  4. Long shot!!! Anyone up for a meet tonight?????????????? Im near Margate!!!! Cheers Mike
  5. Nathan, did not expect you to answer here, was just after peoples views and suggestions!!! Nor would I post your reply here. Thanks. Mike.
  6. Hi there, I now own Mr Graham Rudd’s car and have done for a few months. As Nathan probably already knows from the supra forum. Any way the car currently has this list of mods. Hybrid Turbos (larger compressor and steel internals) Blitz Access ECU HKS EVC4 Boost Controller HKS 'R' Spec FMIC (Good for 860bhp) HKS Cams 256 In, 264 Ex ERL Water Injection HKS Super Powerflow Induction Kit (Mushroom) TDI Uprated fuel pump able to deliver 25%-65% more fuel than UK Spec CentreForce Heavy duty clutch Racelogic Adjustable traction control + launch Super Drager 'Priest' exhaust (Fully SS) B&M Short Shift Kit, stock shifter and leather gear knob available HKS Rear cat replacement pipe Chris Wilson Front Cat replacement pipe (not fitted) HKS Sequential Super Blow-Off (dump) Valve Greddy boost gauge in stock clock position A good percentage of, was supplied, fitted and setup by you guys. Im just wondering if you could possible give me an idea of how to squeeze some more power from the car. Obviously I require approx cost from your selves to do this. As I see it, there are two options, but please correct me if im wrong!! Sort the fuelling out and run higher boost levels than the the 1.2bar I currently have. As you guys know the car I was hoping you could tell me what the hybrids are capable of, that you fitted to it. Also dose the car have the up rated injectors and how well is the ecu currently fuelling the car???? A big single turbo conversion. The car has now done 63000 miles so please also consider any engine maintains that may need to be done for either of the above? Also could you possible tell me when the cam belt was done? I am guessing that it would have been done at appro 52000 when Graham brought the car to you guys to have the hybrids fitted etc. Just need approx figures and ideas now as I plan to do this work at the end of the summer. Many Thanks.
  7. I find the jap brakes ok, till you strat doing 90+ obviously they were never desighned for lots of speed, so just use them with that in mind. Like me 178 lepton run, I made sure there was no planes on the air field what so ever!!!!
  8. Im must be mad, As I prefer the Green stuff pads over the CW ones as me wheels now stay clean and shiney!!! It would appear I rate posing over stopping, oops. Won't comment on stopping power as I tend to not give them to mush stick so i don't start melting things. I have jap brakes!!!!
  9. I belive the 400 mark!!!
  10. Currently have 235's on 9's on the front and 265's on 10's on the back, just woundered if it's worth going larger after i wear these babies out!!!!
  11. What is the optimum tyre width to run on 18's front and back? Is wider always better?
  12. How do I get rid of this nasty wadding, have I got wadding. Must scare small children!!!!
  13. Have you got the small jap breaks darren?
  14. Wheres my mannors, cheers everyone!!!
  15. Thanks Darren, not sure what the orignal wheels were, now has 18's, it's a 93/94L 6 speed jap spec.
  16. Anyone no the part number for jap rear pads? Are they the same as the uk pads? Thanks.
  17. Well i saw him once, never licked tall people!!!! No Graham I only used your figures as appox reading. So im not aving a go Sir!!! I well chuffed, got her valeted last week, the chap spent four hours on the wheels and there now amazing!!!
  18. Silly me!!!! Did I not say that I consulted God first, and asked him if he was going to screw me if I took the sup for one test drive!!!!!! Well I did, and I can say, the big chief is true to his word!!!! But cheers Nathan, the more sups in the world the better, ah!!!!
  19. Nathan. Your spot on Sir, why did I try and fix what ain't broke!!! Well it's simple, I had the pipe there so I thought I would get it fitted!! Thought if anything it may sound better, which it did!!! It's a bit of luck I did in the end as my cousin who fitted it had to strip out a whole load of bits and weld new studs in due to the thread being Fu**** on the originals, basically the exhaust was blowing a small amount. Anyway from what Chris said, looks like im better off keeping the cat on there for ever more. (Cheers Chris!!!!!!) As for the longevity of the car, the cat was of for one test drive only!! Also the beastie hasn't drunk any oil in 2000 miles of ownership so im content. Thanks for all the advice guys!!!
  20. Ah also just for the record I was NOT trying to dis the previous owner or Chris as I new I had approx info form the owner which i was surppling to chris!!
  21. That was meant to read. WAS NOT MEANT TO....................
  22. Yes I do have a boost controller that is set to 1.2. With the cat on it is dead on 1.2 bar, always!! It seems to over boost regardless of the boost controller being on or not. Ah also just for the record I was trying to dis the previous owner or Chris as I new I had approx info form the owner which i was surppling to chris!!
