On Sunday, Garage Whifbitz attended the MKIVsupra.net Supra dyno day at SRR, as we needed to check out the current performance of the cars and we also get a chance to catch up with some fellow mkiv supra owners.  Back in July we’d seen 602HP/515lbft @1.4bar but we had a boost leak so couldn’t hold more […]

We just had time to fit  a Tyresure system before the final round of Time Attack. Still have some setup/testing to do with this but it was handy at Snetterton in checking pressures were ok whilst I was out on track – the back straight gives you a few seconds to have a look at […]

[singlepic id=69 w=320 h=240 float=none] Well, the mad rush to get my car rebuilt in time for the last round paid off. We managed a team 1-3 finish for the round and an class finish overall of 1-2! Awsome result for the team and everyone involved. Full race report here. A huge thanks to everyone, the […]

[singlepic id=59 w=320 h=240 float=none] The boys got it started at 4pm today, all checks out ok, so it was off to get it mapped. Met our mapper about 50 miles from the garage, and out we went for a few runs to check all is ok. Ran perfect, no problems and according to Ryan is pulling […]

Picked up the head this evening. Daz has now built the bottom end up, so head has to be fitted and a few bits checked before we can get the engine in. Head has had a lot of valve work done to it so cams may need to be shimmed before we go any further. […]

Following on from the engine trauma I’ve ben promoted to chief engine part cleaner. As the engine is being completely stripped and rebuilt I’ve been tasked with cleaning all the parts that are going back in…. Head and block work is on-going, hoping to have this back in a couple of days. I’ve also got some new […]

Last time the car was in for a quick check over and a change of the plugs. Well unfortunately that turned into a bit more. We thought we’d do a quick leak down and compression test, results were not good. It showed up piston ring and head gasket leakages. So decided to do a quick (!) refresh, now its […]

[singlepic id=62 w=320 h=240 float=none] A deal has recently been made with Nitron, who produce race and fast road suspension systems, so we finally got round to getting it fitted.

[singlepic id=43 w=320 h=240 float=none] Whilst at the Dyno I had a chance to get a bit ‘Phil Bailey’ and took a couple of arty snaps…

[singlepic id=37 w=320 h=240 float=none] Well its been a while since anything serious happened to mine, so thought it was about time for some changes…. We were recently given the opportunity to change ECU’s on both Paul’s and my cars… Paul is running an AEM and I was using an Apexi Power FC… I say […]

Manged to knockup a heat shield for the air filter. It’s been on the cards for a while, so decided to finally sort it out. [singlepic id=33 w=320 h=240 float=none]

Whifbitz Supra at Time Attack Brands Hatch 2009, fastest lap of 53:962. Taking 2nd in RWD class and 4th overall in Club Class.

They’ve just fitted the new 3″ version of the Whifbitz exhaust to my car, so its now 104db –  just about track day/time attack friendly. [singlepic id=4 w=320 h=240 float=none]

Here’s my fastest RWD class winning lap of Silverstone Time Attack 2009. Now running a GT4094R hybrid turbo, 750bhp estimated power.

Garage Whifbitz have just received the new batch of their own exhausts, so I thought I’d  kindly try one out for them! [singlepic id=45 w=320 h=240 float=none]

We found this rather large crack in one of Steve’s front disc on Tuesday, so had to express a set of new pads over from the US which arrived yesterday morning along with a new pair of AP discs from AP Racing, just in time for Knockhill this weekend! [singlepic id=13 w=320 h=240 float=none] They’ve […]

Here’s a short video of me (Paul Whiffin) and Steve Linton testing our Time Attack Supras at Oulton Park, enjoy. www.garagewhifbitz.co.uk

Garage Whifbitz Supra at Time Attack Oulton Park. Enjoy.

Since Oulton we’ve fitted a heated front windscreen, just in time for knockhill! – this will help with misting problems since I haven’t got any form of heating/demisting in the car now. I’ve even removed the blower fan I had. [singlepic id=8 w=320 h=240 float=none] There were also plans to fit one of the new […]

Testing and race at Oulton was awesome, the car performed faultlessly for both days and it gave me a chance to use the Racepak dash on track for the first time. It’s an excellent piece of kit, very readable, clear and as you can modify the display you can have what ever you want displayed. […]

A quick update, dash is now finally done… [singlepic id=16 w=320 h=240 float=none]
