Is is good stuff, but is STUPIDLY expensive in Aus due to shipping issues as it is so flammable/dangerous (has to be shipped internally within Aus by truck - cannot go on a plane).

Once this stuff is released (updates are that it will be VERY soon), I am going to do my wheels and front grille this this :

All positive developments! Like this idea more than full vinyl wrapping, which looks like a nightmare on compound curves and joins.

Have seen Plasti-dip used on friends badges, grills and wheels with great success. 2 key points we've found: 1: make sure you warm the can before and in between coats for a smoother consistency and finish (hot water in a bucket works well) 2: as Triggs mentioned, many coats = longer finish life and easier removal.

Mayo_85 should be here any second, hes got some practical experience with Plasti-dip and similar on the V.

Thanks for the into Dreadnaught.

I have used Plasti dip on my roof and wheels with a good deal of success. And if your after a new but temporary look I highly recommend it. Cost is a bit pricey, but Caswell on EBay have wheel kits (4 cans) for around $110 shipped.

Am looking at the Blaze green for my next wheel colour :)

No idea mate. Last I heard he was having shipping issues getting it into the country or something like that. Maybe join his FB page to get updates? I was going to buy a kit to do my whole car, as the prices in the pre-buy were insanely cheap - but then the pre-buy ran out before I got around to buying it. Hopefully his retail prices aren't too much above - it makes a $500 'respray' in a different colour every year VERY appealing :)

    • How many of you guys run the synchro os giken set and at what power? Do you then also use the billet plate?  How is it launching with it, any dragy times from 0-60? 60ft?
    • Oh, also, forgot to add these photos I believe.
    • Thought i'd update on this. I was able to get in contact with Craig Lieberman and later on Darryl Alison (owner of Kaizo Industries). Darryl was able to help me verify that my car was in fact one of theirs and is helping me find more info on mine !
    • There's restrictor pills in the stock boost control hoses. That's how they set the amount that was bled off and hence the "high" boost setting. The usual mod in the day was to remove it and send the "high" boost setting up to about 14 psi.
    • Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂
