I know this has already been discussed on here but i'll be stuffed sideways if i can locate the thread!

Now my dilema is that i have a set of 17" 5zigen rims which are chrome....i like the shape of em but not the chrome.....what i am after is, does anyone know of a good place located on the north shore/northern beaches that powder coat wheels.....also can change the colour of em to a dark grey / black..ie Lenso Musa style!

I need them to be fixed up a little..ie some scratches on outer rims need fixing up aswell!!

If anyone has had this done and preferably in the area stated plz post em and a rough price that it cost!!

Cheers

Ando

Tosh...mate, cheers!!!!!!!... i finally realise you are good for something;) :cheers: j/k's.....cheers heaps for that i wil get onto them and see what they can do!!!!

BTW has anyone had dealings with any of these companies? If so which do you recommend?

Ando

Memphis u got any pics of the wheels? How much does it cost roughly per rim to get this 2pac ( lol :cheers: sorry couldnt resist ) 2Pak rather, painted?

I'll do some calling around see what prices i can get....compare em to WA :D

Cheers

Ando

Powder coat is a lot tougher than 2pac, something to consider since wheels will get abused a lot more than your panels. ie, gutter scrapes, replacing tyres and wheel weights, even just taking them off and scratching them with the wheel brace.

Does powder coating involve some sort of clear protective coat on the top? I don't want to get my wheels powder coated any colour, I just want the gutter scrap repaired and put some sort of clear coat on the top to give it that 'new' finish.

Have any of you done this? How much did it cost approx?

    • I guess one thing that might be wrong is the manifold pressure.  It is a constant -5.9 and never moves even under 100% throttle and load.  I would expect it to atleast go to 0 correct?  It's doing this with the OEM MAP as well as the ECU vacuum sensor. When trying to tune the base map under load the crosshairs only climb vertically with RPM, but always in the -5.9 column.
    • AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.
    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.  
    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
