  1. Lol, I did think that. I only took out the drivers side and the Bulb holders were correct. The taillights are supposed to be the outer ones right? Both the inner ones are still working as foglights and brake lights but it's just the drivers side one that is working as a tail light now too! Thanks
  2. I noticed something not right the other day when I switch my headlights on. On the rear tailgate lights, The outer passenger side red light comes on and the INNER drivers side red light comes on too! It should be the outer drivers side that should come on? All the brake lights work. The two inner red lights have been converted to fog lights (Brake light still working on these). Does it sound like a relay may have become dodgy? What do I look for? Thanks, Ro
  3. Thanks Gary, Is there a website with more info? I'm about 5 mins drive from there!
  4. My Stereo Head Unit has a built in Volt meter!
  5. Where abouts is that? Near Blackbush airport?

    Need a service

    Hi Mate, I'm from Luton and there's a few more members here too. The Luton Toyota dealership is OK for parts (speak to Walter) but not for servicing/maintenance. For Servicing and maintenance go to Phoenix in Watford. Speak to Mark. Phoenix Unit 15 Bridle Path Watford WD17 1UE 01923 228484 PM me if you get stuck or fancy meeting up. Cheers, Ro
  7. The stock items if bought brand new will probably have to be ordered in anyway - Try: http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?t=41383&highlight=steve+manley They give a discount and good delivery service. You may find some of the parts secondhand. Try Pro alloys (Trader on here). A member called 'Fish' had a bonnet for sale. Check the 'for sale' section too. Cheers, Ro
  8. I hope the problem is sorted Dave. I'm sure Mark will be able to service your Porsche too. Ro
  9. There was a great one of Rush doing a burnout! Not sure who has the clip!
  10. Glad you are OK mate - Hope it all gets sorted out soon.
  11. James, May be worth seeing Mark at Phoenix as they have good experience of the V160/161 gearbox? Cheers, Ro
  12. I think it's worth this thread moving to Supra chat?
  13. Anyone who has video footage of the Dragonball please send your copy to Si as he is trying to include as much additional footage as he can to the DVD!: http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?t=95347 Thanks Si and all, Ro
  14. I used to work for them too! On my Amex card application, where it had "Employer.." I put down "you"! Amex is fussy about credit scores. If you are ever invited to receive one of their Centurion cards (Black and made of titanium) then your credit score is probably 1,000000+++!

    Tyre Sizes

    No worries mate. Mr lover and his 19"...... (lol) http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/vbpicgallery.php?do=view&g=285 Edit - you can also try PM'ing these two members for the tyre sizes they use, as they have the same wheels. SUPRALOOPY kosmic Cheers, Ro

    Tyre Sizes

    Ahh! - They will be 9.5" rear and 8.5" front then! Lots of people with Mania Pacifics - I use the tyres as on my post above - Jazz1 is selling those new and cheap

    Tyre Sizes

    Mate are you sure about the widths? The width measurement should be taken in-between the outer rim/flange, so only the flat part when you look from top and the wheels are vertical. I say this as I made this mistake recently I run 235/45/19 & Goodyear F1 Eagle GSD3 275/30/19. Depends on offset but 285 is probably max on rear without problems. If you're not running big power then 275 on the back will be fine. My car is lowered, I have no probs on the back. The front tyres rub with the front of the arch lining only on full lock. As for the nuts - It depends on the wheels. I had to use different nuts when I moved from my 18"s to 19"s. Your car height will probably go up slightly. Edit - If you know of a local place that puts tyres on for cheap then try http://www.Blackcircles.com Cheers, Ro
  18. I thought Torque wasn't great on the M5? I would say a 500 BHP Supra
  19. Misfiring will indicate a cylinder is not working correctly. On my old Lexus GS300 (MAF sensor version of the Supra NA engine) there was a vacuum leak on the gasket inbetween the throttle body and inlet manifold which caused misfiring and it was running on 5 cylinders. Have the sparkplugs been changed recently? A dodgy oxygen sensor may cause higher fuel consumption
  20. Imprezza for me. They all think and drive like it's the fastest car in the world!
  21. Is it misfiring at all?
