  1. Cool, thank you. I really like (Xquisite Automotive) K's E46 M3 he done a couple of months ago. Was thinking something along those lines. I love the red, but thats been done now. Anyone think of any other two tone colours that might work with white? I need inspiration! Andy
  2. Anyone got any pics of one? Cant decide if it would look gay on a Supe or not. There doesn't seem to be much of a natural line to break two colours in. Andy
  3. Lol, no, im 5"11 and about the same in width! Just nimbler than I look, and spent many an afternoon upside down in a footwell wiring in stereos etc. You think thats hard? Try spending half a day under a dash of an Elise wiring in head unit, sub etc etc! THAT'S CRAMPED! Andy
  4. The MAP wires i black with a yellow stripe. I fitted mine at the weekend, Took me no time at all. Very simple. Any hassles, pop me a PM and I can talk you through how I did it. Andy
  5. Nicely specc'ed ReX there, Jurgen! The Scoot bonnet looks gorgeous against a white car too. Really not a fan of the kit though. Especially the rear quarter panels. Who put it on? Stevie Wonder??? Andy
  6. Stupid question, but I presume this wires in to the plugs in the drivers side footwell? had a quick look at the car (in the dark!) and its the only multiplug that resembles this piccy. Sorry for sounding dim! Andy
  7. No, that's fine, Ive got a restrictor ring to go on as well (between the two decat pipes I assume?). Andy
  8. Not sure if there is confusion here? My car is delimited, but I think Im right in thinking that if I go BPU I need the TRL converter that I have bought to stop the turbos boosting over 1.2 bar. Is this right? Andy
  9. Anyone tried? I have a full BPU set sitting at home, and might have a go fitting it at the weekend. Feel okay about fitting decat pipes and spark plugs, but how hard is it to wire in a Boost Cut defender? Positive wire, easy Negative wire, easy, MAP In & OUT? HELP??? Andy
  10. Fox on the River opposite Hampton Court Palace? Thats quite nice in the summer with a reasonably sized car park. Andy
  11. Right, made a start in putting the Do Luck style rear spats on the car. Basically, Im blending the skirts in, but leaving the bumper line. I dont think it looks too bad. What do others think? I figured if I really dont like it, I can cut a line down the spats level with the bumper line to give the spats the appearance of being in two bits, but I dont think I need to. Obviously, I still have a lot of smoothing to go, but this should give you an idea of what they look like. Although, now I need a set of spacers to bring the rear wheels out a bit. Bugger! Andy
  12. I have considered this, but his Pokemon and Ninja Turtle toy demands far exceeds my bank balance. lol Andy
  13. Kind of. The sideskirts will have a bead of fibreglass blending them in, so retaining all the original lines, no shape loss, but the appearance of one panel. Im not over keen on the whole 'bolt on' look. Not sure about the back of the sideskirts yet, the part where they replace the air ducting panels. Cant decide whether to leave that vertical line or blend it in. Andy
  14. Hello all, Going to fit my Do Luck spats over the next couple of days and cant decide how to play it. My options are;..... 1.Bond spats on and use a little fibreglass to take away the seam line. Not to lose the shape, but purely just to make it one continuing shape. Only problem is Im not sure if this will look odd, as there will still be the line seperating the rear quarter from the rear bumper. 2.Offer spats up, mark a line all the way down the spats where the bumper line would be, cut the spats in half (vertically), and bond one part onto the rear quarter, and the other onto the rear bumper, so as to keep the original bumper line. 3.Bond the rear bumper to the rear quarters with a high impact epoxy bond, then skim over the bumper line and blend the spats in, making a very smooove rear. But would this look to smooth? Anyone else blended their rear bumper? Would be great to see pics if you have. Any other opinions??? A very confused (and somewhat bored of thinking about a bodykit!!!) Andy
  15. These are actually very good filters, and a worthy contender for a modder who doesn't want to spend silly money on a Japanese brand. I would recommend one of these. Not got one on my Supe, but have fitted them on other cars and I think they are a very good alternative. Nice and shiny in a Blitz-esque way too if you want something pretty for a bit of bling bling! Andy
  16. Am I not allowed to come with you then, IICause OneII???? Humph! Andy

  18. Evening all! When I had my Mazda, Clive from Mazda Rotary Club organised a day at Brooklands for all Rotary cars to come and show off in a nice sized show n' shine area. Fantastic atmosphere, coupled with an awesome location, and trophies etc for cleanest car etc etc. made a fantastic day. think entrance was something like £15 a head, purely just to cover the rent of the location really. Perhaps this might be a great idea for us? Now, Iam still relatively new, and if something like this is already done, shoot me down now! Appreciate it may be a little too late to organise for this year, but if we were to arrange something for Supra owners in, say, end of March/beginning of April, it could be kinda like a pre-show season meet for us all to get to know one another (as Im sure Im not the only new member over the last 12 months, as well as giving us all a good reason/excuse to shine up our cars and get our butts in gear for showtime! Would appreciate feedback. if it's an administrative contraint, I would be happy to organise something for us all? I think it could make a really good day. Regards Andy
  19. Forget the shine. Do it matt black! It will look evil as sin. Trust me, no one will get too close for fear of it biting them! Andy
  20. I dont understand why Breadline thinks this is new? It's been on the Erebuni website for a good year or so now? Bizarre! Andy
  21. lol, thanks, all! Well, mate, I will do you a favour... give me til the end of February, and I will paint mine a bright, fresh, different colour to stop your car feeling too common! Andy
  22. lol, that'll teach him to play with fibreglass, wont it!? Glad you like the wheels. Im chuffed to bits with them! Andy
  23. 4 used alloys. Pretty chipped/kerbed etc, and one alloy needs a repair (see second picture). Someone has attempted this and bodged it, so needs someone who knows what they are doing. Might do someone a turn as a winter set of wheels or for track use. Looking for £40 and to be collected from the Croydon area. Rear tyres are both worn, front has newish Pirellis on, so might be worth it to someone just for the tyres! Oh yeah, and will throw in a set of locking nuts too. PM me if your interested. Andy
  24. More new bits have arrived this week! Got spats to fit at the weekend. This should give you an idea of what they look like though, courtesy of my expert fitter?!? AND my nice new shiny wheels arrived at lunchtime, so they were on by, well, 12.15!!! Anyway, heres a couple of pics to show how my project is coming along. Andy
