  1. Cheers guys. Glad you all like. I coated the wheels with chemical guys wheel guard, seems ok so far but haven’t washed them yet. I’ll probably coat the exhaust with it as well...
  2. A few big changes recently so time to update my thread. In September I ordered my dream wheels. Brand new CCW Classics fully polished 18x11.5 rear & 18x10 front. 3 long months later I got an early Xmas present [emoji320] Great service from Titan motorsports whilst purchasing these. A couple of weeks later once Xmas was out of the way I decided to go abit mad on the tyres. I wanted a set of R888Rs bit Toyo have stopped offering 315/30/18 in the uk so I ended up with Pirelli P Zeros. Very little choice in this size unfortunately. The tyre stickers were abit fiddly to fit but I love them. I tried to hold off fitting the wheels till summer but after a couple of weeks of them sitting in my living room I couldn’t wait any longer. Then a few days later I dropped the car into Whifbitz for an engine bay makeover. Went for gloss black powder coating on the inlet, cam covers and various other parts. Powerhouse racing spark cover, blingy power steering reservoir, blue cam gears with clear cover, gates racing timing belt, carbon bonnet struts, polished turbo housing and water elbow. We also did a new extra breather system to the catch can with tasty braided hoses. Chucked a 4” Whifbitz exhaust on there while it was in. Hangs a little low but the practicality ship sailed off long ago, it is LOUD now! I think it looks naughty from behind now! During this time I bought my first place (very happy) so here she is at my new home, and she even got a new home of her own! Hope you all like the progress guys. See you at ace cafe soon and hopefully a few more meets this year!
  3. Thanks guys didn’t even think of likwid art!
  4. Hi everyone My inlet manifold and some other parts are off getting powder coated and polished at the moment. When they come back I will have to replace the ETCS sticker. I know these are a few quid from Toyota but does anyone know of somewhere that sells something more interesting to stick there?
  5. Lovely. I will be getting a set of these soon too. Be interested to hear how they perform.
  6. It was a couple of years ago now but I think it was around £1600-1700 for the front and rear seats, gear gator, handbrake, centre and side armrests and headlining. Thread with lots of pics here... https://r.tapatalk.com/shareLink?share_fid=12714&share_tid=333231&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww%2Emkivsupra%2Enet%2Fvbb%2Fshowthread%2Ephp%3Ft%3D333231&share_type=t
  7. I can check mine when I get the car back, hopefully next week if you can hold on? You can have a look for yourself when the car comes up to you if you like...
  8. Guys name is Simon his company is called hide n seat. Done my whole interior, great job too
  9. I got one of eBay for a tenner or so
  10. When I was 18 I had a big crash in my V6 Ford Cougar, instead of scrapping it I spent £2k fixing it on the cheap. It was never right after no matter how much money I threw at it so I sold it for £1250. Then I bought a proper car... MR2 Turbo which I should have kept as I loved it and miss it to this day. Would have been a great alongside the Supra. So 2 regrets there...
  11. Single turbo 6 speed manual here, currently around 700 fwhp and will be going for more eventually. With the roof on it drives the same as a coupe, roof off and you can notice a slight difference but that’s generally cruising mode anyway [emoji41] go mad mate you will love your car even more
  12. Black roof lining for an aero is going to be next to impossible to find mate. I had mine retrimmed in Black alcantara by a guy on here and completely changes the interior. Not too expensive either...
  13. Hello mate. Hope you’re well. Do you have one of these then? Btw I’ll be in touch in the next month or so to do some bodywork. Your inbox is full btw Cheers Karl
  14. Does anyone know where to get one of these from nowadays? This is the sort of thing I’m after...
  15. Paid. I would pay the £35 for the parade lap as well. I’m sure we would get the whole session so we could have a few hot laps too. I also paid a tenner for 3 sprints, which I’m guessing is a quarter mile?
  16. Interested. Send you a pm for the code. Link isn’t working for me either
  17. [emoji23] excellent work [emoji23] Cheers guys I reckon it’s probably brake fluid, will report back once I’ve checked it.
  18. Hi guys Last couple of times I’ve driven my car the main red light on the Rev counter will light up occasionally for a few seconds then go out, just randomly while driving along. Something is tripping it just not sure what. I know the doors and handbrake make it light up but what else?
  19. I don’t think these ever fit perfectly, I was close to getting one but this is why I left it
