Hey guys, tryed looking for the topic in the SA section with the powder coaters but cant seem to find it anymore, does anyone know any good Cheapish power coaters in adelaide? im on a budget at the moment so ill be spending around 150-200ish maxs.

Marshall Powder Coaters

16 Wingfield Rd, Wingfield, SA 5013

p: (08) 83471241 f: (08) 83474214

in fact, a basic google search gives you the info your after. youll just have to ring around for quotes!

AAA Powdercoaters in Losdale - haven't used them yet, BUT they do their own blasting and coating, whereas many will outsource the blasting making it more expensive. Have been quoted $40 per rim blast & coat :whistling:

these guys are the guys to see tho:

Edwardstown Powdercoating

9 Lagunta Ave Edwardstown SA 5039

very professional, great work, and the cheapest when i called around. the guys down there have a few imports for themselves, last i checked i think one had a S7 RX7 and the other a 34 GTR if i remember right. good bunch of blokes, the sandblaster guys they were using for my wheels f**ked up, but instead of the powdercoaters wiping their hands clean they went out of pocket and made sure i went away happy, even though it wasnt even the powdercoaters fault they went missing.

i have reccomended quite a few people to these people and they have always walked away happy with the results, and extremely happy with the price.

maybe not a great example as these were dirty at the time but heres my GT-P's i got done black:

Can't recommend Les Thompson enough!! Had 2 sets of wheels recently sandblasted and powdercoated (centre's only) and I was charged $25 per wheel...I had to ask again as I thought I mis heard the price. Extremel happy with the end result and customer service, wheels were also finished in less then 1 week.

Les Thompson : 0412795818 or : 83511133

33 Kent Rd, Keswick (near busfrieght)

**both sets of wheels will be for sale shortly aswell.

Is that price just to blast and coat centres? Reason I ask is if it would surely be different for a complete rim as the surface area would easily double if you're coating the inner of the rim, not just centre spokes.

    • 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! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • 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.
