Torque 668nm @ 3500rpm !!

I would buy one and then slap all your asses.

Unfortunally, it does look like an old slipper so I'd be back here with TAZ and you would flame me for my efforts

Oh that looks scarey - lets do it

Terry - you first m8 !!!!

And whingers

And thieving scouse shites (I heard !)

Mine is a Star Wars character that featured in a few of the books. And it's better than my real name, but is kinda similar.

Somebody shoot me !

What is the deadline - can I take pics at the Bovingdon meet ?

Oh folks, not impressed with UK brakes, had Brembos before and were ok. Who has experience of good braking systems on here ?

I have been advised that the AP 6 pots groved (not vented) are a good buy.

I need them to clear no wider than 1 cm more than UK brakes to fit the SSR Decolte Evolution wheels I have.

What size (mm) discs could I have I wonder ?

Who is an AP/Brembo fan ?

What options are open to me ?

Have you hear of the 8 and 10 pot braking systems ?

Do any Supras have those on that we know of ?

(You don't have to answer all these questions but a good discussion on brakes is always lively !)

What do you think about this?

Wibble.

Yep, good idea. Someone needs to register

http://www.eurosuprameet.com/

or

http://www.europeansuprameet.com/

and point it at these forums for now. Could this be a job for SUPER TED ? er Keith ? ESM.com has already been taken. I think Faye has registered it already for English Supra Marriages (.com) lol !

(Oh im sooooo gonna get flamed!)

44. Whitelightning (TAZ), we haven't got a clue what we are doing but it should be fun

Ta Terry.

Do you think the car unable to cope with 9k rpm after the engine rebuild ?

Whats a sensible top limit then ? I was going to go for just shor of 9k tbh.

I am also concerned with the fault from the Crank sensor at 7150rpm.

Mark said that Leon has the same sensor and he had no problems so it could be the sensor malfunctioning ? The Autronic doesn't know so it airs on the side of caution and cuts power.

Terry any ideas on that one ?

Well a dyno will solve it once and for all.

It just doesnt feel that quick yet. It could be a number of factors.

The results I posted were from the road testing we did, Mark on laptop, me on 100% throttle at various boost settings. Terry advised 1.5 bar to be safe so I went for that as a higher setting on the SBC.

She definately does not come on full boost (through the gears and not in 6th) below 5000rpm. I do know that I have some potential areas that could be leaking boost from intercooler piping to a "possible" hole in the intercooler (although I am satisfied this is not the case).

Hey - I am not complaining, I simply though you folks might want my opinion and some source data from our testing

Still much work to do on TAZ - which is what I like about our cars. Who wants a finished product ? We would get bored eh ?

Thanks to Mark from MA Developments for tuning my car yesterday.

TAZ picks up well and is producing a true 1.5 bar now.

Adjusted water injection to come on earlier, semi-solved aircon switch issue with the ECU (Autronic) and identified a crank sensor problem (She safely cuts out at 7150rpm - which some 2000 rpm sooner than she is designed to go to) which I will speak to Terry S about later.

Also if anyone is interested our BL74 practical stats, this tricked turbo comes on full boost at 5000rpm through the gears and 4500 in 6th. So It is my humble opinion that (despite the power) most of you are better off with the BL 61 or 67 series in the UK. I think the BL74 reacts like a GReddy T88, abeit the T88 produces a little more power (for you dragster nutters).

I am finding TAZ to more behaved than WHITELIGHTNING, but this is due to Terry S working on the suspension and car setup and is not attributable to the choice of turbo.

TAZ is not dyno'd yet but we think she sits around 500bhp. I would be interested to get her tested on a reputable dyno now she is tuned, just to see what torque that might be.

I would also like to create a 1.8 bar map at a later date for meets and trackwork, but am not keen to go much higher. (Especially after the 4" BL exhaust upgrade).

So if you have an Autronic ECU - get yourself down to Mark Shead in Maidenhead who is a whizzkid on the products. And Mark, get your Evo back on the road !!

The next quality up is near 300MB.

Not realy hostable online.

Michael, your awakening was recorded on someone's telephone was it not ?

If I meet up with people I can burn a CD and give to them.

Im not in the business of being a CD replicator so am not offering to send them out by post to everyone.

One of our ESM2005 crew just pointed out something.

 

The germans also wanted to plan something, maybe you/we should see what they have planned? It would be rather stupid if there are 2x ESM's in the same year Although... would probably mean twice the fun!!!

So who else is organising an event.

I wanna go to Germany - we can go fast there

Traitor

Burn her - shes a witch !

JohnK, I have been editing the video, its basiclly done and is being uploaded now.

DO YOU KNOW HOW LONG IT TOOK TO EDIT OUT YOUR ABUSIVE FINGER WORK ??

Well, some of it was timely and funny so it stayed in , the video is 20 mins long and I have got it down to 50mb for the web version. I shall have to send out the original to the participants as a momento

Now if only this would up load quicker . . .

. . . . watch this space as they say

Cheap run around then

Oh the happy days of the T88

Roll on 1.5 bar !!

Thats where my sister got married . . .

Hang on is THAT my sister ? LOL !!

Nope, but same sunset on on all here piccies, we tried to have her thrown off into the volcanoe but her husband rescued her.

I had the best chance of silencing her lhasa apso whilst she was away too

Damn !

Nothing is impossible

Good idea.

Sag - and yes Sagitarius is me

Doesn't look good.

But what hes says doesnt add up.

300bhp or the 426 Hemi ?

Its an old car so you might keep up.

Yeah it was a shame, I don't know what advertising SONID did to get people on board, I found out from this forum in this thread, i wonder if they posted in other forums ?

I personally wasnt going to enter any competitions, Im not that competitive and TAZ is not ready to be thrashed. The Danish loved Mkivs and I wish there had been more there. But one good thing did come out of this, my awareness of the other Supra models Believe me if the Danish COULD have mkivs they WOULD !! I feel sorry for them and their car tax system

But part of the event was the drive there and back, we all love driving our cars and we got to play on the German autobahns

Even grumpy JohnK was smiling

Wears out your left leg quicker for sure.

I'M A SINGLE FLICKER !

And proud of it.

Look, flick, move quickly and observe

Rinse and repeat

If you are going to take all day manoeuvring then you are more of a hazzard.

Move swiftly and smoothly, indicating with a few blips for those nutters behind.

In Germany, you are going so fast that I beleive the Germans move first and flick later to ensure getting into the gap

(I took my test in Germany BTW)
