Well I just got a quote from All Type Crash, they said 300 to paint my (brand new fiberglass) front bar and $50 an hour to fit. I'm hoping its going to fit pretty well and won't take longer than 2 hours. How does that quote compare with your experiences guys?

Th catch is the fitting time

When I replaced my front bar recently we went through 4 of them before we found one the workshop were happy to spend time fitting (the others required too much work)

All of the bars we ordered were NEW fiberglass from supposedly reputable bar manufacturers (there were several companies we wouldn't even look at). Given the choice I would have ordered plastic from the manufacturer, but that wasn't an option.

Power FC, injectors, Z32 airflow meter, braided brake lines, RDA rotors, EBC red stuff pads, aluminium radiator, nismo radiator cap and silicon radiator hoses.

I think that is all for now. :)

Hahaha thats awesome Shaun

Rhys you can roughly expect 170-180rwkw at boostworx

(this figure is based on another guy here that made that power no mods)

you guys are welcome for the group buys and building relations with traders, when you get an alarm Rhys foot forget to mention sau for your discount

as for painting stuff i saw our other recommended alarm installer and he gave me the card to a guy up the road from him i will give him a call and see how he pulls up on price

nice mate, any particular turbo you have in mind?

Also, where are you getting your alloy radiator? Im thinkin the same thing.

I have the MSPEC Radiator that is in the group buy section but i bought it from an adelaide distributor for the same price as he is selling them for.

I bought mine From Car Torque Products in Kent Town i think they are located.

Not sure whether they are getting more of them in though.

I will hopefully be looking at either a HKS GTRS, Garrett GT3582, Garrett 3071 or a TD06 20G.

Not sure which way i am going yet as it depends on funds and the girlfriend as to how far i can go. I am hopefully aiming at 280+ rwkw, but that is quite far away as the next stage of mods i am still pricing them up as i will be changing quite a few parts to make the car easier to work on and give better throttle response. Eg forward facing plenum ect

wow lol and i thought i was bad hahaha

im hoping to get my boot done, new front seats, bit of interior re trimming :bunny:

Just wanted to give a big thumbs up to Ricc @ Auto Perfection! :D:ermm::)

Had 20% tint done on the legnum windows & alarm installed on Tuesday. Excellent job, 2nd to none customer service. Great guy and great job - very happy! :D

*note: price was also fantastic thanks to Steve's negotiating skills :)

+1 more from me.

awesome bloke, quote me $470 for my alarm and amp install, cleaned up all the dodgy wiring from previous installs, ended up costing a bit more, but it was quality work, all looks factory. the alarm cancelled out my factory boot release switch, so he offered to wire in a new relay (to run off the alarm remote) next time i booked the car in, and get my bonnet struts regassed at the rates he gets them. :D

basically, the dudes f**kin awesome :D

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
