hey there4, a few months (5 or 6) i crashed my dads brand new magna lol, wasnt a write off but i did $15k damage, it went to romanos and was supposed to tkae a month, it took nearly 2 and a half months due to delays. I doubt this is normal for them though. One of the people needed to fix the car was on holiday for opart of the time, and they had to order new parts from japan.

BUT they did a great job and the car came back driving good as new.

thats how i know it :(

i was driving that car to work for ages haha

and no it doesnt cost, insurance covers it.

well i guess youd have to ring ur insurance to ask if they do but my dads did.

hmmm a week later....and my car hasn't even been looked at :D hehe mmm how long does it take to repair front bar...and get lower control arms these days? and also does Aliance Rim repairs...i mean can the repair ne damage on the rim provided the rim is not split in half and like bent and stuff? *cause romano's is sayin my rim may not be repairable* :stupid:

It's better to get a whole new rim. Don't want to be racing down a speedway/dragstrip at 180km/hr and ur wheel shattering due to a hairline crack that's not visible due to the paint eh? Take the safest route out. Besides, u're covered by insurance arn't you ?

  • 5 weeks later...

yeah its pretty wicked job...apart from the rims :laugh: hehe my rims looked better b4 like they done a wicked job repairing the rim but painting is a bit under average :laugh: like if thats the closes they can match it then >_<

    • Hi everyone, just looking to see what's available in the GTR seat options, testing the waters on what's available. Wanting a driver's seat to replace my old school OG jap race seat, going to re-register the car so need a factory seat. Prices currently seem to go from $300 to $2k for a driver's seat. What's options are there, that's good condition and actually a realistic price? Located Brisbane. Thanks
    • Are these a plug and play setup, and do they need a tune, like a haltech ecu etc? Thanks
    • Nice work on the paint. Those 3 studs are long as. 
    • Hi everyone, still chasing a bunch of this stuff. Thanks
    • Been over 2 months since I have done anything on the S15 and had a day off today so got stuck into mounting the radiator and intercooler. I ended up using factory bottom mounts as bolted in and I did order some gktech top brackets but didn't work with the PWR radiator so made up some with aluminium flat bar. Spent way to long on them but pretty happy how they are. Next job was the intercooler. Used some more aluminium flat bar and did the bottom mounts first. Top was easy as just one long piece and 2 90 degree coming off rad support and welded them on. The bumper support required some notching to let the outlets sit where I want so will add some reinforcement later to strengthen it. I have also bought ecu and waiting for it to arrive. Went with a Link g4x Xtreme but will be adding a ptmotorsport expander to add a few extra inputs over CAN. Went through a few different configurations on pclink to get what I want to allow future expansion for sensors and gearbox upgrades. Ordered gktech rear arms but looking at the hardrace lower control arms to have some extra adjustment too will see how the alignment looks after first setup. Got 2 more weeks of work before shut down and will have almost 4 weeks to work on this so planning on hopefully firing up mid January.   Also bought a 2015 brz with a heap of good gear, did noosa hill climb a month back. Owned it for 3 days changed alignment and sent it. Finished the weekend 2nd in class and only .3 off the 180sx best time last year. MCA Red coilovers, gktech rear lca, bolt on lock kit and tie rods, whiteline toe arms, cusco 1.5way diff and 4.5 ratio, endless brake pads, headers, exhaust, perrin intake and e85 tune. Electronic steering adjustment, nankang crs with koya wheels 17x9 +35. Have bought rear traction arm and relocation kit, extended studs and v3 tie rod kit. Planning on also getting flex tune as lucky to get 300km a tank with e85 and short ratio. Car is a heap of fun to drive and super easy to work on. AC in the line up at Noosa was mint in 35degree weather.
