Hi Guys,

Im looking to get some paint work done to my R32 GTR (perhaps even a respray).

Can anyone recommend any shops they have dealt with and were extremely happy with the job?

I have been running around getting quotes (all around the 8k mark for a respay).

I have heard I should speak to Louie Xclusive Colours but the company doesn’t appear to be listed anymore.

I am thinking of going with Chatswood Prestige (they did a claim on an R34gtt in the past).

Thanks in advance.

(PS the car is white)

I'm in the same situation, but my R33 is black.

Wouldn't mind having the stone paint-chips repaired also, but as they are mostly on the bumper, a respray might be enough.

Still living with it since those gravel trucks dumped debree on the M2 about 5 years ago.

Damn north shore construction.

I met a guy who got a whole R33 done, with a custom colour change for $2000.

It was done right, with glass and rubbers being removed.

Looked great.

Wish I got the details, but at least I know it can be done for less than $8K.

I got my kit done by Auto Refinishers in Randwick

They're on Lingard St, close to the intersection between Alison Rd and Avoca St

Good quality stuff and friendly too though I forgot their number or contact details

you can search it up in the yellow pages that's what I did :(

  • 2 weeks later...

red car... maybe just external spray (not engine bay/trim) in darker read and maybe silver pearl. just to make it look neat/tidy on the outside for minimal cost.

Doesn't look pretty atm... thus am aiming to change colour and rims and have a reasonable car.

Might take the engine and gear out myself and spray the bay black, as i imagine it aint cheap to have somebody else do that for you.

    • Hey, guys, I’m hoping I can find answer here. I have already done some searching and asking around but still nothing.    I fitted an IC7 dash in my R32 GTR, and I got everything displaying on the dash except my high beams. I get input voltage and the high beams displaying in the dash when I pull the lever, but not when I fully engage the high beams. I spliced into the Red/Blue Beam+ wire in the black center connector from the cluster, but there is also a black Beam wire I think I need to use as well. The high beams still work. It’s just a matter of getting it to display on the dash.    Has anyone fully wired in their IC7 properly ? I would appreciate any guidance on this.    IMG_8835.mov    
    • I buy my wheel cleaner in 4 litre bottles now. Euro brakes are brutal
    • Sounds like it may all just be some baseless outrage stoked by the carexplore guy? As in the linked social media outrage on facebook just goes back to carexplore as a source again. Further shown by the council response that nothing actually has changed: "The Private Land Use Permit has been part of the Casey Community Local Law for a number of years. It's important to clarify that this permit is not new, and no changes have been made to the permit or the Local Law in relation to the permit." The full council response in Prank's link sounds reasonable to me. Saying that as someone who neither lives there nor has a front yard to call their own  
    • Clutch hydraulics are also all good, looks like a brand new slave cylinder and everything bled up well. No idea what the actual clutch is, and I don't intend to pull the box off on the floor to find out, so unless we have trouble on the dyno or at shakedown that will remain a mystery for the new owner
    • Front brakes are G4 8 pot calipers over 330mm discs with braided lines. Everything looks good, pretty sure these are off my old 350. Pads are brand new and judging from gold colour are Winmax which is what I also run on my race car, Neil and I both sourced brake stuff from Matty at Racebrakes Sydney who really knows his stuff Everything has bled up nicely with all new Motul RBF600 fluid, there were 2 loose hard line connections and the calipers were new on the car so I ended up doing it 3 times but it is perfect now
