    Mmmm - PSP's, so tempting, but it'll no doubt end up like my iPod - i bought that, played with it for 2 weeks straight, then i havent used it since. Although the black PSP for £119 is soooo tempting just as a portable video player...

    Vibration in 3rd/4th at 1800rpm to 3000rpm

    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...

    I'm guessing that the surfaces werent perfectly flat before you seated the MHG - looks like its time to get the block and head resurfaced before putting another MHG on it...you using ARP studs as well i take it?

    drilled vs slotted rotors.. or neither

    I vote grooved AND cross-drilled, but only if you're spending money on a good brand. Brembo/AP/Black Diamond are the top brands in the UK, followed by the cheaper but still okay Tar-Ox and EBC ones. Grooved and drilled dissipates any dust and gas buildup, preventing hotspots on the disc.

    Dubious Ebay Items?

    Hmm i did think that looked a little odd. then again, while i might end up losing £340, i might end up with a bargain. I'm leaning towards the 'losing money' end of the scale :D

    new after market fenders???

    Hmm - if they were a little more understated, maybe, but they look too rice for me. I'd be interested to find standard black fenders though....anyone got links? :D

    One thing the Supra is not good at....wardriving...

    Lol - budget, yes, although i just have to wait for BT to pull their finger out and come install my 8mbit internet connection at home. took them a month to get the freakin phone working :( It's not too bad wardriving, as long as, i find, you put the laptop on the roof. Not only does the laptop...

    One thing the Supra is not good at....wardriving...

    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

    Hmm okay - it appears i can indeed get those taillight lenses for you. What colour moulding set have you got and what clips does it come with? According to trademotion, the front fenders work out to about $240 or so, which is £115 - kind of okay pricing wise....anyone else able to get them cheaper?

    Timing advance?

    Just to revive this dead topic - when Darket (ed) from the UK Mk3 Forums did a once over on my car the other week, he found that the timing was set to 8 degrees, so no wonder it was running like a bag of crap and sucking down fuel at a rate of knots.... Since changing it to 12' though, fuel...

    Body Parts

    Well i can certainly look around for some, although finding parts here isnt as easy as it once was, what with the govt trying to make classic cars harder and harder to own....

    Body Parts

    On the subject of the trim - is it one of those stealership only items - and does anyone have the part numbers to hand for the whole set?

    Body Parts

    I'm in the UK - so shipping on them would be more than buying them here probably, but i'll wait for the body shop to get back to me. I need the fender trim pieces from an 89+ as well seeing as the metal in the ones i have has distorted and warped the plastic, so it looks like poo...

    Getting Hott Again

    Thermoviscous fans are problematic - and i've just bought an electric fan for mine - much less hassle. At least with Supra's you dont have to use a 36mm thin cranked spanner like i had to on my old Ford Sierra XR4x4 - that was a pain in the ass!!
