What are s2k seats? Look like celica? Did you pick these up in ireland? I was looking on donedeal for celica seats but can't find much. Also did you add the seat heaters or are they part of the seat?

Bulb could be gone mate. Has the switch got a light on it? If so turn it on & see does the light come on, if not turn on the lights & check again. If the switch only lights up when lights are on then i would guess it's a fog switch. Worth checking your bulb either way (should be on driver side).
-
Side lights will only alow front fogs, you need to have your dipp beam on for rear fog to work.
-
Not to bad, your only about 3 secs slower than Brian O Conner's highly tuna ed Supra

Is it just me or does that yellow supra looks like a calibra from the front?
-
You can just pull out the bulb on the dash for the rear light out sign.

Airbag warning light after replacing OEM steering wheel
Suprab1 replied to RB-GTE's topic in mkiv Technical
Thats exactly what it does. The only person on here i can think of is hecklor i think is his user name, he does the LED conversion. I'm guessing your in UK? I've had to use them before to get cars threw the NCT test if the clock spring was faulty & bringing on the airbag light. If you have no luck let me know & i will try the lad where i get them & see if he can help. -
Airbag warning light after replacing OEM steering wheel
Suprab1 replied to RB-GTE's topic in mkiv Technical
If you havn't got a steering wheel with an air bag then get a resistor & plug it into your airbag loom. This way your light will function the same as there was a bag in there & you should have no problems with MOT. -
Is that really oil on your finger? It looks like just black exhaust crap that is getting wet because the car is running. The white smoke looks normal to me. Does anyone have a supra with an aftermarket exhaust that doesn't smoke a little on idle?

Power steering rack?

The nut is a great idea if you know how to fit an oil filter properly. The 1.4 vw/seat engine has this & nearly every one i get in for a service it has been way over tightened & just brakes the bolt of anyway. This leading to alot of swearing & name calling lol. The last one i had i had to put a oil filter vice grip type with a long bar attached to remove it, this was after snapping 2 filter straps.

Mahle filter as that's what filters we use at work.

Cars that are registered before 95 might be tested at idle but not high rpm. Pre 95 needs no cat & will pass idle emissions.

Smaller eletric fans on the passenger side not working when hot??
Suprab1 replied to Brazil's topic in Supra Chat
I was sure the large electric fan at the front was AC & the small bottom left hand side was a back up to the big fan. - - - Updated - - - I was sure the large electric fan at the front was AC & the small bottom left hand side was a back up to the big fan. -
Euro spec & uk spec are the same AFAIK.

car difficult to start after short trips, or when warm
Suprab1 replied to Lude's topic in mkiv Technical
Well, any update on this? Normally if it was crank sensor acting up when warm you need to let it cool down before it will start again. Still i have never came across this with a toyota so i suppose different symptoms maybe. -
I've had my supra for about 7 years & only noticed that light about a year ago. It never worked so i checked the bulb, it had been taking out. I replaced it & the light stayed on so i just took it back out again. I've never had a problem with my supra but after reading this my door was probably open so i must check it again.

Sound man, thanks.

-
Yeah but the were designed for the car, it's rare to find many other 17" that will clear them.
-
Think you need atleast 18" wheels aswell.
-
Just a quick question, is the stock oil cooler air cooled (up front like evo/after market) or are they water cooled on filter housing?
-
Keep an eye on coolant levels & oil levels, if they stay where they are supose to be it's probably water in the exhaust. At the end of the day they are an old polluting sports car, add a straight through & decat & chances are you will see & smell something out the exhaust.
-
I'd say i'ts fine, any car i've had with a modified exhaust i could see some white smoke on idle. For some reason it always looks worse in the mirror. I have never seen any whilst driving though.
