cost of respraying and etc....

[AkEaKe]

Hi...... I have questions that I don't know where I can ask except here

1. If I have a car and I want it to respray, how much does it cost for foing it? For example, FC3S

2. according to 1), if i change its color, is it hard to tell the officer for changing the new color and how much does it cost for telling the change???

3. If I go to a garage and tell them to change its engine to a new one, is it hard to tell the change to officer? My friend told me that it is very hard because there have to be an engineer who garuntee the engine change and etc. and how much does it cost for the change????

4. How much does it cost for RWC and rego, if the car hasn't registered????

Thank you very much.

1. $6k

2. Dont tell the officer as he might not like the new colour and he will give ya a canary

3. supercharged 350 chev = 15k also dont tell the officer because he may be a ford man.

4. For a $450k sl600 merc stamp duty is 18000 plus $600 to register

lol @ r34gtt-R abo bob for both being a wiseass..

1 & 2 - There is no paperwork to get the car resprayed or colour changed, so you can just go ahead and do that.

3. if the engine is a DIFFERENT type totally to the old one (say RB26DETT engine off a GTR) then you will need to get it fully engineered which can cost a bit. If its the SAME engine you can just pop it in, however you'll probably want to transfer the engine number to it, so both the plate and the engine number match. Vicroads can probably do that.

4. If the car hasn't been registed or is unregisted .. Vicroads needs to inspect the car before it will be registered again, and they're pretty strict about it (more than a garage) so NO modifications. A RWC is about $70, but that is just the cerficate itself if everything passes. If it don't, you gotta go get it all fixed up. After that you just pay the normal rego (i think) which is $520 or something.

This means......

If I change the color from white to grey........I can freely do it.

If I wanna change the engine , for example, RB20DET -> RB25DET/RB26DETT or 13B -> 13BT, I have to get it engineered (or not ?? :blah: ?? ).

I'm just a bit newbie of this things.......Thanks for helping me.

thats interesting

u guys know where i can quote on respraying and changing colour?

coz i need 2 respray my R33

and wanna change the colour of galant to midnite purple later

[2] AkEaKe, i think what you're asking is if you have to inform vic roads if u respray the car a different colour? thinking about it logically, yes, you would because when you first register a car i think you have to let them know what colour it is. if this is changed its important for identification purposes to let the "officer" (vic roads) know about it. that said i doubt many people tell vic roads

[4] stamp duty is payable at the rate of $8 for every $200 or part thereof (from memory). for my R33 GTS i piad $1025 this included one years rego + stamp duty.

:headspin: ummmmmmm........

Thank you very much. I would do nothing what I asked you all but it helps me a lot to understand operations in Victoria and AU.....

Thanks anyway :headspin:

I had my car resparyed factory black with a blue pearl for $1200 mates rates tho

I can put you onto this mate of mine who should be able to do it for about $1800-2200 depending on how much labours involved. PM if your interested.

[SS8_Gohan]

hey rigga, could your mate do a TV2 respray?

cheers

[riggaP]

I duuno what a TV2 is.... I can ask I spose...

[SS8_Gohan]

TV2 = Bayside Blue (R34 GTR colour)

[riggaP]

Ahh bayside blue, yes he can do any colour. He just needs the paint code. What colour is your car atm? I can only assume that big $$$$$ are involved with changing the colour completely (ie going from wine to TV2) because of the extra work involved.

[HKSgtst]

whats the colour code for R33 GTR's midnight purple ?

thanks !

[paulr33]

Anyone got any prices? Ill be sparying my 33 at the end of the year

[ABuSD]

Same, thinking of a jade green, or shiraz(S14a style)

[cobo_11]

I just want to get mine re-sprayed the same colour (win red or whatever it is)

And just the outside of the car, not the chassis (spelling) or any of that.

How much for the re-spray I want?
