$600 is way too much

Get them and take them into a local panel shop, be realy nice to the guys in there and just say to one of the guys working that you will give him personally (not the shop, but the worker) $300 if he paints your covers in JWO after hours and there's no rush on the job

I agree, $600 is way too much and N1GTR has the right idea about approaching a painter in your local panel shop. For $600 you're probably still getting used covers that are just repainted. In korea I can get my RB26 covers painted at a panel shop for ~$250 USD so I'm sure you can get it for about the same in Aus. It's expensive in japan to buy newly painted covers.

Prices for Nissan OEM Painted brand new covers from Japan...

Black

Rocker cover EX side $219 USD

Rocker cover IN side $219 USD

Rocker Ornament cover $263 USD

Front cam pulley cover $315 USD

Red

Rocker cover EX side $210 USD

Rocker cover IN side $210 USD

Rocker ornament cover $242 USD

Front cam pulley cover $125 USD

Gold

Rocker cover EX side $305 USD

Rocker cover IN side $305 USD

Rocker ornament cover ???

Front cam pulley cover $181 USD

I would expect JWO to be more expensive... just to give you an idea.

Go and see Mick at Micolour, He has done plenty.

And well priced too.

I THINK its around $110ish a piece to paint maybe a touch more, you would have to check with mick.

And he is able to remove them off the car and reinstall if required,

although taking in just the pieces is easyer

    • Yep, the closest base tune available was for the GTT, I went with that and made all the logical changes I could find to convert it to Naturally Aspirated. It will rev fine in Neutral to redline but it will be cutting nearly 50% fuel the whole way.  If I let it tune the fuel map to start with that much less fuel it wont run right and has a hard time applying corrections.  These 50% cuts are with a fuel map already about half of what the GTT tune had.  I was having a whole lot of bogging when applying any throttle but seem to have fixed that for no load situations with very aggressive transient throttle settings. I made the corrections to my injectors with data I found for them online, FBCJC100 flowing 306cc.  I'll have to look to see if I can find the Cam section. I have the Bosch 4.9 from Haltech. My manifold pressure when watching it live is always in -5.9 psi/inHg
    • Hi My Tokico BM50 Brake master cylinder has a leak from the hole between the two outlets (M10x1) for brake pipes, I have attached a photo. Can anyone tell me what that hole is and what has failed to allow brake fluid to escape from it, I have looked on line and asked questions on UK forums but can not find the answer, if anyone can enlighten me I would be most grateful.
    • It will be a software setting. I don't believe many on here ever used AEM. And they're now a discontinued product,that's really hard to find any easy answers on. If it were Link or Haltech, someone would be able to just send you a ECU file though.
    • Yes sir am asking is there possible way from aem tuner from wiring pins 
    • Have you checked cam to crank timing and confirmed balancer marks are correct?
