  1. Might have to get some stickers up the side too to gain a little more! +another 5bhp each!
  2. So i had my car set up finally. Polished crank and refreshed engine ARP rod bolts ARP head stud kit TT head gasket 440cc rx7 injectors all refurbished and flow matched Emanage blue piggyback Turbo kit is from xs power but the turbo has been rebuilt by universal turbos wether this made much difference im unsure Blitz SBC boost controller Bpu spark plugs Act stage 3full face organic clutch Some sick rays racing wheel nuts +5bhp I was shooting for 400... Car made 454.7bhp at 12psi which i was staggered at but due to running a w58 its down to 10psi which is nearer 430.. Happy days! Will dig out a photo of the graph as soon as i can, he said the turbo had much more to give but he was on the limit of the injectors and ecu
  3. I did message about the matrix and dampener mate?
  4. Do you know if the heater matrix is the same on all supras? I suppose it will be?
  5. Isn't the oil issue something to do with the rings? My mate had the s4 v8 which is pretty much the same heart i think? Used a litre of oil to a tank of fuel, soon sold it on to we buy any car as it wasn't getting any better.. Full service history etc. Im not sure what it was but apparently they have a pretty major issue with rings wearing prematurely? His was a "57" plate
  6. On top of that youd be wise to crank it by key with the spark plugs out u till your oil pressure light goes out too, takes the load off the big ends till they have oil up there,
  7. Brilliant result, lesson learnt for all of us!
  8. As per title, I've got 4 but obviously need another 2, a long shot but if you don't ask you don't get!

  10. i knew it was a 'P' haha. gorgeous cars mate. i comletely forgot to give you a shout AC, will give you a heads up next time, ill be popping up to MK sunday more then likely though if you fancy a blat
  11. Think it was a arranged one off location kind of meet, was worth the trip from Luton thouhh
  12. Met 2 people last night, david with the grey na-t 6 speed and the white tt6 i think Paul comes to mind but im probably completely wrong... Gorgeous cars put my red na-t to shame! One or 2 other supras there too was a good meet!
  13. Oh ok cheers for the heads up! Ill give him a ring when im back in the UK and go from there, fingers crossed!
  14. I've done the work myself, built engines in the past and have 10 years or so behind me working on cars and engineering in general, but as for mapping i think greg at protuner keeps popping up as a decent recommendation...? Its only a basic build with xs manifolds etc and an Emanage blue but I've done a few hard wear upgrades to the block with the intention to upgrade the turbo and waste gate as and when they go pop basically.
  15. Just treated myself to a Blitz SBC, the newest style, anyone running one? Look to be a decent bit of kit!
  16. much to the annoyance of my Mrs who's now sound asleep (i owe you a beer for that!) I've sat and read this start to finish! Been a fair journey with your build! Im glad to see you kept the factory red too which is my next step after my na-t is mapped in the coming weeks! Top job bud.
  17. Yep, i just used bolts with flat washers and nylock nuts
  18. My mate is selling a leon cupra 1.8t, i had an Ibiza with the 1.8t was a good car and reasonably good on fuel, but MUCH better than a supra lol, hesbin Barton springs
