theres a retrimming place in mclaren vale that do a really good job and gove you the option of having things embroied into your seat at no extra cost (well they did for my mate) they do boats, cars whatever really but over all not a bad job.

price youd be looking between 1-2k depending on whats getting retrimmed and in what matrial etc.

as for airbrushing, i only know of one person in SA (doesnt mean theres only one though) his shop is called petes killa customs i think. dont know the number or anyhting just know his work.

cheers

oh and if petes isnt open try giving m&c doyles a call and talk to mike, im sure he would know someone

i would probably go for either Emtech Automotive (St Marys, South Rd) or Claudes Trim Shop (Pooraka)

and when you say interior....is that everything?

cause if it is 1-2k sounds too cheap and probably wont be a very good grade of leather.

Id go to west coast customs, they will put tv's in and xzibit will tell you that youve just been pimped too.

but seriously, +1 for Claude's, haven't used him yet but i have heard nothing but brilliant feedback

Hey Brad, are you the same guys that do most of Andy Steven's work at "Hyperformance Cycles"?

Yeah, I was there at millicent when your bike won the awards. What a joke that bike show was, if it wasnt for Hyperformance Cycles and the guys you were with, there would have been absolutely nothing there. Congratulations on your bike , everyone knows that bike. Its great to see that you have a damn fine taste it cars too though! :P

Thanks for that mate, I do remember you vaguely.

Yeah it was the Woodstock Extreme Moto Expo at Millicent and was run by Horn Promotions I think.....don't know much about them but I think they learnt their lesson about greed when it came to entry fee. Considering Bandit from Bikernet in LA was down for the judging, the high flying stunt riders performance and the sand drags, I did expect a bigger turn out for entrants and spectators.

Oh well, I suppose nothing compares to Bike Week on the Gold Coast........maybe the Bankstown NSW show comes close.

      Yeah, it's getting like that, my daughter is coming over on Thursday to help me remove the bonnet so I can install the Carbuilders underbonnet stuff,  I might get her to give me a hand and remove the hardtop, maybe, because on really hot days the detachable hardtop helps the aircon keep the interior cool, the heat just punches straight through to rag top I also don't have enough hair for the "wind in the hair" experience, so there is that....LOL

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      On BMWs what I do because I'm more confident that I can't instantly crush the pinch welds and do thousands of USD in chassis damage is use a set of rubber jacking pads designed to protect the chassis/plastic adapter and raise a corner of the car, place the aforementioned 2x12 inch wooden planks under a tire, drop the car, then this normally gives me enough clearance to get to the front central jack point. If you don't need it to be a ramp it only needs to be 1-1.5 feet long. On my R33 I do not trust the pinch welds to tolerate any of this so I drive up on the ramps. Before then when I had to get a new floor jack that no longer cleared the front lip I removed it to get enough clearance to put the jack under it. Once you're on the ramps once you simply never let the car down to the ground. It lives on the ramps or on jack stands.

      Nah. You need 2x taps for anything that you cannot pass the tap all the way through. And even then, there's a point in response to the above which I will come back to. The 2x taps are 1x tapered for starting, and 1x plug tap for working to the bottom of blind holes. That block's port is effectively a blind hole from the perspective of the tap. The tapered tap/tapered thread response. You don't ever leave a female hole tapered. They are supposed to be parallel, hence the wide section of a tapered tap being parallel, the existince of plug taps, etc. The male is tapered so that it will eventually get too fat for the female thread, and yes, there is some risk if the tapped length of the female hole doesn't offer enough threads, that it will not lock up very nicely. But you can always buzz off the extra length on the male thread, and the tape is very good at adding bulk to the joint.
