Gold Star Metal Finishers

41(A) chapman Rd

Hackham 5163

81863311

They do 3layer chroming not sure on prices but will be paying them a visit during the week :D

+1 Gold Star

When I built the bike last year I tried a few people around Adelaide........Don't go out north for for any chroming, I had a bad experience out there with bubbling & pitting.

Other than Gold Star I would send my stuff to a mob in Melbourne.

Depends how fussy you are at the end of the day.....I wanted a finish that would win shows.

No... i just dropped off my timing cover to be chromed on North East Rd.

I was thinking of getting other stuff done later, so I'll check out Gold Star next time.

hey 4door, dont know about that NE mob......the mob I had trouble with were right out north, but having said that, they refunded 85% of my money and acknowledged the work was shocking so I suppose I forgive them but you know what they say, "once bitten twice shy".

    • Actually, if having and keeping the stock ECU is the plan, the correct answer is to put Nistune into the ECU and improve the situation, not just look at it.
    • Wrong side of sydney for me coming from Goulburn, but you should head along, all ages of Skylines will be very welcome
    • Yeah so physically that port is consult not OBD2, but also be aware that "JODB" is not really a thing - it came in around 2000(ish) but is not a standard like ODB is, each manufacturer had differences. If you are looking at ECU only and have a standard ECU, go with Datascan as Turbo Tapin said. Per another recent discussion here thought that won't do other systems like in a modern car, for example bleeding ABS
    • They're not rebuilt Racepace items. They were mint. From memory the were ex display stock that I bought off yahoo and he ran....from memory he barely used the REs when he replaced them with a set of Tein RS If have been stored correctly and not leaked fluid then they will be mint   As an observation the Racebuilt rebuilt Tein RA/RE/RS were a better street/club/track package. Really nice on the street and did good numbers at the track.  I think the factory Teins wont match the Racepace valving on the street but would be in the same window of performance on the track... albeit firmer
