  1. I'm not really sure about the exhaust, maybe you are right but not just that, the front lip catches at time that why i would like a slight height increase. Just looking for opinion, so if i carry it out what height wouldnt make it look stupid/ridiculous
  2. I know this thread might sound silly, but i thinking of increasing the height of the ride has around my area there's quite a few speed bumps and currently at some i can hear it scrape the bottom. Would anyone know what height i should aim for? I dont want it too high or too low. 40mm front and back. ?? good/bad.

    I guess you are right. Any one have any idea on the brake pads?

    So any idea on what the part numbers are called? is the back a bigger one as well ? Because i think the rear brakes are squeaking.

    This is is the rear brakes This is the front Could you let me know if these are the smaller or bigger brakes. The rear ones look smaller then the front, is that normal? The disc and brakes has well as the wheels will be replaced but i'm just not sure what brake pads these are.

    I will upload some pictures up once the weather picks up. Never a good time to wash it. It could be me i still cant seem to do it lol. Its a 6 speed gear knob, well if you guys say it does then it does. I will try again later. About the brakes, i have no clue. Any suggestion on how to find out would be helpful. I'm thinking of getting the Green stuff brake pads. Thanks for the link, very helpful.

    I've just recently bought myself a 6speed n/a and there are a few questions i want to ask. 1. How to change the gear knob 2.What engine oil would be the best for supra 3.Brake disc and brake pads(which ones do people recommend for daily use not for track days as i know it can be very expensive.) Thank you:)
  17. Ok then. I was just wondering on the rev because of those pictures i've seen. I have done some searches for the rev-limits and etc. The main thing is that i dont now how to fit them and also dont know anyone. so i just wondering if anyone knows how to fit them and lives around the southeast area
  18. how to change kph to mph. I know there's probably a thread on this topic, so i sorry about making another one. I was wondering does anyone know in here how to change it and also remove the limiter. I have seen thread on how to change it but i'm no good with stuff like that so i wondering anyone local around south east so they might be able to help me. Also i noticed that in previous threads, looking at some pictures there rev counter goes up to 10. My mine only reaches 8, my supra is a N/A 1997 SR-Z 6 spped manual
  19. I guess i'm in the position to buy a supra, but i am waiting for that right one. You car looks nice, compared to the one i viewed and the wheels ain't even that bad:) unless they are new alloys
  20. I am taking my time......... kinda off, i wont jump in head first in buying a car. You guys start to sound like my girlfriend lol. It's a good thing right at least your all telling the truth. I've seen that car, plus i rang him because the advert says its manual but the picture suggested its a auto. I would prefer a manual. I've seen all of the above in the classified and they are all nice. I might get in contact with one with them. I guess you are right, but right now i aint seen one that i would go the distance yet. I would want a TT but my budget is my current car. If i could get the most out off it i might or i could use the money to do bits and bobs with a N/A. Plus my insurance aint going to be cheap.
  21. I aint been on lately to reply, so since i hav the chance i do it now. Nope i didnt buy it, i was 90% close to buying it until you guys told me other wise, the funny thing is that now that car i looked at is on pistonheads http://pistonheads.com/sales/1470879.htm Just reading the advert and he said that he did lots of work on it and when i spoke to him in person he didnt do anything to the car and its standard since he brought it. It looks better in pictures then in person. lol looking at it now makes me want to buy.lol Again after everyones advise i kinda understand at what price i should pay for depending on condition of the car. I did have alook at the car and yes its very nice, but i have to travel to Scotland it get. I don't mind a few hundred miles but not few thousand =/ I spoken to the owner after posting up here and i ask if he would re consider the price and all he did was knock off a few hundred pounds making it a nice £5000.00. I dont mind doing a few work on the car but not for £5000.00.
  22. Thats what i was thinking. Then that way i have a grand or two to fix any problems. thanks
  23. I guess. I have checked the classified here they are all very nice and reasonable priced, but i'm after a white one.
