    Just been down to local toyota. Brake pipes T47327-14030 £46.78 T47326-14040 £39.55 T47328-14030 £17.68 Fuel lines T77251-14420 £27.70 T77255-14420 £50.07 +vat Not sure why one of the fuel lines is twice as much as other. Just hope there the right ones.

    Hi Just noticed an oil patch by rear left wheel. When I checked under car, it looks like all 5 pipes are past there best. What size copper pipe have people been fitting for brakes and fuel? What size are the male ends used? As thinking of having a go at making my own.

    Import size plate on home made mount.

    The wiring is easy. Only a couple of cables. I've got both mine on tps and switch, so both have to be activated for it to work. Used to just be on tps but got annoying spinning wheels when pulling out of a junction/roundabouts fast. There is a mail order refill service if you don't find anywhere local, could be an idea to get a spare bottle if you can find one cheap. If you got a garage you can rent big bottles and do the refilling yourself.

    Also have you found a place local for refills? As a bottle don't last that long at first, as your always using it.

    Hi mate. If your thinking of running 50+ shot I would use a controller. Otherwise your running the chance of damage to the engine or gear box. Are you running single point or direct port? Why you not fitting it yourself? I've done both my set ups on my car and wasn't to hard. Mine is a Wizard of nos kit but shouldn't be to different.

    Can't find a photo of the underside. If you want one will try and get one tomorrow night after work.

    I've cut vents in my bonnet and put some alloy sheet under, still room for air to get out. Not noticed anything bad. My engine is painted black though. I'm NA also. Think it just depends where you put the vents.

    Id say get a whifbits one. I had a cheap one on with my 6-2-1 manifold and I couldn't get it to seal right and it made the back box sit off center. It's loads better with the whifbits one on. Be ready for it to be extreamly loud.
  15. thomo8568
    I've still got the shift lock with mine. You just need to find a push down knob or one with a button on the top.
  16. thomo8568
    Yes. Just a few grub screws hold it in place.
  17. thomo8568
    It's just a cheap knob off eBay that is spring loaded that allows you to push down to move gear position. The hardest part is moving the manual and OD buttons and making it look nice. This is the knob I used. http://bit.ly/OlXjaK

    You don't really need a write up as it isn't to hard to do. I had a go with mine after seeing this. This is how it looks. Needs a better gator tho. Knob pushes down to move

    I've got my copy. It's a good read with some real nice photos. But there are some mistakes. The 3s-ge bit already covered, and the whifbits NA-t kit having the E-manage and map being included in the £2702.15 price. Think it should have said something about how good the auto is, as it reads as though the supra is only good as a manual.

    Unpainted but only if you remove the skirts.
  21. thomo8568
    If your going to remove the skirts then I would keep it black. I would remove them if mine as not a big fan of oem skirts, but I know a lot of people love them. Think it would look even better than it already does without them. Almost my perfect supra look.
  22. thomo8568
    You going to paint the front lip mate? I would as think it looks a bit odd black with you having the side skirts.
  23. thomo8568
    Cars looking good. Love the way it looks from the back. :thumbs:

    Aerials?

    I've got one of these. http://bit.ly/K2Zw8L I've stuck mine on rear 1/4 window, on the black part so it can't be seen.
  25. thomo8568
    Looks good. This is the next job on my list. How easy is it to remove the old knob?
