Ed, he look slike jesus and works miracles like him too, but only on supra's :) Very nice guy, knows EVERYTHING about Supra's, specialises in the Mk3's, and has almost complete encyclopaedic knowledge of all things Supra. The man is a walking TSRM.

Yep - read up a few posts - UKDM 7M-GE :D I've asked around on the UK forum and apparrently, theres no O2 sensor on non-turbo's, seeing as none of the N/A's ever had a cat fitted. ECU was also apparrently 'different' in its provisions for such emissions equipment. Although i cant verify that...

Failing emissions wouldn't have something to do with the fact that the HG was just replaced, could it? Spark plugs 7 i think the dizzy were also replaced. I'd have normally thought that would have improved emissions, although i'm just throwing it out there. Also - do ALL supra's have an O2...

Heh - emissions here were never a big deal, we didnt have an overabundance of V block engines hanging around - most cars are 4-cylinder based, with the V blocks for things like Jaguars, Jensens, Bristols, TVR's etc Plus, we don't do as much mileage as you might do - average is 8000 to 12,000...

Hm - good point, lemme see if ed can PM me the emissions numbers from the ticket. They're checked at idle, and fast idle. If it fails at idle, its not a problem, but if it fails at fast idle, then it fails. By Vf, do you mean the AFM? *ninja edit* Also, it might have passed the CO level, but...

Well, no cars for the UK or EU markets had to have Catalytic converters until after August 1992. UK and EU emissions levels aren't as stringent as the US levels, for example, until July 1986, a CO level of 4.5% was the limit, from then til 1992 the limit was 3.5% and after that, it was 0.5%...

Pads were changed at the same time, although the calipers are the originals as far as i know, although the whole front suspension change might have required that the calipers be carried over from the spares car as well. The calipers are stock items - the car is pretty much a standard UKDM 7M-GE...

I'm seriously thinking of going straight to a 1JZ from my 7M-GE, Aaron, how much to ship *my* car there? :D Easier to do an RHD than an LHD? ;)

The car is with ed over 40 miles away, so i cant check, although he's a guru as far as this is concerned, i'm asking for the sake of trying to keep calm and hope to god its not going to cost me a shitload :/ The brakes that were on there have about 2000 miles on them by now - standard toyota...

Holy fucking christ! Thats even bigger than the Snail in Dr Evils build! :aigo: Good job that man! :D

Just had an update from Ed - he took the Car for an MOT, it failed on three things: Emissions too high for pre-'92 spec (3.5% CO level) Handbrake Shoes Front Brakes unbalanced - pulls to one side Now, with regards to the handbrake, well thats a simple fix. The emissions though - i am surprised...

Derk - erm, thats an internal IP address :D 192.168.xxx.xxx is assigned by your router www.whatismyip.com for your external IP address!

Um - i'm up for some Counterstrike action - i can host a server if needed.

24 volt high current battery pack - three times the coils, 1000v 1farad capacitor maybe a clip of somesort, with a rifle bolt action for loading (can't be that hard). Should be able to take out anything in front of it ;)

I got an A grade in physics and electronics at A level, so i should be able to knock one up thats at least a proper rifle. Larger magnets, bigger battery pack, larger caps, better loading mechanism... All i'd need are the plans for the circuit boards :D

The man is obviously on crack. Looks like a former junkie....all gaunt like that.

I was bored today, so i ended up on Wikipedia (as you do) and after a few links, ended up on a page about railguns, which led me to coil guns (which is what people think are railguns), which in turn led me to this: http://www.thinkbotics.com/military.htm I am *so* going to build one! :D

Random shots....well okay then, here goes... I got bored on the tube ;) Closest i've been to a Gallardo yet.... Yes i know, reckless of me to turn on my mobile phone mid flight - as we all know, phones can bring down planes.... :rolleyes: This is my friend dan. We...

If you could dude - it'd be much appreciated :)
