  1. Try your nearest local Toyota dealer. I use the one near me for Jap parts no probs at all and no extra charges. Some can be a bit funny so keep trying until you find a friendly one. Can't help you out anymore than that i'm afraid as we are so far apart.
  2. That was ace mate.lol Best reply yet.
  3. I don't know why mate but had the same problem with mine when i got it. Ended up replacing whole system as it would be too much trouble and money to sort.
  4. Gran Tourismo 3 has a couple of models and Gran Tourismo Concept 2002 Tokyo-Geneva has 3 very nice models to race in. Also the GT series is way ahead of any other racing game out there on any console. Tokyo Highway Battle - avoid like the plague.
  5. Yeah you can do that mate, beware though a lot of crap comes up in those auctions. Need to know what your looking for and check car properly before biding. Best bet take someone with ya who knows what to look for. There are plenty around, manuals normally cost a bit more. If you buy with a bodykit fitted check the quality, wheels beware as sometimes you can't get the same replacements over here if one gets damaged. Personally i would buy a good condition standard car thats been well looked after and then mod it yourself. But hey it's up to you. Good Luck.
  6. Thanks for posting up the pics and vids guys, those of us that couldn't attend appreciate it. Well done DUDE your the man.
  7. That's good advice. I had an RAC warranty on my supe when i first purchased it. The warranty cost £500 and wasn't worth squat every time i claimed i was told that the part was not covered as it came under the wear and tear list. Yawn Suggest you do as advised and stick some money away for a rainy day.
  8. Oh my, colour blind maybe! Only in America.

    Birthday Boy

    Happy birthday mate. If ya have kids mate hope they take after your Mrs. lol:)
  10. Yeah mines been in the bodyshop for 6 weeks and still counting mind that has included fitting a full bodykit and blending it in. Have had to borrow the Mrs car a 1.2 Renault Clio oh how i laughed. Doesn't feel like its moving most of the time, she loves it though bless.
  11. Yeah heard that to. Looks nice though mate. Is Nelson's Gold a polish?
  12. Welcome aboard, will have a look at your site. We likes shoppin.

    Hello All

    Told ya. Welcome aboard.
  15. I would like to have come to guys but cars still in bodyshop let me know when the next local meet is as would like to meet you all. Hope you all have a great night.
  16. So by that he was admitting it was a crap job himself. lol If you want a good job done use a renowned bodyshop in your area. It may cost more but will be worth it in the end. Cheap = problems later and poor finish. Be willing to pay about £200 to £300 for a top job. I have heard Dude is very good don't know if he is near you.
  17. Just a note to say i enquired about a full decat with my local garage, here is what he told me. "If your car is 10 years old or more and a j spec you can remove both cats without worry, of failing an MOT". This is because when the emission test is done most systems won't recognise the information inputed by the mechanic. Of course this all depends upon your friendly garage. Anyone who is interested in using this garage who lives in my area PM me for details. I have used this garage for 3 years they have done all my work to an excellent standard and have never ripped me off.
  18. Yeah suprising the price difference now. You're right there are a lot of NA Supes down here, i eat em up all day long yum yum. Be great if you could come down for the next local meet, don't know when it is yet though think i missed one recently. Pitty insurance prices have not dropped as quickly.
  19. Yeah i know eyes must be failing me as i am getting old. Plus i have got the bloody things on my own car.lol Your lucky i don't have any pics of my car to bore you with. Will soon though Ha! its in the bodyshop. I am a new member but had my supe for three years now decided as i have plenty of time at the moment i would like to join a club and meet others.
  20. Ok Jake no worries mate i was just trying to help thats all. I will shut up now.lol
  21. Christ last time i try to help!!!
  22. When people try to help you Jake its best not to insult them mate. I am correct the picture shown on the Ebay link is of a veilside style rear spat. Check any dealers website ie Whifbitz or Miami Gt.
  23. I know it seems daft mate but its the only way to be sure. Keep a copy of their email reply for proof. Either that or you can ask others their opinion if you are not sure. I.E. if i can help in the future let me know.
  24. Little tip, always email a seller and check wether or not the item advertised is a genuine part or not. This is regardless of their description. That way you are covered and have formal evidence of his or her reply. Ebay is full of dodgy Supra parts. Note how they advertise complete Veilside kits but with Bomex skirts. Most people on Ebay haven't a clue. I have heard many bad stories from there. Also note that it is a Veilside style rear spat that is shown and advertised Toyota do not make these
  25. Ok cheers Mawby look forward to meeting you all. I am quite excited think i managed to talk the other half into coming also.
