I spoke to a mate this morning that has a stand regularly at the autosalon's (and at the recent MAS) about banners and car decals, he said they would be happy to do a semi sponsor deal, with the banners, signage etc...

As an indication his standard pricing excluding any sponsorship deal for full colour banner signs is $120 per quare metre.

EG: if the sign is 75cm x 150cm you'd work it out like this

7.5 x 15 x 1.2(being the square metre rate) = $135.00

Their machine can print & cut any shape we want. The only thing we need to do to the banners is arrange eyelids as they dont do them. They mainly specialise in car decals... and I spoke to him about turning Snowman's :) car into a lolliCop mobile for the next MAS, which he said no probs and would love to do a semi sponsor deal with us.

sweet... i can arrange the decal templates so it looks exactly like a japanese cop (all I gotta do is trace the decal template off my Tomiya R34 cop car).

Should be easy as... mmmm R34 cop car... However I'd prefer a black car to use as a cop car since the jap cop cars are black n white...

Shan,

Thinking about your cop car idea last night, I thought it you meant creating a "victorian police skyline replica cop car"?? As I think this would be a great idea & an opportunity for some great publicity for the club if we created a skyline victorian cop car. What do you think?

hmmm an aussiefied GTR? could work... in that case snowman's car would be ideal coz its already got that Highway patrol look to it with it being bayside blue n all...

Meshmesh - I assume you mean we have to put eyelets not "eylids" yeah? Thats pretty simple to do.

Yep eyelets... If you can do it, then that's great.

Are these the guys who had the sticker stand at MAS this year?

Yep, the company is called U C Y Power Image.

hmmm an aussiefied GTR? could work... in that case snowman's car would be ideal coz its already got that Highway patrol look to it with it being bayside blue n all...

Thinking about it now, a little suck up "resch_pect" to the cops, and thinking about jame's idea, I guess it would definately attract a croud and alot of attention, if we had my white GTR & Andrews Blue LolliCop, decalled up.

The only issue's I can see is, would we go to the extent of putting the red & blue light's on?? Perhaps we could arrange something with vic police about the idea in promoting the concept??

here's the mob i was talking about... $150 hemmed, grommeted etc etc full colour 2 foot x 6 foot which is $150 + shipping from the US.

that's 61cm x 183cm... Which works out to be $133.95 so meshmesh, tell your mate he's got a deal.

not to worry, my mate's uncle works in a prop shop and he can provide the cop lights :) however they're US style cop lights so :

Also i was thinking of a model dressed in this standing next to the cop car ;)

but somehow i don't see that happening

Snowie, you have to eat donuts all day too. (start now to slow you down for sundays race)

I'm just contemplating adverse reaction to a stand depicting imports running from the police...there are always people who will see the bad message of something like that, like we are endorsing antisocial behaviour and running from the conscequences. I personally think it would look great. Sort of, the only way the plods could catch an import :):D:D not that they could get their donut padded rears in the R34.

Mesh I'm not that smart, just bored at the moment, and you know what they say about idle minds and mischief

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
