Hey everyone,

Well my brother hit the flat part of a gutter with one of his volks and bent the lip of the wheel in a bit and the usual gutter rash crap.

Anyways been searching all day and all the other shops in old threads have closed. (except for that one in thornleigh, which is a last resort)

One shop wants to charge $350 to repair it alone, I told him to F*** off.

I dont want to get the wheel sprayed just repaired. I will get it powdercoated later myself.

If anyone can tell me somewhere to go it will be much appreciated.

Thanks,

David

haven't used them but got some rough quotes with excellent prices and have heard nothing but excellent reviews. Only thing is that you need to take the tyre off and just drop off the rim/s. They do a lot of rims/wheels but they do all type of repairs and are not a wheel place.

Think they're still there. Got a quote a couple months ago for all 4 to fix gutter rash and powdercoat any colour for around 800. think its a good price but havent shopped around.

Didnt end up getting it done due to no money :D lol

They fixed my old TE37 when I bent it hard. I can't remember how much he charged, but considering a few places said it was unrepairable it was still better value than buying a new wheel.

Hey mate.

I took my buckled wheel to magman punchbowl, it was pretty bad due to a accident.

Got it fixed for $120 only thing was that he couldn't get the inner lip 100% because there was no room for tools to get in.

The wheel was a 3 piece and the centre was too hard to take apart.

Regarless I'm happy with the job

Take it down there and see what he says

yeah magman is pretty cheap .. quoted $200 to fix severe gutter rash on 2 of my wheels. He was quite busy when I went ..like a 2 week wait so I never ended up doing it. Might give him a call soon and book it in.

Does anyone know if cast wheels that have been slightly buckled from hitting a curb can be fixed?? When I had my wheels balanzed by JAX they said one of the wheels couldn't be perfectly balanced with weights due to it but that it wasn't serious.. just that it was always a little unbalanced

I smashed two of my wheels once, the front one looked like pacman after it crunched the gutter.

Both came back like brand new. Couldnt believe they fixed them.

They were 2 piece Volk GTP.

Done at Spot On wheels near Dapto.

      Quieter performance exhausts (or muffler add-on options)

      By f00stx · Posted

      So, I've had my V36 for about a month now and have already copped an "excessive exhaust noise" notification from QLD TMR, reported by someone in my local area. It's a twin as per the original, and can have a bit of a throaty note to it when idling cold 😄 and if I do get up it a bit, it can be noisy, but it did pass a roadworthy inspection before sale, so.... ... but in the interest of being a good neighbour, I do want to quieten it down a bit. Is anyone here running a quiet aftermarket cat-back on their V36 or 370Z? And the big, bold question: does an aftermarket cat-back really make much of a performance difference on these cars?

      The wiring diagram for the R33 RB25 is freely available, and is essentially the same same as most other RBs (just with differences as to which pin # does which job). To get the ECU to power up, you just need to provide power to the ECCS relay, and have the other power feeds that come in from the top left of the wiring diagram (wrt the ECU) that give perma power to the fuel pump relay, the ECU itself, etc etc, all connected. When you put power on all these it will just come to life. It's pretty clear from the diagram what needs to happen. Just follow the lines from the 12V + supply stuff in the top left over towards the ECU. I've even posted snips of such diagrams (not for vanilla 25, I think for Neo and 26) to various threads here in the last few months, talking about what it takes to get the fuel pump and FPCM up and going. Search these up and they will help get you started on doing the same with the vanilla 25 diagram. Hell, for all I know, I've done the same with that one in years past and have forgotten.

      Yep...so unless someone posts up the answer you will need to probe from the ECU connector to the dash plug with a multi meter in continuity mode to trace the wires.  Note the ECU has multiple - and + (and across different key settings - Battery, IGN and Start) and most likely the power is fed from the connector(s) that is normally near the left hand headlight.

      Thanks Duncan, I am actually just trying to get the Rb turning and running with the RB25DET S2 original loom itself  I am just trying to get it going outside the body and not thinking about the S15 or trying to match anything to the S15 loom at all I am only trying to see if anyone has done this and what pin they found to be the ignition trigger and ECU+/- on the dash connector, that's about it. Thanks

      M35 VQ25DET starter motor

      By iain_ST44GA · Posted

      Hi Guys, Does anyone know any aftermarket part numbers for a starter motor to suit the VQ25DET? I can find lots of alternative part number for the VQ35DE, which I assume would fit, but there is a lot of conflicting information out there. Thanks..
