  1. That looks fantastic! I love black bits on a red car, just looks bang tidy!
  2. Hi Geo, does the lexus ls400 oil filter just screw straight on, or does it require an adaptor?
  3. Thanks Rob! You shouldnt feel bad mate its a good price, if these were made by HKS or Greddy etc I'm sure they would cost alot more than what you are charging including P&P! I'm going for a purple colour code on my engine bay, I already have the silicone couplers and vacuum hoses Will you be looking to make other stuff for the Supra?
  4. Still a great price Rob, i'm looking forward to my purple set, Yeah!
  5. Amazing work dude, I love these transformations!
  6. I usually prefer the Supra with a rear Wing, but this car is the only exeption for me! Great looking car, and well deserved
  7. How is the hose attatched to the autobox from the cooler? With a jubalee clip? Thanks.
  8. Thanks Matt & Scott, I just needed some confirmation as it was an old write up and I thought maybe someone worked out a better spot for the plumbing of the tpeice. Thanks again:)
  9. Thanks Rob, that gives me the confidence I need to buy it
  10. Great work Rob, what was wrong with the Ridox bumper then? I am thinking of ordering this bumper from Knight-racer myself, but if its too much of a hassle to get it fitted then I wont bother.
  11. Hi there, I have recently purchased a new Defi Boost gauge off a friend, who intented on fitting it to his Mitsubishi Legnum VR-4. He has since decided to break his car, so this was up for grabs. Now comes the issue I am having, I am not sure of the best place to install the vacuum pipe going to the Boost sensor for the Gauge? On the old MKIV.COM forum I found a Install Guide, it says to cut the pipe going to the sensor on the intake manifold and inserting the T-peice in between that. Is this still regarded as the best pipe to cut to install the T-peice? Any help would be great, Thanks
  12. Get the ASI Rad off eBay, or the rads srd and keron sell, bolts straight in and the stock fan shroud fits straight on.
  13. You have done well with both matey Now make sure keep up with the maintenance on both
  14. Thanks for your valuable input guys! the only reason I was considering swapping is because, my relative who has an RX7 has a spare set of Vredesteins he doesn't need and offered them to me as a gift for helping him Polish his car
  15. Hi Guys, I just wanted to know if 265 35 18 tyres will fit on the front wheels on my supra without rubbing against the arches? I am currently running 255 35 18's. I have 9.5" wide front wheels, and the offset is +45 I think, and my arches aren't rolled or anything like that. Also, If I have 265 fronts will my rears have to be 285's? As I am currently running 275's on a 10.5" wide wheel. I have noticed with most members on here running two sizes wider on the rear? Thanks

  17. The HKS cam gears listed on eBay are prone to belt slipping. They are the older model, the newe HKS cam gears with the grey teeth are the one's to go for.
  18. I love the EP3! Best of luck selling it, great price too!
  19. I'm really liking the Infinity range Chris, good find The cheap stuff might not look pretty but if they are reliable then I guess it's a no brainer for people on a budget.
  20. Hi all, I am after a front n/s wheel hub in good condition, the wheel bearing must be in good condition, the less mileage the better. I am after a non-ABS hub unless the hubs with ABS fit onto my non-ABS car. Thanks
  21. Before I decided to go NA-TT I seriously considered the NA-T route. From my research I remember running 7-8psi was considered "safe" with the stock compression of 10:1. This boost pressure would give you around 300hp with the added responsiveness of a high compression engine. This really appealed to me as I like quick accelerating car's. If you want more power then the only way to safely up the boost levels is to lower the compression of the engine, and the best way to do it is to drop in a set of 2JZGTE pistons, replacing the headgasket for a thicker one isn't the way to do it. The reason I didn't go down this route was because I can only drive Auto's because of an ankle injury, and the NA autobox isn't strong enough to cope with the jump in the torque levels. Thats why I went for the NA-TT route as the GTE autobox can handle alot more torque than the GE version. David2009 has recently figured out how to install the GTE autbox to the GE engine. With a good budget the NA-T route is a very viable and reliable option.
