Re: Munters SC Restoration Thread *pic heavy*

Even if you do find the strut manufacturers details, you can't be 100% sure you are replacing with the same spring rate spring. A previous owner may well have changed these.

Re: Playstation 4 !

Re: What to do with my 2 next - sell or sort?

Yeah i dislike seeing the arches rot, but normally i just coat the crap inside and out in wd40 over the winter, and then take a week off work during easter to sort and spray them ready for summer and over the winter. I did plan this year though to sack that off and make a carbon over fender (wider r...

That looks awesome! Can't wait to see this thing in the flesh! I might have to book a holiday just to come and look... You could make alot of money from MR2 perv's Paul, charge a hobnob a look, and you'll have many hobnobs at the end.

Re: Retread tyres

i got 4k miles out of a pair of T1R's. They were grippy as hell, but at like £69 a corner every couple of months, id need a rather large salary to afford it. IMO Tyres should be a good quality. Only things touching the ground, i want a good grippy set i know isnt going to send me though a hedge........

Re: Janspeed S1?

I have a janspeed on, and i love it. I solved the problems with the nuts slackening off with loads of crush washers, but mine has had the janspeed flange where it meets the manifold cut off and replaced with a standard mk1 flange as standard toyota ones are readily available. It looks fantastic, and...

Re: need help with closest thing to stock suspension

Price of koni's and lowering springs isnt too far off getting a full BC coilover system. Ive been tempted by coilovers but really cant afford it, not matter how much of an improvement i know it would make!

Re: Mk1b aftermarket steering wheel and boss?

It should do yes. I have a dished wheel, snap off boss, and also the boss which fits onto the steering column. Only problem with this is it does position the steering wheel quite close to the driver.

Re: Hmmm

i vaguely remember seeing skyline rear lights on a mk1 and thinking wow. I do agree the supra ones look aweful. Supra's have quite a wide ar$e so can pull off a long light but the mk1 being narrower, i don think it works as well. I think silvia rear lights might work good.
