Blue Icarian Wings

Afternoon

Dig out the manual, figure out where the front fog switch is, hunt around that area

Him, whatever the lowest was, the step-skirts and the snow-plough you can see the metal-work, ugh (I love the way people slap big see-through kits on but forget the little touches, like the indicators ) Gave you a ten, I don't like the look of those cars, but for 5 secs of my time in passing, what does it matter

I presumed it was for front fogs. I can't thing of anything else really

Thanks a lot guys, you made her all shy and blushy She really likes the comments It's chocolate inside! It is a starlet! As it was a bit of a rush job, the cake was still a bit warm so it crumbled when she tried to carve it into shape. Next time it'll be left to cool so that it can be made curvy at the back and slope forward at a better angle for the windscreen. The next attempt with have better timing, so should come out better She should probably have one ready for JAE if you'd like some (and come on other stands might have turbo'd big engined expensive cars, but will they have cake, eh? UKSC will rule supreme at JAE! I rest my case! ) Easy now, I got there first (although getting married is after 'get a house with a garage so I can play with more starlet bits' on my list of things to do! )

Good man, if it lights up fine without the old faces, the g/f will probably have another go

Would the TTE people still have the mold? or the plans for it? just an idea really

Landy's rock, my uncle has two, does off road with one, off road recovery with the other, the 4x4 I see are the jacked BMW and porsche's wouldn't know a country if it hit them, and they have HID's right at eye-level cunts Bad luck on that Mikey, good luck on not ramming into any though I suppose!

Hi, this is Wings' GF he thought you might appreciate some pics of his new car: So I guess the answer to that question is YES (especially as its chocolate cake...) Over the easter weekend he foolishly mentioned about me making a cake for JAE, being in somewhat of a holiday mood I said "ooh Ive never made a car cake" and then proceeded to make a tester..of course having never made one before I thought Id do it properly, so I made the Fondant Icing, the buttercream and the cake...and then whoops forgot that I was supposed to be up at 6am the next day for work...and the cake had to cool before I could decorate (it ended up being 10pm BEFORE I could decorate it). So please forgive the complete anatomic in-correctness It was dark outside Wings' had gone to bed and I was having to make it up as I went along, but for a first go I didnt think it came out too badly. At least I have learnt lots, like how yummy Marshmallow fondant is...and how much it sucks to paint using a toothpick... (tail lights are HARD to do... :/)

A printshop might be able to do it, the three dials will fit on a single sheet

Yup, clear indicators a must, look in the parts sections for a part number to get them from toyota

Paseo clock faces should fit and their white (same cluster as SR so should be fine for a conversion job too)

And LO! did the Part numbers section provide a thread, and it was a good thread for it was full of pics and part numbers You could just grab a similar looking civic splitter instead

That's what I've got, nice and quiet

I thought you were allowed a little overlap, I want something for around the mirror, the sun always seems to avoid the shades and sneak through that gap,....

I've fallen across some stuff might be of use to you I'll see if I can dig it up again The flow capability of the pipe should match the core, use mandrel bends, if you don't use larger pipes at bends to avoid decrease in air flow/speed PM'd

When you say photo paper, do you mean the stuff like from jessops, or just high qual. a4 paper. How well did the light show through? What program did you use to print them on caus mine arent the right size, the windows thing just wants to crop it..... Cheers It's labelled 'Glossy Inkjet Photo Paper' and has Stationary Box written on it, so own brand shiny stuff As the needle was sticky (in hind-sight I could of made the centre hole bigger so the needle centre cover wasn't dragging, the edges might need holding down also, to prevent the edges warping up) I just took them off so don't know how well they work light-wise (as an aside the old set they came with used Kodak photopaper, I believe they were miracle411's old clocks best ask him how well they worked in the dark) Photoshop, the g/f did them. I know she took the scans, cropped them to three separate images and printed them out using Photoshop, I remember she had to tell Photoshop to print them out an exact size to get them to work, as it was being an arse and auto resizing. I'll ask her if she can remember the sizes, but you could just measure the scan on your screen (display at 100% of course) Also I'd recommend background around the faces before you turn them white, so it's easier to know where to get them out I'm gonna put this in the thread also, as other people may have the same questions

To quote my mother 'you looked like a man' ie not very well at all! It's a sticky in How 2's and FAQ's Tips 1. Undo the top screw (soft metal, but it's a hex head so I recommend to use a socket instead of a screwdriver), then the two bottom ones (long screwdriver) this gives a bit of play so you can take off the clear cover and the plastic binnacle (as one). Bring that bit forward rotating it upside down as you take it out the hole, makes it easy to remove that bit 2. Plugs, finger on top to push the clip down wiggle them side to side (using the plug or wires) to get them out 3. Speedo cable, with your right hand reach behind, feel for a cylinder, at the end, there is a bit that can be pushed down, push it down, pull the clocks towards you 4. As 1. bring the clocks towards you, rotate up and out to get them out without a fuss 5. The cable is a pain to get back (head in foot well and grope up! ), so after 2. you can just pull the cable out. Feed them left, there is a bar near the centre of the clocks the C & A plugs will be a bit fiddly to get past there 6. The cowl I find it easiest to squeeze at either end and feed it out to the left (wiper arm all the way down) I really, really need to get all these bits together in a full write up

The ones the g/f made caused the rev needle to stick, the photopaper may of been a bit thick, however we did just put over the existing faces. I also highly recommend you do a test draft print to make sure their the right size before you use photopaper

Knowledge is power, fore-warned is fore-armed and all that Also if you want tips on how-to get the clocks out in under 1/2hr, with no scratches to your hands let me know. It can be done quite easy when you've got the knack, first time I tried it took all afternoon to get them out, and I bled!

Well,............ dig out Miracle's wiring conversion guide If the wire in C5 is black and yellow, the car didn't need any rewiring for the clocks to work and you have a cable for the fuel light (according to Miracle's guide). This was the case in my Solida, but the light has never come on, I've been down to the white line at the bottom once, but never below so I don't know if it works on a Solida->SR conversion, but I'd hazard a guess of yes. However anything else (blank or different) and the car has been rewired (wire ends in the plugs moved around), in the case of rewiring I'd suggest B1->C5 might get it working, the wire is 'blank' with the old clocks and is the right colour for the new clocks (and left). I did this with the g/f's sportif. The only problem is that the wire is too short, so I just taped it off to avoid a short and C5 is blank now. You could extend the wire to get it to reach, then see what happens. But as I've nothing but a hunch as to the left-over wire B1 being the right one, I can't promise anything Hope that helps!

Good lord, you have been busy The result is gonna look good

Oh God, now I'm gonna feel really guilty if I don't do a proper write up at some point! , but it's great you've put some of my bits on the front page Still gotta sort that fuel needle, but it's gone all cold and rainy outside, ugh

Isn't there two kinds? boot and clip or something like that, can't quite remember sorry

Shorter rods + offset grind? (reduce the thickness, but only on the inside of the crank, top of the cylinder head goes further down) Interesting arm-rest, hollow or any thing interesting hid inside?
