1300 isnt that expensive. alot goes into preparing a kit to be sprayed. alot of sanding, filling etc. i had a front bar and sides skirts painted for $450 but i did all the prep work saving heaps but it took hrs of time.

u might be able to get it down to 1k but your getting a whole kit done

i'm going to be getting some things sprayed, actually a lot sprayed now i think about it.

front/rear bumpers. spoiler, and rear quarters (to cover up the fugly holes left by the fugly rear spoiler) but i'm most probably gonna get a freebie :) - that aside, what's involved in prep work and can anyone do it or should you leave it to the pros? I've never done any sanding type stuff ever before.

cheers.

EDIT: Pashak, do you need stuff done right now? I might be able to hook you up (not free, sorry!) at least give you a contact. Place is North Melbourne, off kingsway, pretty much CBD.

SS8_Gohan: yeah that what be great, i want it sprayed asap, details would be appreciated...

i will do all the preping myself, all i need is the highfill done and paint in tupac black

i might even do the highfill myself, if i can get my hands on an aircompressor

how much do u think it'll cost if i do the prep and highfill myself??

cos then all that needs to be done is paint, that should work out a hell of a lot cheaper...

The sanding part is easy,you need a good eye for a nice even sanded surface,for detail mostly and not be a slacker.....Im thinking about a full respray after i get my kit as there are a few touch ups arround the car and i think with a freshly sprayed kit/car it will make the car look good...

Interesting topic guys, just got my car back from getting my 400r front and rear fitted, prepped and sprayed...

The kit to get sprayed was:

$400 for front bar including indicator fit

$300 for rear

$100 for pods

Heres a pic of the finished job... Only 4 hours after getting the car back :D

hey guys, so sorry for the delay

mb# is 0411 145 145 - Name is Dietmar (i think that's how you spell it, pronounced 'Ditmar', he's Austrian) - It's relatively new workshop as he's moved from his old one. Tell him 'Daniel Chin' referred you.

I was told $350 for a panel, just for a spray. But like lwells was saying, he would have to see the panels first, so Pashak, you'd have to show him your handy work, see if everything is up to scratch :D

Seems like a decent price, and we might be able to organise something a little better.

cheers,

daniel.

      Rb26 iron block limit

      By MBS206 · Posted

      Build an 800hp motor. Make it as bullet proof as you want, you WILL still break things. Like, the rest of the car. Heck, even as a dead stock car, things will still break, but the more power, the more everything else will let go easier. From gearbox gear sets, to extra stress on the chassis/mounts, more stress on diff, axles, tailshaft, even the suspension mounts. Check out the motorsport build that last year went to a Bosch motor sport ABS setup, and now can brake so damn hard it's twisting mounts for suspension/subframe etc. Now if the brakes can do it, imagine what happens with super grippy tyres and 800hp in a low gear...   Shit, I'm presently out fixing the girlfriends daily driver that rarely sees past 3,000rpm and is used to cart the dogs around in. Everything WILL break. If you don't want it to break, don't drive it. And then laugh, as it will still break without even being driven!

      Question about BoV on RB25DET NEO

      By MBS206 · Posted

      ECUMaster is an Australian company from memory, been around a while, and seem to actually play really well on more unique engine setups. Seems to be more of them being used in the states, and they seem to support more cylinders than most others.   My opinion on stock ECU/Nistune with he AFM, is you can tune around the issue of stalling. It's still a bit of a band-aid, and not the most perfect smoothest setup, but it can make it drive able and not an absolute PITA. But you're still compromising. A vent to atmosphere BOV has the same issue as no BOV with regards to the AFM. Both make the ECU think more air is entering the engine than there really is. And I can't find any hard science/decent evidence that supports the claims all the "you MUST run a BOV of some sort of you'll blow the turbo up". About the only one some people can give of why is "lag between gear shifts", and that is only an issue when your boost source for the waste gate is pre throttle body. I ran my boost source for the TD07S off the inlet manifold. Didn't have weird boost spiking issues, didn't have boost control issues, and on a gear shift the wastegate slammed shut, which meant all exhaust gases would be keeping it going round and round and not waiting for the wastegate to shut again when I stepped off the clutch and back on the loud pedal. It came back on boost in the next gear pretty much instantly.   ECU / tune / BOV choice I think really comes down to a lot more factors than just what you've stated. And personally, especially for daily driving, recirc setup for the BOV, or no BOV. I dislike the really loud BOV when everyone is taking off from the lights etc.

      All motors are consumables. This thing costs $250,000-500,000 and makes 640hp/430 KW, naturally asipirated. It has a competitive advantage in being more reliable than other cars it competes against. They rate these engines in hours before rebuilds. Are you going to out-engineer half million GT3 car manufacturers in a garage? People really need to be honest with what they are going to do, and remember that 99.9% of the people on the internet are not honest with how they use their car and what it holds up to and how much power it makes and how easy/hard it was. Anyone worrying about the block limit of anything is the kind of person that will be unable to do a single track day, for example, perhaps not even a single session. Build the kind of car you would want to have if you could never tell a single soul about it and nobody would ever know.

      Atessa pump questions

      By gte · Posted

      For anyone who finds this via a search  An s14 alternator connector and Silvia Fusebox/350z headlight connector can be used. Get the non pigtail version of the alternator connector so you can use 12 gauge wire for the pump.    I am using  https://ebay.us/m/ToEEmM And https://conceptzperformance.com/czp-xenonhid-headlight-connector-w-pigtails-8-pin-male-nissan-350z-03-08-z33-or-jdm-fusebox-for-silvia-s14-czp-26060-m-8pin_p_19166.php
