  1. What Nuttynutz said basically. Depends how concerned you are about handling. 19s definately look better and alot of people on here have them with no problems. But from what ive gathered 17s provide optimal performance from the car. Personally I went with 18s as a compromise between looks and handling as apparantly it doesnt affct the handling too much while filling out the huge supra arches a bit better than the 17s.
  2. I think he is an amazing driver and that is also an amazingly generous donation
  3. i dont think the paint looks that bad, but the dodykit really spoils it. undecided on the reverse lambo doors tho
  4. I think they are the old volk challenges. I think someone on this board either has them and was asking Dusty if they were still available as needed a replacement or a whole new set, cant remember which or who it was though
  5. same here, back to work tomorrow, the short break was good while it lasted...but at least im off on holiday in Feb so something to look forward too
  6. erm no secret as Envy sell them. IIRC they were about 350 for the pair, whereas normal ones are £130 for the pair. quite a big difference i know but i justified it this way. 2 pairs of lights needed, so thats 260 alone. so then the remaining 90 quid goes towards labour, which sounds alot but i also have the satisfaction of having something that looks so much better. You can see them on Kevins car if u want to see what they look like
  7. facelift definately better and if you can spare the extra cash facelifts with clear indicators even better IMHO (thats why i got mine like that from Envy)
  8. China Man I agree with you I didnt take your post as trying to be rascist, just stating how it is. I know as asian countries are like that too and its not just to do with colour of your skin, its more whether you are local or not. I recently went to Pakistan, and although by appearance i fit in when i spoke the locals could tell my accent was different and i was not a local, so they tried to rip me off. Its not a rascist thing its just that british currency carries a lot of weight. So if you look at it from their point of view, they think (wrongly) a few extra pounds here or there wont make much difference to us, whereas it will be a big difference in their income anyway keeping this thread on track, keep the ideas coming and i need some lingo to haggle with the shopkeepers
  9. great info guys keep it coming China man ur right, im not chinese, but not exactly "ghost man" either (i am ethnically pakistani) But any guidelines on what the prices should be compared to what i am likely to be told? also im gonna be there over chinese new year which should be cool
  10. Im going to hong kong next month and i expect some electronic gizmos will be competitively priced there so need some ideas on what to lookm out for. Already on my list is an iPod photo and digital camera (thinking sony cybershot t3 unless anyone can recommend something better) possibly a mobile if it will work here in the uk Any other ideas? also anyone been to HK and can recommend best places to go as im only gonna be there for 3 nights
  11. if you type your name in with the word supra more likely to come up with link to this forum i had loads of other stuff come up with just my name
  12. LOL actually i was thinking black mesh would look good on mine too
  13. i see the pink, i see the red...but purple? looks really nice whatever the colour is though Dude i think ur right black mesh and tints with facelift headlights will contrast well with the car's colour. I quite like it spoilerless too suprisingly. not sure about graphics though, suppose its something you might want to try and photoshop first to get an idea of how it will look. Dont agree with supradibbs about the chrome, as dont think it will suit it, but i know what he means about the ghost graphics (think it was on a red US RX7 that i saw the ghost flames) and they look really nice, but i think they are done during the paint process rather than after, not sure though. If they can be done after would be perfect for the car's colour IMHO
  14. c west front is nice i was gonna get it and my car was gonna look like my avatar, but couldnt get hold of it when i wanted so went with do luck front instead Dude thought that was my car for a second, but then noticed the front bumper and wheels Elliot my car will have trd cut outs without overfenders, veilside skirts and do luck front, so u might want to see it when its done to get a better idea
  15. Looks sweet, better with the writing IMHO
  16. Sounds good mate, hope it all works out for you
  17. query on behalf of a mate, says his engine management light comes on when he boots the car at around 4k rpm and has come up as code 42 on diagnostic any suggested fixes for this prob, is it serious? he says its ok after turning the car off and on

    mate if he cant there must be a sound reason, cos i can say from first hand experience he did all he could to help me out when sending my alloys over as cheap as possible
  19. u can get purge kits which shoot out the gas in the lines and look very cool at the same time
  20. ive got a set of these in silver But they are down in Newhaven at Dude's where my car is. Been assured by Dusty they will fit over the uk brakes i have but dont know about the difference with APs
