Just wondering. i was thinking of giving my car a nice glossy black/metallic if i could, just wondering how much will that cost roughly, but also i was wondering if it would be better if i get the body kit put on first before the respray.

I just got my r32 resprayed. got ferrari yellow paint and black bonnet , black boot. cost me 4K with panel beating (getting little pin dents out) and new front widscreen cos they crack. Ben at BBK custom paints did. he's in Balcatta. if you want i could giv you his number, he's a mate and he could do you up a quote.

I took my car in on a Thursday and it was ready that Sunday, he's quick and very good.

my number is 0421957321

  • 2 months later...

I had my car painted by BBK. I went for black with silver glitter as i just didnt want plain black as its kinda boring. But if your not keen on the glitter i would think bout changing clolour its not that much more expensive and would be well worth it.

As for price you would be looking at 3k for just black and about 4-5k for anything different.

I would give Ben from BBK a call and get a quote 0421957321

interested in the glitter, how much you paid cause i also got a R32 GTS-t black

I've just had my R33 GTS-t panelled and repainted.. black with red pearle, gold pearle and glitter. Looks awesome when the sun hits it and just looks metallic black at night. I got it done through a mate though so it was really cheap... expect to pay around 5k hey - depending on the type of job they do. Especially cos its black all little ripples and dents will show up so you want a good quality job!

I paid $5500 from Cowley smash in a full color change from black for my shitter.

This included;

Fitting of a glass vertex kit

Welding the boot lid

Spraying the engine bay and welding up a few holes

Repairing every little dent you can imagine

Ive had paid a lil extra too now and had GTR fenders fitted to my car, so it looks alot wider.

Awesome quality work, cant fault it at all. The fitment of the kit makes it look like it came from the factory.

what are the payments like, could you like drop off your car and get it back after you paid it off

Cash mate. You give them your car, and you pay cash or cheque once its finished. Never heard of a panel beater offering resprays with installments. If its a huge job, usualy give them a bit of a deposit, then pay as you go along.

    • I certainly fall into the annoyed camp, but glad to hear that if it's happening at low boost then I'm not likely going to blow a turbo and end up with metal shards in my oil. Just feels like it prevents me from really driving it without hesitation and "peak" performance. Wonder if it's the VCAM, it did an impressive job of shifting the torque curve and faster spool, but maybe now it's "too fast" and there's too much air for how open the throttle is.  Based on some other threads, will also do some reading on synchronizing the actuators. They are the default actuators that come on the Garrett's and I would think they would be set the same coming from the factory, but if the turbos don't actually work exactly the same way at the same time as previously mentioned, it would be worth making sure the actuators are actuating together properly
    • I went down this rabbit hole before, ended up sourcing a motor from the UK (I'm in Japan) which also didn't function correctly. With the original motor, I disassembled it and reassembled it and it works somewhat, sometimes. What I could deduce from all my screwing around is that there is calibration of the gears on the inside of the motor and two ramps on the main gear which activate switches that operate the motor and move the sunroof either to retract into the roof or tilt. Where I got stuck was that, it seemed in my case that one or both of the switches that are activated by the ramp on the gear did not always activate and thus the motor did not move, causing it to sometimes not retract or tilt (apologies, I've forgotten which way it didn't work.).  Of course this part is discontinued at Nissan now, it's the same part in the S15 but no other models. I also contacted the manufacturer of the component for schematics - forgot the name, they're based in Gifu - but they declined to share the information due to being bound by an NDA, sadly. Looking through my pictures now, it seems I last had a crack at this in 2022. See, I so kindly wrote "open" and "close" next to the switches. If you figure it out, please do tell me. Those little switches, with the red buttons may need to be replaced.
    • It says 300ZX, does that make it an Aus delivered car? Funny how back in the day I just couldn't care less about Z32's and these days I am just in love with them. Back when Nissan was into pushing the envelope. 🤣
    • Hi guys, just after some guidance with an R34 sunroof that has stopped working correctly. It still opens and closes perfectly fine, but it no longer tilts/vents up or down. As a result, the rear of the glass now sags a bit as it drops down slightly in order to retract into the roof, but now it can't pop upwards into a flush position. I’ve probed the pins on the back of the switch connector with a multimeter and it seems like both switches (for open/close and tilt/vent) still work correctly. Any ideas on what it could be, or where I should even start in terms of diagnosing? I'm sure someone's had this issue before but I haven't been able to find anything online relating to this specific issue, most of the issues are with the seals leaking or the motor failing entirely. Thanks in advance!
