id rather just buy dry ice and remove the dents myself :down:

Always makes me smile. Don't forget your hair dryer, magnets and special ball bearings either..... oh and a magic wand :blink:

I got a dent on my door, do I have to remove my door trim? there's like 4 layers of sound deadening & foam sheets on it LOL

99% of the time we can fix door dents without having to remove any trims, if its in a difficult spot there's a chance we may need to pull the trim off, we'll cross that bridge when we come to it.

Im in for this...i have a couple of dents on the roof thanks to a tree branch..would i need to remove roof lining ?

Generally tree branches cause pretty sharp dents so its(roof lining) probably going to need to come out, we can glue pull some dents, however, using tools to push the dents out is faster and gives a better finish.

We'll check it out on the day, if it needs to come out I'm sure there will be plenty of willing helpers to get it out. When I say pulled out, I mean all we need is the lining dropped down it doesn't have to be pulled from the car unless you want to strip it out and drive the car there without it in.

Once the dent is repaired, if there is minor damage to the paint(usually there are some scratches or the paint can be squashed where it impacts) we can't fix that. We can give it a cut and buff to reduce the scratch but there will always be a very minor mark, you probably won't be able to see it but we are very particular about our work and always want it to be 100%. Again this will all be explained before we begin the repair.

Cheers Matt.

    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
    • Well they got my money but they are not getting my gearbox ! 
    • It's needed for rolling idle up, and I think it is a decider on VCT also.
    • I mean, not really. Link ECU's can absolutely still have errors from the ECU thinking it's getting a sensor it's not expecting. I would imagine the speed at the ECU level in Nistune does absolutely nothing anyway? I assume the ECU does not do any fancy TC stuff with regards to front+rear wheel speed or anything of that like anyway. Someone who uses Nistune may be more fluent in it.
