  1. Looks excellent mate, did you notice any increase in stopping power with all the new bits bolted up?
  2. My girlfriend loves the car and is insured on it but until I see her driving improve in her own car she won't be let anywhere neeaarrrrr the steering wheel she moans like fuck too because she really wants to drive it lol
  3. Sounds like it's worth roughly 11k to me mate.
  4. Could be up for it dependant on place and time
  5. Lovely car mate very nice choice! Was this the 400th one that Jm had sold? I saw something about it on FB.
  6. I had a great day! Was nice to meet you guys! I've got a shit ton of pictures so I'll post some up tomorrow!
  7. If it's available mate I'd like to change my bacon roll to a sausage and bacon roll if not bacon roll it is!
  8. for the front it's 9.5" and effective offset after spacer is +19mm. I'm running a 245 tyre.
  9. That looks nice mate, and thanks for the pics But it's not the vent i'm after it's the width, I've bought some wide front wheels in aggressive offsets and they're sticking out about 15-20mm but I've just found out it may be possible to roll and pull the fronts that kind of distance so it might be okay!!
  10. Okay thanks mate, unfortunately i don't have the kind of cash for the NUR wings I would love them though lol
  11. As per title really, does anyone know if the TRD front wings would fit on a stock body i.e. stock front bumper and also stock side (no side skirts) Supra? Really eager to find out. Thanks
  12. Okay mate, and what would you need in order to make up some bells for me? And some brackets? Not sure how i could get hold of original bells and mounts without actually buying them so that you could copy them tbh. And does anyone know about the fitment of the Wide front fenders please?
  13. Okay Chris thanks mate, what sort of money do you mean when you say pricey? As in I would be better off just buying a new kit or nowhere near that much? Also i have the 330mm disks i just need the bells making up.
  14. As per title have a couple of questions for you all! 1. I have a set of D2 front brakes 330mm, but they are for a different car and i'd like to fit them to my Supra. I've emailed a few companies but nobody has got back to me as of yet. Do you know where i could get hold of some bells and the mounting brackets for D2 brakes for a Supra please? 2. I may well need some wide arches for the front of my Supra as my front wheels seem to be sticking out a decent chunk I want to keep the stock lines as much as possible so i think the TRD wings (would probably have the gap filled in) look best? Do you know if these can be run on a stock body car? Or would i need side skirts and/or wide front bumper to fit? Thanks
  15. Yeah i've spoken to him about this mate and he's getting some made up as we speak and he's going to ship one over to me free of charge
  16. CHeers mate, i'll try and keep it that way! Thanks! the brake stopper stops the bulkhead from flexing under braking and therefor the brake master cylinder from moving when u press down the brake pedal, it's supposed to increase pedal feel and for me it certainly did Cheers, it was an absolute nightmare getting them off i reckon it took me a good solid 8-10 hours work from start to finish but it's worth it now Yeah i was really worried tbh mate! Even more so when i tried several methods to remove the stuff and none of them even touched it! Yeah sure, i got the brake stopper from here: http://www.provokedesigns.co.uk/ Best price i could find for a brake stopper and it looks nice and clean with it's black and white styling imo. Haha it does indeed! I still have lot's of places to clean it's not mint yet but it's on it's way at least cheers mate! Haha, it had to be a white one for me tbh, i wouldn't have had any other colour! Although since getting this i do also like the look of the blue ones i think that's a lovely colour. My wheels and Tyres arrived yesterday!! Off for a trial fitting at my Dads house soon without tyres to see if they will fit Front arches might need some heavy modification, they look bloody amazing though
  17. Cheers mate Really?! I hope it's something good! Cheers mate, white ones are the best huh
  18. fap fap fap indeed what a beauty! I bet those seats cost about 10k!!
  19. Unfortunately after i removed the spats i found out that they were stuck on with something called Tiger seal!! After searching the internet for hours on how to get it off i basically found out most people sarcastically recommend a chainsaw and prayer. I spoke to Jurgen and he said they've had it a few times before and with a lot of patience you can get it off with a heatgun and panel wipes! Well.........it does come off, but it took soooooo long i'm glad that's behind me now! Anyway, here are some pictures: Tiger seal before : Can also see the titanium exhaust fitted in that one^^ FU Tiger seal: After side skirt removal: Clean : Since then i cleaned up and sanded/polished the side lights as they were pretty dull and also this fitted lovely brake master cylinder that i got from Provokedesigns.co.uk, i saw a link from a guy on this forum and the brake stopper was much cheaper than the cusco ones so i went for it, and i was really pleased Fitted perfectly. I've also done a few more things but that's all i have time for now so i'll post about the other things later on Cheers
  20. Hey! Just thought i would start this to keep track of my progress with my new Supra I've owned it for roughly 6 weeks now i picked her up from Jurgen at JM-Imports on the 5th July and was a very happy man driving her home It's a fresh import 1998 Twin-Turbo Tiptronic in white (absolutely had to be white ) it was a grade 4 so it's in pretty good condition and the paint is still looking really fresh. I actually think it's had a blow over at some point in the original colour because the paint is truly excellent for a 16 year old car. Here's a few pics of the car when i went to pick her up: All nice and clean and ready for a few tweaks Before i had even been to collect the car i had bought a few parts, i knew i wanted to remove the rear spats and the side skirts and go back to stock body so i bought the side pods and side trims all body colour coded white and also bought an Amuse R1000 Titanium exhaust! Which sounds absolutely bloody lovely I'm a bit of a clean freak with cars so i set to work straight away on cleaning up my already clean car Started under the bonnet: Before: After: Before: During: I actually forgot to get one after but i may get one soon to compare, but you get the idea Cleaned up the headlights:
  21. Wow, absolutely beautiful car mate! Nice work
  22. 98' fresh import TT VVTI facelift tiptronic in white from Solihull
