  1. I reckon you need to get on Supra forums and checkout the weight saving thread, its a good read bud
  2. A decent set of long nose pliers or long nose mole grips work best
  3. I should have a complete TT transplant ready to roll by next month if you are Interested buddy pm me. Just about to do a water pump replacement and a cam belt change before the removal and then carry out a compression test and then she should be good to roll.
  4. Just the skirts being failside as apposed to his original Bomex skirts , top effort though
  5. this time of year with the cold temps will be causing the boost to spike at points, i would fit one buddy
  6. am i the only one who uses a wind tunnel for testing flow
  7. Uh oh, if anyone know then I guess it's you Rob, what should I be using?
  8. Next on the agenda was sourcing a Chrome TRD Strut Brace which i got from JohnnyG (many thanks Johnny) Its was a little dirty when i recieved it but i was expecting that due to Johhny having his car Broken, so off for a clean Some polishing and elbow grease applied, can you guess the polish i used I also bought some Wing covers to go with the Brace which needed a buff also: Before: 50/50: Finished:
  9. I was looking through my Stockholm pics and noticed that a few of the standard factory cars have triangulated braces like the Fisker Karma below
  10. Thanks mate, Liam really should get some sort of Hobbyist account on here as his attention to detail and aim to please attitude would compliment that of the best traders on the site. I have another MVP Lip, which i will be getting Liam to give the same treatment when he get a little time to himself:) Poor pic, but the general fit and finish can be seen: The little white specs are dust in case anyone was wondering
  11. Thanks Geo I decided that i was gonna have a quiet Hogmanay with the Wife, she decides that i should put the Christmas decorations in the loft, so off i went up the ladders to the loft, then slip, fall, but no crash!!!! that's cause i was left hanging from the ladders from my hand . So i watched the New Year come in on the way to A&E, managed to fracture my hand in only one place which i reckon is lucky considering, was in and out of the hospital in 40mins, which must be some sort of record, given the occasion
  12. First thing i did was give my MVP Lip to Liamsy on here to cut the ears off and coat it in a finish which resembles the OEM Active spoiler blade texture, I was really amazed with the finish and the pics really don't do it justice (Cheers Liam) Almost there, sorry for catching you in the pic Liam
  13. These are the plans for 2013 bud, pics of the current progress will appear once this hand of mine is less fractured
  14. Right so 2013 is upon us, so its time to update this thread with a few small updates on plans. - TRD Wing - TT Transplant - UK Brakes all round - Chrome TRD Strut Brace - MVP Lip with ear removed (Completed) - GZ Leather seats (complete) - OEM Side Skirt removal and replaced with OEM Side Pods and Arch-liners/Sill Trim - BPU - Stubby Aerial (Completed) - ENJOY!!!!!
  15. Could be up for this, I dont drink so can save alot of money that way
  16. I reckon with the decreasing supply from Japan, and the huge following these Sup's have, its a matter of time before they start to gain value, pristine original examples of most cars hold their value to that of their altered/modified counterparts.
  17. Dedication to the cause!!!
  18. Maybe the wife got the lights in her settlement , on a serious note i was LED to believe his former car now resides in Coatbridge, near Glasgow
  19. Is the Spec S not a single Solenoid BC as apposed to the Dual Solenoid used in the Spec R
  20. SPG

    Newbie saying hi

    Welcome to the Club
  21. Looks like you might be needing a new 02 Sensor, if you have not already relaced it then i would definately be looking to replacing it now. I had some serious missfiring on my old NA-TT and after changing all the clips and coils + Plugs i still had the miss, after changing out the dodgy 02 Sensor she was purring like a kitten. Any reason why you did not get Ryan to MAP your Syvecs?
  22. If you are keen on the look then Pm me bud, as I am just about to put a set up for sale with looms and bulbs
  23. Just as a heads up, he is selling a V161, not a V160 as you had stated buddy , also the diff being a A02b will be a different ratio to that which would appear in a TT manual, where a B03b would be in place on a J-spec. I think A02b LSD were found in TT-Auto's and SZ-R NA-6 sups.
