Yeah, I was just testing the black bonnet to see how it would look. I don't think it needs it.

I already have the black/chrome lip SSRs ordered. Clear indicators are done.

Same front bar and similar sideskirts.

Will get a TRD wing (similar to that) and then a nice rear to finish off.

If I get bored with red then I'll do a full respray later on. Fitment/spray of just the kit will only be like $1000 or so.

Sounds like a plan :kiss:

I think I like it better than black on black.

Red with black wheels and polished lip = Nice!

Instead of creating another "what panel shop" thread, I'll ask here...

Where should I go to get the kit fitted and sprayed?

First priority is quick turnaround, because I need the car to get to work.

Should I trust DT Panels? :kiss: lawl.

dont man, get a respray based on quality

most companies can do a proper paintjob and fitment.... but it will cost

from what ive heard DT's does cheapish jobs for most people, if you spend the extra youll get a better job (yet i dunno 100% cause they arnt who i go to)

edit: and jezza dont get a quick job, make sure its done properly or expect to pay twice when it f**ks up a few years down the track

Try bayside autostyling. Think they are also cheap and from their project pictures it looks good. Go check them out. If you want a PROPER paintjob and bodykit fitment go see Sam at PAC.

I heard reallyyyy bad things about them, from a guy that used to work there and quit because of the way they treated the cars.

Apparently they just rip off door trims, chuck them on the ground etc....

And other people have told me that they did burnouts in the cars.

I dunno whether it's all true, but I guess they can't do much harm when fitting a kit.

They charge $1500 for a full respray (colour change) so bodykit fitment must be cheap as chips.

haha yea you said cheap so i suggested them, i wouldnt take my car to them lol. But seriously get a quote from Sam at PAC

what's wrong with the supra?

It's for sale. I have a maxed out credit card and $197 left in my bank account after wheel money is put aside.

And rego is coming up soon lol..

So basically I won't be spraying anything until the Supra is gone :kiss:

Niggaroj got quoted 10k by micolour for his r33 in the standard r33 black. now that woulod be quality

you'd be mad to do that unless its a fk off show car nobody needs a 10k paint job on a daily car. Especially when the car is worth 10k at best

is everything ready to go and have you got cash money ready to pay now? might ask our painter if he can fit in a job before we shut up shop.

1 day for dropoff/dismantling, 2 days for prep (if you're using fibreglass cos that shit never lines up), 1 day for paint, 1 day to reassemble. drop it off monday you'll have it on friday.

We're not cheap though.

"It's for sale. I have a maxed out credit card and $197 left in my bank account after wheel money is put aside."

I don't... we have a guy that does paint and panel at the shop, Shane. It's all he gets paid to do. He's currently finishing off all the outstanding jobs atm... including CR34M :kiss:

    • Hi guys, I’m new to the GTR scene. Picked up an R33 GTR earlier this year that needs a lot of love. I’ve been going through the hot side, changing all the gaskets and while it was all off I managed to score a set of -9s. It still had the stock ceramics so I was pretty happy to get the 2860s.  I live in a small country in the pacific with 0 performance car scene. No dyno’s no performance parts, let alone stock parts for a skyline. I order everything from Australia and do it myself. This means I’ll be running the stock ECU. Maybe down the track I’ll get an aftermarket set up and do a remote tune.  Will the car run -9s on stock tune safely?  I have a very heavy foot so I really hope so 😂   thanks guys   
    • perfect, no rush to address the leaking bush then, it's not doing much/anything
    • I'm not sure if it will bolt up, but.... I'm reasonably sure that the ID of the runners is somewhat smaller on the NAs. So it probably wouldn't be a good match at the flange where the top and bottom meet. So that would be a reason to not do it. And the skinny runners would be the bit you're keeping, which would be a reason to no do it. You'd want the big runners if you were doing any work to swap stuff. Why not just use what you've got, like nearly everyone else who has +T'd an NA? You don't need or want the TCS throttle or other stuff that is specifically DET inlet/crossover.
    • lol already been put in temporarily 3 years ago
    • Makes sense. For actuators, if the pressure itself isn't adjustable, that would mean I'd need to think about 2 different actuators with 2 different pressures on paper in order for them to work at the same time if the turbos behave differently. So measure the difference in psi needed to move both, and then get an actuator to match that difference. Assuming I cant get rid of it by adjusting the arms.  You're exactly right, never happens in gear 1 or 2. I can occasionally get it in gear 3 if going uphill but its very small. Only ever in 4 and 5. Seems kind of backwards that one of the points of VCAM is faster spool but if it introduces shuffle then it actually slows spool down.
