Hey everyone,

Last night was pretty crap, heading off to the gym at Knox, P plate driver didn't give way to me as i was going around a corner, collected the rear right quarter of my 32. Damage isn't too bad, just a bit dinted and a deep scratch starting about middle wheel arch and heading back towards the rear of the car. Pretty low speed so nobody was hurt (which is the most important thing!)

Anywayz, I'm looking for a few panel beaters to get some quotes, just wondering if anyone can suggest some places where they have had good results.

The kid who crashed into me has a family friend at "Brett Lacey Panel Beaters" on Highbury road, i said i would contact him first just because it was their preference (and i'm just a nice guy ha ha :sorcerer:). Has anybody been to this place before?

Any help would be most appreciated,

Thanks very much guys :rolleyes:

Ps: Yep, i've done the old "search" and found a few places like "police rd panels" and "DT panels" which have both come up quite a bit, so i will be checking them out

hey mate, sorry to hear..

i had a couple of nightmares with 2 different shops in the past but the third and last shop i went to i was most pleased about the work/service..

Police rd Panels in mulgrave, near the spagetti junction.. they do just car insurance work so they deal with imports often..

hope everything goes well..

Lacey's does good work but they're expensive

Hey mate,

Where abouts are they located?

I don't think the price is going to bother me to much because their insurance will be covering it

Thanks for your help :sleep:

Micolour in Cheltenham (03) 9555 8011. Mick painted some of my car for me and am very happy with the results.

Hey Fry,

Cool, thanks heaps :P, awesome news to hear your car turned out well!!

Colour is one thing that i'm kinda worried about, fixing the dent is one thing, but then getting the colour right so it doesn't stick out is a different kettle of fish eh :nyaanyaa:

Cheers,

Best regards,

Sean

      S1 Autech 260RS Wiring Diagrams

      By ARB26 · Posted

      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

      Tein Circuit Master- rebuild worth it?

      By QB6SAGR · Posted

      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 🍻
