Wheel Repair In Sydney. Places? Recommendations? R34 Gtr Rims.


Recommended Posts

Hi All,

Looking for recommendations where to have wheel repair done in Sydney?

I would like to get my R34 GTR rims refinished in their factory colour as they have slight rash and stone chips on them.

I'm located in Rouse Hill so something local would be handy but willing to travel if necessary.

Done a bit of searching and found some recommendations but most threads I found of this nature are a few years old.

Appreciate any advice or direction.

Thanks.

Or try Magman, he's located in Punchbowl, doesn't have a fancy website or anything but knows his schiz.

Address: 2/21 Moxon Road, Punchbowl NSW 2196 Phone: (02) 9709 2686

Not sure if magman does refinishing, but he does do straightening. Craved on this forum does refinishing (Craved Coatings). Many SAUers have used him and he does great work. But hes at Penrith.

I got my stockies powdercoated at craved, highly recommended

if you can't find an all in one place so to speak I used these guys to repair my gutter rash

Gday everyone, bump to an old thread


Has anyone had any wheels repaired in Sydney of late? Seems like the guy i use in Botany has shut down, or he doesnt realise his phone is disconnected. Craved can paint them however not fix them.


Have had a bad experieance with wheel repair before which i wouldnt like to go through again. Looking to get some gutter rash repaired and the edge painted.


Cheers

Ian Raymond at Wheel Centre Repairs 43 Bay St Botany will be back from holiday mid-Jan.

Formerly Simmons Wheels, he's still my first choice, after I've used...

* Greg at MagMan of Punchbowl

* Nigel at OneStop of Unanderra

* Paul at OzWheels of Minchinbury

Daleo has a top recommendation too whom I can't recall right now.

    • 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/  
    • Yeah dunno why johhny posted that here with no context, just post on FB/insta bro where he put it up?  Laine had an off at T4 during Thurs prac, he's ok, car is less than perfect, they are done for the weekend, he can fill in the rest. Bando also binned it like 100m up the road.   
    • I feel there must have been a FB/insta post and the weekend did not start well at all I hope everyone is all okay
    • Yeah, I guess its pretty easy to get to if this doesn't work. Just wait till next oil change and pull it out. I am going to have to do the oil pan gasket soon and thought I'd just replace it while I was there.  Thanks
    • All that matters is you're safe and you were able to type that post. Hopefully heaps of parts you can recover for the next shell.
