Hi guys,

Did a quick search around the forums for places which do interior retrims but haven't had much luck getting one which can provide a decent job for a decent price. Looks like a lot of places now prefer to sell seat covers as well.

Was hoping someone here might know of a place that can retrim seats for a decent price, say $500 for a pair of front seats potential (or am insane and thats not a fair price)?

Just looking for plain black cloth, red stitching and embroidery of a logo.

Thanks in advance

Croydon Motor Trimming ftw.

Good service, good price, waiting to get my seats back.

Oh good to hear! I'll use him again one day, did excellent work restoring my partner's 1972 XA coupe seats and re-trimming my Pulsars interior (which I've just sold 7.5 years on.) He also fabbed up seat rails to suit :)

They do show cars and dealership cars.

One of the cars they did is on the cover of the current issue of the Street Machine magazine.

Did my 4WD seats and converted them to "recaro" style with leather and suede inserts.

Fantastic job.... they fixed my broken seat back and the seat heaters too... but a bit more expensive than $500!!

lol you reckon Juliette.... bold statement. Yes a few of us know she's in to motorsport and can drive pretty well.. Relax :ermm:

I missed a word in that :whistling: That was meant to say nearly every member.

I guess I was getting a little defensive as all guys ever see is someones looks if they're incredibly good looking (like Hayley) and not any other talents they might possess.

Only just seen this thread now. I would have suggested my mate Andy from Muscle Motor Trimmers. His work is second to none.

An example of his work:

All I can say is how much did that cost and I want my interior to look like that.

    • 12+ months passed so they have no obligation to do a warranty claim. It leaked from the rear circuit. Front circuit was fine, but I tried many times to bench-bleed and in-car bleed (wasted 1L of Penrite racing brake fluid) to no avail. Threw my old BM50 or whatever the standard R32 GT-R BMC is, brakes went back to normal. So from my very limited anecdotal experience, I cannot recommend HFM, even though a lot of their products looks good. Just my experience (I have a genuine Nissan BM57 in a box waiting to be installed now).
    • How dare you sell your unreliable Skyline and buy a reliable, Toyota/Yamaha car with a strong gearbox, torsen LSD and Toyota reliability. At least you won't need to worry about oil pumps, big catch can, oil restrictors, blowing off power steering belts, sheering off 3rd gear, failing ABS relays/pumps, etc.
    • Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

    • The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/
