  1. Oh yeah, Tony sorted out my geometry. Top man!
  2. Can't they get hold of longer bolts!?
  3. A few months ago, details are on the link in my previous post above. erm, another trial! Cheers, Ro

  5. Just make sure they do. They said mines did but it didn't and I saw a Trial rear bumper flying in mid air on my rear view mirror!
  6. Yup, OEM side skirts can catch the bottom of the doors and then start rusting! You can have the doors grinded down and resprayed!
  7. Run away while you still can mate! Congratulations and best wishes.
  8. Not true, depends on the car. Same thing happened to me - the other car (Audi A4) came round a bend too fast, into my lane and clipped my (Shitty megane) mirror and smashed it. It was a courtesy car so I chased and stopped the driver and got his details. His mirror was totally fine! lol.
  9. I paid £80 for one of these bad boys! So thats a good price! Good to have one spare as they can leak.

    key

    Thats a solar sensor mate. Is yours a UK car brett? The UK car has a factory alarm so it may be for that but I'm not sure. Otherwise I'm sure none of the Jap models came with factory alarm/immobiliser? Give Steve Manley a call - he may be able to clarify: http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?t=41383

    mpg is a joke

    Check for any misfiring too - on the NA you can get vacuum leaks on the gasket inbetween the inlet manifold and throttle body. Check for exhaust joint leaks too
  12. I have just installed Sky Broadband. It uses a modified version of the Netgear DG834GT router which I think is a very good router; I've had one before. Contrary to what I've read, I have been able to change the settings including the SSID. Apparently you can only use the supplied router for Sky Broadband. See the following for more details: http://www.skyuser.co.uk/forum/sky-router/772-sky-router-setup-configuration.html And http://www.macworld.co.uk/forums/msgs.cfm?msg=80440&forum=1

    Undersealing

    My Jap car has been in the UK for 3.5 years and done 50K++ miles through all seasons. The bottom of the car is still in very good condition. It's never had undersealing.
  14. I've raced tons of different Scoobies, standing and rolling starts. I would say don't even worry too much about standing start race if you can launch well (and it's not raining!). On my Jap BPU TT6 I find launching at 3000 revs to be effective. Practise launching on a private road.
  15. Thanks Hadyn. The Trial rear is pants and adds drag!
  16. About 5:45 pm, Going from Farnborough towards Fleet via the road inbetween the Airport and retail parks. L reg with 19" wheels I think.
  17. Hi Mark, Can you put my best times up from post 419 please? http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showpost.php?p=1379302&postcount=419 Thanks, Ro

  19. Yup, not making enough load. Most of my runs were 1.15 bar max even though my boost is set higher with quite high gain/duty
  20. May have been me mate - Mines is BPU with 3" DeCats and the Old HKS Hiper Exhaust. Shame they don't make that exhaust anymore - It's very loud!
  21. There was a few that fit that description! Mines doesn't have a spoiler. May have been Ed (Suprastar 3000)?
