  1. Im 22 with 5 yrs no claims but 3 points for going through amber light. The only place that would touch me was elephant. I got, for me and the missus (who has 3 points also) £1600 fully comp. Thought that was decent for an imported car. Would only have been 850 if it was UK. Gaz
  2. Thought its sounded too good to be true. Didnt even give a location so we could go kick tyres
  3. Can everyone else take a look at this, think its a con. All his other sold items are dvds and clothing and all of a sudden he pops up with a 93 TT 6sp for 3500. Dont think so http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=4508961550&ssPageName=STRK:MEWA:IT
  4. Cheers for that. How much are they delivered? I live in Lancashire. Gaz
  5. Just recently bought a Meganracing de-cat downpipe and tried to have it fitted today. Was assured it would fit my car (and to be fair the guy has offered a refund) but found out today that it wouldnt. Its a little hard to explain without a picture but ill explain: Coming from back of car to engine the old pipe goes to the top cat then bends slightly to the left and then right so that the flat "face" of it (couldnt think of right term) is pointing slightly right as it attches to the turbo. Now the new one, cos it misses out the cat, doesnt have this "kink" in it and so is completely straight, with a slight left facing end. Obviously it wont therefore attach to the turbo. Im assuming it is because mine is a J-spec and the DP was made for UK/USA but was assured it would still fit. Has anyone else had a similar problem or can suggest something to correct this. If not can someone suggest where to get a J-spec decat 3" downpipe as soon as possible cos mines blowing like nothing else. Cheers for the help, the description may not make any sense (im a complete novice when it comes to engines im afraid) but can draw a picture if it helps. Gaz
  6. Not read the whole thread so dont know if this has already been mentioned so appologies if it has, but did anyone see it on Top Gear the other week. Clarkson taking a Jag Diseisel round in 10mins. Piss funny. Gaz
  7. Hi Chris. Ive just got hold of ur number and was gonna give u a ring to arrange a service for my supe. What else do you do or is it a case of what dont you do? Ive got a list as long as my arm that needs doing. If i mail you them could you tell me whether you could help and how long ud need it for etc. Cheers Gaz
  8. Count me in as long as i can iron out a few probs with my exhaust and turbos. Gaz
  9. cheers for that mate. thought bout trying them but didnt think they would be the best. ill give em a try over weekend. Actually, have you heard of a place in morecambe called Collins Performance. Heard of it today, meant to be good for supras but the guy didnt know if it was there or in Cheshire? Gaz
  10. Nah mate, must be another. The one i know of is a completely standard red 'un. Think its TT 6sp like mine tho. Sorry didnt understand what you meant with the parts. Is the company called "All Parts"?
  11. How do i contact Chris then? Ill give him a bell see what he can do. I know what you mean bout them being rare up here Paul. Only seen 1 other since i got mine and thats here in Preston as well, imported at the same time as mine. Where do you get your parts from?? Cheers for the help. Gaz
  12. My Soup is ready for a service was just wondering (being a bit of a newbie) if it was ok just to take it to my local garage for it or whether anyone would recommend taking it to a specialist performance car garage or something like that. If that's the case can anyone recommend any in the North West area (lancashire preferably). Also does anyone know of anywhere in the area with a Dyno? having probs losing power and need to know where from. Cheers Gaz
  13. Does anyone know where the nearest rolling road is to Preston, Lancs? Also any info on how much they cost, what they can do and check etc? Cheers Gaz
  14. Bummer. Really like the wheels as well and under 400 quid!!! Cheers for the help and quick reply fella. Just out of interest what offset am i looking for??
  15. Doesnt say, they are new. Its says they would fit "most" jap cars but i thought id better check. The PCD is ok though isnt it? Is there any way i could modify so they would fit?
  16. Would wheels with fitment of 5 x 114.3 and offset of 30" fit a 94 Supra TT??
  17. The sounds possible. Hopefully get new exhaust in next few weeks so will have to see if it sorts it. Any suggestions on which exhaust anyone. Been looking at HKS Supperdragger and Blitz NUR spec.
  18. Its a HKS full system but dont know if the downpipe was changed (had exhaust on already when bought it). The blowing deffinately seems to be coming from the front of the car.
  19. Hi, I recently bought an imported Supra TT 6spd and went like a rocket at first. Recently though ive noticed it is loosing power when accelerating. The turbo was running very comfortably at 0.9 BAR and nw it gets to 0.8 and "Sticks" as if something is blocking it. The exhaust is blowing from near the downpipe which is gettin sorted in next few weeks. Is it likely that this is the cause or could it be something else. Cheers
