  1. Thanks Stevie & Conalex, yep just in time for the summer Yeah was a luvvy that did it, hope he suffocates on his own puke the drunken bum!! Oooooh maybe that was a bit harsh Nah f*ck it, die you old bastard!!!
  2. Bloody hell how olds this Yeah got the car back, fortunatly it didn't sustain any structural damage, they did a great jo fixing it up. Considering the impact the car sustained, I can safely say Supras' are built like shithouses The cost was around £5000 for repairs and £2000 for car hire. The process to get the car back did piss me off though as it took several months, this was mainly due to the car being an import and their claim they had to get Jap parts, which was a passenger door. May have had something to do with my folding mirrors. Happy now though
  3. To be honest mate I didn't have the time to shop around, the front pads were running low and I had a weekend off to fit them, so needed em fast Added that bookmark thanks, might be after some discs soon.
  4. £124 Front and Back, this is without shims, they cost an extra £27.
  5. Seems Toyota have changed there part numbers, the above T04465-14390 is now the new number for front pads.
  6. Thanks mate. I thought as much, they can never get it right
  7. I think Toyota have made a mistake. Front T04465-14390 Rear T0446614040 These are for a Turbo with large brakes (UK spec or later Jap) according to local dealer. Been checking part numbers on the net and fronts above look wrong, I have a feeling they are for a Non-Turbo or small brakes??? Anyway if someone has access to the codes would be most appreciated, as I've paid for these
  8. Heat is obviously a bad thing. All I know is my Blitz induction increases my boost by 2psi, so it's staying on If you are sticking with stock it might be an idea to use a TRD air filter in the stock box, as they claim in flows more air than the stock filter.
  9. That is cheap, I paid £120 for one. See one on e-bay for £85 but missed that. Whats the UK Denso price? £255?
  10. Yeah ear to ear Just renewed my membership here tonight, so I'll keep an eye on the meets if any are happening our way.
  11. You fitted this yet mate? I can lend a hand, but doubt you'd need it. Fitted a Walbro on Sunday, easy to do, only arsing about was with the wiring loom, but if you get the UK pump you won't have that problem.
  12. Cheers Dave, yeah they have done a good job. I'll take your advice and get someone to look at it, be very suprised if it is the gearbox after reading about how sturdy they are. Hopefully it's the clutch then. Catch up with you later mate, and yeah arrange a beer soon
  13. No only coming down from 3rd to 2nd. A while back I did have a slipping clutch due to the power I was running (I guess) I fitting a restrictor ring and the slipping stopped. So you think it maybe clutch related?
  14. Just had the car returned after 2 months away getting fix after an accident, problem is I now have a noisy gearbox. Basically what happens is when coming down in gears from 3rd to 2nd the gear stick vibrates and makes a noise, which sounds like its at the rear of the car. Now this only happens from 3rd to 2nd at high/mid revs around 4000 revs, doesn't happen in any other gear and it's only on the downshift. At low revs it doesn't happen either. You can floor it in 1st through to 2nd hit 6000 revs then lay off and no vibration or noise, only happens coming down from 3rd to 2nd. Other than that the gearbox and car drive fine. Annoying thing is the gearbox had no problems when I handed it over or before the accident Any ideas?
