Re: Grand Tourers Register
Another one popped up for sale in Coventry, I don't know if it was on the register already Tony? B484XVF. Some of the later C...XVF regs were factory owned cars used for magazine reviews, maybe this one has an interesting history too. https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/382617777899809 You app...

Re: Front Brake Caliper seals
Thanks for that Tony. I've looked at it again and think I understand how it goes together now, with the long seal going through the caliper and just the concertina sections being visible either side. I bought the top slide seals (with the metal inserts) as well, so should be good to go. The Amayama ...

Front Brake Caliper seals
I had the common issue of one of my front calipers sticking recently, so took it apart, then cleaned and regreased the sliders. In the process, I noticed that a couple of the slider seals were beginning to split, so I used amayama.com to identify the correct Toyota parts and ordered them. Going by w...

Re: 89 my bonnet vents
My 1990 bonnet vent also came adrift, although not far enough to come into contact with anything! If I remember correctly, it needed some fibreglass cloth and resin to bond it back into place. It can be a bit messy so practice off the car first.

Re: Fuel Pump failure
Thank you Richard and Dwayne. Did either of you find any debris or fuel gum inside your old pumps?

Fuel Pump failure
Yesterday I had my first Failure to Proceed in 16 years of ownership... :shock: The car started to lose power on the A465 Heads of the Valleys Road at Pwnt Uchaf - the "Highest Point" - 1350 feet. 30 seconds later I was coasting down a (very opportunely located) slip road. It was rather cold and get...

Re: New Excel model coming soon
Now several members have the model, I have a question. Do the small metal plaques underneath, in my case 001/120, refer to 120 in green plus 120 in red, or 120 total? My daughter is convinced mine is the first off the line, but I couldn't be that lucky? Also is the red one registered the same F135R...

Re: New Excel model coming soon
All the yellow and white comes off too. You are left with a stainless steel (?) silver plate. It certainly didn't scratch too easily with the screwdriver blade, but I was careful. If your plates come like mine they are printed on a white film. I cut the front plate to the exact width, but very sligh...

Re: New Excel model coming soon
Thanks Peter. It's worth taking the time to remove the old plate decals. I found the new self adhesive plates were a tiny bit smaller than the metal backing plates on the model, so if I had just stuck them over the top, the edges (especially on the back) may have been visible.

Re: New Excel model coming soon
I received mine just before Christmas. As promised, Grand Prix Models had corrected the badges. Since the model is an exact replica of my car in colour and trim, I then went on to find some 1/18th scale number plates. Again, they replicate the post-2001 font plates on my car, I chose the "No Border"...
