  1. Also have the HKS Twin 3076 kit being fixed as well as something's on it I did not like. First the manifolds had the balance pipe removed. Marksupra is helping me with this and that should be sorted in the near future. Next is the oil returns from the turbos. I do not like the stock oil feed lines into the stock connection to the oil pan. Not efficient for me as I want AN lines fitted and the stock part welded up to accept the AN lines. Will take a picture to show. Need to find someone to help me with that. I pulled all heat shielding and wrap off to check fittings and such. One was smashed so I will have to replace but all others were still perfect. Compressor housings will go to DAW for polishing and Hks down pipe will be modified for 4 inch exhaust.
  2. So time for some updates.... Finally test fitting the Do-luck hood... I have some issues with it. Will take it to rob Mitchell and get it sorted. It needs to be shaved in a few areas as it hits the engine hook, VVT-I hump on carbon sp cover and my prize possession HKS Kansas Carbon strut brace doesn't fit. I think this is all due to the underside being repair/thicker than normal do-luck hoods. Also picking up the do-luck tensioner set from ibrar. Will also fit the aluminum do-luck floor braces on. I know have just about all do-luck parts for the supra except for the wing which isn't my style really.
  3. No mate I never got mine sorted either.... But f#*7 it. I'll get it back to the condition it was previously before going to that shop....
  4. Why does want the syvecs that I want....
  5. From what I learned while in Japan, non of the JZA80 specific model ECU's came with an immobiliser. That was only an option on early 98-99 JZS161 (aristo) models at least for the 2JZ-GTE ECU's. Hope this helps.
  6. I Love it.... So much for getting the viper.... If this makes it to production, I will have one. Also as far as price I can see it going after the Corvette Stingray 55,000-65000 USD. It would sell. Force induction is a must!
  7. Awesome thread. how come i haven't seen brad (Camry3sgte) or myself cars, huh graham? i thought we were family as well
  8. Civic or the swift? lol.j/k. Welcome to the brotherhood!
  9. Why? Two completely different things one is to pay condolescents to the man, this is to celebrate his taste in vehicles and he had a Supra in the garage...
  10. Damn I have gained even more respect for the man. He is and and will forever be known as a true gear head and a pioneer in the Supra World. Check out these cars. He had plenty of money but the cars in his garage speaks volumes of the type of man he was when it came to cars. RIP PW. http://news.boldride.com/2013/12/a-look-inside-paul-walkers-garage-photos/40263/
  11. As always mate its a pleasure coming to meet you and the rest of the bluewater crew. Guess I need to get on that group buy for the trackers that dude is selling. lol:search:
  12. Lol Mark. It was great to meet you. Actually you should really give me that veilside manifold as its one of the last parts I need to complete my collection... I'll even throw in some harribo's
  13. Pretty sure the do-luck does...
  14. Mark Just let me know when I can schedule my car with you.... lol. See you soon mate.
  15. i must admit as well kaan this looks fantastic. I will be going 3.4 as well. Hopefully we meet up as well. keep up all the good work. Really shows your dedication to this car after all the problems you had, I hope you are proud every time you see it. It will be a monster.
  16. All right chaps trying to see how much interest in having a December meet in the Cambridge/Peterborough/Suffolk/Norwich area. As quite a few of us tend to travel down to the blue water meet it would be nice if we can have something local as well? Ideas? In in as long as there is ( Curry or some sort of food) and somewhere warm to chat ( Pub) or whatever. Would like to do it before December 20th as everyone usually has last second shopping and such.
  17. Sounds interesting.... We should definitely do something local...
  18. James we should set-up a Cambridge/Suffolk/Norwich/Peterbourough mini meet? maybe go out for a curry or something?
  19. Welcome mate... Now you just need to get a supra...
  20. The ARC radiator was tested in the USA on Ken Henderson's Big Twin Supra. One of the Few radiators I've ever heard to have superior cooling capabilities over the stock radiator. It's what I have on my Supra as well. And while most recommend the stock clutch fan over any aftermarket setup, The SRD twin fan kit is no joke... Even running the car hard for extended periods my car never goes over set temperature parameters. The ARC/SRD setup is also extremely effective in stop and go traffic.
