  1. Seems a good price, any piccies?

     

    My friend only sent me three pictires. I will upload them later :)

    He really has looked after it, rarely drove it especially after when the baby arrived. I think he is sad to see it go, he could of sold it last December but the buyer was kinda rude and didn't sell it to him. I think he wants it to go to a good home.

     

    In for pictures.

     

    Also for people not used to Aristo gibberish :-

    Rear lock out bar - Has rear wheel steering

    VSC canceller - Vehicle Stability Control Removes rear steering inputs

    Walker and MCBob - Guys on Club Aristo who make bits :)

     

    Does it have sat nav or not? And do people STILL use turbo timers?

     

    If i remembered correctly it does have SatNav but its for Japan. I remember him telling me that people mod them to get UK maps on them but he didn't feel brave enough to do it.

  2. To fit pre facelift bud.

    I think it was a little slow to retract so Josh42 said, i never fitted it as i only needed the drivers one and he was selling them as a pair.

     

    Do you know if the prefacelift will fit the facelift car?

  3. SELLING BEHALF OF FRIEND

    Mcbobs vsc cancellation kit fitted (see BAD)

     

    THE BAD.

     

    The solenoid in the n/s passenger door has given up the ghost and has to be locked manually and the drivers door is temperamental.

     

    Turbo timer is temperamental

     

    Slight smoke on start,smells but having no cat just emphasises this

     

    With the lockout bar installed it has thrown up the lights on the dash ARS VSC TRC there is a thread to create a loom to plug into the ARS ECU which will clear these as mcbobs kit didn't work (he will vouch for this...hopefully)

     

    THE UGLY.

     

    Few age related marks

     

    Stone chips on bonnet

     

    Mark on rear bumper

     

    Slight ding on n/s rear door

     

    Overall the car is superb and runs like a dream,like I said previous, ive owned the car for 5 years but have only done 10k miles!! It pulls hard and has been looked after extremely well,bodywork is in real good shape for age of car, a must see!!

     

    This is a real reluctant sale but I don't have a choicewould love for someone to take it off my hands and put the finishing touches on it and above all ENJOY IT!!breaking it all down would just be criminal and don't want to go down that route.if I get my asking price (there abouts) the buyer will also receive a genuine tte front lip (wrapped in black vinyl) genuine wind deflectors (painted black) and a genuine sport grill(is currently champagne colour) as well as all of that I will throw in all of the OEM parts if you wanted to break it all down yourself and earn a few quid

     

    Gutted is an under statement!

     

    Not sure on the market at the moment but would be looking for £4600 OVNO

     

    Thanks for reading and if you have any questions or to arrange a viewing etc give me a call on 07880585333

     

    Cheers....Scott

  4. Great clutch this, had it in my old car. The lightened flywheel really frees up the revs too, car feels much more responsive at low rpm. These are fully rebuildable too aren't they?

     

    /QUOTE]

     

    Thanks for the positive comments :) yeah does build the rpm quicker.

    Not really sure about the rebuild part. But the way i drive my Supra, the clutch should be almost like brand new :D

  5. RPS Streetmax Clutch with lighten CynRG flywheel

    Price £300.00 collected

     

    Postage £20.00

     

    This run and works perfectly. I have used this for a about 1000k miles or less. Most of the miles are done on the dyno or driving from and to the mappers. Had this for a year, I am only selling because I am upgrading the clutch because this won't hold the power I am going for.

     

    This clutch is currently on the Supra its running 590ft/lbs and 710bhp. I am selling this clutch with the lighten flywheel but you can use the stock flywheel if you want. Bolts straight on.

     

    This is a great clutch if you are planning to go single.

     

    Information of the clutch and flywheel can be found here:

    http://www.suprastore.com/rpsclutches1.html

     

    I won't be removing this until around mid May, any questions please ask. I be asking for £50 deposit

  6. I'm going for the HKS LA twin here and aiming for 800rwhp. If you look at the site below or the link James posted it can take up to 720nm of torque happily and under condition (read heavy load from time to time) up to 830nm torque so it should happily shift with your power goals mate.

     

    Lee recommends this one.

     

    http://www.hks-power.co.jp/en/product/power_train/la_clutch_twin/index.html

     

    How much did that cost you?

     

    A 800 hp Supra on a bit of ethanol will be 800++ nm of torque.

     

    No ethanol on my build. Maybe on Gregs :D

  7. Not sure I would be looking to spend a grand for the replacement of a working clutch when the goal is only another 90bhp, unless you are planning on drag racing it

     

    No plans in drag racing it. Just a nice weekend drive :cool:

     

    If the car hits over 800bhp then its fine. But goal would be hopefully around 800bhp
