Sorry guys, no particular reason for posting this. Just feeling really good right now and feel like sharing.

Had a few drinks, heading out tonight for a friend's birthday, just finished exams and best of all: picking up my new car tomorrow - a '94 non turbo Supra.

Carsales pictures are terrible, but this is basically what it will look like (same kit, and no spoiler):

Only mine is bright yellow with white wheels. To be honest, I don't know if I like the kit, but mechanically the car was top notch and the body/interior was mint. Cosmetics are cheap to fix.

More pics will come, promise!

Man you finished exams already? lucky you. i still got two more to go next week. Good timing to get your car too. I reckon i may have gone the supra route if i cuold have afforded a twin turbo model at the time. I reckon you are better off sellin the UNR34L plates to someone with a 34, n get a new set of customs for your new ride?

Have fun man, enjoy the new car.

man - i still have a soft spot for supras! Looks good man.

i remember i was sooo close to buying one - and then i drove a gtst - couldnt afford a TT supra or a gtr, so went for the gtst (couldnt go back to an NA after it)

now after seeing your pic, im thinking if i should go test drive a few twin turbo supras :(

Try an NA one, they pull surprisingly hard. They're something like 130-140rwkw.

As for the kit, I didn't like it much at first either, although it is growing very quickly on me. I'm doing a hobby spray painting course with a mate of the next few months. So we plan on whacking a subtler kit on and giving it a fresh respray.

As for the plates; they only held on to the grill by those zip lock things. The previous owner only put the bar on it a month or so before I bought the car and hadn't bothered to mount the plates. One of my mates is already working on a bracket to hold the plates in place.

BTW, if you don't like the kit you should've seen the wing that it came with. Seriously, it puts Evos to shame.

      V37 Radiator removal

      By Duncan · Posted

      So, this shouldn't be such a mission, but there were a few tricks so I thought I'd post up a DIY for it. This was on a Q50 Red Sport but I doubt any other V37 model is very different (maybe just less steps for the intake heat exchanger hoses) I pulled the radiator out to flush it because the car was running hot at the track, but obviously the same steps apply for changing a radiator for any reason including an upgrade. If you are removing the radiator, you of course need to drain and refill, so have 5+ litres of blue coolant ready. You don't need to drain the intake heat exchanger to remove the radiator but depending on your plans you may need a couple of litres for that as well. You will also need something to deal with the auto transmission lines, I used 2x 8mm rubber caps on the radiator side, and a short length of 8mm pipe on the car side.....unless you can block these lines quickly you will loose AT fluid and it may be enough to hurt the transmission if you don't refill it. Other than that....lets go... "First, jack up your car". Yes really, and put it safely on stands. If you are not confident doing that you need to give this job to a mechanic

      If the forester is anything like our old 2007 GTB Liberty, I could near on run ling Long's and "rate them", as no matter what, it just hung to the road, even when abusing it in a hard launch in the wet, or throwing it at corners.

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.
