  1. Well i am now the proud owner of a Supra it has been my dream car for god knows how many years and am so happy. I was bidding on this last week but it never met it's reserve at auction, then Jurgen who is getting me the car told me that it was back up last night, i asked him to up my bid but when i checked this morning it still hadn't sold, i was gutted! but got a call from him when i was at work saying he had spoken to the owner and had managed to get him to sell it. So now just the waiting game, the spec i know so far is: 18" BBS Alloys Fmic boost gauge momo steering wheel induction kit ex
  2. Yeah but it takes between 6-8 weeks to get here mate, he is bidding on a black facelift for me tonight so fingers crossed i will win it.
  3. I wouldn't have thought so mate, it was a lad from nottingham who bought it. Well i have been down to see Jurgen at www.jm-imports.co.uk today and paid my deposit, so he is starting the search for my supra. I have told him that i want the car for jae so it only gives him a couple of weeks to find me one.
  4. Well the evo has gone, so bring on the supra
  5. Thanks a lot Phil, i have found this one in Japan that i really like but i need to sell mine first. Clicky
  6. I am in no rush to find one, i am going to see how much i get off the evo then get a loan to make it up to about 9k and have a 6 speed TT imported for me.
  7. Thought i would post some pics up from today, the evo is up for sale now as my insurance renewal was stupid for a car that is used for 2 days a week if lucky. I am gutted but on the bright side i am finally going to get my TT supra don't ask me how it is cheaper for me to insure a supra as i don't know lol
  8. Yeah it shifts lol, i am getting used to the power already so am going to have to get more. I will have some new pics this weekend after the RSCS.
  9. Yes it is running sweet phil, just had it on the rollers today and it made 329bhp and 296lbs/ft so was well happy. Got an apexi safc 2 tonight so just need my fpr and electronic boost controller and it should be able to get about 350bhp
  10. Went to change the spark plugs today ready for next weeks dyno session and found a nice suprise, a set of HKS Spark plugs judging by the colour of the plugs the car is over fueling a bit, but that is better than running lean. So i cleaned them up and put them back in.
  11. Is that the one you mean? i am not really sure what it will sound like on mine, i just liked the look of it ha ha.
  12. Cheers sparky but i have just got a cheap autogauge on for now as there are other things i need to spend money on first. Haven't really done much to the car for a while, when bish wired up my alarm i removed the clock and fitted the turbo timer in it's place. This left a big hole around the timer so the other night me and my dad made a plate to cover the hole using some mdf and plywood, Quiet happy with the result and it looks 100% better than the cardboard i was using to hold it in place lol. I also fitted a cheap boost gauge just to find out what pressure it was running, and my Harmon Kardon
  13. Was at the JDM Allstars all weekend in newcastle, had a really good weekend and the level of competition was amazing. The dutch drivers were simply awsome, Here are a few of the 400+ pics taken lol.
  14. Well it has been a busy day today dropped the oil and put in my royal purple, it was quiet funny when i started topping up the oil and realised that it was actually purple oil and not just the name lol. Fitted a cheap boost gauge until i can afford some defi's haven't tried it yet as i have been washing the car for tomorrow as it is going on the japnortheast stand at round 1 of JDM allstars.
  15. Thanks mate, i have no idea what the mpg is as it is only a weekend toy. To be honest if you are worried about fuel don't buy one lol i still put about £40 a week in and it is only used on weekends. Just bought some Royal Purple for when i do the oil change.
  16. Cheers mate, i have just ordered a Tial 50mm BOV from Reyland. Should be here friday so i will have fun trying to get some ally pipe to make it fit.
  17. Well i have finally had time to fit the new brakes and found out why they were shit, the pistons were seazed in both calipers and the whole sliding assembly was siezed on the passanger side. Stripped them down and got rid of all the rust and greased all the pistons. It looks to have had possibly cusco or project mu pads on it all of which have loads of meat on them so they will do for spares. Before After Braided lines
  18. Have a look to see if you have an uprated actuator mate, or an uprated ECU because i wouldn't have thought you would be hitting 1.1 bar with just the mods you have stated.
  19. Well the rest of my parts arrived for my brakes today so i will get it all fitted on saturday. 3G 10 Groove discs, Ferodo racing pads, HEL Braided brake lines, ATF Super blue racing brake fluid. Hopefully this should sort out the braking side of things.
  20. Well my HEL braided lines arrived today and i am very impressed by them, lets hope they perform as well as they look. Also managed to get the speedo converter/delimiter fitted, and the rest of the alarm done, just need to run the 2 wires for the central locking motor and get my mate to wire it up.
  21. Wow that thing will shift, what is the total weight going to be for it? cant wait to see it finished.
  22. Ah ok mate cheers, i was thinking of the 6 one because my mate has a spare one and 550cc injectors lying around that he is not using. Are the 7 ones just plug and play do you know or will i have to get some sort of wiring harness? i have been down to mitsubish today to see if there are any recall notifications on my car, should find out next week.
  23. That is the standard colour for the rocker mate, that white stripe is some sort of heat barrier lol, plans are to give it a good bit of tlc and then get an evo 6 ecu and injectors and get it mapped.
