Craved do a good job, I've seen his work on someone elses covers and it looks great

or if you want to cheap out you can do what I did and spray them with touch up paint from super cheap, painted mine evoke metallic (VE Holden colour):

Awesome bloke to deal with, good pricing and REALLY goes the extra mile to get it done right.....

You can coat it yourself with paint like the guys have below (looks pretty good) but if your not confident then you cant go wrong with Craved :D

And NO i have nothing to do with them, i was just a VERY happy customer and like to share the experience!!

I have also heard nothing but great things about craved and I am up in QLD so the reputation crave has actually gets around.

Agree ^

I live in Perth, but I'm seriously considering ripping off my rocker covers when I get my car back and posting them to Craved to do. If only I could commit to a colour...

Goes to show that good workmanship etc goes a long way.... And word of mouth/keyboard etc.... :woot:

Colour? Dont want it to clash with your purple and chrome? :wub:

Exactly haha. I had decided on metallic gun metal, but thought it wasn't original enough. So then decided dark blue at the back of the covers, fading into a metallic black at the front. But then decided that looks too rice for me. So then I thought just metallic black, but now I don't think that will stand out enough. At the moment I'm thinking of blue, but everyone gets blue... So now I'm getting nothing :P

anyone in Sydney should speak to Competition Coatings in guilford.... Search for Compcoat in google to find them..

They ceramic coated my turbo, intake and exhaust manifolds, rocker covers, throttle body and cooler piping....

The car isnt back together yet but here is a pic so far....

    • Nope, needed to clearance under the bar a little with a heat gun, a 1/2" extension as the "clearancer", and big hammer, I was aware of this from the onset, they fit a 2.0 with this intake no problems, but, the 2.5 is around 15mm taller than a 2.0, so "clearancing" was required  It "just" touched when test fitting, now, I have about 10mm of clearance  You cannot see where it was done, and so far, there's no contact when giving it the beans Happy days
    • It's been a while since I've updated this thread. The last year (and some) has been very hectic. In the second-half of 2024 I took the R34 on a trip through Germany, Italy, France and Switzerland - it was f*cking great. I got a little annoyed with the attention the car was getting around Europe and really didn't drive it that much. I could barely work on the car since I was living in an inner-city apartment (with underground parking). During the trip, the car lost power steering in France - split hose - and I ended up driving around 4,000kms with no power steering.  There were a few Nurburgring trips here and there, but in total the R34 amassed just shy of 7,000kms on European roads. Long story short, I broke up with the reason I was transferred to Europe for and requested to be moved back to Japan. The E90, loved it. It was a sunk cost of around EUR 10,000 and I sold it to a friend for EUR 1,500 just to get rid of it quickly. Trust me, moving countries f*cking sucks and I could not be bothered to be as methodical as I was the first time around.
    • I assume clearances were all a-okay?
