Hi guys,

Long time no speak! Just wondering if you could impart some knowledge on me...where in Canberra is a good place to get your car re-sprayed? And how much would these places cost (approximately of course)? I'm not looking for a $15K showroom re-spray but I don’t want a dodgy - "it'll crack on you within a few months" job either. I don't really know a lot about paints and what affects the prices of them but I do want a reasonable metallic paint.

Thanks guys'n'gals.

Pat

really depends on what you want, you can get 2 pac finishes these days with acrilic paint (mind the spelling) so cost less due to not having to bake, plus all the other prep work. Your looking at 5k for a good job and thats if there is no dents in your car to start with.

A bloke I have met through work can get jobs done extremely cheap if you can prep the car yourself and supply the paint. Im talking $600 for a full respray in 2 pac. The way he gets it done so cheap is because he knows a place that spray paints kitchens. The job is pretty good, the only catch is they can only really do 2 pac. If you dont mind the gloss finish its a good option.

Thanks guys. Also thanks for the offer rebelde but I won't be doing it just yet as two reasons: I'm not sure if I want to keep my current car (which I may get re-sprayed) and the second being I'm looking into it more for when I get either a Skyline or 200sx (which I may have to get re-sprayed because I want a flawlessly beautiful car lol)....

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      Pads for R32 GTS-t, R32 GT-R non V-Spec (Sumitomo), R33 GTS-t and R34 GT-t are all interchangeable. R34 GT uses a 2x piston caliper, hence it didn't fit.

      Checked with amayama and nope, the full S2 manual set is not available anymore. Unsurprising, but still disappointing as the ? on availability gave a glimmer of hope.

      I've heard the Tomei USA head gaskets are decent if you want to o-ring the heads but otherwise not recommended.

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      The 296mm rotors are the R33 turbo brakes. The 310mm rotors are the R34 turbo brakes. The calipers are nearly the same, but not. They're the same caliper but the R34 caliper has longer legs so that it sits out far enough to go over the rotor. The pads are the same for both. When you say, "I bough tsome EBC"....did you just mean pads? Or rotors? 310mm rotors fit under 17" wheels. There may be some wheels without enough clearance though. I can't fit my fingers between the barrel of my wheel and the "corners" of my R34 calipers, but there is plenty of room behind the spokes. This is on Enkei RPF1. You can fit 324mm rotors inside a 17" wheel, but I'd be willing to bet that it would be close to impossible with the Nissan/Sumitomo caliper (using an adapter, of course), because the Sumitomo caliper is fatter than the Brembo caliper that is supposed to go on the 324mm rotors.

      Hi. Can someone tell me what brakes(and mainly WHERE) can i buy brakes on R34 GTT? I bought some EBC which SHOULD go on my car(i have GT but it has GTT brakes) but it does not fit, Brakes are "too" small(296mm) Are 310mm be good or? I have 17 inch wheel so no "big boys" but for me driving i just need one that fits and i can get here in EU/Czech.
