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

    • Yes. You will need to get the original boost sensor and wire it in. That is.... if you plan to use a stock ECU - even a Nistuned ECU. The Nissan ECU will not operate correctly without it connected. And yes, it will do annoying stuff like you are experiencing. You will almost certainly be better off with some aftermarket ECU, than trying to hunt down rare sensors.
    • Ok so ABS/TCS is "not" the problem. Yeah i know now about the ABS with Nistune(i told that to the Nistune guy) but iam not 100% why or why i dont have ABS. ABS cube is in the engine (always has been) but i had braked couple of times rly hard and brakes just locked and scream. Does all Skylines have ABS cube? That boost sensor https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/367633-wtb-r34-gtt-turbo-pressure-sensor-pics-inside/ Is this it? I need to ask but i have a picture of engine bay and i do not see that (100% is not in that place) If i do not have this the car can do what mine is?(cutting around 4000 rpm) Here is the pic of my engine bay(only one i have) BUT i think i dont have that cuz loom was used from my RB20DE NEO and i know (obviously) that it does not have boost control or any wire to that...) so maybe that is the problem? (i dont know for 100% if that car where the engine is from had that)...but i dont have the loom from that
    • I'm with you here. It's either loom has an issue, OR, injectors are not functioning properly. It could even be they're just constantly dribbling, hence the wet, but not firing.
    • Depending on how long the car sat it is very possible for injectors to be stuck open or closed, I'd get them cleaned and flow tested. Other than that, obviously when the loom changes and the car doesn't start any more....the loom is suspect so some tracing / comparing may be required
    • Harness is for a s1 Rb25det, and it is engine and lower harness.  the old harness had broken off plugs and was in very rough condition/exposed wires and splices etc. it is not able to be put back on the car, I could visually inspect to see if they had rewired any pins on the ecu plug. The fuel pump definitly isn’t turning off it’s an external pump and very loud you can hear it. Will look at the other harness tonight, am also going to pull the fuel rail and watch the injectors spray, will update here with what I find. Pretty sure at this point it has to be something to do with injectors because car will fire up on starting fluid and cas is clicking the Injectors. Fuel pressure is steady 43psi
