i know of one workshop that charged my friend $900 for a turbo install. Is this a resonable price - you dont have to state how much you paid guy just your opinion and other ppls opinion in general.

Can you PM me the name of the workshop (I have an idea, but I might be wrong)

yeah it is cold. Im looking throughout my wardrobe to look for jackets/jumpers/beanies and what not.

btw pete (gt nut) used a jetfighter heater or something like that when he resprayed his car - coincidently it was in winter. Do you think that it would be sufficent to make the drying process quicker?

whats a jetfighter heater?

i wouldnt use anything that blows air onto the car, cos anything floating past through the air will get blown onto the paint. but then again im reluctant to paint anything in the shed anymore, well 2K resprays anyway (from prior attempts). It would be difficult to find something that can put about 30 degrees of heat into every panel on the car, better off just to wait until a warm day. I think you can hire spray-booths in adelaide? if you could organise something like that, it would be way better.

Yeah, you could get away with just painting front panels in the shed. my suggestion would be to wait until warmer weather (if its possible), this makes a huge difference, and give the area that you are going to paint in a thorough cleanup (as little dust as possible), then hose the floor down with water so as to settle all the dust on the ground

    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
