Hi All,

Just thougt I'd share my experience...

I wanted to give my car a freshen up, as the paint want in the best nick and was annoying me. So after some research and the help of SAU I found Vu (evilsub) from DT Panels in Springvale.

Went down to see him and chatted about what I wanted and what his thoughts were about the car and got the ball rolling. I have to say that dealing with Vu was a pleasure, its good to finally meet someone in the car business who's not a money hungry idiot for once. Everything was exactly as he said it would be, and I think they did an amazing job.

My car was black.... and I decided to change it to VW R32 Deep Pearl Blue and added GTR front bar, as I didnt want anything too wild, also decided I'd get rid of the spoiler while I was at it.

Anyways,

Here are some pics of the whole thing,

This is before - kinda looks like its good for parts!

Looks awesome! Vu and the team down at DT Panels do great work every time!

In fact my car is down there right now getting the DT treatment :D I'm going to pick it up later today woohoo!

I'd recommend people who are looking for work done go to speak with Vu because he's a real perfectionist with his work and shares a love of cars like us too ;)

CEF11E Haha - told you they would look ok :P

I've seen that blue GTR in the Dandenong area, thats not me though, in the flesh my car is darker, thats more a bayside blue (and not a GTR :down: )

Thanks for the comments, when I went to pick the car up my jaw just fell open... I was like um wow

As for Vu doing it all for so cheap, I dunno either, but i'll keep seeing him while his work is this good!

Cheers

    • Am I correct in assuming that the R35's are getting the classic skyline haircut off the odometer?  Quick search on carsales, there are 33 08 and 09 GTR's for sale, only 2 of them have more then 100,000km's on them (116,075 and 110,000 respectively).  And somehow there are about 25 for sale with around 60,000kms? Looks like the classic skyline haircut to me =/
    • @Stringycheese  Have you only gone to the one blue slip workshop?  There will be a heap of them where ever you live, good odds that the next place you go to will pass the car.  Unfortunately (or fortunately?) every blue slip / engineering workshop will be different and will be happy passing or failing different things - despite working from the same set of rules. It's kinda like 2 lawyers arguing over a piece of legislation, each saying their interpretation is correct. Might seem strange that this happens when it comes to getting a modified car passed, but this is very much a thing. A big part of the game is finding an engineer / workshop that is on the same page as you.
    • Bah. I daily mine. ~60km per work day, 10-12 thousand km per year. What's the point of having a dirty old Datto and leaving it in the shed. It needs to be driven and enjoyed while the govco allows us to do so. It will only be a few years before we're forbidden to even start up internal combustion engines.
    • Judging by that spring perch and the normal looking spring on it - not a coilover. Well.... it is a coilover, just a stock format coilover, rather than what everyone calls a coilover.
    • Yes it is. We get stock from Nismo directly. I'm happy to take photos/video of it as proof before I ship it with timestamps or whathaveyou.
