Just a tip - you guys are going to have problems with the Tassie maps for the most part.

Especially the "tiger" split. Creating it wont be a problem - however applying them to the actual car will be a different story as they will have to be a layered sticker, which also adds cost.

Some great idea's coming out though.

If we go with any gradiant or layering, they will probably need to be printed on vynal (like car wraps), and get them cut out with a vynal cutter. Makes a good quality sticker (my race car is done in the same stuff), but might get expensive with the cutting.

Who got the last batch done? from memory they knew more than one person who did it. Any idea on price options?

With the sticker you can simplify it and go all one solid colour vinyl, as long as the design allows it.

A layered sticker is more expensive to produce so keeping the sticker colours side by side is the best bet.

So the final logo must work on all these applications (vertical, horizontal also cheap to produce as a car sticker/decal).

with the grey tassie maps you can use a brushed steel vinyl if you chasing that look, but specialty vinyls an't cheap!

so where do we go from here people?

Probably wait for a few more people to post up, then compile a shortlist of peoples favourites and once we have it down to 4-5 different ones spread it out amongst the different designers to perfect a set of designs. I really like some of the designs above, but to make them perfect each could do with a few more iterations (i.e. sizing isn't exactly right between the different text, colour schemes are fluctuating slightly, same logo but different designs for different applications should be completed to get a general feel of how it would look).

This is the general process it would go through in a design house to get the best outcome, would be awesome to see it happen here :)

These last ones I got done I did them on the cheap. But they were still $3 each. You're looking at almost double the price for a propper multi layer vinyl cut sticker.

surely with the price of vynal wraps coming down it wouldnt be that dear to have them done on printed vynal?

i havent personly seen a layered sticker for years.

if a local company cant print them cheaply than we can look interstate. i have delt with 3-4 sign writers in launnin that are able to do what we want just the price varys.

i know a few years back that drifting tasmania got there windscreen banners and alike done by a victorian guy cheap as.

so id be looking to have a better quallity sticker and then find a place to do it at a realistic price.

good quality stickers will last for years.

so where do we go from here people?

On the first page I said we'd collect designs for a month, then run a forum poll to decide the winner.

If people stop submitting designes i'll put the pole up earlier.

  • 2 weeks later...

Looks like the designers have put in plenty of designs. So we can start a poll to pick the winnah, can the designers pick their top 7-10 designes (there was only 3-4 people that put designs in from memory), and we can get this moving

    • yeah first and reverse is where you will find clutch release issues (whether hydraulic or mechanical) because the difference in revs required is the highest there; particularly changing down from 2nd to 1st when still moving. To be clearer though, it is possible that the clutch release bearing is the wrong height. This is less likely than a hydraulic issue but it is not unheard of when you are mixing and matching
    • Quite right, if you make it to that pension you deserve every cent
    • Hi all, Restoring r33 series 1 rb25det. All the heater hoses were on their way out, have replaced them and put it all back together. After testing I noticed a small leak from behind the head on the actual metal water line to the turbo when cars warm. I tried running a longer hose over it but it kept leaking...   I am about to take the (stock) manifold off again😔 to change the water line does any one have any lines they recommend? I was looking at Aeroflow Turbo Oil & Water Line Set but not sure what everyone else recommends. Car is completely stock but want to upgrade turbo eventually. it looks like ill have to disconnect a lot just to replace these lines so if there's anything else recommended to do please let me know. Thank you in advance!
    • From memory, on the R33 GTSt at least, while everyone says "It's not adjustable", I found when I changed clutches in mine, it just needed a small adjustment on the rod length. But be very wary here, as you could end up trying to push the pushrod in the master too far, or blowing out the slave.   Most likely though, if the master/slave isn't bypassing internally or leaking out, then the throw out is the wrong height compared to the fingers on the clutch, so when it moves to disengage the clutch, it isn't 100% disengaged. You can check part of this out too by jacking the car up, having the engine running, put your foot on the clutch and try to engage 1st gear. If it goes in pretty easy (Compared to the ground) and/or the wheels start turning a fair bit and it takes a bit too much brake pedal to bring them back to a stop, this is likely the issue.  I'm not sure if you can adjust the height of the forks etc in these though, it's been that long since I've touched any RB gearbox.
    • That's all good, I thought I was missing some interesting feature! Maybe @PranK can double check if that is something that is meant to be operating or not.
