  1. Steve - still waiting for mine to be delivered, it's been about a month now. Can you advise when it will be sent?
  2. sure is Decided to keep it now until next year and see what the market is like for selling then. Thought I'd do a couple of subtle enhancements in the meantime.

    Supra or GT-R

    ..... I'd have a 458.
  4. Lovely sound in that Video, you'll have to put up a vid when it's running and mapped properly
  5. When I had the old Silver Sup, The exhaust looked terrible on it, so I took some of that alloy wheel cleaner stuff to it.... came out a beauty after a while of it soaking in and breaking down whatever was stuck to it. It was only then I realised it was a HKS exhaust (couldn't see the "HKS" on the side before). I didn't take any before or after pics though
  6. No no, you're the one following the accuser without reading my post - tell me where I was "jumping on him like everyone else"?? I was asking a question Ellis, maybe you read back and see to get a whole picture before making an assumption....
  7. I'm asking as I'm taking part in an open discussion thread on a public forum - I'm sorry if you've taken offence by that and assume I'm jumping on him. I just thought a trader would openly want to put peoples minds at rest. I don't want to buy a car from him but have always looked at PBC when I've been looking at cars in the past, so if there isn't direct interest now, there could be in the future, so would be nice to know the answer. There was no criticism in my original post.
  8. You need to answer the questions here...... and that is, you sell a high BHP Supra, with full rebuilt engine etc etc, the works..... it blows up and is covered under your warrenty. What happens if you don't have the same spec parts in your garage? And how would the customer know the parts from the garage would be any good and wouldn't blow up in a couple of weeks anyway? Warranty with a warranty company means new parts, not 2nd hand.
  9. @Delboy52 - TBH mate I'm not sure..... I'll have to sift through the piles of paperwork and see if there is anything.
  10. @SteveC comment - if somethings changed this year, this would explain why my old GTR got through the MOT with a de-cat still on a couple of years ago, I completely forgot to change it and it still passed....
  11. wow, a worth while change then..... wonder what I'd need for a 1uz in the front? same as an N/A?

    A Plan

    Fair play to these guys..... I've got 2 cars - a v8 Supra and a 110bhp golf GTTDI 3 door. I rang up Direct Line to insure the Golf with NO NCB (as I want to start driving the Supra again and keep the NCB on that) and they refused me because I won't have at least 2 years NCB on it - even though I'm 33, no accidents in 5+ years, no speeding convictions.... So I ring up A-plan (I've been insured with them since 2006 on various cars) and they have agreed to insure both cars for a total of £1100 (give or take a few quid) and the underwriter has agreed to give a discount on the golf that matches 9 years NCB which is what I have on the Supra. I'm well happy, I can drive the Supra again from Monday!!!
  13. so in the pic is an example of a full interior I assume, looks very impressive and have always liked the flock effect. Roughly how much and how long would a full interior take? You can PM if you prefer
  14. Looks nice, I'm always keeping an eye on the cars Jurgen sells, on every forum I've only ever read good reviews about the cars and the overall experience of buying one from him. This does need to have some black TE37's on though, coilovers, carbon lip, OEM skirts and one of those carbon diffuser things on the back - but that's just my opinion
  15. I'm not one for changing things like lights on a car..... and this is another example of a FAIL.
  16. Force for me out of the 2, however I do like the GTR-D wheels
  17. ah I see, my apologies I thought it was speed bumps - why I assumed this I do not know..... Now I understand your predicament lol
  18. Looking at the 2nd pic it seems the front lip is the same height from the ground as your skirts...... is it how you enter the speed bumps that could be the issue? Maybe still breaking as you go up it so the front is then forced lower? Just wondered
