I had TT BPU plugs on before which worked fine but are a lot colder. Come to think of it I've had a flat spot issue recently... I might pop the old ones back in and see if thats the problem...

 

BTW I've now double decatted the supra and and have a stock TT silencer and TT nur spec s. Surprisingly its still very quiet on idle but has a nice V6 sounding roar like the 350's - love it. No way she will pass the MOT now (I kept the 2nd cat for this) - she stinks to high heaven like the singles now :p

 

When you getting your manifold Hoff?

I dunno I quite like to get blown:sly: May as well sell the 2nd cat now:) Look out for new pics soon too. Fitting new wheels, bumper and seats, and either some Eibach springs or some super streets:eyebrows:

Im looking at some Cobra Misanos. I may go for the universal runners but as you say they may need modding. Should just be a case of some new holes though hopefully. At about £250 for a set of Brides thats just a bit too much for me to spend on them.

They are nice and I fit nicely into them:D My girlfriends bro is a mechanic specialising in Jap motors like supes and skylines. He's put no end of 34 GTR seats in his 180's and his silvia, which all needed some modifying, so I'll hand them over to him and demand perfection:)

They are similar in performance. Some say stick with Denso as denso parts were use on the supra but some say use NGK because they're the leader (in some people minds) of sparkplug manufacturing. Up to you.... both are good.

I did, had a rather large bill from CW too! He liked the condition of my car, but a new radiator was necessary - and I had to buy fluids and a couple of parts from him.. I'll make sure I have everything next time! Paid a visit to London as well, and popped to a Japmids meet in Leicester (picked up some stock 17"s from Guigsy).. today I shocked myself with the amount I've spent on Petrol in the last 4 weeks (£270).

 

Whitey is looking a little naked, started stripping out the interior, and taken the rear spats off (left a nice chunk of gunk to get rid of).. changing the brake pads at the moment and then I think I'll find some poor sod to help me change the clutch! I've had loads of fun with it and it's not even had a proper drive in months! :D

I'm managing to keep myself busy, though as it keeps raining at the moment I've actually retrieved some of my interest in PCs (It's actually a little fun again). Hopefully I will not be tempted to build a car PC, I wanted to for a long time but managed to dissuade myself..

 

Are there any car meets/shows coming up in Shropshire? Pete mentioned a monthly one once or twice but usually at the last minute.

I would like to go to one of the Ironbridge meets, I fancied going for a look around there anyway. I think the first weekend of next month is clear so hopefully I can get over!

 

Just had an argument with a stuck piston, I lost. Going to find someone with more muscle to have a go for me! lol

Quite a nice place. We go to a near by pub out of town on the river which is dead nice and has good space for the cars. I think its this sunday so I will see what I cxan do:)

 

As for jumpers, most MR2 owners when the supras turn up:p

Picked up the new wheels today, they look fantastic. Ive just ordered a pair of 10mm spacers for the rears just to have it look just right and some Tein Lowering springs:eyebrows: Once my new bumper is on I'll post up some pics in supra chat. Just want the seats then:)
