Well long story cut short, was too drunk to drive back from valley the other night so thought i'd do the responsible thing and let my friend drive who was not drinking (i know, i know never let anybody drive ur car...), got about 2kms away from valley when he lost control in 2nd and slid into a concrete barrier on the ramp leading to the se fwy, impact was not big but was enough to squash my intercooler, smash my front L light and damage front L fender. I have all new aftermarket parts to fix but need the front left of the engine bay (where the intercooler pipeing goes thru) pulled out and straightened a bit and the crash bar repaired. Can any one point me in the direction of somebody who can repair this well and has exp with working on Skylines preferably on the southside (kuraby area) that aint gonna charge my thru the ass...

I am also going to need a pair of wide body Left and Right fenders and TR style front bar trimmed, prepped, fitted and painted, so if anyone knows anyone with good experience in this field. Please let me know.

I seen a few Liners drive past me on the night too (embarassing...) Damn tow truck that night cost me $250.00!!!!!!!!!!! too.

Yeah, he's a good mate and feels pretty damn bad... I am gonna help him out thou as i feel partly responsible. The car is setup to drift so dosen take much effort to get the rear end out, something he didnt seem to understand until he decided too put his foot down.... so i kinda feel bad for letting him do that especially considering he drives a front wheel probe.

Ok that sounds fair, just visit a few workshops and just by speaking to the staff you can tell quality of the work, everyones work is very similar.

Yeah figured as much, jus worried bout the new fibre fenders i have. If its not fixed properly i may have a lot of trouble fitting them (have heard of some bad stories in the past)

i dont know where u live but mandrakes in cleveland do a good job ive been told. And relistically if your car is designed to drift it should be harder to loose control sliding out. the whole ideal of SETTING UP your car to drift means that it will stay in control

    • I live in Thangool I cannot buy E85 fuel there or Biloela not many servo's sell it Rockhampton the  Ampol in Gracemere won't even sell 98 , it's hard to own a high performance car in CQ and NQ . 
    • Sounds like a good excuse for a trip to Australia! But yeah, trying it out is probably the best way to go about it. Please report back what you find.
    • Well as I will have both S1 and S2 front parts i will see what works best out of the two. Im not fussed if i need to drill extra holes, and im a big fan of Nutserts/rivet nuts and a nice painted dome head bolt as a way to hold stuff in place where plastic clips have broken and are hard to source new ones
    • Yeah truthfully it seems like the headlight supports for the ALTIA and S2 should be the same, but they aren't. I can only guess that the grill area of the Altia bar is different to the grill area of the S2 bar. Either that or it's due to the S1 bar having an angle up to the center bar that the Altia doesn't, or something. That said, I recently bought an Altia bar myself, and I fit it over the S1 brackets and thought "Yes, this will all work fine" so even as I doubt my own words as I post, I also daresay you'll be okay.
    • Me too. Apparently the new version of Invision will allow some customisation so look forward to a 'Love' reaction and a new 'Like' icon.
