Hey Guys I have recently just had my interior refinished in carbon (well carbon type finish)

Its not Vinyl wrap its kind of well...... in the paint (but not airbrushed either !!!)

The guy who did it for me only charged me $180 for the two pieces of dash ( Thats with 2 coats of clear 2 pack paint too !!)

I was so pleased with it I got him to do the window switch too :) (another $50)

....... for $230 my car has gone from rough looking, to brand new out of the factory

let me know your thoughts and comments ... ( i have the Din blank on order should be here this week)

Looks a little odd to be honest, if its meant to look like carbon firbee the designer failed a little. But hey if you like it screw what anyone else thinks XD, I like a nice stock factory looking interior to be honest. But it is neat and done properly atleast.

It must have been crook looking before! :P

Nah srsly, the workmanship is tops.

The finish may not be everyone's taste as many here are picky to the extent that it MUST look as close to C/F as possible...

But hey, I've seen some new cars with faux C/F that don't look as good as that :)

Care to post up the city you're in?

Hey guys thanks for the honest comments :)

I realise it doesn't look exactly like carbon fibre but to be honest its only 1 tenth of the price and i really like the pattern :)

reference the foot well..... ha ha ha ha what can I say .... when it had the rubbish interior (was all damaged) I seemed less likely to keep it lookng good as no matter how much i cleaned it it still looked poo..... its been clean for a week now........ (we shall see how long that lasts though lol)

Where am i located ?? Birkdale (south Brisbane) But it wasnt me who did it ... his name was mrcustomise.com.au (hope I dont get introuble for posting that ......)

Yeah the guys who did it had lots of different types of carbon effect I just kind of liked this one best .... I realise carbon is very dark but i wanted something a bit lighter so this is what i picked :)

yeah the finish is brilliant and ref the pattern stretch ..... that's apparently impossible to stop as that's how it allows even coverage over the entire product... and to be fair I don't think it ruins the overall effect especially when you consider the price ... I'm still very very happy :)

Awesome looking result mate. Really transforms your interior from the basic r33 look. Great cheap mod imo for updating the aging interior. May consider doing something similar myself in the near future.

      RB25DET with solid lifters - which cams ?

      They are under bucket shims. Tomei provides a test shim kit and then any measurement of shim required.

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I always wondered how you were supposed to buy a set of 24 buckets and somehow magically have every single one of them yield exactly the desired clearance. I would have thought you'd need to assemble a cam with either 12 "sample" or "example" buckets of known top thickness (or a single such sample/example 12 times over!!) measure clearances at every valve, and then do the usual math to work out what the actual "shimness" of each bucket needed to be, before buying the required buckets to make up he thicknesses that you didn't have on hand.

      RB25DET with solid lifters - which cams ?

      By TurboTapin · Posted

      I now seem to be limited in power due to my rev limit/hydraulic lifters in my built RB25. I'm looking into converting over to Tomei solid lifters. Question for anyone that has done the conversion. I was always under the impression that when using the Tomei solid lifter conversion, you would also require new valves (Longer or shorter stems, I can't remember which).  I don't know where I got this idea, as so far I see no mention of this in any of the Tomei documentation. It just states I need the Tomei solid buckets, solid lifter cams and upgraded springs. As my head is already built, all I would need is another set of 1000$ Kelford cams, 500$ buckets and about 4H hours of my time installing and I'm off to the races!?!? There's no way it's that simple, I must be missing something?

      Why am I hitting a power wall with my stroked RB25?

      By TurboTapin · Posted

      I couldn't agree more. I should have started from the get-go with a NEO or solid bucket conversion. I started looking into converting over to solid lifters yesterday. Now for some reason I was always under the impression that when using the Tomei solid lifter conversion, you would also require new valves (Longer or shorter stems, I can't remember which).  But I see no mention of this on any of the Tomei documentation. It just states that I need the Tomei solid buckets, solid lifter cams and upgraded springs. As my head is already built, all I would need is another set of 1000$ Kelford cams, 500$ buckets and about 4H hours of my time installing and I'm off to the races!?!?
