We pulled ryans car out of there today. IT LOOKS AWESOME!

There are a lot of skylines etc in there at the moment.

Mike really does do great work down there.

Don't tell me there is no more 2 tone on the 180!!?

Mick has done my engine bay (its a bit dusty here)

I dont hesitate to reccomend him to people at all, and im constantly going back with more work of my own to be done :rofl:

Bah!, so much for an unveiling!

I will take some good photos tommorow, i didnt leave till after dark, so no good pics. Mick is very picky, thourough and skilled! the amount of attention to detail is fantastic! If anyone had looked at my car before it was painted it was far from straight! and not quite one colour... Now it looks better than new!

The car will be sandown on sunday if you want to see it up close...

I wouldn't use anyone else

My car is there at the moment getting the SHMICKO LIQUID GOLD treatment :rofl:

Give them a call and ask for SHMICKO!

Top work, top bloke, top facility!

I had some of my car painted by Mick at Micolour. Very happy with the results and after spending a little bit of time down there you see how he goes that extra mile to get things right and not just slap it together.

There is a bit extra info and some pics Here

Good luck with it where ever you go though.

    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
    • If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
    • Lock me in mate, although I'm not sure if I'll be heading up from Goulburn or down from Sydney, either way, return will be back to Goulburn
