car trims in burwood did a good job on my bits. they're near the corner of toorak road and wattlevalley road, and their logo is a red corvette. dunno how SE you are though so burwood may or may not be good.

Mate im an upholsterer and i know a really really good trimmer if you want his number let me know.

But like somone else has said it is not cheap, steering wheels are very fiddly and time consuming, like a lot of trimming in cars.

I do a little bit of trimming here and there mainly for myself as i really dont like doing it, i much prefer doing my usual stuff couches etc...

hey simon, how much would I be looking at to get a fresh coating of vinyl (or whatever it is) on my r32 dash? Mines all crappy and old and faded.. I'm just looking for a stock look. I can take out the dash and bring it to him/you/whoever if needbe.

Hey fozice,

Like i said: id personally prefer not to do it, but my mate is extremely good at trimming id say one of the best in melbourne, if you take out the dash yourself he would do it no problems, and id say it wouldnt be too expensive as the 32 dash is fairly straight forward and he has done a few before.

If you want his number pm me and ill give it to you.

Otherwise try the dash doctor i think it is

Hey guys, sorry to bring up an old thread, used the SEARCH function and this is what i stumbled upon.

I am looking for someone that can 'repair' / 'retrim' my passenger side's carpet. I live in the city so areas like Knox or Scoresby is kind of out of the way.

    • Great work! Thanks for documenting the process.
    • How would you even adjust the clutch if the pedal already has the correct free play? The operating cylinder has no adjustment in mounting position or rod length. On pull style clutches there is also no ability to adjust the bearing carrier. Push type I can see how adjusting the carrier height makes it all work.   If this is the twin plate clutch did you verify that your friction disks were oriented correctly? It's not mentioned in the directions at all you just have to notice that one side the friction disks have a part number on the hub fingers and a subtle coning to those fingers. Another thing that I noticed was if you put the friction disks in backwards the pressure plate fingers will not be even and flat when the clutch is installed.
    • yeah, mechanically, it is probably do-able, off the top of my head, there would be the transfer case, which I believe will bolt up to the rear of the RWD transmission, the shorter rear tail shaft. A front drive shaft, front diff, engine upper sump, front drive shafts, front hubs and front AWD struts (they are shaped around the front drive shafts), LCAs (at the very least from the front suspension) oil cooler.  You might want the rear diff from an AWD too, so you can be certain the front and rear diff rations are identical.  Who knows what brackets and mounts you might need.  So a whole doner car might be the best option if you need to maintain RHD. Then actually making it work, that would be a whole different story.
    • Take the fall as a warning sign for future endeavours  Stay safe mate
