Easy to spend big amounts when you start going for big bhp

[mark newman]

it seems that way. it a bit of a snowboard in the end. but you got to go with it.

[pistonbroke]

You're gonna need new wheels then, those brakes aren't going under the Anteras

 

Looks awesome Mark, that car deserved the 15 large you've put into it. It was a stunning base to start with, it was absolutley immaculate when I had it. I'm chuffed to bits to see it ended up in the hands of a real enthusiast.

 

Though I have to admit I was a little concerned when you got hold of it after seeing what you did to your last supra

[mark newman]

No not new wheels as well , and the list goes on. Are you sure looks like a lot of room to me. Angle grinder small amount out and then they will fit snug as a bug in a rug.

[pistonbroke]

Possibly mate, you might be lucky. I know UK's wouldn't fit.

 

Supra T had them wheels (before he smashed them up) on his single turbo supe, and I think he may have after market bigger brakes. Might be worth checking before fitting yours.

[mark newman]

You was right, No way are they fitting. Now im after some wheel spacers

[mark newman]

Thanks Yeah i know me too

[pistonbroke]

I'm not a fan of spacers, sell the wheels and buy a set that fit.

[JamieP]

Spacers are fine if decent quality IMO, with 4mm you will need longer studs, Titan sell ARP ones.

[mplavery]

Looking good mark !

 

Looking forward to see what numbers she produce

[Homer]

Very nice Mark and good choice of components IMO, should give you some good power with that setup

 

Amazing turnaround time by Whifbitz too

[mark newman]

thanks for that , but will go with spacers, only 5m/m needed .

[mark newman]

Ok, I have now booked the car in to be be mapped by Ryan on the 15th

[mark newman]

Quick update, Managed to fit the brembos with some spacers.

 

 

 

Also a picture of the line lock button

 

[pistonbroke]

Nice one mate, is that a dent in the drivers door above the rear vent recess part?

[lui]

Welcome to the single club now Mark mate take it easy now with all the power that's going to be leashed out under the hood & all the best with the mapping & great install as well you should come to the supra only night ace cafe will be great to see on the 22nd of this month cheers Lui

[mark newman]

No dents yet, mapping will be done by Ryan on wednesday at SRR at 330 pm .

[mark newman]

Well today i got the car mapped by Ryan, All was well untill we wanted to go over 1.0 Bar for some reason the boost controller wouldnt allow it. So i'm now going to purchase a Greedy controller and all should be well. It managed to do around 500bhp at 0.9 Bar. Ryan is comfortable that this will reach 700bhp with a new controller.
