A little bit off-topic, but whereabouts have Toyota GT moved to ? I ask because they're in my neck of the woods (or at least, they were !).

Yeah that's where they were before, I wondered if that's where the new place is. The address on their website seems to be the old one still.

In that case i have no idea:closedeyes:

They have moved to Basingstoke Steve, i don't want to reveal the address for the new place yet as i don't know if James is properly giving it out until they are all moved.

They haven't properly moved yet but will be fully out of the old place by the end of the month. They are also changing their company name as they are going to start doing ALL japanese cars and ToyotaGT doesn't get the message across. I believe the company's new name will be JDM-Modified but don't quote me on that one.

Their new place is amazing, has room for about 40+ cars inside and they are sorting out links with Japan. I believe they are now going to offer alot more!!!! Servicing, tunning, parts, metal polishing etc etc. They are also going to have a large shop that will offer second hand and new products that they will be importing directly from Japan.

And they are also having a MR2 on a mezzanine level that will be made into a driving simulator Big Grin

*** Update ***

Got up to TGT to measure/check a few things on the buggy. They are going to be mega busy moving premesis and getting ready for JAE so think they may not get anything done this month, can't blame them really. However it will be back on next month and i will have more cash to fuel the work Big Grin

I have started ordering a few more bits and they are slowly turning up, first was my race tow strap. Nice and light as there is not much to it but will easily pull the buggy if i get stuck in the gravel traps Big Grin

Started looking at making up the induction pipework and location for the induction kit, Filter will be mounted in the side compartment and stick out the side of the car. This means it will be in direct air flow so should stay nice and cool Big Grin

you will be able to see the turbo in the first pic so it should be relatively short pipework which is good. Im thinking about relocating the oil filter and a oil cooler to the other vent on the side.

Also measured up a few bits on the front and im going to start looking at parts to start fixing the radiator in place and coolant pipework. Big Grin

Here is what the Fiat Chinqy rad looks like on the front, almost perfect fitment. The hoses coming off the rad will have to bend back around as they are quite close to the edge of the car but should be ok, and before anyone says the battery will be going to the rear of the car.

Thanks Steve,

Doesn't really feel like an update to me as all the pictures are of parts i already have, so nothing new. I like updating this weekly so that i can look back and see what was done when and helps motivate me. :Chair:
