Havn't heard of any of these guys.

I think I'll give them a go (if you think they are the original and the best), if they botch it up I'll just get the whole panel re sprayed.

Also I've used one of these paintless dent removal guys in the past. I had a dent right on the crease of one of my panels, and was absolutely amazed at the quality of the job he did. I could not pick it at all, it was perfect (with no damage to the paint).

If anyone want's his details let me know.

For dents iv used The Dent man at castle hill call him on 9894 5533.

He is located at 46/2 Hoyle Ave Castle Hill. He is also Mobile

For scratches iv used a mobile guy called Paintfix his name is Nathan You can contact him on 0402 720 130.

He does an excellent job and doesn't charge alot for his services.

Both of these guys are the best in the business, coming from a detailing background, i know who to use and who doesn't charge alot, and most importantly they do they job properly.

Thanks for that,

Does Nathan really do that good a job? What's he like at mixing the paint colour to match? as my car is metalic and the last guy did a pretty crap job of matching the paint colour.

Yeah Nathan does a great job, he comes from a panel beating/spray painting background. It depends where the scratch is, sometimes if its on a door, its best to respray the whole door or side to match it. Silver is one of the hardest colours to match, it may look good in some light and in other lights you may see shadows. nathan has done a few cars for me and everytime they have been perfect and im really happy with them. He mixes the paint up in his van with the colour code from your car. It would be best to give him a call and see what he says, he may be able to give you a quote over the phone or come out and see it first.

I just had some touch up work done on a Mini Copper S i just sold & the colour was hard to match & blend without painting the whole bumper, Touchupguys.com.au Steve did a great job & i was impressed, i would recommend them.

      RB25DE NEO with Haltech ECU

      By Haggerty · Posted

      I guess one thing that might be wrong is the manifold pressure.  It is a constant -5.9 and never moves even under 100% throttle and load.  I would expect it to atleast go to 0 correct?  It's doing this with the OEM MAP as well as the ECU vacuum sensor. When trying to tune the base map under load the crosshairs only climb vertically with RPM, but always in the -5.9 column.

      AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.

      As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.

      spot the stagea

      By AnimalGarage · Posted

      It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack.

      Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
