Craved do a good job, I've seen his work on someone elses covers and it looks great

or if you want to cheap out you can do what I did and spray them with touch up paint from super cheap, painted mine evoke metallic (VE Holden colour):

I couldnt attached this from my phone, i asked Chris to make my covers and HKS rail match my plazmaman gear and without needing any further info he produced this -

Awesome bloke to deal with, good pricing and REALLY goes the extra mile to get it done right.....

You can coat it yourself with paint like the guys have below (looks pretty good) but if your not confident then you cant go wrong with Craved :D

And NO i have nothing to do with them, i was just a VERY happy customer and like to share the experience!!

I have also heard nothing but great things about craved and I am up in QLD so the reputation crave has actually gets around.

Agree ^

I live in Perth, but I'm seriously considering ripping off my rocker covers when I get my car back and posting them to Craved to do. If only I could commit to a colour...

Goes to show that good workmanship etc goes a long way.... And word of mouth/keyboard etc.... :woot:

Colour? Dont want it to clash with your purple and chrome? :wub:

Exactly haha. I had decided on metallic gun metal, but thought it wasn't original enough. So then decided dark blue at the back of the covers, fading into a metallic black at the front. But then decided that looks too rice for me. So then I thought just metallic black, but now I don't think that will stand out enough. At the moment I'm thinking of blue, but everyone gets blue... So now I'm getting nothing :P

anyone in Sydney should speak to Competition Coatings in guilford.... Search for Compcoat in google to find them..

They ceramic coated my turbo, intake and exhaust manifolds, rocker covers, throttle body and cooler piping....

The car isnt back together yet but here is a pic so far....

    • Hi GTSBoy, Excuse my ignorance but what does a "Bad" Knee point mean ? 
    • HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.
    • The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.
    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
