Spunkey Munkey had his wing sprayed there. Job looks pretty decent. Shouldn't have any problems with them i reckon.

Their workshop is pretty hard to find. It's at the back of this milk bar place along a main road. You won't see any sign or whatsoever like ' primal garage ' . Best to ring them up to let them guide you there.

Highly doubt it Matt, there's bit's and pieces of it all over Melbourne at the moment :huh:

Gearbox is getting done as we speak, as is the engine bay prep, and the engine is ready to go. It's just getting it all back together now...

I'd love to go to Winton though, if not only to see what you and Ray have going on now! :/

Hehehe. My car is slow. Ray is the one to watch.. have you heard his wastegate? fark i wouldn't be surprise if the guys at eastern creek could hear it :)

Looking forward to seeing you on the track again, I'm hoping to at least improve my times at Winton in Feb!

I don't believe you... :)

I see lots of part selling, which equals lots of new part buying haha I'm hanging to get back out there again, it's been way too long!

Is Ray's car back up and running again? I'll have to pop past and check it out/sabotage it :D

Stolen_S15: Just thought I'd let ya know that Primal did a top job on my car, couldn't be happier.

Two thumbs up from me!

Cheers Dane,

I'm hoping to pick my bar up today or early next week. Was yours the 180 that was in there getting sprayed, widebody? SAU stickers and what not on it?

Yep, that's the one. The 180 that's in a million pieces... :D

SNISMO: They were doing mechanical work while I was there.

Yeah they are happy to do minor mech. work.

I'll be picking up my bar in the next day or so, i'll let you all know what the work is like.

Could someone please post up some contact details for Primal Garage ?

Ask and you will receive...

David and Neil do all the mechanical work, i.e. electrical, suspension, engine work etc.

And they're father, Ray, I call him Uncle Ray - does all the panel and paint work...

They're a nice bunch of people, down-to-earth and very helpful...

Say Kevin with the r33 Skyline and Ray will look after ya as I got there all the time...

    • Here is the mess that I made. That filler there was successful in filling dents in that area. But in the middle area. I can feel dents. And I've gone ocer it multiple times with filler. And the filler is no longer there because i accidently sanded it away. I've chased my tail on this job but this is something else lol. So I'm gonna attempt filler one more time and if it doesn't work I'll just high fill primer the door and see where the issues are because guidecoat is of no use atm.
    • Ok, so I think I sort of figured out where I went wrong. So I definitely overthinked it, and I over sanded, which is probably a large part of the problem. to fix it, I ended up tapping some spots that were likely to be high, made them low, filled them in, and I tackled small sections at a time, and it feels a lot better.    I think what confused me as well is you have the bare metal, and some spots darker and some are lighter, and when I run my finger across it, it' would feel like it's a low spot, but I think it's just a transition in different texture from metal to body filler.    When your finger's sliding on the body filler, and crosses over to the bare metal, going back and forth, it feels like it's a low spot. So I kept putting filler there and sanding, but I think it was just a transition in texture, nothing to do with the low or high spot. But the panel's feels a lot better, and I'm just going to end up priming it, and then I'll block it after with guide coat.   Ended up wasting just about all of my filler on this damn door lol  
    • -10 is plenty for running to an oil cooler. When you look at oil feeds, like power steering feeds, they're much smaller, and then just a larger hose size to move volume in less pressure. No need for -12. Even on the race cars, like Duncans, and endurance cars, most of them are all running -10 and everything works perfectly fine, temps are under control, and there's no restrictions.
    • Update: O2 sensor in my downpipe turned out to be faulty when I plugged in to the Haltech software. Was getting a "open circuit" warning. Tons of carbon buildup on it, probably from when I was running rich for a while before getting it corrected. Replaced with new unit and test drove again. The shuffle still happens, albeit far less now. I am not able to replicate it as reliably and it no longer happens at the same RPM levels as before. The only time I was able to hear it was in 5th going uphill and another time in 5th where there was no noticeable incline but applying more throttle first sped it up and then cleared it. Then once in 4th when I slightly lifted the throttle going over a bump but cleared right after. My understanding is that with the O2 sensor out, the ECU relies entirely on the MAP tune and isn't able to make its small adjustments based on the sensors reading. All in all, a big improvement, though not the silver bullet. Will try validating the actuators are set up correctly, and potentially setting up shop time to tune the boost controller on closed loop rather than the open loop it is set to now. Think if it's set up on closed loop to take the O2 reading, that should deal with these last bits. Will try to update again as I go. 
    • More so GReddy oil relocation kits, sandwich plates, etc. all use 10AN fittings. And same, I've only used 10AN and my car sees track work (circuit, doing laps, not 10 sec squirt business).
