Won't be able to get pictures until this weekend as I'm away with work.

I have a stock side mount intercooler off my 48k miles car. All pipe work as well minus the one that goes over the airbox and through the wing as I've retained these. All very good condition

Is the rear still for sale?

I won't be able to make this one mate. Possible next and the Supra might be back on the road by then

Hi guys, Relatively new to posting on the forum so bear with me on this. I've spoke with the guys at TCB Performance LTD having seen recently they're now one of very few people able to get Project Mu brake components at very competitive prices. Discussed that there would be a great deal of interest from the supra community in these being the other options mainly being EPC that aren't in my opinion all that great. After speaking he's agreed with enough interest he can bulk order these and save a decent amount on price, currently looking for minimum 10 to 15 preorders. As it's not me personally ordering these you can get in contact with Paul at TCB via; tcbparts.co.uk 01579 383879 https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=1194271067311975&id=183797998359292 I've copied all the relevant information from the group buy currently on Facebook along with performance figures of the pads below. Here at TCB we're always looking to bring new products to market for our customers, for the ST205 and Supra JZA80 UK Spec Brakes there is currently a massive gap in the market for performance pads which we're hoping that with YOUR help we can bring Project Mu HC800 pads to the UK market!, In order to get these to the UK Market I would need Pre Orders for between 10 - 15 Sets as I'm required to make a large initial order, to all of these customers I can offer a special offer discount which will be discounted even further if we reach 15 sets, The Retail prices on the front would be £139 + VAT and the rears would be £91.99 + VAT, however for the people who pre order these pads the prices would be £117.46 + VAT front and £77.73 + VAT for the rears, Fantastic pads at a fantastic price! Let Me know below or in a message if you'd be interested in them and I'll add your name to my list. Now why should I buy Project Mu pads? see below for information on the pad and competition pads, on one end you have the lower end EBC products which are a price point which makes them a very attractive option, but on a fast road or track vehicle they just really can't stand up to the job, they also aren't very disc friendly, create a huge amount of dust and are noisy, they also still fade when the going gets tough, there are much better options on the market such as Carbotech but again these can be noisy and dust, then there are Porterfield pads which we can supply and are fantastic pads, low dust, disc friendly and not too noisy a fantastic pad, the only downside to them is price and high temperature ranges really However there is a solution we're looking to become the only stockists in the UK for Project Mu HC800 pads front and Rear for the ST205 and Supra JZA80 UK Spec Brakes, these pads are Genuine Japanese Racing Pad's they work straight out of the box and right the way up until 800 degrees one of the largest operating temperatures around the intial bite will not be the same when they are cold but brake efficiency is not completely lost when cold, but once you've done a couple of stops they're fully up to temp and ready to put in some serious braking force with an average friction coefficient of 0.38 - 0.62 across their temperature range, Fade Resistance When brake pads operate at high temperatures, high pressure gases can be created in the pad and can cause a 'gas layer' between the pad and rotor. This can make the driver feel like the brakes have lost performance as the brake pedal feels the same, but the car won't slow down as normal. This phenomenon is known as 'fade'. A slot is manufactured in all Project-Mu pads to offer the gases an escape route. Noise Suppression Brake pads manufactured without a chamfer on the leading edge of the friction material, are more likely to produce unpleasant noise. This noise known as brake squeal is actually a high frequency vibration created by the friction between pad and rotor. The vibration can manifest in calliper, rotor or suspension vibration. This 'problem' is reduced or eliminated by the chamfer on the pad material. Heat Treatment Project-Mu brake pads are subjected to heat treatment as part of the manufacturing process. This process 'burns out' unwanted materials in advance, reducing the gases that can cause fade. As a result, Project-Mu brake pads only need light 'bedding in' to match the pad to your rotor surface. HC800 has more bite than both NS and B-Spec and has excellent fade resistance. Capable of operating at temperatures up to 800°c, this pad will handle almost all serious braking conditions. HC800 is a genuine ‘cross over’ pad suitable for both road and race. HC800 is extremely capable in competition environments so use this pad if you are involved in serious track day, rally etc. Along with temperature capabilities, HC800 is renowned as a ‘drivers pad’ with unmatched driver feel and control. Fade Resistance When brake pads operate at high temperatures, high pressure gases can be created in the pad and can cause a 'gas layer' between the pad and rotor. This can make the driver feel like the brakes have lost performance as the brake pedal feels the same, but the car won't slow down as normal. This phenomenon is known as 'fade'.

This process 'burns out' unwanted materials in advance, reducing the gases that can cause fade. As a result, Project-Mu brake pads only need light 'bedding in' to match the pad to your rotor surface. Brake Pad Structural Stability Brake pads are subjected to huge pressure from calliper pistons in unequal proportions across the pad. Brake pads must remain flat to offer optimal performance so Project-Mu use only the highest grade quality steel at the correct thickness to ensure this stability. Project-Mu pads are up to 20% stronger than some competitors. We Can Supply all of the previously mentioned products be it EBC, Carbotech or Porterfield so if you'd like one of these options then let me know and I can quote for you, but I'm keen to get Project Mu to the UK market and I'll be running them on my own ST205 and currently run them in my Track EP3 as well Thank you for your time and I hope that you're interested in this venture Paul Pridham Company Director

Just had the dreaded insurance hunt my self. Competition car insurance wouldnt insure me on the basis you need to be 25, footman james wouldnt insure the car as they said it had to be 20 years old and lynbrook were unable to insure me either. got a superb quote from sky insurance, from a guy Luke who was superb. £700 fully comp, protected no claims, excess half of what my previous insurer was, legal cover and windscreen cover 23 years old, 5 years no claims, 1 none fault claim. 98 RZ 6 speed

Like i said to you already pal I'm away with work for the first one but will be watching this closely for more Aberdeen meets
-
Looked to get one my self. Spoke the lee and they were only American market. Different style of shape of rear silencer to the 4 inch and not the straight pipe. Iirc they're 3.7 something inch as well

Hey mate if you want a hand with anything I'm back on the 18th just drop me a text [emoji106]
-
Welcome mate, think aberdeen area is become the supra hot spot of the UK! (I stay in Methlick myself) Get some pics up when you pick her up [emoji106]
-
Don't be daft was a busy day between trying to see everything at the show and cleaning the cars, there will be plenty more events. Thanks mate, had to be the red for me. Your car's looking sharp as well pal [emoji106]
-
Thanks mate never did catch you, was over at the hardstyle stand but you guys must have been elsewhere Yeah much the same weather as travelling down in! Slowed down to get a look at your car's [emoji6]
-
My photos of the day [emoji106] Didn't take many was too busy eating the over priced burgers and drooling over the cars that where there [emoji1] Thanks to all involved in organising was good to meet some of the guys and put names to faces
-
Nice clean example, Jurgen is the man. Welcome mate
-
Seems to vary alot for insurance, I'm 22, clean license, none fault claim last year so still have my 4 years ncb, the cars a 98' RZ with minimal mods that are declared and I'm £998 through Graham Sykes. Adrian flux wanted near £1400 for the year and Sky insurance wouldn't insure me at all. Was asked by the guy if I'd had a rwd car before which I hadn't and then came back and said they weren't able to insure me?
-
Thanks I'll maybe have a look there. Yeah they're not the cheapest the koyos

Where did you get your mishimoto radiator from mate? Debating one of them or a koyorad

Hi folks I'm looking to change my timing belt in the next few weeks and will be replacing it with the gates racing kevlar belt and whilst I'm in there changing the tensioner with a genuine toyota one also for peace of mind. Would it be necessary to change the tensioner pulley it's self or are these known for quite a long life? The car is a 98 with 72/300 km on so approx 40 something thousand miles.
