  1. Cheers guys. Got a couple to think of tonight so im going to sleep on it and decide tomorrow!
  2. Is this anyone's on here? http://www.pistonheads.com/classifieds/used-cars/toyota/supra/toyota-supra-single-turbo-built-auto/2677156?isexperiment=true
  3. I did think this originally myself, but everyone else on here seems to think different, and im not one to really know right now after Ive been off the scene for a bit! Either way ill consider going for it a lot more if nothing else comes up by the weekend! Would prefer a nice 6 speed with mods like this but i think i could be looking at much more ££££!
  4. Is it as smooth a change as the dsg tho or do you really feel it? I did hear they are good to about 600bhp
  5. Thanks dnk, your name did ring a bell from when i looked at the add but then i thought nothing of it after! If anyone else knows of any other like this, with nice mods, be it auto or tt6 please let me know. Budget is 12k at maximum but only for the perfect one.
  6. Hmmmm, thanks for the input guys. Just come back into looking to buy one so was unsure on if it was worth what it was up for! Never driven an auto supe tho so a bit of insight on that too would be great! The only auto i have driven was a 170bhp Leon tdi :\. Are they as good as tt6 you think? - - - Updated - - - Thanks
  7. Been looking at this today. Just wondering if its worth the money its up for as it is auto. What do you guys think? Any reason why i shouldn't go and have a look/buy the car? Anyone in the West Midlands that could pop down and take a look for me to save me a 3 hour trip if its not worth what it is?

  8. My dad sold his black 6 speed supra back in the day in the southeast reg IUI 9102. I know its a long shot but we were just wondering if its made its way into the club at all! Did a hpi and its still about. Imported in 1998 Would be good to see if anything was done to it when he sold it for a bargain price of 5k!
  9. Nice mitch awesome job youve done their!
  10. I just bought some new leads and will fit them tomorrow or wednesday. Going for the trial and error technique lol. If it still happens when i have fitted them then ill be sure to get a video up when its doing it on idle. Also to add its now getting worse. It now does it also when its cold and also when in high gear now as-well (so basically all the time)
  11. Ah that does look lovely mate! Still not figured out what it is, im thinking about changing the coil pack and leads first off and work my way through. Might even be the injectors. It ran like a dream earlier, we drove it for 45 mins and even when warm it was perfectly fine. Then went out later in the day again a few hours later in it and it started playing up again. Cant be the HG. Coolant is fine still and if it was it wouldn't have been fine the first time round. Maybe some damp is getting in there or something idk. Garage couldn't fit us in for a block test till Monday, when were both back at work, and i refused to take it to quick fit!
  12. Sorry i missed your replay mate, it was brand new from rover. I hope your right and it is mate
  13. Nope not done a compression test but will take it to the garage tomorrow, and i wouldn't know what the garage did that done it as that was with the previous owner. I'm not very mechanically minded and only know the basics so i guess this would be something i cant really look at myself if it involes the head gasket
  14. HAHA! Well i can assure you mate its petrol
  15. Also makes this strange clicking noise if you can hear this. Could this be anything electrical that could cause the problem?
  16. It literally has no problems at all until its warmed up so been running 5 - 10 mins which makes me think it cant be the head because it would do it even when its cold, or am i wrong? I'm no mechanic Only does it in low gears when warmed up, When you hit 4th and 5th it seems to be fine when warm. And sorry i meant coil packs not coil pack, so both have been replaced. Also to add it blips slightly when idling.
  17. Bollocks lol, the just been done like 8k miles ago. Bad times . Guess ill just have to buy her a new car. Cant be doing a head gasket every 8k miles!
  18. Yea i know they do tend to go but i don't think that would cause misfiring would it? Ok ill take it/bump it down the road to the garage tomorrow. Cheers ben
  19. Hi guys, not a supe but if anyone could shed some light on where i start i would be greatfull. Basically a few days ago my girlfriends 1.4 mg zr started misfiring. This only happens in low gears and ONLY when the car is warm. I replaced the spark plugs today and the coil pack was replaced not so long ago before this problem came into existence. Where else do i start looking/replacing parts. I'm hoping someone on here has had one and knows where to start :s
  20. Done, and looks fantastic mate
  21. Crazy stuff, the paint looks sooooo good!
  22. Lol i guess this is a breaking thread now then....
