Looks bloody AMAZING to me!!!! On par with the Top Secret one

Spoke to a few people about this on supraforums. Apparently it's normal and can't be turned up or down. Paul
-
I wouldn't mind knowing this aswell, as mine also idles quiet high, but i just thought this was normal? If not then turning it down would be great, as the neighbours must hate me Paul
-
The gold ones look very nice, but would be nicked from my area if i left the car for 10 mins in my street! lol I'll try toyota, cheers lads Paul

Anyone know where to buy the stock Supra badges from? I'm after giving mine a respray next year, but want to keep the Supra rear badge. Paul

Cheers mate, i would never of known otherwise! Ta, Paul

-
My tyres are set at 34psi front and back but i noticed inside the door that they should be 36psi. Is this true? I tried blowing them up to 36 but could not get more than 35.5 What do most people on here with UK 17s use? Paul

Slight Rattle Under Exhaust Heatshield Help
Paul Laing replied to Paul Laing's topic in mkiv Technical
Yeah, or it could be a normal cat going through the bin bag! lol No someone told me it could be the heatshield even though iv'e taken the cats out!!! Thought it must be screwed onto the underside of the car or something like the rear one. Paul -
Slight Rattle Under Exhaust Heatshield Help
Paul Laing replied to Paul Laing's topic in mkiv Technical
I thought it might be the Cat heatshield, but my Cats are both out. Could it still be that? It sounds like something is catching something, as when i shut my drivers door when the engines off i can hear the rattle. Matt, try shutting your door and see if yours still rattles. Paul -
Anyone do these kits for a 6 speed TT? reckon you might get a better 1/4 mile time with one on.

Slight Rattle Under Exhaust Heatshield Help

Where abouts is that mate, under the manifold heatshield? Thats where the sounds coming from. Any pics of one or advice on how to fix it? Where can these be bought from, and are they pricey? Paul -
Slight Rattle Under Exhaust Heatshield Help
Paul Laing replied to Paul Laing's topic in mkiv Technical
yeah thats it Matt, when you put your windows up you can't hear it, and it's not bad it's just a slight rattle when you come off the revs. -
so i wasn't that far off then with 98! lol
-
Facelift was in 96? or right, forget what i said then! So if the facelifts wern't all VVTI's, when were the VVTI engines dropped in? Paul
-
Anyone know what this is before i visit the garage? It's nothing bad and doesn't effect the car at all, it's just a slight rattle when you let off the accelerator pedal. Or when you rev it. The rattle isn't very bad, and is coming from under the exhaust heatshield, where the turbo's are. Anyone know what this is? When you shut the drivers door hard you can hear something loose. Probably the same thing. Anyone? Cheers, Paul
-
i know the facelift ones arn't UK! But i thought all facelift supras had the VVTI engines as the facelifts were 98 onwards..... The UK spec allways had the normal engine, i know that mate! Paul
-
All the late specs are VVTI, the ones with the new dials inside and the clear lights etc. Paul
-
it was a TT Jap 6 Speed VVTI Best he got i think was 13.9, my best was 13.4 so left him quite a bit. After about 15 runs i got an average of around 13.5 something. But the one i raced had a standard exhaust on.... Paul
-
I left one of these for dead halfway down the 1/4 mile at Elvington yesterday. And i have no boost controller, just a few bits and bobs. Paul
-
£550 sounds very expensive for a SMIC, you can pick up FMICs for less than £800, or cheaper if you look on Ebay. Paul
-
Cheers for the replys, but for now i think i'll just stick with sequential. I like the way you can be in 4th doing 30mph and when you put your foot down it just takes off, as if it was in 1st. Quality! Paul
