  1. Thanks James, According to the AA Route planner - I should go round the M25 and then M4-A4? Cheers
  2. Is there easy parking available there? James, If you could pm your mobile number just in case I need directions!! Ro
  3. Hi Nic, Do the rears come with the handbrake shoes or do the jap ones fit? Thanks
  4. How about this stuff: http://www.renovointernational.com/products/p_wpolish.php
  5. I believe Chris Wilson is doing a special offer on UK fast road pads (back and front) for £150. Even better reason to get your UK brakes! Ro
  6. 1. Rob Spinks (Rob, hope you don't mind me putting your name down here, please feel free to edit if necessary. BTW I'm not sure what your user name is?) - Front and Rears. 2. Terribleturner - Front and Rears please. 3. SupRo - Fronts please
  7. Sorry guys, more braking questions (due to Nic's group buy!) Does anyone have this setup - Front UK, Rear standard Jap? Is braking drastically improved by changing the jap fronts only to UK? Or is braking performance significantly increased when you only change both front and rear japs to UK? Thanks, Ro

  9. James, Thor had a secondhand boost tank - £80. I think a new one is £120+ About half hour labour for someone who knows what they're doing. I'm sure some of the people here will have spare ones as you don't need the Boost pressure tank when you go single. This is the downside of the 'troublesome sequential system'!! Cheers, Ro
  10. Of course they do! I totally forgot...I had to replace my handbrake shoes not too long ago
  11. The Boost Pressure tank is a pain to change!! It's at the back of the engine. An easier way is to get hold of the hoses/stick longer ones and stick them on a new tank and place the new tank on top of the spark plug cover (at the back) but it does look unsightly. Thor did mines Ro
  12. Mate, I have experience of custom/powerflow zorsts. In my opinion they are poo. Joins leak, and you'll be lucky if the exhaaust doesn't touch or hit anything that it shouldn't. My mate who used Poweflow had same problems. Go for off the shelf like Blitz Nur spec or RSR. Ro
  13. I'm thinking of changing my jap front brakes to UK - Silly question probably - can the Jap front setup go on the rear!!??? If it can, is it worth it? Thanks, Ro
  14. I'll probably find the coppers waiting for me when I get home tonight!
  15. James, I get this too... I had my hoses, wastegate, actuator, boost pressure tank checked but still got the problem.....Boost pressure tanks are prone to failure especially at BPU level apparantly. Cheers, Ro
  16. sh1t! My names Ro and I'm from Luton!
  17. I had the 2.2 non vtec (si) prelude - It had been messed about with in Japan and was a little faster than a Vtec unit - Still my favourite car..ever! Even though i love the TT supra and it's faster. With the prelude you feel every Bhp!

    Paint job....

    I didn't know that, I stand corrected. Penguin, Are you sure yours is Quicksilver. As Bromy (Nick) has pointed out, Quicksilver is on facelift cars and yours is 93??? Just trying to make sure you get the right paint! Cheers, Ro

    Paint job....

    Oh right. Is there not just one shade of silver? Cheers, Ro

    Paint job....

    It's definitely 199! If you want just a spray can - Halfords do it..also under the name of Lucerne silver!

    Paint job....

    Got mines from Autopaint. Paint was exact match and they are one of the cheapest. Paint code is 199 I think. http://www.autopaint.co.uk/ Cheers, Ro
  23. Na! I would have remembered! I'm sometimes de-spoilered if not I have the Parkbench GT spoiler on the boot!

    Water in Boot

    My car is parked on a an incline on the driveway. Because of the angle, I get rainwater collecting on the rain gutters on either sides of the tailgaite. Maybe something similar is happening to your?
  25. 16v6n, Do you remember what colour the Supra was? any distinctive Bodystyling or wheels?
