    Respray

    I'm having my passenger door and two front wings fitted this week, and was just wondering, how much would it cost to have them resprayed in standard Toyota Black? Ballpark figure is okay - just a little worried that it'll cost me a LOT of money. Some paintjobs i've heard of here cost upwards of...

    Note to the Mods....

    Something seriously wierd is going on here. The time display is all wrong in the columns and new posts in threads dont appear at all - i've tried making threads in OT and General Discussion and nothing works, although the threads exist, they're not showing up in the lists. Is something wrong...

    Anyone in Phoenix able to get hold of an engine...

    ...for an '89 Ford Econoline 150 van? Friend of mine in Phoenix has a van thats running on like 4-cyls, the engine is pretty much at the end of its life. He's been quoted by Napa more than $4000 to supply and fit a new engine - and that, for me, is rediculous - he could buy a new van for that...

    Just got in an accident - the irony of it all...

    Yesterday, i posted about how rare my supra was in the UK, and now, i've been in an accident. Thankfully not serious, but enough to put me in a bad mood. I was driving back through Wood Green this evening, and its usual chaos, i was sat in my lane waiting for the traffic in front of me to...

    How do you spend YOUR paycheck?

    I just got my first paycheck after having worked my ARSE off all month. £1200 exactly. Although it got paid into an overdrawn account, i was still left with £1085 in the bank.... It sucks that the moment you get your money, you spend it...I for one can't save for anything - i'm useless at it...

    Wow - My Supra is Rarer than i thought...

    As i was browsing the UK MK3 Forums, i came across a table that illustrates how many Mk3's were ever imported to the UK (4031). Mine is an '88 model, and i've discovered that i'm one of only 141 owners of '88 N/A's left in the UK (that are on the road at any rate). In the whole of the UK though...

    1G and 7M similarities?

    Are there any similarities between the two engines? I know theres a capacity difference (2.0 and 3.0 respectively), but for the overall design of them, can anything be swapped over? Mainly curious to see if its possible to use the 1G-GTE's Twin Turbo setup on a 7M...

    How much do you pay for fuel?

    Just curious as to what people are paying these days for their fuel - currently in the UK, we're seeing massive price drops on petrol and its like christmas has come early. Last month, i was paying more than £1.04 a litre for 98 Octane Unleaded, and this month, i'm paying only £0.91 a litre...

    As above really - in 1st or 2nd gear, its fine - above that and i get a vibration, feels like the clutch or driveshaft is out of balance or misaligned - i had the clutch replaced in April and its been vibrating since then - before that, even with a slipping clutch it didnt vibrate. Could it be...

    Hehehe, yes, i'm out wardriving currently, sat in my supra at 3am parked outside a random house with an unsecured wireless router so i can get my daily fix of the internet.... I have noticed though, that unless i put the laptop on the roof of the supra, theres no real space in the cabin to...

    Body Parts

    And no, before you get the wrong idea, this isnt about black market organs ;) The two front wings on my '88 really need to be replaced - some complete bastard was trying to break into the car the other day and before giving up, kicked the passenger wing at the bottom, which just disintegrated...

    Is my Supra dead?

    Okay, theres a strange and worrying problem with my supra. Yesterday, whilst cruising around at about 40/50mph, i noticed smoke/steam coming from the bonnet. Thinking it was an electrical fault or fire i stopped, opened the bonnet and the smell was like burning wiring or electronics. I didnt...
