    Trd Clocks

    its not, just needs some faffing about. theres still one set of the TRD clocks on Yahoo Japan I bought a set for my car for 350 quid about 6 months ago... fraudster he never sent them :(
  2. The 280T is a very mildly tuned but expensive altezza. There are plenty of MR2's with 500 wheel (not crank) horse around... thats with the same block and crank but with an inferior head... how much headroom do you want lol Those MR2's with 500 BHP are the turbo ones they have 3S GTE unit a different engine to the TOMs 280.. It's the same block though! With aftermarket rods and pistons the beams 3SGE has as much potential turbocharged as any of the 3S's. You can use aftermarket forged rods from the GTE but you need really dished pistons to get the compression ratio down. They didn't make a GTE equivalent of the beams GE but if you compare all the generations of GE and GTE the internal differences is always pistons, rods, injectors and cams.
  3. Hi if anyone has a standard airbox from a manual I am after one msg me!

  5. Check all your wheel sensors are ok... they need to be flush into the little holes or there will be problems. The error codes your getting are all 4 of the wheel sensors which is impossible unless you have disconnected them and driven the car. This link will tell you all you need to know: http://toyotaownersclub.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=47053 Note it will not reset itself you need to pump the brakes: "To clear fault codes, leave the jumper in place between terminals Tc and E1 with the key on, then pump the brake pedal eight or more times in three seconds or less. When codes are erased, the ABS light should flash two times per second." Nathan
  6. I asked him if for a price for the drivers floor mat and he only wants to sell them as a set and won't give me a price and it going to put it on ebay... ffs.
  7. Build the 3SGE up... forged rods and lower comp pistons, 800cc injectors, upgraded fuel pump, ECU and a GT30 should get your 400+ wheel HP and not ruin the balance of the car.... which would be a shame considering how much you have spent on handling mods! There is loads of info on built 3S's on the MR2 forum www.mr2oc.com. By the way if you ever have an accident and decide to part it out let me know hahhaa! Nathan P.S. my car was already white when I bought it... white is by far the toughest colour for altezza's thats for sure!
  8. FYI they are the same coil packs that are in the 1G-FE 6 cylinder found in the IS200. If you ever want to check this out goto this site and add the altezza and the european IS200 as my cars then you can switch between them from the pull down and compart part numbers. http://www.toyodiy.com/parts/
  9. Hello, Has anyone found a place that sells IS200 keys without the remote or transponder??? I have an aftermarket remote and immobiliser with the oem stuff removed and disabled. I'm looking for just a plain IS200 key without the electronics. There are loads of keys on ebay but all have remotes! Nathan
  10. Better to get some wider wheels if your doing it purely for cosmetic reasons... spacers are for inner clearance. Personally I woudlnt let spacers anywhere near my car they are dodgy especially without longer studs. Yes it may work but I know not one but two! people that have had wheels come off at speed due to spacers no thanks.
  11. I have a full set with the original Bridgestone Potenza's on that have only done about 7K miles I wish you had said that the other day I just bought a set off ebay!
  12. I emailed a few suppliers and found one in HK that makes a FRP knockoffs of the legana bumper for under 150 pounds for a single item. Since to ship one would be rather expensive and to ship many probably wouldn't be that much more I thought I would post on here and see if anyone is interested in a group buy. They are unpainted FRP without the lights (can get from toyoxus or hella copies) and there would be some tax ontop. Attached is a photo they sent me sorry non-goldies I can't be bothered posting it on photobucket atm hehe. *edit* whoops I just noticed I've spelt gauging wrong in the title but can't change it nevermind
  13. Hello, I'm looking at putting a set of the standard 17" IS250 wheels on my altezza. What are the wheel widths that they came in? They appear to be staggered judging by the offsets. Nathan
  14. Anyone know if 17x8 +53 offset will work on the IS200?? What is the inner clearance like with the stock wheels? According to wheel offset calculator 17x8+53 vs 17x7+45 its 21mm less clearance on the inside and extend an extra 5mm. http://www.1010tires.com/WheelOffsetCalculator.asp
