JAE 7-8-9 September 2012 Payment Deadline 2 days and counting 11/7/12
Bluebear replied to ro55ifumi's topic in Show Archives
Sent payment! -
Do you have the drivers side mirror glass and the backing to it that attaches to the mirror motor?

Well, gearbox will hopefully be on over the weekend, and from there it's literally exhaust, bumper support bar on and bumper on, sort out the mess I've made of the interior, fit brakes and fill up with brake fluid, get hold of a rear foglight then get it MOTed tbh. And then deal with anything (if any, fingers crossed) that the MOT throws up!

I have the Ogura ORC309D. Apparently there seems to be a version of the 309 that you can use a standard Toyota release bearing with, obviously not this one It may even be the Blitz Active clutch that you can use it with (essentially a rebranded ORC309)

Charlotte's GT Advance- Massive overdue update.
Bluebear replied to funny onion's topic in EP80/EP82 Progress Blogs
That Recaro is delicious! May have to end up getting a different seat for mine too. Even if I haven't driven it yet, I can still tell i'd like the seat a little further back, so will probs tackle that when it comes to fabbing up some rails. -
Found what the problem was, the standard release bearing didn't reach the clutch face £117 smackers later, and I have a brand new Ogura release bearing and sleeve from the land of the rising sun, which will extend the reach and make contact with the clutch. Hopefully get the gearbox back on this weekend, and then once that's done, I can get cracking with doing everything else, which is not a lot to be honest (Until MOT time anyway....) Does anyone know where to get spare exhuast gaskets for the Japspeed full system? Or would I be able to cut my own out of a sheet or something?

Since when did you do all of this!? Livesports lip, duck spoiler, whaaaatt! Brilliant to see how it's moved along, any more plans for her in the near future? Also, optional door pods ftw! The mesh on mine seem to be a bit squashed in, and need repraying black at some point.

Josheyboy's GT 14/07/12 Farewell :(
Bluebear replied to Josh@TunerLifestyle's topic in EP80/EP82 Progress Blogs
Looks mega mate, what wheels are those? Really beefs up the look for some reason! Look very similar to Lew777's? Edit: Just had a quick flick back of some pages, I'm well behind lol. Love the QR code, looks sweet, makes a nice feature. Probably have to be dead on at the right angle to scan it though? -
It's all very much a case of two steps forward, one back. Filled up the clutch fluid yesterday, bled through ok, to find that the pedal has fuck all resistance in it for half the travel and then its like hitting a brick wall. Looking at the slave cylinder, it seems that something is wrong with the fork inside the box, because its much further out than it should be. Gearbox off job then, gutted. Is this an understandable occurance if I fitted an ORC309? Was there something I should have done to adjust for the clutch kit?

Well, had her ready to start the engine running last night! Had it cranking over a while on the starter to get oil around the engine, and fuel hose disconnected to get the old stuff out. Only nothing came out. 'Well', we decided, 'it obviously needs some more in.' I was about to pour a full jerry can down the spout, until Dad told me to hang on, and crawled under the car. Lo and behold, the filler hose was popped off the tank, and the tank was bone dry, so someones had off with whatever was in there. We reckon either the previous owner did it, or it was siphoned by some scrote while it was dow

Brilliant spot! How many pitches did we get last year?
-
I never put my name down because of this fact. Same as Shorty, knew that I wouldn't be able to make it. Gutted about it though, as Dave was a real asset to the whole Starlet community, and did a lot to raise the profile of them with their project cars. I am interested in getting a sticker however, where were those gotten from?

How good is the quality then of the Depos? -
Bumper support bar and new door window rubber 'scrapers' gotten from Toyota. The seals will help now, the car hadn't had any on for the past 5 years (before I had gotten hold of it). Bottom of doors are in surprisingly good nick considering, only one drainhole was bunged up with crap, soon soved that problem with a high pressure hose haha. Just left the car for a few days to air out before putting doorcards back on. Front bumper bar test fitting was going alright until we realised there was an intercooler in the way of the middle bracket fitting to the centre stay. Whoops. Probs just gonna ru
