  1. Just doesn't look like this is the right place that's all... My facts were right though minus you jumping to his defence completely though
  2. Hmmm there are still doubters: I happen to agree with his statement
  3. 1. You've done 50 posts and jump to his defence 2. That picture does not show where it is, it's a yard with some imports in. 3. Where's the unit with the other 5 cars in it? 4. That overhead view on google maps doesn't show any cars in a yard. So much for having loads of cars? Don't mean this aggressively or harshly as that isn't me, but this is what the facts look like :-/
  4. Hmmm not sure I believe this....
  5. Cheers guys, Does it matter what end the bung is on?
  6. Weird cus it didn't fit the guys j spec engine :-/ What are the differences between this and uk spec?
  7. So I'm looking at getting this 1st de cat but were not sure if it's for a uk spec or not? Can anyone tell me the differences between uk and spec? Cheers, this doesn't fit a j spec:
  8. Money for me, otherwise I'd be all over the place for meets
  9. Yea I know lol but its my calling! Iv Spent my budget on some nice bits though. You wait till I get some pictures up
  10. cheers bud It's looking sexy even bare. I actually cannot wait to get started. Just waiting on a few bits now then I'll be all over this!!!
  11. 14/02/13 happy valentines day supra RobD has been busy this week putting bits on the car! Fuel lines in. diff on, drive shafts on: Exhaust on (fully decatted) And the engine bay looking pretty sexy if I do say so myself Thinking much more carbon in the future So yea little bit here little bit there and things are moving along nicely going to pick up another drivers shock and spring as mine was leaking and also sort the boot battery conversion. Other things to sort are the coil pack clips which are dead and to sort some fixings for the FMIC. Other than that should be finished sooner rather than later which is good because tax runs out on the celica at the end of next month and the supra needs some new rear tyres!
  12. Took delivery of johnny Gs shell today and wanted to start this thread to share my experience with you guys and also to keep a record of what's going on with the car Ok so the story begins with a phone call to robD on the forum who I met a while back when I had my NA. Who I was chatting to one night on the phone, he mentioned of a amazing RSP coloured shell for sale on the forum and we talked about how we could get it running. Originally we thought sticking a cheap NA auto in it to get it road worthy as I was (and still am) skint! But as is the way it never went that way. I eneded up getting a loan out (bigger than I planned) to get all the bits ready for a TT auto beast A began sourcing bits I'd need as I'd thought I'd found a cheap TT engine but got mugged off by some garage in Leeds who I stick by to this day are time wasting @&!?'s. Anyway robD found a dirty cheap uk spec and we had a a road trip and I half getting it back. For a car that's done over 200k it's lovely.... Well was.... It's now gutted but due to good reason. It's rusted underneath badly. Anyway most of my bits are now covered, also got some free wheels and tyres thanks to alter rob on the forum, with his lovely red aero top! Thanks again mate The things iv spent money on so far are: Johnny's shell Uk bits (lights,wheels,interior,engine,gearbox, exhaust etc Labour Transport Front mount intercooler kit FCD Boost controller And still looking for first de cat So as you can see gearing up for bpu! Ok so yesterday I went to SRD to drop the wheels off to keep the car rolling as there was a mix up of it not being kept a rolling shell. Surprisingly it was a ok drive and went over the dartford bridge: So that was cool Lees a good bloke and said he'd fit the wheels so it's ready to go car looked like this: So yea very very bare! But no worries it'll look good in the end, always stay positive and that So wheels dropped off and returned home. Got up today and doug arrived with my car on the trailer and god it looked sexy was a bit of a pain to get up the hill but I was steering sitting on the bare floor so no pushing for me hehe! And here's how the car sits now. As soon as bits start coming together and the fun really begins I'll have more photos Doesn't have a spoiler as johnny said he will send it to me. Hopefully it'll be here ASAP 20/10/12 Ok so today we got round to doing some bits on the doner car: Here's the uk spec in pieces, seems a shame till you see the state of the underneath: That front bar under the rad has rusted to nothing and cut out by someone.... Safe or what... Here's the engine in pieces, no pipes on it ready for removal! My 17" alloys going on the beast...need new rear tyres tho Uk spec headlights! Yay! Anyway just a small update on how it's going. Won't be another week and a half till more gets done, unless I get down there tomorrow. But once we get cracking it should be up and running ASAP! Update 18/12/12 Ok quick up date, it's ridiculously late! But here's some pictures of the progress so far: Headlights in Engine in Interior coming along, all belts and speakers in, minus passenger door which needs doing! Interior trim to go on... Lol Also I'm missing the two pieces that go around the top of the door and the passenger handle. If anyone has these and doesn't want them I'll have them. Thanks! The prop and shifter to go on! Anyway little update but good to see even the smallest progress
  13. I want a mocha with whipped cream and flake and 5kg of sugar and a big cookie.... sorry what I actually meant was can I have a heart attack lol
  14. Sorry lbm! Hold my hands up I commented without knowing the full story. I'll be more careful from now on didn't help I was in a bad mood from my neighbours! (separate story lol) anyway apologies!
  15. Although I don't know all the details so can't really comment lol
  16. Seriously though if someone said that you'd run away with your tail between your legs that's bang out of order... Doesn't excuse what was said but I would be pissed too. I wouldn't blame jm imports however. It's whoever sold thems responsibility.
  17. Did someone actually post you have your tail between your legs??

  20. Lol fair point! I can't really afford a supra but that's what loans are for
  21. Iv messaged the guy on eBay. I think it is 89 quid really for NA de cat. No need to pay twice that for a de cat!
