Still waiting for the bodyshop so i am doubtful now. Bloody bonnet

Brunters for Jae :D Would think MI would be up for some legal action for cancelling that late unless it was all done on a handshake It may even be possible to ask RAF Cosford if it can be staged there the airfield is seperate from the camp and it stages its own airshow, the place is mahoosive

Lexus keys come in 2 lengths 50 and 55mm if i remember rightly so tbh its really not worth trimming them down for 5mm. I have provided stav with some keys he's looking at atm as a tester and hopefully he'll let me know if its fallen to pieces etc after a bit of use lol What you have to realise with the flip keys though is if you want an oem quality one you are going to have to pay for it and more than likely at a main dealer which is going to cost alot. TBH you should really get charged no more than about £10 for having a key cut you provide, £20ish for one supplied and cut and i have no idea about flips as they would not be stocked and would be special order, but i would think about £25-£30 supplied and cut for a flip or at least thats what i would charge.

I am in complete agreement, but when my beemer got keyed i got told off for putting a sign in the window asking for information and stating there would be no police involvement. Did stop any of my cars from ever getting touched again though when i lived in the street. Back on topic have you checked your policy for glass cover? not sure if its just on fully comp but if you do get it on TPFT its not classed as a claim

TBH i can see it if they leave it too long someone might jump in and create another, its not that hard to get venues what is hard is having the capital to book it.

I may be a bit touch and go now as the car will be going into the bodyshop to have some niff naff sorted out. Hopefully it will be done by then.

Thanks very much guys for the info, nice to see you back Colin have you been on holiday or something or have i not been paying attention. Hows the supra Fargo?

nope unfortunately its m-obd on the imports

Problem with mersea was it wasn't very centralised for everyone and now the uncertainty around it has led the other car clubs making their own arrangements. TBH if they don't sort it soon i can see there either being no JAE this year or a very sparsely populated one.

Just wondering if one of you fine fellows has a reference guide for setting up the Throttle position sensors. Its for a VVti aristo but i would imagine the 2jz-ge is near as dammit. Problem is its not jsut plug play and tweak they need setting up with a multimeter etc i just don't know what values i should be expecting and going striaght off the rev range doesnt work Cheers Austin

If the car industry wasn't in enough trouble this should help hammer the nails in then. As far as i am concerned all hikes in car tax, mot and insurance cause is more illegal drivers they never price people of the road they just increase the criminals. Fortunately i have an import so i don't have to go underground just yet Mind you the way this is going if you have a car thats over 1500cc soon they'll send death squads after you

If i have the car sorted by then i'll try and make it all being well

no but i did it on the mk1 and i had a look at these as i will put a leather interior in eventually but there are more pressing matters atm. Saw the same problems though its fitting them out the door jsut be patient

Its easy you jsut undo the connectors and then the bolts on the rails then get tehm out. The hardest bit of the whole job is getting them out the door without scratching anything. When i took mine out i left the plug attached so i could tilt/slide the seat to get it out then disconnected the plug at the last

the overide button is to allow you to move the auto stick without the engine being on or depressing the brake pedal to release the solenoid. the norm/pwr button is for the autobox it gives it more of an aggressive shift in ect pwr mode and hangs onto the revs more. dunno about the vents does it have a dual setting and if it does is one side activating properly? have you set it to dual and managed to set both to the same temp?

no have you not seen what the army do when they run out of toilet paper?

Are you sure its missing? Rather than a miss does it feel like the car has suddenly become "choked"

Molylolylobby what Thanks for that, going to give Mr T a call in the morning :) what chu talking about fool

Yes its jsut the anti squeals you want now and some molybdenum or copper grease ;)

You still have the jspec fronts on don't you. I bought the anti squeals from toyota they are jsut a set of thin gauge plates that clip onto the back of the pads. There are actually 2 sets that toyota do one is the plates and there is another one which i can't remember but its jsut over £100 for both sets

Search for Jspec supra brakes as well as they are the same one and give these guys an email they can get quite alot. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Toyota-MR2-Brake-Cal...A1%7C240%3A1318

get your geometry checked its more likely your toes are out than the steering wheel. I'll now await Tony flinging the cat at me as i got the wrong part of the geo to cause the steering wheel to go off centre

Is this a spoof thread or something? I always get suspicious when i see new members making bold statements on their first posts.

Seems like the season for Aristo problems . Does the smoke smell rich at all, if it does then its running rich and probably the o2 sensor needs renewing. If the turbos are getting past their best then look into the piping beyond the turbos, if it has alot of oil in it then the seals are starting to go. However saying that nothing is as it seems on these bloody things as i am chasing a fault around myself atm.

No sorry i want my flange to be screwable and a nice tight fit It is screwable, you weld the flange to the exhaust them screw the sensor into it. in all seriousness i want a direct replacement without resorting to a welding torch, its good for backwards compatibility
