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?

    • Hi GTSBoy, Excuse my ignorance but what does a "Bad" Knee point mean ? 
    • HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.
    • The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.
    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
