    IPHONE's

    What do you use it for mainly Dunk? As the new iphone SE could be a very good option for you, only £419 new.
  2. Yep, the larger re-build kit is part no.: 04493-14160
  3. 50+ Supras at least for the Saturday convoy to the show is what Branners is planning for, as it’s the clubs anniversary year, so this will be a show for the Supra community not to be missed!
  4. Nope, they are different. The part number for the UK spec 1st cat is 17450-46130.
  5. You are correct, the 1st cat is the same on the US and UK spec. A J-Spec will not fit. Second cat has a second O2 sensor on the UK spec.
  6. Thanks for sorting it Alan Realky looking forward to attending again this year! It was a great show last year! Please note that everyone who wants to attend, your show tickets MUST be bought through the Supra forum club shop to be enable you to be on the club stand, as we will have to purchase the club tickets in bulk with the Yakushi show to secure our club plots You will need to buy from the club shop your Yakushi show vehicle display & Camping ticket, and also your Weekend Food and Drink Club Stand Ticket.

    It's not just about the emissions now, they have to see both cats in place.

    Doesn't matter about the decat pipe diameter, the flanges will match up.
  9. Just a few thoughts based on experience. I've learnt that it's best to let your headunit be your headunit, your phone be your phone, and your satnav be your satnav. I've seen alot of the cheap headunits be very buggy, same with software on a car pc etc... so I went with a Kenwood headunit that has wireless apple car play etc... It just works perfectly every time. Satnav you want in your eyeline, and not having to keep glancing down and taking your eyes off the road, especially when we get on it around Europe on custom forced routes on twisty back roads. At the same time I run Waze on the headunit with voice alerts and only look at it when needed. You really don't want to go back in time with mounting switches etc... to the dash mate, keep it simple and OEM. You don't need to be constantly switching boost maps or traction control, I'm willing to bet you will put it on the maximum boost setting and you will never touch it again like most of us lol You also won't need to be monitoring things like the old days with nasty gauges everywhere or on a screen. Just keep it simple and fit a Toucan for the Link ECU, and let it do it's job for you. You can change all your settings from there if you wish, traction control, boost settings, monitor things if you want, but the main benefit of fitting a Link ECU is all the safeguards, and in turn the warning alarms that can be set up on the Toucan. it will bring to your attention anything you need to look at. Then you can spend more time on driving and enjoying the car And the interior will look clean, simple, and OEM++

    If they are standard de-cat pipes it should all just fit.
  11. And if you are adding cams it's a definite no no, mine was leaning out on the dyno when we checked it before the new ecu went in. It was putting out over 500fwhp though! lol
  12. You're right you can, I did for a while, but it's not the wisest tbh. It works, but the driveability is a bit lacking. The difference between the way it drives on the stock ecu compared to it being properly mapped on a LINK ecu by someone who knows what they are doing is night and day! When I took the car for a test drive with Mike after he finished my car I was blown away with how well it drove when just cruising about, it was just like stock with very little lag or hesitation! It was very different on stock ecu I will emphasise that a car on any aftermarket ecu is only as good as your mapper. I know of people who are tight and have mapped them thereselves, but they don't drive great or give out the numbers expected, but they don't know any different tbh. Don't skimp on one of the most important parts of a build.
  13. Depends on how accurate the device you are measuring it is, some can over read.
  14. An OEM one would do the job, but it's finding one. I went with the SRD kit in black as I didn't want to wait until a stock one came up for sale. I also fitted the top rad plate at the same time to seal everything off and force all the air through the intercooler and rad.
  15. Totally agree with Mike, new set of OEM coils every time. I bought a brand new set from Lee at SRD a couple years ago, good price
  16. Yes, Alex West on here is doing this in the UK very soon on his Supra.
  17. There's a much neater DAB aerial you can fit than that one: https://www.dynamicsounds.co.uk/connects2-ct27uv70-universal-discreet-amplified-dab-digital-radio-antenna-glass-mount-aerial.html I used this one, looks better and works great
  18. You're not going to damage it by driving it!? It's just a car lol And what it's designed and built to do. A longer trip isn't going to hurt it, it's just the same as you would normally drive it around mate. Try these https://www.ontime-auto.com/ it's who RAC European breakdown cover used to repatriate mine and Zach's Supra back to the UK from Belgium many years ago. Fully covered trailer with space for a few cars, so could easily fit all your bikes in too.
  19. I don't understand why you can't just drive the Supra there? Is it a non runner?
  20. Haha after fitting the 4" ETS and watching my IAT's actually drop when it comes on boost! That's going to give anyone a semi lol
  21. You can still buy a brand new R154 gearbox from Toyota, that's what I would do.
  22. I understand what you’re saying, but I’d rather vent to atmosphere, which I do, and never seen the point of collecting any oil in a catch can
