Hey guys,

Just making a post to inform everyone about a good experience with one of our SAU VIC supporters, John from PDR-TEK.

My old lady's car had a decent dint in the rear qtr panel of her Astra, his work was great.. I didn't think he would have been able to get the dint out, let alone get it close to 100%. Looking at the panel now, you would never pick that a dint used to be their.

He did the job at her work and spent a few hours perfecting his work, even helped out another person at her work!

If you sign up to become a VIC member and present your card he will look after you, as he did for me :thumbsup:

If you guys are interested here is his contact details:

Good one Mark!

- I was reading the SAU-VIC Sponsors the other day and wondering about this as my new car has a new ding on EACH SIDE! GRRR..

Will have to get this done as well but the dents are really small and hardy noticeable to most people. BUT not to ME! ;D

Can he make the panel back perfect?

haha i know what you mean, nothing worse then getting those first few dints on a new car!

Depending on the access you have to the back of panel and what the dint is like will depend on how well he can get it out. Even if he cant get a dint out 100%, he says he can get it close or would be able to considerably improve it.

Best bet is have a chat to him, or send him some pics so he can let you know.

Hi guys, thanks for the kind words. As for a perfect finish that is what i aim for. Obviously some dents are just too big or the metal has been stretched, but in most cases i can improve the dent to a point where it can hardly be noticed. Smaller dings and dents i can usually get a perfect or near perfect result.

Cheers

i bought my car with a few blemishes and they've always annoyed me...

what kinda dollars am i in for, for the average job by john?

Hi Sam, i am sure you can appreciate it is very hard for me to provide a accurate quote without seeing the dent first. If you can send a few digital photo's to info@pdrtek.com.au i can have a look, or have a look at my website here at www.pdrtek.com.au or just give me a call to arrange a time and i can come out and supply a quote. As a very rough guide dents the size of a 5 cent coin will start at $60 for SAU members, if you have a few dents on the same panel then i will discount to do a few dents on the same panel.

Hope this helps.

Cheers

John

    • Hi from Canada, Both of my calipers are starting to fail. My car is a 2005 M35 Stagea ARX and I can't seem to find any parts or any cross reference caliper that would fit my car. Is there a company or a similar caliper that would fit and I could replace the OEM one. Or if anyone knows where I can find a new OEM. Any help is very appreciated. Let me know!
    • Maf is a question mark but TPS  I have set at 0.47, the fact that I’m getting proper voltage range out of it with the key on leads me to believe it’s functioning properly. I’m getting proper voltages on basically everything. I still need to look up voltage ranges for z32 maf and test that 
    • Honestly no not at all, but it’s a very basic tune, it’s stock injectors q45 tps and z32 maf. Other than that it’s a completely stock base map. The file is from nistune and from my understanding if it was tune related I would be able to unplug maf and tps and it would still start even if it was a really shitty start. I have tried starting it with coolant temp, maf, and tps unplugged none of those 3 togethor or individually changes anything

    • What does it look like with highway driving? And yes, I had a similar thought as Duncan. It looks quite similar in my Stagea and I have made myself accept it as normal. Might have to look into it some day   Highway gets as low as 10l/100km on my end so I'm not as worried about it being a mechanical issue. More likely just the tune on the haltech.
