  1. Wonder if there's a closed off area where we could organise a 'farting around' day ?!? I'd love to give it a go
  2. Looks great mate, me likey ! (Wish I was that good at photoshop ) Go for it ! Matt
  3. Wouldn't normally recommend Halfrauds, but they're batteries have either 3 or 5 year guarantees. We had problems with a battery that was a good couple of years old and they swapped it for a spanky new one - no questions ! Just don't lose the receipt, I was STUNNED I hadn't lost mine Matt
  4. I know exactly what colour I'm doing mine next year, but do you think I can find the paint codes ?!? Apparently, the paints are produced by BASF for Saleen exclusively. I admit sheepishly that I saw the colour on 2 Fast 2 Furious, however - it's a fappin' gorgeous colour and will be mine I was gonna go Candy, but the cost is horrendous and it isn't practical if you're gonna use the car regularly as matching is a nightmare. Here it is : http://www.users.totalise.co.uk/~mshosier/MSHPerf/Lizstick Red Saleen.JPG Chris Rocks on mkivsupra.co.uk has a similar colour which is apparently a Corvette red. The plan is : Add the Veilside Overfenders, eyebrows and rear bumper to my C1 skirts, nose and wing. Then full respray in the above Saleen Lizstick Red (IF I can find the paint codes). I know the Veilside kit is common, but you don't often see a Supe with the FULL kit inc. overfenders\rear bumper etc. I think it'll go loverly with my wheels too Matt PS. Me thinks this'll be a job courtesy of one Dude
  5. In that thread, there is a user called MK4LIFE, and his siggy states Mike World Record Holder for Most HP on Stock Block '98 Supra Turbo - 980rwhp / 746lb/ft TQ Really ? 980 RWHP on stock internals ?
  6. I assume £47k includes all the work to ensure that the car is reliable for 'say' 100k miles in order to retail them with a warranty. But even so, £47k ?!? No chance. And that lag looked pretty horrendous, I have a 2litre MR2 with a hybrid CT26, has a large T4 compressor wheel and a trimmed turbine, yet full boost is by 4000rpms at the very latest. Maybe they've oversized the turbo so that it's not as stressed as much as a smaller one, and then almost tuned it down to 400bhp ? I don't know, just guessing - but to sell a 2litre car producing 400bhp out of the showroom with a warranty can't be an easy task. How pissed would you be if you're £47k Evo went bang every 10k ! Matt

    ebay again

    An A'PEXI engine fan ? HKS Fuel box ? If only I hadn't bought a TT already
  8. I thought the exhausts were photoshopped
  9. Cheers dude, I'll definitely have to come have a chat with you. I will be changing some of the bodykit and having a full respray next year. My car is red and I will be staying with red, but a totally different one and I will need the engine bay doing too. (If I can find the paint code that is - it's proving difficult !) I'll be in touch in the new year. Matt
  10. I assumed it was engine out, but that's a lot of work surely ! And two seperate trades. Doesn't this add disproportionately to the respray costs ?
  11. According to Autoroute, it's 342 miles from me to Envy ! Think I'll be going somewhere a little nearer to home
  12. Roughly how much extra is having the engine bay done ? I will be getting a full respray next year, and so was wondering about this the other day Is it an engine out job ? So if a full windows out respray is 'say' £2,500, how much extra for the engine bay ? Cheers Matt

    Qvc Funny!!

    'I got a damn 2 by 4 in my back seat' :D:D 'I think you sold o ass to the devil' :D:D Now that was funny Matt
  14. I can say NOTHING about the spoiler, I have the Veilside one Looks good mate, look forward to seeing it with the wheels. Don't know if I'd go for the CF bonnet myself, I think the shiney black looks great All the best Matt
  15. Does LPG have an octane level ? I, like many, use Optimax because it is nearer to the octane level my japanese car was setup to use. For all I know, octane levels maybe irrelevant for LPG, but just thought I'd toss this into the arguement Matt
  16. Cheers mitch - now quick, vape the thread before anyone else sees it
  17. I should probably create a new login name for asking daft questions, but never mind Are standard bhp figures at the wheel or crank ? ie 280bhp for the standard TT (and I know it's nearer 300 ) - is that wheel or crank ? Ta Matt
  18. Hello mate, is this the same car ? http://www.injectionimports.com/Injection_Imports_SUPRA.htm If so, might be worth checking nothing has been removed for sale ! All the best with it Matt
  19. Hi all, Anyone got any pics of a Border kitted Supra ? (Except for the pics on the Whifbitz site - seen those ) Cheers Matt
  20. 'You are unique. You are one with the angry Squirrel. Shout 'I am the unique. I am unified with the badger overlord.' People will run away. That's because they're jealous. JEALOUS.. '
  21. Sounds pretty cool Have you uprated the internals at all ? And are you auto or manual ? Matt
  22. Alter Bridge - One Day Remains, Green Day - American Idiot and a ministry of sound compilation that came with a free DVD. The DVD includes Eric Prydz video and goes in the PS2 for the journey home from work Matt
  23. Mine's red but apparently Veilside is too cheesy nowadays Plus this has come 8 months too early, I have plans for my Supe - but that's all they are for now All the best with the search mate Matt
  24. Just read that there's a 95dB noise limit - really ? Time to bung some socks up the NUR spec then ! Matt
