That's good timing, I'm literally removing mine today. Have run stock boost for 99% of their life, my cars done about 70k.

I just used a fresh bottle of Toyota stuff and a bottle of stop slip, recommended by David P.

Price? -
Who's doing this for you Jake? Not sure which number I can only see two pics but I like all white with the little red bit on the knob
-
I hope you're right mate
-
Well it's too late now lol And i'm not sure either way to be honest. You and Rob W both seem to think a standard UK spec would be best so that will do for me.
-
Okay Chris well I've trusted you and gone with the UK spec decat! let's hope you're right! thank you.
-
Hey Chris, any specific VVTI stuff is indeed now gone. I thought the angle of the flange and downpipe were different to miss something that was different on the vvti engines though? (something not turbo or manifold related) or is this not the case?
-
You are correct mate, got the cast manifold setup with the shorter downpipe. I was under the impression that all the turbos and manifold etc were the same for vvti and non but eh downpipe was different to clear the gearbox or something like that? So wouldn't that still be the case when changing turbo? Yes Chris, Berg has it fitted on his car, he has a non-vvti though and used a UK spec downpipe and it fit perfectly.
-
What do you mean mate? I will be doing this essentially. The PHR turbo kit come with a short downpipe, that bolts straight up to a UK spec downpipe/1st decat. And then it's all just standard from there. I just want to make sure the UK spec decat will align properly in my vvti car.
-
Actually, thinking about it, if Tim makes these decays fresh would it best for me to get a vvti decat made up just with a UK spec flange on?
-
I may be wrong on this but i'm pretty sure SZ-R 6 speeds are well over 10k freshly imported now.
-
clitoris :O
-
This is true It does cause a reasonably large problem and potential cost though. As i'd have to fit the turbo kit and then get the car towed the 1 hour or more to Tim as it'd be undriveable at that point to make the downpipe.
-
Yeah possibly not mate, but there won't be any restrictions in this one? Will just be one extra connection like you said, the PHR downpipe looks pretty decent tbf.
-
Thanks mate, i was just considering buying one of the TB developments UK Spec 1st decats, these have a flexi section already in them. This would be as good right?
-
Ahh, play I didn't realise it was the vvti that made the difference not the pre/post facelift. Thanks chaps. So basically I've bought the PHR turbo kit, and it come with a short downpipe that bolts up to a UK/US spec first decat (because of the different flange). So I just wanted to make sure that if u buy a UK spec decat to swap for my current facelift decat, I wouldn't have any clearance issues if you know what I mean.
-
Hi guys, Just a quick question about the 1st decat really. I know facelift and pre are different but what exactly was changed on the facelift model to require a different downpipe shape? The reason for the question is I've bought an American turbo kit. And then turbo kit is obviously made for the US spec Supra, so I need to use a UK spec decat, but I have a facelift Supra. And I'd just like to know before I splash out on a new one, if, in theory, in will fit. Thank you.
-
Thanks guys, I contacted Paul and he only had 2.5" and I need 3". How much is the TB one Ash?
-
Hi! As the title really, after a UK spec first decat, let me know what you have. Thanks.

I would potentially be in if there were one.
-
Hi guys I still have these, they are for a face-lift car so they have the rear light cut out. £40 takes them away if you collect to save me hassle, bargain. - - - Updated - - - And I do have pics, Pm me and I'll WhatsApp anyone that wants some.
-
I'm in the same boat as you mate. Trying to decide between the CW and the BC racing. Everyone that has the BC seems to love and the k they are very good for the road,obviouslh the CW stuff is highly rated too. I'll be following this
-
Definitely not a car to consider an investment imo, look at the drivers door sill with the door open. It's heavily rusted, i dread to think what it's like underneath.
