Blue Icarian Wings

Fitted the damn things! To be brief the rev counter is fine, as is the speedo, I know the fuel is off, hope it settles so I can readjust it before I run out of petrol,..... Tried making custom faces, but the rev needle caught so couldn't move freely enough, oh well A small victory overall, just need to adjust that petrol needle Also I swapped over the speedo mechanism from the old clocks so no need to disassemble the mechanism to alter milage, so,...... Quick guide to SR clocks fitting 1. Grab Miracle's wiring guide, and SR clocks 2. Check the wiring colours matches 2a. It does, goto 4 2

I'm sure you deserve it thou Mmmmmmmmm chocies

The old covers that came with them were on photopaper You want something that won't fade, and can cope with a bit of damp (condensation on those cold winter mornings), is thin enough to let the light through, but stiff enough it won't go all flappy, photopaper isn't perfect but it's nearish. Watchout printing them out, you'll need to do them at 100% and I'm sure whatever you use will be 'helpful' ;) and resize them to fit the page. The g/f is having a go at the moment, it she gets anywhere I'll post the results up

After bullying the scanner to behave and a small go in Photoshop the pics are now at 100% lifesize (I think not printed them out to test). Simply print them out as a template or draw over them in Photoshop, I've scanned the backs to so you can have a look at them. You can see the square holes in fuel/temp for the auto lights, and on the rev counter the shape that is cut out for the boost lights. They only have a slight hit of blue, but they scanned up really 'glow in the dark blue' must be something in the material/ink to make it glow better. You don't really need the backs but if you dec

£40 when I got em, they were in my car, now in the missus, I think their good! My head unit the cheapest JVC there, had flames on it (why I bought it! ;) ) still in my car, plays mp3 CD's and has a sub pre-out good if you want to expand later, I've no probs with it, or complaints about it

Look in the part number section, I've a thread there with part numbers and prices, this was also asked a few days ago, does nobody bother to look/use the search function? Me, dunno where I've left them ;)

Looks good, how easy were the seats to fit? I think it mentions it in the car manual, but yeah never seen one ;)

You could use those discs as anchors, never mind brakes!

Would also like to know where to put my money

Looks good ;)

I'll forgive you then ;)

Fuck JDM, that car, those wheels, it rocks

Possible though, as cars for a while now have been built by machines, and therefore CAN be that precise with stuff like that More likely they feed in a middle voltage and slap the needles on, if only I knew the range of values they worked with I could do the calibration myself, anybody around here happen to know the electrical specs for the SR cluster?! No worries mate, but I'm sure the swap method should work for you. Also the cheapest way that doesn't affect quality may be the answear I had to remove the needles to get the custom faces off. The temp does go down on it's own, like the rev

Not meaning to sound arsey, but there completely different the OEM, is a filament bulb it acts as a resistor limits the voltage/current across it, too much voltage/current and it blows like a fuse, LEDs have a similar approach to electricity, as crack-heads have to white powder They take whatever they can get, even if it's too much, they really need a resistor to limit there intake, the LED bulb I got with my 2nd SR cluster had 2 mini resisitors built in Check out this link out to get a better idea (also most of the above was pulled out of my rear so might not be 100% accurate ) Good luck

You look around for light-weight noise deadening material, if you really wanted to keep the weight down

Or we ever get a plasma dial group buy together, I'll do both sets at the weekend

Sparky you should go here Also got a quote for the bumper painted today 237.89 + Vat Was in a rush and didn't have the unpainted numbers, so didn't ask, will try again with them (perhaps ask around on TGTT a bit more or make the hour trek to Manchester scrapyards)

My first thought, used my old clocks to check where the temp needle sat, plugged in the SR clocks, waited as long as it took the old clocks to settle and dropped the needle back at the correct place (engine was on a bit before so the needle would lift, but swapping was done with engine off to avoid temps raising, and quickly to avoid temp drop), but left for ten mins it raised to match the fuel, so I unplugged, needle off, left the gauge to settle to it's lowest natural position, stick needle back on same behaviour Run my car for 10 secs, remove plugs, drop them into the new SR clocks, turn e

From a PM to Nanglebadger,...... Easiest option, fast drill in the back wind it back An option that I didn't think of was just swapping over the dials (well I did but the faces/needle are different so I didn't bother, but have since realised I could just use the existing speedo mechanism with the sr faces, but not sure if the electrics would have the same connections) What I did was fiddy and took ages(if have an e-mail addy send it to me, and I'll toss you a zip with all the pics I took) -Get a pot for screws and such! -Take off the plastic covers at the front (the clear cover and binn

Welcome, seats look nice

There's a post in the part no's section says £120 unpainted (by the Danish guy I think)

Had the time this weekend to get the SR clocks in the green car. Re-clocked the SR clocks to match milage, take out the old ones, rewire, put the new ones in. The temp needle keeps raising until it matches the fuel needle (3/4 full), the rev counter goes to 2k, BEFORE the engine starts. Acts normal when turned on, but 'idles' at 4k. Luckily still have the non-SR clocks from my car, tried them and they worked fine, so the re-wiring was fine Tried the SR clocks in my car, same behaviour these SR clocks must be buggered, and as I've had them a good while and (not got round to fitting them for

Sounds good, well except theres no Jap breakers near me, have to trek off to Manchester (and after petrol and time spent, a new part may be better value, I'll get a quote for just the bumper monday, unless the weather is nice again so I rush home and forget ) The arch liners, did old ones fit, actually do the N/A's have them, had a quick look and don't think they do (or there not as big as I think they are ) Thanks

Is that the e-bay cup holder? did it install/fit ok? Strut looks fine to me

Morning!
