs, service receipts and parts receipts have been kept. It recently had both rear arms replaced (mitsubishi had said these were changed under warrantee but i was not convinced and had the work carried out), camshaft pulley replaced and full brand new brake lines/pipes fitted all with Mark at M.A.Developments. The cam-belt has been replaced twice in its life, the first at 33,000 miles and for a second time at 46,000 miles. It had a replacement clutch fitted just weeks before I collected the car when i bought it. 
The body work is in fantastic condition for its age, it is a genuine straight honest car. The interior is also in fantastic original condition. Any AA or data inspection is welcomed. I take great pride in owning this car and in cleaning it weekly, often spending hours claying/ washing/ waxing and sealing it. I am a perfectionist and I think it shows when you see how lovely this car is in person. I have tried to keep the car as original as possible, but it does have some very subtle minor modifications. Modifications:

Engine & Drivetrain:
- Full 3” Magnex Stainless Steel exhaust from turbo elbow to 5” exit - 3” Stainless Steel Magnex Downpipe - Decat 
- K&N induction kit - Filter only - HKS SSQV Blow off Valve The car has been setup to run a nice 15psi - this is enough to be fast and also prevents the car from hitting fuel cut because of the exhaust and decat modifications. 

Handling & Braking: 
- Genuine 17" Enkei Tommi Makinen alloy wheels in white in superb condition
- 4 x Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 225/45/r17 tyres with stiffer side walls (2 front tyres will be bought and fitted before the car is sold as the tread is getting low - rears look nearly new) The car was recently laser aligned and set-up for fast road/ track use - carried out at Motorworx in Marlow when rear arms were replaced. (next to M.A.Developments) - Brand new Performance Friction 1001.11 pads 
- Drilled and grooved all round discs
- Motul RBF600 High Performance Brake Fluid Electronics: 
- Tracker fitted
 - Red Boost and Oil temp Gauges mounted neatly in the A-pillar
 - Clifford Concept 650 Alarm with proximity sensor, tilt sensors and glass breaker sensors.


 - Kenwood stereo and speakers This car has been flawless in the time I've owned it  I have enjoyed every minute, and will be very sad to see it leave, but a new Job (commute to work) and looking into buying property forces a regrettable sale. It really does turn heads for all the right reasons! Everything has been replaced or upgraded when needed. No expense has been spared on this car it has been my pride and joy. I am after £10,695 for this car. I am not looking for any part exchange. No tyre kickers, No timewasters and strictly no test drives without proof of insurance. However if you are serious about buying the car i will more than happily take you out for a drive in it. The car is located in Reading, Berkshire. Im sure i would have missed some details so if there are any further questions, please feel free to email or call me. call - 07900204589 or email - [email protected] I would prefer calls after 5.30 due to work commitments, but will do my best to answer when I can. Thanks, Shane. Anyway heres a bunch of pictures  And lastly the day i picked her up!! Thanks for viewing.

  6. hey guys i have given myself a bit of a headache with this one. i have tried the search button but i cant find what i am looking for. soon i will be going for a tt conversion (can't wait[COOL][/COOL]), i have an uprated clutch but i think my gear ratios will restrict the top end of my car and i was wondering how to increase the length of my gears at a later date. i know the diffs do make big differences from looking at homers spreadsheet but say i bought an auto tt torsen diff, would i need tt props, and would that mate with the w58 box?? or will i have to have different props front and back?? thanks in advance for any help Reece
  7. to answer the guys wanting to fit recaros that are bottom mounted it can be done in a very similar way. i bought low slung sliding rails and fabricated to identical looking brackets to bolt to. it works a treat and now i have low seated sliding recaros in. IIRC it cost me about 150 quid to do both seats.
  8. came past me in the fast lane, apologies for no acknowledgement but i was in my own little world playing the fuel consumption game!! great looking supra though!!
