  10. To be honest you shouldn't really weld bolted connections unless stated, if there moment connections sometime they are required for movement in the structure. As long as grade 8.8 bolts are used, ideally in shear, they won't go anywhere. As for the welding, practice makes perfect:d Buy yourself a decent Arc welder, get some 10mm plate and practice with butt welds flat on the bench and when you get the slag to look like a scorpions tail (curls up and virtually falls off with a tap) then stand the plates up and practice vertical welds weaving from side to side and as you hover the rod over each plate count to 2 then swing to the other plate and count to 2 working from the bottom up and keep going. Not as easy to master as MIG but it is only practice. Obviously this is a very general idea, maybe the next time the lads come to do a weld have a chat and ask them to show you;)
  11. If it's site welding they'll be using Arc welders (not MIG), if it's a small box probably an inverter type if it runs off 110v transformer. To be honest positional Arc welding is a different game altogether mate. That will take a bit more practice and if your talking of beams with flange thickness of about 15mm. There decent size beams so decent welds of a reasonable quality will be needed, plus any structural engineers (if involved?) won't like site welded beams and could quite easily pull one's with suspect welds. I take it you mean beams like these?
  12. Mig welding for structural steel is very easy if your a hands on bloke. Just be careful of specified welds if you doing structural stuff i.e leg length, root runs etc if it's heavy beams. If you want a run to north wales in your car;) i'd be willing to spend an afternoon with you in our workshop to teach you the basics:d Seriously though if you went to night classes i think you would pick it up very quickly, but you will need a decent welder to do steelwork.
  13. Just stuck mine back on other wise i could of given exact dimensions. But if it's any help the badge is in the middle of the headlights (about 337mm from either side on mine)as mentioned, and 23mm down from the bumper shut line to the top of the badge
  14. No, not in the area anyway that i know of. Some of the north west part of this forum come up for a pancake run every now and then but thats about it i'n affraid. Not many Supra's in the area to be honest. Stay on here though and there are plenty of national one's but not until next year now i'm affraid:( Keep an eye on this page for any events http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/forumdisplay.php?f=7
  15. Hi mate, can't really help you with the garage but i'm only 10mile down the road from you (prestatyn area) So if you ever come up my way in your car give me a shout, always like drooling over Supra's:d
  16. I'm sure all will be o.k Dunk. Didn't feel like it was losing compression to me:D:p
