yeah but the original one has the province (SWAT is divided up into regions) across the bottom. The logical thing to do would be to put australia on it... or Australia in japanese... ie オーストラリア.

It'd look kinda retarded if a bunch of aussies rolled around with SWAT Kyushu stickers.

valid point...

will try and get that pointing to the subforum.

Any more progress with this....

I just tried it, says it is a shared IP address.

I am going to print some up before the weekend, and would like more time rather than less.

Thanks

Guys,

Whatever happened to this brilliant idea!!! I was thinking that we need to find someone with a high quality vinyl cutter (one that cuts individual lettering) so that this can be done properly. The effect we are after is like the one earlier in this thread on the back of that 260RS.

To make it easier one sticker that would suit Stagea owners for the whole of Australia would be cool, like this:

The individually cut out white letters would look awesome on our almost black heavily tinted tails....

All we need is someone/some business able to do this!!

I can get this done. Give me dimensions and numbers - i'll give you a price.

I'll be going the plainest one possible. Will look tough on an all black car i think. :-)

I'll get back to you later this evening with some dimensions, I should really do some work right now though.... :D

Umm, I just realised the small writing under the S.W.A.T probably cant be cut that well on vinyl. I agree with keeping it plain for sure, but I think the explanation of SWAT would be essential. Reckon its possible to do?

I was thinking about 30cm wide at this stage.

that can be cut easily on vinyl. Its just picking out the areas you remove that are difficult haha... but he can print ink on the vinyl, so that may be easier. Plenty of options.

More I think about the more I think cut-out lettering will not work.

The design above is pretty damn perfect, bar the white border, all I wanted was the japanese lettering for Australia (which I believe in romaji is goushuu) below the "Stage Web for Advanced Tune bit. I think we need someone to create an image file with the above japanese word in japanese lettering so it can be pasted in I reckon?

I tried to find it and alter the above photo but I'm just not good at this sorta crap.

All I want is it to look like this:

Which I must admit looks good and its not cut-out!!

i can give adrian the picture of what we want done, as well as a web link to here. From there he weill be able to print the exact design straight onto vinyl and cut it. It will end up as a mixture of printed and cut vinyl i'd say, to get it looking the best. The letters will be printed and cut seperately so there is no square border etc.

roomaji for autralia is osutoraria. katakana is オーストラリア. The actual name for australia, when written in kanji, is Goushuu, i'll try and find the kanji for it. I'll ask in the Japan section on here.

That'd look abbroad minded femaleely brilliant with some Japanese writing I reckon

I have no idea what that means :P

But i think it will look.... 'effective'...

Seriously, I have no idea what happenned there, all I wrote was:

"That'd look brilliant", as to that other crap, I dunno, but I'll leave it cos it looks funny. I may have said bloody?

I have no idea how that text could possibly appear like that.

Edited by Stage Name

The stickers were printed (for WA) in early December, and given out on a (SAU) run, that lots were turning up to, but never did!

They were also given out at a "Whoop Arse Wednesday" drag meet, and again at Wanneroo Barbagllo raceway.

The enthusiasm was so overwhelming that I only gave out about 5!! These are being proudly worn on some cars.

I will keep them in my centre console, for when we have a better turn-out.

If you guys in other states want them. I don't mind modifying the template, with whatever you can make out of SWAT, (or twat if you like!!)

Forget the japanese, unless someone want's to send me the text changed to a curve, and must be a vector file. If you don't understand this lingo, then forget it, cause it'll take up too much time.

The stickers are rated for about 4years are easy to produce, and I haven't charged for them. BUT, I am not prepared to foot the postage. So if you want one, either nominate one person in your area or PM me, and send a SAE, to my address and I'll send the stickers by return.

I can't see any other easy way. I wouldn't charge more than $5 each even if I was selling retail, and it really isn't worth the hassle, with exchange of funds etc.

Sorry I haven't posted the answer earlier. I have been busy sailing ..... my other passion.

OK after reading the whole post again, here is the goushuu sticker, altered as requested.

Please don't worry about the colours they have been colour matched to the original sticker and print fine.

If someone wants to give me numbers then I'll print them off.

The fluro green line is the cutting line, so ignore that too.

You ned a vector file for the kanji for goushuu? why, if its just being printed, not cut?

Pity about the website - any news on getting the stageasaustralia.com one going on? FunkyMonkey?

    • Possibly avoid using a Cometic one unless the deck/head surface are perfectly flat. I did have a look just then and forgiving gaskets such as Tomei or Nitto don't exist for the FJ20, however the Bar-Tek or Kameari ones look good and might do the trick.
    • Because pipe threads for pipe things. M threads for bolt things. Throw some teflon sealant onto it and dust your hands off knowing you did the right thing, instead of going twice around the block to achieve a result using the wrong things. Of course, all of these solutions are ignoring the fact that the minimum thread pitch we're talking about here is 1.25mm, with the 1/4" in NPT or BPS being out around 1.4mm. You will need to know that the boss you're tapping has enough thickness for at least a few threads. That's one of the reasons that 1/8" is commonly used - because the pitch is <1mm. And why would you look to use 1/4" NPT in a BSP country anyway? Ugh.
    • Just throwing around ideas, does it need to be in the compressor cover? Why not the hot side piping?
    • 1/8NPT drill size = 8.7mm. Since the hole got messed up by me, it’s probably around 9mm.    So 1/4” NPT would be next step. A drill size of around 11mm would be preferred there which is not way of my M12 (drill 10.5mm and tap M12 threads)
