    hehe cheers, yeah i had my eye on this for the last 4 weeks actually (before the vp was smashed) and regardless of the vp i probbly woulda still picked it up...

    im gonna get me a auto v6 + LPG sometime in the next few months, the supra will never see peak hour traffic, i dont think i could drive it in that traffic,

    i picked it up for $2500, well yeah clutch has to be worth tons :P it feels REALLY deep, hydraullic aswell, you'll see me with 1 tanked left leg and a skinny right leg from the clutch...lol

    stop wasting your time with fiddly things that arent the problem, if the problem was with the map it would of thrown an innacurate reading when it was diagnosed and it would be playing up all the time not just at startup.

    i think you'll find 440cc injectors mate, still big! i got a 1UZ AFM sitting round too. and the heads getting crack tested and decked dead flat.. i plan to throw around 15-18psi at this motor

    Just ordered a Arp head stud kit, Cometic Multi layered steel (1.2mm) headgasket

    and im ordering Tokico Illumina II's all round (Aftermarket Electronic suspension for my supra) fairly soon



    yeah airstrike its mainly the front guards, i like the yellow ones front bumper better, i want to fit one to mine i think it was a MA70, where the white one is a MA71

    ive got all the money ive just been finishing up exams for my course (last of them ever!) soo now i can get stuck into it! the VP has gone to its new home and stopped hogging my carport!

    What turbo upgrade have you got planned? 500hp about your goal?
