  1. Okey dokey,amazed a full stop upsetting so many people,didn't see it as bad grammar,didn't think it looked like morse code. Will stop posting in that manner in future. Thanks for letting me know.
  2. Just back from the day at Silverstone.......some really lovely cars, especially a royal blue Dodge Viper......really mean looking car...some lovely classic racers, E-types, Porsches, ferraris, Morgans, Healeys etc........but what an expensive day............£170 entry, most of the childrens rides £5 a go.....we had Fried chicken and a slushy for lunch....£68......£80 in the Pajero for diesel.....cold drinks and doughnuts £19..........3 programmes £24.........plus some more £'s for souvenier flags, keyrings and bits and bobs.......... 3 adults..5 children with only 1 not having to pay ( under 5 )......weather super sunny......but where do these people think you get the money from....on the up side saw some great racing......saving up for another day........lol
  3. Hi Paul.......yes likewise................think I may have to go for the rebuild and uprate of my own box, not certain but highly likely....i have a couple of leads to pursue......couldn't go manual...its a clutch thing as you know....lol....just kidding ...stay safe.
  4. Hi, Seems the autobox from Titan Motorsport will not suit the tiptronic electronics set up......does anyone have any experience of getting the tiptronic box rebuilt and uprated....On advice from Ryan I would need the box rated around 700-800 bhp ...... so 750 bhp would be ideal...any help, direction, advice would be great, thanks in advance for any help you can give. '99 car.
  5. ...Thanks Dan.......I want to do mine.......
  6. Welcome to you...good luck with build......good luck with clutches...lol..................enjoy the owners club.
  7. .........Stevie....was it easy to get trim out.........anything easy to beak etc...??
  8. Hope you didnt have to pay for any barriers..................glad you enjoyed the trip..look forward to seeing pics and times.
  9. According to titan it will handle 800 bhp and has been tested to over 900 bhp, obviously i needed to change torque conv also, the box is rated as stage 2 by titan and supposed to change gear much quicker, smoother and slicker than orig box...the pair on their own comes to around £3000 by the time they are over from the states.......they say they are planning a stage 3 for the future,reading the Titan Motorsport website may make you consider hanging on for the stage 3........ hope that helps.
  10. If you click onto "forum"..follow mawbys lists to the supra guide...you will find everything you will ever need to know about specs model differences..its kinda like the bible...you will find it under FAQS and GUIDES...
  11. ...With vat £143..had a seized part and they used some oxy/acet to free it up apparently.....looked at your car.....really nice looking car...I like it.
  12. Had mine done two weeks ago and it was completely different.......much much better, felt like it sat down on the road and didnt change direction on its own...lol
  13. ......You been on a rebuilding project Blackie or have you been breaking it and saving up for repairs...........

  16. Hi ....Well it looks a lot of car for £2.5 k.........If you are seriously thinking of buying car why not put a deposit down on the understandingthat you will have an engineers report done, if report shows something untoward or something not disclosed ....take money and run...good luck.

  22. Perhaps some accessories, specialist or otherwise, blingy bits, could be part of the package so every new business has a more interesting site from the word go with ref to "bits for sale ".....this would be a good tie to your stockroom with some type of commission deducted by yourselves for mail order items sent out........this time next year we'll all be millionaires........
  23. .....Is it an easy task......telling a forged rim from a cast rim....however easy it might be ..this is a serious question....lol
