JackyBoi Posted March 24, 2016 Share Posted March 24, 2016 Little video from last year. My friends Shelby will go back to his tuner in April ; another pulley will be installed on the supercharger. Then, we will give it another go once the 6870 is mapped. I've only just seen this, but your car sounds absolutely amazing! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Westy Posted March 26, 2016 Share Posted March 26, 2016 What courier did you use to ship the V160 to Jacks mate? I take it they just contact you to arrange pick up also when it's ready to go? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Westy Posted March 26, 2016 Share Posted March 26, 2016 How much was the postage if you don't mind me asking? Did you arrange collection once repaired? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luxluc Posted March 26, 2016 Author Share Posted March 26, 2016 How much was the postage if you don't mind me asking? Did you arrange collection once repaired? I organised transportation twice myself. It was 900 EUR / £700 for both trips together. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Westy Posted March 26, 2016 Share Posted March 26, 2016 So looking to be around £3500 all in for stage 3 inc shipping. Jeez. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hitbox Junkie Posted March 26, 2016 Share Posted March 26, 2016 So looking to be around £3500 all in for stage 3 inc shipping. Jeez. Still better than a brand new box though. It's half the price and I take it that it comes back as good as new if not better? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luxluc Posted April 1, 2016 Author Share Posted April 1, 2016 I have my Supra back at home ; it has been off since October last year. The Jacks Stage 3 V160 shifts very nice. Shifting during cruising is not really different than before ; I have the impression that under boost, the gear changes are more precise and more direct. As the Supra has been standing still during 5 months, I drove easily this morning. At higher revs (I was never above 4.5k today), it felt like the box was eager to hit that gear in. Lee has a brand new V161 at his, plus my Supra will go to SRD on Monday ; I suggested to Lee to compare both boxes back to back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luxluc Posted April 6, 2016 Author Share Posted April 6, 2016 The first thing I did when arriving at SRD was giving the Supra a good wash Thanks Jake and James - - - Updated - - - We then unloaded the Supra with the parts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
