  2. Wrapping tips

    in General Celica Discussion

    Posted

    Im no expert at wrapping unless its prezzies :xmas_smile: Birthday hint hint.

    What Tony suggests is not to trim the edges to close leave more on and stick to underside. Isnt pretty but no one sees it. One of mine I did was brilliant for a couple of weeks untill the heater blower decided to alter it, but am sure a better quality wrap may have survived. :xmas_smile:

  4. show me your decals please

    in General Celica Discussion

    Posted

    Yeah I've done a quick Google search for gt4 graphics but I'm going to have to try something else as it mainly came up with the castrol decals!! Well I have plenty of time as I have other bits to get sorted first like having the front and rear bumpers painted and fitted along with the new spoiler and other bits I want on the car before I go ahead with it all!!

    My other half "the modgod" has been drawing and planning some graphics for mine while hes been recovering, as most say they really do take some serious planning to get right. Naturally |"Dragons" are to be a major part of his designs for my car, I still have a large dragon graphic he made that fills the gen6 bonnet in white, that was to be fitted to my last 6 . The hours he spent making it and it will never be used makes me feel a bit guilty so if anyone wants it youre welcome. :)

    Good luck with the ideas though would love to see more graphics about.

  6. Body work. Need to fix PU to PU.

    Not trying to preach to you how to do this, :) But if I can relay this from my hubby the prep is most important with this kit. You will have a sheet of what is a type of polythene that is totally non stick which when put over the repair goo aids the smoothing out, if I can give one special tip hubby does is to find a way of putting some "extra weight/clamp, not a lot needed" on the patch to help with ensuring no air voids. And clean off as much excess to the outer show face asap before it fully sets as it can be a pig to sand down, as hubby found out the hard way which is testament to how good this stuff is.

    You already know my nosecone is 2 different and plastics bonded with this kit, he has used it on varied bits for instance a R33 nosecone to repair all the mounting tabs, spoiler for same and 3 years later still going strong. Brilliant on motorbike fairings, upto now he hasnt found anything in plastic or glass fibre it wont bond to.

    Ps No we are not in anyway attached to this company, just in case anyone is thinking so :) Hope this helps

    Now you really should know that we talk alot and then run if there's the slightest chance of any actuality.! :rolleyes:

    Humour really is the best medicine..and surely this is what this thread is all about..?..otherwise I've got this well wrong.!..lol

    Neil

    You have it bang on Neil,

    I enjoy banter as much as the next person and no one can ever call me a prude. If I thought this club was a tool purely for notching the the bedpost or should it be handbrake then I wouldnt be here now writing this. In my opinion we are here for our cars, the banter "abuse from monkey boy and sonic" and the car meets :)

    Perfect this is what we want! Top man.

    I hear of a lot of Chilli 7's being mistaken for Ferrari's by the uneducated. Good call on the child tho lol

    How thick am I ??? :brickwall: Believe it or not, I have just done a club search for member "chilli red" I shouldnt even admit to this really but am piddling myself laughing for being such a doughnut. :blush:

    Loving this guys, and well done Funky on starting this off :thumbs: . Not meaning to be a killjoy but it is nice to hear of a man other than my hubby with morals that values his marriage and possibly his vital bits :twisted:

    You other MEN need your butts smacked (but I guess youd think it a kinky sex game) :rolleyes: What has intrigued me though Funky is this Favourite Magazine ??????? Does it have a NAME or should I say have you renamed it Bridget also ????? And lastly remember, all men talk in there sleep !!!!! Have your explanation ready for when you dream of BRIDGET :) :)

    Air con gas- UK vs Import

    in Consumable Parts

    Posted

    Nope , imports use a different gas , that is banned in this country , kills polar bears or something , if normal air on gas is used it will rot the seals out in a week or so and kill more polar bears lol

    Look under the bonnet , see if there is a sticker to say what gas it takes , r12 is illegal now , and kills polar bears , r13a is good gas , an r12 system could be converted , but at a cost that I wouldn't rather undo my window instead :)

    well i didnt know that either !!!!!!!!

  18. eBay:Old photos used to sell car

    in General Celica Discussion

    Posted

    Check his history out a bit more if possible with ebay, has he sold many cars, with similar issues. Personally it is blatantly not as described no matter how cheap. How can you trust anything he has stated re the car, cheap maybe, but it could also be a total pain in the butt, and may be only fit as scrap value.

    Hope this helps a bit

    Best way to cut sheet metal?

    in Consumable Parts

    Posted

    These cutters Insanity and Dublet suggest are brilliant, even easy for me to use, makes your hand hurt after awhile. I bought my hubby some of these 10 year ago and still working fine on origional cutter head. One of the best things with these are there is no distortion when cutting which you get with ordinary snips. :)

    One vital thing i seriously suggest you get though, is a decent pair of gloves or a big box of plasters :) . We are lucky where we live, there is a small metal supply shop within a couple of miles lets you have any amount you need and will even cut to sizes you ask for..
