Spectrix

5 or 6 is a nice number. I can do more, but it starts to limit the social aspect of the day for me then, as I don't have time to talk!

Hey cam. Your cars still off the road hey. I hadn't forgotten about you dude. By the time you have the GTR running I might have found some Brembo stencils for your calipers.

Ahh lol, the workshops are usually me working and everyone else talking. Owners help out removing wheels etc but the tricky stuff is performed by myself. There are a few GC people so I might come down one weekend. Its handy if owners bring an extra jack with them on the day. I also photograph everyones car, so most guys wash their cars & wheels before hand.

I hold a small workshops every couple of weekends or so. 2 or 3 cars. Caliper paint colours I have here are Red, Yellow, Blue & Silver. 99% of people choose Red, it simply looks great on any car. This is what I recommend to most, as no one is ever dissapointed. Others colours can be sourced if need be. Hubs can be painted colours too ($30/car). EDIT - when I say workshop.. it's me working, and you guys talking Cheers guys Joey

CBG- You're talking about the hubs, they are sanded, primed and painted silver. Ska - there's a lot more to it than pulling the wheels of and spraying on some enamel. A first timer would spend 5-7 hours (plus $50 for materials) to get a result like Deans car.

Aww shucks.. I will post a thread about caliper painting in the classifieds section when I get back from melbourne in a weeks time. The cost for four calipers is $55, and four hubs $15 Silver 'nissan' lettering on calipers (where applicable) $10/pair. (You need existing raised cast lettering for this.. most skylines/200sx have it, some only the front brakes.)

Here are pictures of deans car with freshly painted calipers & hubs: (clickable links) Front Rear Rear Caliper (before & after) Front Caliper

Im working late Can I send dean in my place?

I think it's his mum?

Yeah.. suspension & swaybar, zaust, unichip and EBC. Making 185kW at the wheels now which I'm quite happy with. Hey I'll take you for a ride in the STi if you take me for one in the RS6!!

I was out in that yesterday... stop, start, stop.. then someone up the front decides to move 50cm closer to the next car, so the whole f***ing lane for 3km back ends up moving too! To make things worse, some bastard in the next lane is eating a cream egg really really slowly.

OMG you bastard you have all my dream cars! :usuck: What model is the rex dru?

Hey mick! Wondered when you'd pop yr head up Hows things mate?

Charly lives over near the cemetery! :ghost: Dean you're welcome to drop by anytime dude.

Edit - Is that you Neill? I thought I'd see you around here.. spose I should have known from the honda avatar. When are you blinging your calipers over? Hey Dean.. charly has already claimed to be you. :aroused: The reason you see various cars with their wheels off outside my place is that I hold caliper painting workshops there, I also run these in Melbourne on a slightly larger scale. Also help people out with CAI's and sound deadening sometimes. Anyway I always know when you go past cause of that special rb25 sound. And yep my cars a sleeper STi. Specially made to confuse people at the lights. Whats the story with 'adelaide's most suss afl star'?!

Heya James.. yeah I think you're at the top of my street. You would see my rex sometimes and white corolla and the GFs SSS pulsar. Love your car dude, sounds very nice. Also your flatmates s13 does cool drifto :wassup:

Ahh.. haven't seen him since a few months ago at qld raceway.. him and his dad were cutting laps.. sideways :headspin:

lol thanks. I know a couple of guys off the boards already.. yamutha of course, and michael.. he's got a silver 4 door GTSt.

Nah Warwick though i think you're refering to the bit at the bottom of government hill? Purtel park is a small, little known footy club near Mt Cootha... course the owner of the white r33 would know about it.. you'd be able to hear the games going on from his place. Zoix.. what?!

Combined cruise sounds great. BTW Does anyone know the guy with a nice white r33 who lives in Bardon near the cliff above purtel park? I think his flatmate drives a 180sx too.

Hi Everyone. I've been following the forums for some time now and I thought I'd actually say hello instead of lurking in the darkness. I noticed a large group of skylines (mostly r33s) & their owners at Milton maccas a few nights back, might have been some of you guys? I used to drive a pulsar sss, now a subaru impreza, please don't hold that against me! I'm also an administrator of the Pulsar Group of Australia forums. Anyway hope to see some of you out & about Joey
