Got some rust on the top plates of my strut towers and a few spots on the underbody that might need cleaning/bogging or even cutting/welding too.. Can anyone recommend someone in Sydney for this type of work that won't overcharge and will do a good job?

I only know of good mechanics but the 2 panel beaters I've been to in the past are complete kunts so I don't want to go back there. Any recommendations ? Cheers

Hey mate,

Give these guys a call

Louie at Xclusive colours - Smithfield 0413 581 009

My GTR is there now getting the bay done and a bit of rust removed from the strut top. He does a great job and he doesnt charge much for his time.

or

Andy at Complete Smash - Kirawee 0415 894 169

Andy did a full retore on a mates Valiant, top work and his attention to detail is amazing. again he doenst charge much for his time and does a good job.

Cheers,

Johno

i smacked my s15 a few days ago.

and my excess is probably the same as fixing it private..

Any reasonable shops around Hills area?

Basically i need the front fixed, i will supply my own front bar, side fenders, headlights, bonnet and things that the panel beater would tell me that i am missing..

      Tein Circuit Master- rebuild worth it?

      By QB6SAGR · Posted

      Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻

      Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”

      Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2

      Yes it is ATF. I quote @Duncan "it takes a good synthentic auto trans fluid like Castrol Transmax Z" It's not a diff. It's a transfer case. Totally different thing. Yes, fluid will come out the sender hole. No you do not really need to drain it. Just pull the old, quickly poke the new, clean up and top up. But realistically, you should probably take the opportunity to change it anyway.
