hmm,

mk3 supra 3.0 t with mk4 alloys with wider wheels, over 250 bhp bought 4 Continental sport tyres, same rubber when i sold it 4 years later, see it can be done :)

i must drive like an old man :)

sod that. i buy tyres i want em to last , and 4 months is daft.

or am i just a tight northerner :)

how come the rears eat rubber that much?

and ill give them a ring tomorow, its not called almet or some thing isit ?

Steve

na sod it , its too much messing just for 2 rear wheels, my wheels i got now have new rubber on and last time i bought tires they lasted me 5 years :) id like 10 inch rears but not that much, first priority is a refurb place, 80 miles radius of Leeds that does diamond, finding one of these places is going to be a harder challenge than finding 10 inch rears in the first place

Steve

ive been thinking about them since ive seen them tbh,

shall i bid again shant i kindo thing

i think i might have to have another think about it

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/LEXUS-GS300-SPORT-AL...1QQcmdZViewItem

full set of sport alloys for the mk1 current price 310 £ with 10 inch rears

had bid. but i think 310 is a bit much just for the rears :)

Steve

i think my sub is on its way out, getting a bit of distortion from the bass, any one got a standard one they dont want any more?

Steve

if tte have been invited , wonder if they will bring me a set of 10 inches as a good will gesture :)

anyway, i'll be there holding the gs300 bit up again,

cant see me camping this year, going in a sleeping bag and a few crates o beer :)

just to go back to the mast, you dont cut it.

heres a link to replacing the elec mast on a mk1 (if it is a mk1) :)

save yourself 30 odd quid, do it yourself, only took me 5 minutes

Steve

hmm, might have a go on my gs :)

for when i win the lottery and buy either my vette or the charger.

thing is it had 9 bids and some ones bought it ???? ;)

Steve

is there a web site or distructions on how to do this, ?.

could do with doing this myself

(160 to 170 miles to 3/4 of a tank)

Yeah, main thing is your allright, you can allways get another car

thats Leeds for ye

glad i dont have that problem of traffic, im going home to nice warm bed(thanx Fiona) whilst you lot are struggling to get to work :)

but brett, why do you have a mk2 sport when you stick to the limits?.

:):)

come on you gotta feed some speed into your ride some time?

Steve

*fellow Leeds lad*

heres instructions on how to remove it yourself,

http://www.mkiv.com/manual/manualtt/antenn...ment/index.html

easy peasy

Steve

jeesh , i stick in about 40 ish quid to 1/2 to 3/4 fill up mine, (always top it up when it gets to half ish of a tank) and i get roughly 170 to 190 miles. no idea what mine does to a full tank, never tried it ,

when i bought the car it was empty, so i put in £35.00 (normal cost to nearly fill the supra) and it half filled it, :( i thought about giving the lex back and getting my supra back :)

glad i didnt though

Steve

cant see it, its just thirsty :):)

just out of interest how much you putting in the tank a week, ?. if your getting that kind of economy, and i use the word economy lightly

Steve

12 inch int it?.

Ahh wanabee, sport owners dont you just love em :)

, hey Tony fire up msn bro

Steve

Awww tony, you feeling left out :)

nowts wrong with SE's . just not a sport

Steve

OK

update time,

took the old cluster out and put in "new" tacho and speedo needles, i can now see how fast im going and the revs, looks bloody good i can tell ye, plus looking at the old needles, you can see where there, gone

now just to test the water, if i can successfully repair these needles for the mk1 gs300 , how many of you out there have faulty needles and how much would you pay to get them repaired,

Steve

Well i finally managed to find a instrument cluster for my 300 arrived this morning all bubble wrapped up, thought this is going to be good, straight swap over .then i can get the needles repaired, BUT NOOOOO bloody wrong type aint it, i didnt know the sport and the normal one had a different cluster, speedo different, mechanical compared to analogue mileage trip, so going to swap needles over soon, lets see if i havnt totally wasted my time

but i know how they connect to the cluster and i know what they look like close up

will post pics if any ones interested,

Steve

hi, gs300 sport up here in leeds, i think the only one up here aswell, cos i dont see any more

bit far for a meet up, the main meet i would have thought is JAE in july time, thats a big meet,

come alone, lets see if we can get the ratio of is200's to the other makes a bit closer :)

Steve

that method bro is no good, "return cat by royal mail" you would never get it back :):)

and forget parcel force ,

Steve

happy parcelforce/royal mail trunker

he said it was in VERY good nick, no play in any of the bushes i was quite proud , thank *** i gave it a wash before i took it in :)

Took the 300 sport in for its mot today, and the old thing only passed :)

no probs at all. mucho happy :):)
