Nope never used them, but i am using Provident Crash at the moment to get some bits done.

They are very professional and particular.

I pick the car up tomorrow morning to see what the paint looks like.

Cheers

Shaun

Are they located on salisbury highway? Ive only seen it but dont know quality etc. best to go to a reputable work shop (not that im saying they're not) but its best to see examples before you hand your car to them

If thats your car in your avatar, looks nice as is.

Id do the bonnet if you managed to get a fibreglass vented one adz! but dont do it to your stock bonnet, save it.

Oh yer for sure, looking at a fibre glass one..

Just looking to break away from all the silver skylines around... And there is so many around!!! lol. i cant afford a full respray so i thought something like that would be cool..

I have seen the 2DIE4 car! wild as!!! He is on the INFMS car club site n i chat to him there. The fitment of the kit is great!! would recommend anyone wanting that to go there, but i havent seen there spraying ability....

maybe, do the bonnet and the roof ala 180sx drifter style, but in saying that, be sure they do a PERFECT job on the roof. it comes out fecking crap if they stuff up and you have orange skin effect on the car. go somewhere that you know is completly certified with what they do and have pride in their work.

I recently got my car back from M&C Doyles and I must say I've never been a more satisfied customer. Every time I spoke to Mike I felt confident that my car was in good hands, he drives an R33 himself. He sent parts back because they were sub-standard and he wouldn't put shit parts on my car. He also emailed me pictures of the repairs and parts though out the whole process. Not sure about prices though, insurance paid for my repairs.

my 2c

    • Power steering is probably because someone has nuked the HICAS CU and you no longer have the variable power asist doing what it is supposed to. How much boost are you running? You are aware that any more than 10 psi on the stock ECU is just asking for it to go to full R&R (that's Rich & Retard, which is effectively Retarded and Retarded!) which kills all the power. Depending on the exact conditions, it can just be runnign on the fat and stupid end of the maps, then the conditions change, you make a little more boost and the ECU goes into panic.
    • @BuiltNotBought Just as GTSboy said.   If you want driveabilty and more low down torque..keep the stock runners. They are VERY good from a factory. I have them too on my RB25DET NEO and as a GTSboy i have fmic but with stock piping route(i have Blitz intercooler) Iam making around 320 BHP and the car pulls "hard" from like 2,5k all the way to 7k. I have it dyno tuned to mimic N/A power curve and making little less max torque due to the smallbox tranny. But driveability is very great. I had 350Nm below 3k so car feels very quick.   EDIT:  Not my channel but i saw this and i know that is what i want (and i have exactly this)  
    • Looking to sort out a couple of issues on my skyline  It recently was rebuilt, however rebuilder long story short did not give two flying effs about the work he did. So moving forward it's running but I have two persistent issues 1) it has a misfire / lag type of issue (was at higher RPMs but I had a dead piggy back ecu removed which improved it) now it's not as bad but still does it at random, I thought it may have been a boost issue I'm running an older turbosmart dual stage controller, turbosmart told me to try running off gate pressure however it still has a lag at random times. It has New MAF, maf plug, coil packs, sparks, CP harness.. injectors tested and cleaned. Factory ECU. 2) Power steering issue. It is tight as anything. Flushed power steering, rebuilt my pump because the bearing was shot. Flushed again still tight (mainly when parking and going slow into my driveway etc)  No kinks in hard lines, replaced the lines I could see had cracks. Still tough to steer.  I was told to shim a coin and place into the solenoid plug? Is there anything else. My steering angle sensor also has a issue. It's a used one I replaced, does it need to be calibrated? I feel like I've tried everything and this car is my voodoo doll.   
    • Holy shit... wow!!! I totally missed this
    • One main filter. Each tank has a prefilter to keep rocks and small children out, then the big main filter that also does water separation. Clogged the first one so bad it was like a rev limiter at 3200rpm. Literally just like dropping the throttle off and maintaining rpm!
