Anyone ever had a part 3D printed for their car?
Tomb replied to Santiago's topic in General Celica Discussion
You should be able to get it printed, I designed a mould for my custom intake manifold using a 3D printer. As I only needed the ends mating nicely I used a scanner with rule (for scale) to get the correct alignment. Then worked some carbon wizardy with the mould. if you’re on Facebook 3dprintmyride is full of people that do just what you’re after some have access to CMM’s, although I’ve not used mine for car parts they will give a very accurate measurement of your other side which can be flipped on cad easily enough prior to printing. -
New challenge time?

Fabricated some brackets for my charge set up; fitted a shorter aux belt so I could eventually removed my ac compressor, and painted my sump. -
I count that as achieved

After finding a small amount of fluid yesterday that didn’t appear to be engine oil, spent ‘some time’ last night and this morning investigating. Found it to be an air con leak already small amount of oil? In the pipes as I had lost the gas whilst I had everything apart I decided removed the pipework and rad. Sorry I didn’t want to drive until I knew what it was so missed New Forest @Akuma77 -

Eventually got around to fitting Black Betty’s old intake manifold after degreasing it, to replace the dented one I had; gave the rad another bleed; cleaned the throttle body; and cleaned my IACV. -

Changed my lift bolts (I was surprised to see wear on them; changed the rocker cover gasket; oil breather upper gasket; oil pick up o ring; changed the plugs; transmission oil change; engine oil change; new oil filter; flushed my rad and matrix before refilling the system; replaced a small section of exhaust to replace a very rusty weld. -

In my opinion we need to get Ian and Dean within the calendar, to show the club is also about the people. (Sorry this is taken from the meeting thread so low res, I am sure Cipprio has a higher quality copy of it available). -

What size end plates are you looking for, do they exist or are you having some made to match Ragnaroks unique look? -
You should have put a plastic sheet in your boot first

Managed to crack my transmission case :-(, a day after giving her a clean underneath, made it easy to see the crack, but keeping positive gave a good excuse to move forward the oil change. -
is this going to look dodgy to the DVLA ?
Tomb replied to G.Lewarne's topic in General Celica Discussion
If ordering from eBay as a lot are referring to they are not always legal plates the plate must comply with and have the BS mark on them to confirm they comply with - BS AU 145 D and as previously mentioned the name and postcode of the supplier, if not you can be pulled over and fined for having illegal plates which is becoming very common in the UK, Bristol officially being the worst place for being caught for illegal license plates. I am also aware a Lot of places don’t request documents but someone can have a plate made and just fit it when they intend to speed with no repercussion to them, how would you feel knowing that happened to you because someone made plates for your car without checking the documents?
