dude, he is making the money on the postage .... the postage doesn't really cost US$30 per piece - I am sure it is significantly less - he is avoiding Ebay charges (as they charge a percentage of the purchase price as commission).

The signs are fairly large, so even tho they are light they go by cubic weight!!

Is it sent air freight?

don't know, I don't really give a crap, as long as they're here within 3 weeks and they arrive safe and sound!

fyi buyers - I paid shipping insurance on them too, for peace of mind.

Order is in, I have paid for them all, and am waiting for him to notify me the shipping EMS numbers for tracking. Will post them up when available.

also fyi, he said you can change the light bulbs in the head unit and change the colour of the signs. I am not sure what type of bulbs these are, but hopefully he will let me know or send some spares.

the payments have now all cleared and the guy is making the signs as we speak. We (I) got absolutely ripped on the Paypal A$ to $US conversion - they converted at US76.5c to the A$ (should have been around 80c to the A$). So it turns out everyone's orders are $5 more expensive. But I not gonna lose too much sleep over it. If you wanna give me the extra $5 each when you next see me at a cruise then that would be nice ..... if not, it's not the end of the world.

Will let you all know shipping/tracking numbers when available.

My signs arrived today! They look pretty good, but one doesn't work. Hopefully it is just something simple, but haven't had a chance to look yet. Instead of cutting and joining wires, I just got a travel adaptor from the hardware. Works like a dream (on the sign that works anyway)

Thanks for all the time you put into this Andrew. Your a champ. Finally my lounge room looks like a cheesy pub! :)

P.S. I'll give you the extra money owing when I see you. Thanks again, Ant. :)

got mine today too - and the email from the supplier giving shipping/tracking numbers :P

Mine are sweet as, I got 6 in total and they all work and are cool. One had the bulb dislodged (maybe like yours Ant), so I opened her up, pulled out the light assembly and put the globe back in. Works perfect now! Fyi, you can buy the bulbs around the place apparently, so if you prefer a different colour it is an easy fix.

Don't worry about the cash Kamikazee - it is too hard for the sake of $5. I just made the comment cos I am likely to catch up with the other fellas sooner or later. I just forgot Paypal give such a shitty exchange rate!

And don't bother with buying an adapter - just cut the end off and rewire a new plug on the end - 2 minute job and much cheaper. You can buy plugs from Woolies, Coles etc.

Hope you all enjoy your signs!!

Can you post up a picture of what they look like lit up next to something, so we can see the actual size of em?

I went into a new bar world shop last night looking for something similiar but all they had were shitty little globe type lights which said crap like bar open, and they were selling for $50.

Luckly these are coming from America otherwise if they were sent from anywhere in Asia customs would have checked em all out.

      I have more than enough digging, laying blocks, moving gravel, airrating, feeding and top soiling the grass, and setting up the veggie gardens growing some seedlings,  and then removing all the unused rock to keep me busy for the next few months at least,  hopefully the rain stops soon so I can get a few hours in this arvo, but, before that Sunday is washing day, is every body happy, you bet your life we are Nice country road day drives are a day off whenever I'm muscle sore from all the landscaping at the moment, but, more epic multiple day drives will start once the majority of the big jobs outside are completed

      Recommendation for engine oil funnel spill free

      By MBS206 · Posted

      I thought I'd come back and add something I JUST learned. A Toyota LandCruiser with a 1HZ, mates perfectly with a bottle of Nulon brake fluid. As in, it perfectly screws in. Great make shift funnel when you cut the bottom of it off. This may work for your Corolla.   Unfortunately, tipping a 10L drum is much harder than a 4 to 6L bottle, and they no longer include the easy pour tap which was just perfection to use previously.

      Fuel Pump Control Module & Dropping Resistor

      By EndZee · Posted

      Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?
