Hey Guys

Sorry if this has already been covered but im not having any luck.

i have a R33 GTS-T which already had the front guards rolled when i bought the car. Since, i have gotten new wheels which have started to peel the guards back a bit so i need to get the rolled again to stop scrapping around corners.

I have been to a bunch of panel beaters around North Ryde and some places on Victoria road and they all tell me they dont have the equipment to do the job. Can someone recommend a good place in Sydney that can get this done and what the average cost is for the job?

Also on my right rear guard i have a bit of paint thats cracked. What would you suggest to do to stop rust starting? get it repainted?

thanks for any help.

With cracked paint, I just sprayed clear coat over it. Can't tell anything has been painted on it, but it will protect it from corrosion. This was with my ke70, with a skyline, I would get it resprayed properly.

Average price for a roll job would be roughly $50 per guard, or even $45.

Around $50-$60 a guard sounds right... don't live in Sydney so can't recommend which place to go to - but with paint scrapping... get some sand paper and sand it back smoothly, then spray some primer on the cracked area (with other areas masked up of course) - then apply a few layers of matching paints then clear coat it... and it should not be noticable at all.

Good luck.

    • I don’t really have any ideas how to set the timing on the CAS 😂, sounds like the top, sounds like it maybe misfiring as well as ticking,  got the box sorted 😌, must of been a air bubble on the clutch side
    • Use a 2' length of hose (that's 2 foot, not 2 inches) as a stethoscope to localise the source of the ticking. From cam covers? From exhaust or turbo manifold gasket? From injectors? From lower down in the engine? Etc. Use a timing light to set the timing. Put Redline Lightweight Shockproof in the box. It's not the very best thing for the box, but it will take a box that refuses to engage a gear with other oil, and make it engage a gear. I had to put it in when I installed the R33 box I have in my car. It would not select ANY gear when running. Smurf jizz made it work. That was >10 years ago and I still use it. I'm stuck with it now. Failing that - rebuild the box.
    • Well done Duncan. The fuel tank bulkhead lid is also in great condition (some of mine were stuffed). These are now out of production and good ones like that are becoming hard to come by.
    • Wow that's a steal, you've done well there.
