I use alpha one panel and paint in Osborne Park, good guy and has helped me on respraying bottoms of bumpers just before shows etc etc.... pay in cash and has been VERY cheap and good work....

HOWEVER..... it would be grea to get a well kinda like a group buy at a panel beater! most of us use one of the 2 tuners in here (SST or Hyperdrive) as they look after us, would be great if we have any panel beaters to be our main skyline choice of repairer!!

CAN ANYONE OUT THERE HELP US BY OFFERING VERY CHEAP PRICES! I am sure by the way some of us drive our lines frequent business would be achieved by offerin very cheap prices with good work!

Nah i think it's HOWE street, near WA suspension...

Bugger i never knew they had new owners, i was friends with the old owners daughter! as IMACUL8 mentioned was a great guy!

Hmmm might have to see what they can do....

Precision Panel and Paint, Bayswater. They do top class work and I have used their services for over 12 years. They are registered repairers and also do warrantty work for Peugeot, Citrroen and Ford.

Hey - this is from SAUWA member Scags (Jarred) -

My Dad owns and manages one of Perth's leading Panel & Paint shops:

Gino's Panel & Paint http://www.ginos.com.au/ in Freo. They mostly do

insurance work, but do some private work.

Quality wise they are second to none. They have the latest tools

technologies and techniques. Price wise however, they are not the

cheapest around. This is a definite reflection of the quality though.

At the moment there is no special deal for members as the shop is quite busy. But have a look at the website or give them a call.

My brother owns and operates a panel & paint shop and i would highly recommend him. Its only a small shop but his work is excellent and he has put out several show cars including a harlequin twin turbo V6 commodore that is going to be in motivation this weekend. Details:

Impact Panel & Paint

Owner: Sean Booy

Ph: 9248 2086

Address: Unit 5 / 27 Truganina Rd Malaga

Is he prepared to do a cheap deal for SAUWA members? Basically i have an insurance job which has to be done.. and more than happy to put to anyone as i'm not paying... but i have a few scratches and a front bar repair to do too.. if he wants both bits of work and the price is right....

Personally i reckon that if someone jumps on board and gives decent prices too SAUWA members.. he'll get a HEAP of repeat business. Its hard to find any car work thats both reliable and well priced. You dont know who to trust

well said damono, you don't know who to trust which is the issue now a day.

With someone who is a panel beater about to get a sh*t load of business from SAU we definately want to know that we will be getting THE BEST PRICE and an AWESOME JOB.

Tragic - if your bro can make some sort of arrangement it looks like he already has about 4 cars in line to getstarted on and as always word ofmouth will spread very quickly through SAUWA providing that we can get a very good price and quality.... please keep us up to date with how it goes would be great for him and SAUWA

    • Sounds like you've got an interesting adventure ahead here with local support if you have trouble! My guess is that, unboosted, you will be OK with a small upgrade like -9. What will happen is that once the stock ECU sees more airflow than it expects it will add a heap of fuel and pull a heap of timing to be safe because it can't understand how it could get that much air without there being an issue. You will see clouds of black smoke and it won't pull hard through the midrange and top end. So, overall it will be a bit frustrating but should be OK. If you are still nervous set the base timing back 2o through the CAS, but it will be even more sluggish everywhere. As said above through...this is not my guarantee your engine won't be blown into a million pieces, leaving you looking for very hard to find parts A better idea is get a computer with logging ASAP, wire in a wide band O2 sensor and a use remote tuner. I've done multiple cars this way and while it is not as good as a specific tune on a dyno they can get it 90% right. I'd suggest if you can afford an R33 GTR these days you can afford an ECU and tune. And if you can't afford that you sure won't be able to afford the rebuild if it goes bad in the meantime,.  
    • Yeah it would be nice if someone took the time to put that sort of information together, but there are a lot of variations in looms. I think you are making this way hard for yourself if you just want to get it running....sourcing an SR20 with the right wiring will be a billion times easier than matching the RB loom to an S15 chassis. If you do end up going this way, you just need to trace every wire in the loom with a multimeter, 95% of them will go to a location you can confirm at the ECU.....and then post it up for the next person who needs it  
    • Just top it up with water, and keep a general idea of how much you added. It is normal for water to be pushed into and pulled out of the reservoir through the cap, and it should not be more than half full or it will be likely to overflow when hot. Any decent mechanic can do a pressure test of the cooling system to confirm if you have a leak. Keep in mind if it is only leaking a little and when hot it may well evaporate before you see it hit the ground
    • I'd ask the shop what they used and use that. Mixing coolants is sometimes OK, sometimes not, and you have know the details of each coolant to know whether it's a good idea or not.
    • Is it alright to top up with just another green coolant?
