So today I discovered the present I was left presumably from after the dyno day when I stopped for lunch as thats the last time I drove my gtr. I would have been out of my car for no more than 10 minutes but that was all the time the f**king scumbag needed to hit my car and leave without me noticing. The dent isn't too bad really but the paint scrapes they left are my concern. Anyway a picture tells a thousand words so...

the dent is a little hard to see, as I said its not huge.

So I need some recommendations from people who may have used those dent removal services before or whether its something only a panel beater would be able to fix. I'd really like to get it sorted before the dawn cruise.

Cheers,

-Pete.

you can use simple Thinners to remove the paint marks, and a small amount of dry ice to pull out the small dent

are u serious??? thinners, ummmm NO!!! thinners wil remove the clear also, just use a gentle cut n polish to get rid of the paint...

as for the dent i use "adams dents".... look him up as i dont have his number handy, my x gf's black astra convertable has the rear qtr kicked

and this guy got the huge dent n scuffs out without a mark left, i was impressed.. all for under $100 :)

any probs sourcing his number im sure i can chase it up for u... hes mobile also

So just got the car back from Nick with Dentmasters and its perfect.

I wont bother taking a photo because you cant tell that there was a dent there.

He was very easy to deal with too, good bloke.

    • The speedo's can be very conservative, when my Mazda NC MX5 speedo is showing 118kph, the GPS, and a calibrated radar.... cop mate.....hits me at around 110kph +/- 1 or 2 kph, and that is on a 215/45 17, stock tyres size is 205/45 17 as well, so weirdly conservative with stock tyre size When my Commodore speedo red 116kph GPS had me at 110kph After doing some offset and clearance measurements to see what can fit the NC on 17x8 +40, without guard rolling or rubbing anything at my current ride height, I've decided that when my tyres are toast, I'm going to fit 225/45 17 and see where that gets me IRT actual speed of my speedo and GPS/radar From the online calculator I should be still be doing around 5kph under an actual 110kph when the speedo is showing 110kph My ADHD requires that when I'm doing 110kph on the speedo, that the actual road speed is actually really close to that, and not alot slower And going from 205 to 225 still keeps the car within the %/mm allowable in the NSW vehicle rules and regulations, which is nice, as long as I'm looking at the latest version that is.....LOL https://www.nsw.gov.au/sites/default/files/2021-02/RMS-13.464-Light-vehicle-modifications-Vehicle-Standards-Information-No-6-November-2013.pdf
    • Take the value it measured as, and pick the closest range available that is above the reading on the screen.   Also, no point just testing the coils. Read what has been said again. You need to test all your wiring, everything.
    • Does the scanner do all the CUs in the car, or only the ECU?
    • @666DAN sorry to bring you and old thread.     I've got my de+t done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.    Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd when selected . But nothing when in  drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic. I'm sure there is maybe 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Do ya have any ideas?     Cheers man
    • Well I recently changed my rear axles and was thinking if I bumped anything, I have been driving the car for a while now though... But it has been raining today so everything is wet under the wheel arches. Brakes feel fine and can't hear any of the metal screamers, I had a squeak coming from one of the handbrake drums but that seems to have gone away a while ago. I was going down a hill when it lit up and I did feel the abs bite for a second and question why it did it?
