Hi all,

I am looking at getting my R33 re-sprayed. I just want it resprayed black the same colour it already is. The paint isn't in pefect condition and I want it to look like new.

Know of any good paint shops around hobart?

I might attempt it myself after some practive, I have all the gear and have sprayed one of my old cars but I think my wants exceed my tallent.

My girlfriend goes to Uni ever week in Launny so I could bring it up but the car isn't running at the moment, I need to get it dyno tunes, intercooler piping made, a few other things. The car hasn't really been running for over 6 months, I have been working on a new engine setup (RB30DET) heavilly modified and going for 300+RWKW with a track/street setup so fairly responcive. The project has been running for some time but I am very close to finishing.

I am going on holiday to QLD in a week so I am looking at getting the car finished early to mid next month. But if you could give me a rough price that would be great, The car's paint at the moment is pretty good its just copped a few stone chips around the place and being that we have been working on it for 6 months people have dropped tools over the front guards etc. There are also a few minor dents, but they are very small. It's Black at the moment and I want the same colour but to but I was thinking to make it look less like a stock paint job maybe like a custom black or a nice perl black or something. The bonnet is carbon fiber so that doesn't need to be sprayed.

Isn't SLY-032 from TasCommodores?

      S15 Spec R

      By RP1421 · Posted

      A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always!

      R33 Fuel Pump & Brakes after alarm swap

      By Jarsky · Posted

      Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
