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):

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....

      RB25DE NEO with Haltech ECU

      If you take the top half of the intake off you can unbolt the flap off the shaft and leave the shaft in there blocking the hole. Then you can remove the little vacuum canister off from under the manifold and get a spare vacuum line to run to the ECU. I can take some photos of it later. Probably best to get the vacuum source to the ECU sorted first though. Mine all worked mint with the base map from the GTT an I've pretty much let the closed loop sort the fueling and took 1 degree out of the whole timing map.

      This IS something you also have to configure in Haltech (or at least I did in the past when going from onboard-to-ECU map sensor and an external MAP sensor in haltech land).

      I'm hoping it's something as simple as the ECU is looking for an external MAP sensor, but he is trying to use the onboard MAP sensor.

      You won't need to do that if your happy to learn to tune it yourself. You 100% do not need to do that. It is not part of the learning process. It's not like driving on track and 'finding the limit by stepping over the limit'. You should not ever accidently blow up an engine and you should have setup the ECU's engine protection to save you from yourself while you are learning anyway. Plenty of us have tuned their own cars, myself included. We still come here for advice/guidance/new ideas etc.  What have you been doing so far to learn how to tune?

      Put the ECU's MAP line in your mouth. Blow as hard as you can. You should be able to see about 10 kPa, maybe 15 kPa positive pressure. Suck on it. You should be able to generate a decent vacuum to about the same level also. Note that this is only ~2 psi either way. If the MAP is reading -5 psi all the time, ignition on, engine running or not, driving around or not, then it is severely f**ked. Also, you SHOULD NOT BE DRIVING IT WITHOUT A LOAD REFERENCE. You will break the engine. Badly.
