  1. Used WD40 and a flexible ratchet on mine. Just jacked up the car on the street. The flexible ratchet is a most, and you have to lie with your legs pointing towards the driver side wheel to be able to get the best leverage on all bolts.
  2. Am experiencing the same situation too. Have wired in the eBay hks fcd, but I also have a walbro fuel pump. At boost of around 1 bar (last time was 0.92) it loses power too like a fuel cut, and it wont boost further. Am sure my wiring is spot on, it is also set to 9. Can the eBay fcd be all bad? I have a HKS EVC 5 boost controller, and all other mods except fmic.
  3. Ed, can you help me find my fuel flap lever? The boot lever is obscuring my view

    Top Tip!

    Sun News headlines: Mr. Bean lookalike runs himself over with his own car.
  5. Something fishy here. And who exactly are you, and why the interest in that particular thread?

    Yeah that too. I have an FTO on AP racing brakes and that was brilliant on the Nurburgring twisties as good as a Porsche.
  7. Thanks Chris. Your "arrow" helped in aligning my "ring".
  8. Lol, happened to me. Had some bit of money in a stash and I woke up one day and saw only 2k left. Actually thought the bank had robbed me as I just couldn't lay a finger on many tangible things I had spent it on. Must have been those thieving gremlins.
  9. True that. If you are in dire need of 30k, life and death matter for your business, then sell or break it. It is an asset in its current state, and you don't sell assets just so you can store the little notes under your pillow. When you really must, then do. Otherwise, continue enjoying.
  10. Jamesy, wasn't talking to you. Was talking to the pinhead that started calling me names for saying it is sad all the best cars here are now being broken or sold.
  11. Well, teenagers like yourself shouldn't own cars they can't afford to maintain. And should go and finish University.
  12. Think I came into this club at a wrong time. Now thinking of moving to Wessex Car club. At least, their members can afford their cars.
  13. There is no lip on the hard pipe. Is there a way of creating one?
  14. That is why people are poor. Instead of giving £20,000 to the rich bankers as deposit for a debt you will be paying forever, spend the next 3 weeks planning a business which can be generating you an additional £3000 monthly, run it profitably for a year, and sell it to your competition for 12x - 24x or more its revenue value, then you have money to pay outright half the cost of a new house and still keep the supe.
  15. I just went bpu, and have been trying to tune my hks evc. But whenever I am on around 0.9 or 1 bar of boost, the hard pipe leading from the throttle body to the SMIC always pops off, regardless of what I use to secure it (jubilee clips et al). Has happened twice now. Any help as to why it does that and a possible solution?
  16. Fellas, almost finished with my bpu setup. Just bought a new HKS EVC 5 and for the life of me, I cant work out how to fit it. I have seen the manual and done several searches, but I need a simple guide to fitting it on a supra, just like the one for the HKS FCD, which I fitted in minutes, thanks to drift bear. So help, please
  17. I just went full bpu yesterday and this morning on startup, I got lots of white smoke which never happened pre bpu.
  18. Bought and put 2 litres of Castrol ATF III and the gearbox is now working, albeit sluggishly. And the dipstick still shows almost no oil in it. There is no leakage. WOnder how much oil it will take to reflect properly on the stick. Maybe 4L more?
  19. I just checked the ATF level and it is nigh on empty. Must be the problem. I have Castrol ATF fluid, I don't know if that will work? Cos I don't think the local Halfrauds have the Toyota stock one. And I don't know what the last owner might have put in it.
  20. Nope. Fully loaded on the huge tow truck.
  21. I will be brief fellas. My alternator on my TT died on a road trip, and killed me battery. After the AA brought it home, I bought another alternator. While waiting for it to arrive, I started decatting my car. So I have removed the 1st and 2nd cats, and fitted in 3" decats, changed the engine oil fully with Castrol 5w 40 and changed the alternator with the one bought off here. Started the car, it starts perfectly, but when I engage any of the gears, nothing happens. No reverse, 1st gear, 2nd gear,nothing. Havent fitted in the HKS FCD yet (i will in a couple of hrs) and am still waiting for my colder plugs to arrive today. But the car should move at least. Have a boost gauge. Please what is wrong?
  22. No text speak. Hurts my head trying to read what you wrote.
  23. They should lose all your business, both now and in future, for everything Toyota related. And write a complaint to them and to their head office about there unethical practices.
