I don't get cars.
My son's godfather has a few Supras and Skylines.
The only one I like is the Cadbury chocolate purple coloured Endless that he has.

Think I'll stick with my beige mobeel innit.

I have a full set of n/a calipers you can have for free and a few pads and stuff with loads of meat on.
No disks though.

The calipers are in **** condition, but you could service then clean them up put new seals on them. Depends if you are good with your hands.

I just buy full sets of n/a calipers and do a basic service of the sliders and stuff, at some point you will get a seized caliper, so its good to know how to fix them.

My supra has done over 260k now, i bought it at 80k, so I know what goes wrong and what doesnt

Youd have to collect em from liverpool though, drop me a pm if you are interested..!

Yes I'm interested mate. Only an hour away I'm near leeds. I've actually just ordered some front seal kits from chris Wilson lol . On the fronts of mine i had some pads with meat and some that were shot :s i think my slides were seized as they were never that good . I've took my calipers off atm, pretty much stripped a lot of engine too e.g exhaust, inlet manifold, just sprayed rocker cover too, pretty easy to work on .

Loads left on these pads mate, they just have a little surface rust..

You can have these as well as the calipers + sliders!


Thats what happens when a slider goes obviously..

If you are in it for the long haul its worthwhile getting uk spec brakes, which are big money.

..or do as i did and get a tpms system with temperature sensors in the wheels, So you can spot the temperature rising on one particular wheel/tyre and sort it out asap

I was doing big milage in mine though, so it was useful to me..

Drop me a pm with your mobile and ill sort something out with you

So I've worked out that whip means car. But I have no idea why, that makes no sense from what I can see. Care to explain?

As for Supras they are nice looking cars and do have some decent performance in them. Just don't Fast and Furious it please.
