Someone smashed into my GTR last night and im absolutely spewing, its the fist accident the car has ever seen in 20 years :( im a perfectionist and want it returned to perfect.

I only need one quote so i want to take it to the best place in vic (im not to fussed were it is). Is there a place that specialises in imports or something?... or maybe exotic/expensive cars?. lol

Yep, Micolour would be my choice too. Just recently did the front end on my Gtr and I couldn't be happier. Mick really knows his way around imports, attention to detail and quality of work is amazing.

Cheers.

Lol this is starting to sound like a Micolour preaching thread but there is a reason for that :P

another +1 for Micolour and I couldn't agree more with this comment:

Really looked after my car the way I would if I was doing the work myself

I know there is a lot of love for MiColour here, but has anyone had smash repairs done?

Meaning, f**ked up front end, f**ked rear guards, bought back to better than new?

Or is most of the work just restorations / touch ups / resprays etc?

...This is just a genuine question.

There are good sprayers and there are good smash repairers, rare it is to find one in the same.

IE. Show me a f**ked up sorry excuse for a write off and show me the final product. I am just interested thats all :D

We got a rear accident r33 gtr at sheen on city rd. So far they have been idiots as they ordered the rear bar in the day we dropped it off. Now it will take a month to come in. Only complaint so far. But all will be forgotten when i see they have done a good job

Charlie Battisti panels in Nunawading (they do all of BMW Australia repairs and have BMW loan/hire cars)

one of THE best ANYWHERE in oz - this would be the 'money is no consideration' option, which seems you have as they've said you can take it anywhere.

+1 DT panels

:):D

There have been quite a few cars repaired after some big damage after wall 'encounters' @ places like Sandown etc etc

& I'm talking half a car down a wall requiring all sorts of jig & cutting/welding work.

That'd be upto the owners to go into detail about though if they wanted, not my place to do it :)

      R32 GTS (RB20DE) Injectors Replacement

      By GabsReDeal · Posted

      Before starting any work, we attempted to adjust the tune. However even after adjusting it to certain extremes like completely stopping fuel, it had no effect. What fixed it was removing the Nistune Board and installing the original EPROM instead. This immediately fixed the issue. Everything should have been fine with the Nistune Board installation, so I am unsure why it has caused a problem. The soldered connector is also properly soldered. This worked when I first got the 550cc injectors, before cleaning, but that may have been a coincidence.  We ended up not installing the fuel pump hanger (at least for now). So currently running stock injectors, stock fuel pump, stock fuel pump hanger – Well everything stock except the exhaust. Now I have around €1400 in Nistune, Injectors, and Hanger collecting dust for the time being, perhaps I'll install them in the future. For now I'll enjoy the car as is 😁 Thanks a lot for all your assistance, I really appreciate all the help you have given me.

      Why am I hitting a power wall with my stroked RB25?

      The turbo can’t be the issue. They’re proven to make much much power than you’re making. There is something in the setup that isn’t correct. - has the exhaust got any silly step downs? - what exhaust manifold?

      Ok, just the way you wrote it made it look like you had the stagger the wrong way around

      I was getting anxious with the DVLA not knowing if the paperwork is fine or not, so I rang them. No update had been given, but I  was reassured that providing the box was ticked on the V750 then the application will go through fine. I've been checking the DVLA website pretty much every day, in the hope that it would have been done. Fast forward to Monday 29th  and I was greeted with a new screen on the check, and it finally showed as Taxed and MOT'd, woohoo! The car was in desperate need of a clean, not knowing when this day was coming it was put off. As far as I was concerned I had another 3 weeks  I'm not normally one for using snow foam, but I wanted to give it another try It hasn't cleaned up too bad considering it's 21 years old and lived on a boat for a number of weeks. The personalised number plate is J2 XBK, an illegally spaced number plate would have it read J2X BK. BK could either represent  the colour black or Baker, which is my surname. I filmed the first drive, the Youtube link will be at the end. I used the same driving route I did with the 323F V6 when I had a new exhaust installed, heres a couple of photos A few more since then Youtube video can be viewed here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TjkFHPzjGDw
