cheers

Try either Doyles (Edwardstown) or Daniel Stone Spray Painting (Hackham near that Classic Performance dyno shop).

Doyles: Expensive, but have had many mates go through there with cars to remove dents, full resprays, minor resprays, guard rolling, etc and they do a pretty decent job. They match up the colour basically perfectly and comes up nicely. Just drive down there and speak to them.

Daniel Stone: Ruby recommended him. Might want to PM him.

There's another place at Edwardstown that, fro,m memory, Fishpaste or Luke-Enr34 used? I can't remember the name though. Might want to PM them.

Up North, you'd be looking at All Type Crash.

just incase people didn't realise but 99.9% of all problems people have with their cars has all been covered in a massive section called 'Modifications & Maintenance' on the main page. Which is quite useful if you perform a search on that section. The moderators know what they are talking about aswell. If anyone needs any information about where to go to get something fixed we have another section called 'Workshop & Autoparts Listing' which is our own sticky in the SA section.

Spot on Ryan;

I think that there are a fair few people in the SA section that never look past it's "boarders".

I had my rims done by Daniel Stone Spray Painting, he does a great job at a good price. if i was getting a respray he would be the guy i would get to do it.

sorry Adrian but we don't want to be sifting thru more car related issues that have already been covered in other threads (SEARCH is your friend).

Threads like this that aren't specific to any one particular problem are just a nightmare when it comes to searching thru it.

So on Ryan's & Dale's note......thread closed.

    • I drive the Tiguan much harder than the Skyline in all conditions, because it just grips and hooks, unlike the R33 shit box
    • The rain is the best time to push to the edge of the grip limit. Water lubrication reduces the consumption of rubber without reducing the fun. I take pleasure in driving around the outside of numpties in Audis, WRXs, BRZs, etc, because they get all worried in the wet. They warm up faster than the engine oil does.
    • When they're dead cold, and in the wet, they're not very fun. RE003 are alright, they do harden very quickly and turn into literally $50 Pace tyres.
    • Yeah, I thought that Reedy's video was quite good because he compared old and new (as in, well used and quite new) AD09s, with what is generally considered to be the fast Yokohama in this category (ie, sporty road/track tyres) and a tyre that people might be able to use to extend the comparo out into the space of more expensive European tyres, being the Cup 2. No-one would ever agree that the Cup 2 is a poor tyre - many would suggest that it is close to the very top of the category. And, for them all to come out so close to each other, and for the cheaper tyre in the test to do so well against the others, in some cases being even faster, shows that (good, non-linglong) tyres are reaching a plateau in terms of how good they can get, and they're all sitting on that same plateau. Anyway, on the AD08R, AD09, RS4 that I've had on the car in recent years, I've never had a problem in the cold and wet. SA gets down to 0-10°C in winter. Not so often, but it was only 4°C when I got in the car this morning. Once the tyres are warm (ie, after about 2km), you can start to lay into them. I've never aquaplaned or suffered serious off-corner understeer or anything like that in the wet, that I would not have expected to happen with a more normal tyre. I had some RE003s, and they were shit in the dry, shit in the wet, shit everywhere. I would rate the RS4 and AD0x as being more trustworthy in the wet, once the rubber is warm. Bridgestone should be ashamed of the RE003.
    • This is why I gave the disclaimer about how I drive in the wet which I feel is pretty important. I have heard people think RS4's are horrible in the rain, but I have this feeling they must be driving (or attempting to drive) anywhere close to the grip limit. I legitimately drive at the speed limit/below speed the limit 100% of the time in the rain. More than happy to just commute along at 50kmh behind a train of cars in 5th gear etc. I do agree with you with regards to the temp and the 'quality' of the tyre Dose. Most UHP tyres aren't even up to temperature on the road anyway, even when going mad initial D canyon carving. It would be interesting to see a not-up-to-temp UHP tyre compared against a mere... normal...HP tyre at these temperatures. I don't think you're (or me in this case) is actually picking up grip with an RS4/AD09 on the road relative to something like a RE003 because the RS4/AD09 is not up to temp and the RE003 is closer to it's optimal operating window.
