Well it's been quite a while since F1r3fly said anything about a translated tut and I have an almost completed one sitting on my dest. The only problem I'm having right now is with step 5 and 6.
GPC tutorial is here: http://forum.penspinning.de/viewtopic.php?f=105&t=21649
It would be really nice if someone could translate this for me (and like a real translation not just a babelfish runthrough).
Thanks

i tried that too, but i found a simpler solution than playing with the 2 inktube tips and what not
drill a hole big enough in the rsvp cap for an emptied g2 inktube to slide through not loosely.
take 3 rings of g2 grip and then cut it until it wraps around the g2 inktube and both cut ends meet.
put the cut grip inside the rsvp inktube then slide the inktube in. (with the grip there, everything should be snug)
drill a hole in the g3 back cap big enough to snuggly fit around the g2 inktube.
slide on the g3 back cap the the g2 inktube, rsvp backcap and g2 grip combo and leave 1-2 cm of grip excess below the g3 backcap.
you do the same thing, but essentially its easier AND more stable -

Credits to F1r3fly for the mod.
Materials
2 x Pilot G3
1 x Hgg Grip
1 x Pentel RSVP Backplug
1 x Comssa Cap
1-2 x Anyball Grip (depending on your design)
Tools
Something to cut with (Hacksaw recommended)
File
Drill
Step 1
Take one g3, and cut off the front, so there is about ?1.5? cm left on the g3.
Drill out the front of the comssa cap so the g3 part can fit in. (You may have to file the G3 part)
Then add your grips, and screw the g3 tip onto the front of the drilled out comssa cap.
Step 2
Take the Sencond G3 and mod it like you would a GJH (cut off the front and file down the bumps)
Then cut the hgg too the length shown in the picture, it should cover the entire of the cut G3.
Step 4
Take both of the g3 inktubes, and prepare then like shown in the picture.
Step 5
Cut off the top of the RSVP Backcap, and Drill the G3 Backcap out like shown.
Step 6
Place the two G3 inktubes inside the G3 and RSVP Backcap like shown, and attach them together (maybe glue?).
Step 7
Put the G3/RSVP backcap thing into the back part of the G3 (so hard, rite?)
Step 8
Declip the G3 cap, and put the G3 tip and grip in as shown.
Step 9
Put the cap on the G3 body. (another impossibly hard step)
Congrats, You Now Has G3 ACR =D -

some of those steps seem ridiculous and unecessary.
Like the g3 part into the comssa cap? why?
I'm sure theres an easier way to attach a g3 tip to a comssa cap.
As well as the back, with the inktube parts that I presume are to hold the g3 cap on?
with a tad of scotch tape on the rsvp backcap will fix that??
as well, you could replace the "cut hgg" on the front of the body with an rsvp grip. -

Why not just use imageshack.us or photobucket.com to host your pics?
hope you fix the pics soon... i want to see how's the mod looks like. -

You can see one in the zw33en bucket. It looks very nice, but looks hard to make ^^. Anyway, good job firefly, as usual
