couldnt agree more with all of this andrew. Joe and John are very good prices. im getting the body work done and the car resprayed in a different colour for less than some places quoted to do just the bodywork :blink:

anyone know if i can use r32 brake pads in r33?
Rears definately can, and Im 99% the front you can too.

i would of thought even if they fit they wont be utilising the surface area of the R33's larger front Rotor, as Dion said rears are fine

...What if I can source a RB26 Head, and swap it for 1 of your RB25 Heads?...or how easy is it for a RB26 Head to go on a RB25 Block?

EDIT: Thought I could source a RB26 head, but I can't unless I do a bit more searching, but how easy/hard is it to bolt a RB26 Head on?

      Rusty roof repair

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      Nah that is not actually a lot. Just painting my GTR frontend and the little bits to make sideskirts/nismo flare pieces work correctly/fit on the sedan/mount up correctly came to about $7000. Is it a lot? Sure. None of this is economical. Economy would be shelling the car and buying a 2010 Corolla to commute in. The perspective of all of this is different.

      Rusty roof repair

      I don't see any issues here. I've been saying all along this is a big job, the price reflects that.  When the car comes back perfect I'm sure it will feel like money well spent.

      Remember, take original quote. Double it. Then add a bit more. It's how any project goes.

      Rusty roof repair

      By PranK · Posted

      So, I started this repair and got as far as "fixing" the holes with some fibreglass. God all those years working on boats came back quickly. I decided I'd reach out to some rust guys just to see what they would say about it. I came across a guy about 40 mins away and went to see him. He said the windscreen needs to come out, that there might be some more bits around the windscreen and he'd quote them at the time. But his quote was $300 to remove and replace windscreen and $3k for the damage he can see. He said he could respray the roof for $1200 and the bonnet for another $800 (somebody has previously rattle canned it, its horrendous). This is $5300 + any small additional bits. It's a lot, I get that and the name of one of my fave youtube channels 'Not Economically Viable' comes to mind.  I'm not being financially rational, but I've taken him up on the quote. He's opening a new shop in November with more room, so we're waiting for that. I'll leave the currently missing headliner out until then. I'm looking forward to it being fixed and having the paint looking nice again (lots of clear coat issues on the roof too). / flame suit on.
