Druan at Panel N Paint in fyshwick (Dee Color) is pretty good too.. got awards for best color matching in australia.. and hes just up the road from jerrys..

I'm getting together some quotes for some scratches n stuff too.

Is "Panel N Paint" in fyshwick the same place as: Professional Paint N Panel at 58 Kemlba Street Fyshwick? I just spoke to a guy called Kane.

I'll also be getting quotes from Fuller Brothers in Belco, Precision Panels (maybe not, after a horror story a friend told me) and also BARS in Mitchell (but I already know they charge 88 bucks for non-insurance jobs).

Nah dont think its on Kembla street, unless they moved.. its Always been accross the road from Ozzy Tires, forget the street name, (Wollongong Street)?

Just rang Detail FX, $150+ for exterior paint detail which isnt too bad. I'll see what jerry has to say about it when i drop it back for some other things...

hmm.

nice.

I might get mine spruced up. Lovely colour that it is :laugh:

hhey guys, thought i might recycle this thread for this topic which is sorta related.. sorta.

My old man and i are loking to buy a 60's Crown.. preferrably late 60's deluxe. It's a long story to why he wants one. He's looking to restore it, but I'm looking to pimp it out! "X TO THA MUTHA F$@!ING Z!!" style..

In regards to the paint job, assuming that the current paint job is good condish, if i wanted a pearl effect on it, simply put is it just the matter of spraying the pearl on? Would they have to strip back the current paint job put new paint.. then apply the effect? I'm not all too familiar with how it all works

Can anyone recommend anyone?

I tried looking on some toyota forums but they all drive corollas.. and there isnt that sense of family that skylines provide.. hahaha

Anyway, good to be back! Cheers for any info that you can provide.

    • Haha, i kow right? Could have bought so many cars for the same amount of money (or less) but driving Unicorn gives you at least +1mln to style 😅. Like wise man said "life's to short to drink cheap wine and drive boring cars" 😉
    • Newbie here, proud owner of an Autech 260RS. I'm on the hunt for wiring diagrams specific to the 260RS, particularly S1. I've ran my eyes through R33, R34 Diagrams, there are some similarities, however continue to find incorrect wire colours and pins on connectors in the 33,34 diagrams.   I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction? I'd be happy to pay for the originals in Japanese. I can translate them, at least they would be accurate.   Any help please would be greatly appreciated, never heard an RB26DETT before let alone driven one, and I've got a spaghetti monster of goodness to sort out.   Cheers Benny  
    • Hey all  im wondering if you can help me please I have put a rb20 box in my r34 gtt as my auto packed up and a friend had a spare box I know it’s not ideal but it will get me up and running for now. we have done the conversation and everything is working great but my Speedo we got a s13 speed sensor but my Speedo reads double now and I bought a speed converter but still not having any luck.  so I thought I’ll reach out and pick your brains  any help would be appreciated please as I wanna drive my car again 
    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻
