Extensive Wheels and Tyres on South Road are good, and so are the place directly opposite them. But they're both f-ing expensive.

I was recommended to go to Action Crash on the corner of South Road and Daws Road. I went there for a quote and the price was good and they were nice, but I've been busy and haven't had a chance to follow up on it.

Let me know how you all go because I need to get all four of my rims re-done.

What's your story Ashley? I'm keen for a good price. Tell me more.

I rang extensive wheels n tyres today.

$55 a rim for re machining the lip and $85 each rim for powder coating.

well i can beat that by a mile, think i can get it done for less than half that!

Dunno if i can get the lip re-machined though!

Well My deal is i'm a boilermaker and the company i work for gets things powdercoated so i can get things done for how much they can!

I think the last time i checked the price was $20-$25 a rim to get powdercoated thats as long as you prep them yourself like getting the tyres off etc. I think that sandblasting (if needed) costs around $30-$35 a rim.

I was quoted, not charged. Still haven't had my rims fixed.

The damage isn't too bad, it's just minor damage from scraping the gutter. All four wheels have some form of damage though, thanks to their previous owner.

How perfectly can colours be matched? My wheels are a matte silver colour and I love the colour exactly how it is...

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
