Yep,
Me too......

Oh Yes,yes ,yes,yes,yes

that means im up for this one

GRiM, id be intrested in the supra fit one, but if it does............and this includes fitting the IS300 it will not fit the is200,

the is200 is a screw in type same as is fitted to the LS models(V8)

Valid point Mat,

As you know the Supra was available with a number of different engine types, therefore the oil cap may be different, depending on which model of engine used.

The description on these is as follows:-

[quote][list]Brand New In Box TRD Oil Cap

Polished Billet Aluminum
This Oil Cap Fits All TOYOTA Vehicles That Uses [b]Screw Type[/b]
FITS TOYOTA SUPRA - CELICA - MR2 - RAV4 - IS200 - CAMRY - COROLLA - ECHO - SOLARA - MATRIX
Easy Installation, No Tools Required
Retail Price: $80.00 + TAX !!!
READY TO SHIP
[/list][/quote]


I added the [b]BOLD[/b] on Screw Type

However, I'll clarify with the supplier.

strange the 2jz ge and gte engines use the push turn type, the only cars with the screw type are the is200 and the V8 engines.

anyway after clarification by the Group Buy meister i think everyone will be pleased with there order

Me thinks this could all end in tears before its started

im in if it fits

I know the IS200 uses a screw type.

Hence my reason for chasing this supplier.

However, just to be sure, I [b]WILL[/b] buy [b]One[/b] sample.

If it disney fit my car, then at least Mat will be happy, as he can have it.

But the key wording here is [b]Screw Type*[/b], so I have faith.

I will also ask if they can supply the push & twist type, so perhaps everybody will be happy.



[i]*No smutty jokes please that includes you Mat (wildrnes)[/i]

Count me in toooooooooooo

If it fits... it better fit...

Stick me down for one as well Gord.

Chees
Nige

yes please me too.

One for me please Gord.

Me too for my Altezza if it fits...

I can't believe all you guys are contemplating spending £45+........on an OIL CAP when there are millions of shoddy bathrooms all over the world like mine that need replacing. How about some donations towards my TAP (Toyota Applied Plumbing) and new bog. Let's face it, £45 big ones for a piece of aluminium that spends 98.342% of the time hidden in the dark under the bonnet is maybe a bit OTT!

Oh well, spose it's your money so you spend it how you want to. I think I must be getting old!

I thought that as well. But there are some members who have their bonnets open at most meets, and I must say that it does look good especially with additional mods (ie Supercharger)

yeah - true.

thats why I'm not joining this group buy - the only thing under my bonnet is an engine bay that has never been cleaned since new

OK,

I've got some good news, and I've got some good news....

The good news is, one of these little beauties is on it's way to me.

And the good news is, it's even cheaper than I thought!!!





Now let's hope customs don't stick their noses in!!

how much cheaper than you thought???? Let us in on it!

Well, as I've had to fork out and buy one up front, I'm not able to get it a the discounted price you guys are going to get it for.

I should have it for tomorrow, then I'll confirm if it fits the IS200 and , how much you lucky ones will be paying.

It was a straight forward replacement.

Roughly, when can we expect to have them Gord ?????

Well, there was a delay while I checked they fitted ok, and I am aware JAE is around the corner..

Without the delay you'd have had them by now.

The order has been placed with the supplier, and I'm awaiting delivery details etc.

But, I ordered mine on 4th of July, and got it on the 11th.

So 1 week to 10 days.

Payment details will be PM'd shortly.

If you want to get an idea what it looks like more zoomed out, then just stand further back from your monitor...




[quote name='Bazza' date='Posted on Jul 15 2003, 09:31 PM']what about the radiator caps any luck on them ??[/quote]

Different supplier, so no details yet.

Will probably be seperate buy, but will keep you informed...

pppffffffffffffffffffff hehe

so Gordon, would i be right in making the assumption that your current supplier cannot get the supra type cap, and therefore i shall be bloomin lucky to get one b4 JAE

Matt, did you try Takakaira?

i have my own supplier for TRD stuff..........i wouldnt get it from Takakaira it would take to long

i just wanted to help out the group buy.....making the overall cost lower so you guys can get the BLING BLING you want

cool Matt, maybe we can do group buys with your suppiler? hehe

sorry.

thats not possible, my supplier is in motorsport and deals direct with TRD japan

Lol, is ok Matt, JK.....

Erm....

This item costs $92 not including shipping on takakaira.com ($92 = £57.22). Don't do discount.

And costs £82.19 excluding postage from TRD supplier in the UK.
Offered me 10% off...

This GB is for a brand spanking new TRD Oil cap, tested by me, for £40 all in, delivered to your door...

You want to talk TRD, you come talk to me....

These should be here soon shouldn't they?

Wonder if when tight they will line up nicely with the front of the car - wording wise that is!?

Doubt it very much!

How do we go about payment?

Sorry jaybo (and Mat), still looking...

I know TRD make them.
[img]http://www.toyota-trd.com/en/strt/img/eg_oil1.jpg[/img]

I even know the TRD part no (12180-SP020), but I ain't found no (cheap) supplier for them yet.

But GRiM don't give up THAT easy..

I've got three orders for them when I do.

In the meantime, all those looking for the IS200 type, payment details will be PM'd shortly....

have these dissappeared into a black hole or something? Maybe someone has knocked off the lorry carrying them!

I read about all these mods and bits etc and want them - can't stand the waiting - maybe I should chop my IS in for a new one with kit? Don't like the cheapened dash though!
