+1 for advanced alloys. Did a great job on one of mine.

do you need to take the tyres off for this? cause i just had them put on, prob was it was the guy who stretched the tyres on mine did the scratching trying to strech them :S

i need them repaired too but if i need to take the tyres off then il wait.

i went to a place in sunshine that did a pretty good job at fixing a hairline crack in one of my rims earlier this year. The name escapes me but its the only wheel and tyre shop on the road. when your on mcintyre road coming from taylors lakes you take a left on that bridge onto berkshire road and its a minute up the road from there. pretty sure they will fix it up good for you within a week.

advanced alloys are the biggest rip off merchants going and DON'T do work reflecting their prices. avoid

i got my gtr rims powder coated by Craig @ colour ur mags, or colour ur rims, something like that (may need to substitute american spelling for colour)

'unique' guy but passionate about this work and is the favoured guy amongst the WRX boys. Work is done PROPERLY and at very good prices. Located in Highett

      It's the adhesive holding the ceramic wheel to the shaft the fails on 90% of them.

      Foreign debris, physical shock, boost leak, could be anything honestly. The danger in taking all the timing out of a tune/hitting the R&R corner is that even if the engine doesn't detonate your turbo is taking a lot of abuse from high EGT. Also, even if nothing goes wrong it is a journal bearing that is spinning at 100k RPM on boost. Eventually it goes through enough cold start/pressure cycles to wear it out.

      Possible option to replace central computer 370 V36

      By Vee37 · Posted

      I kinda accidentally saw this, and was interested, but It actually seems to replaces the whole center computer, using the existing screen and buttons. AND it may only be for a G37 and not compatible with a Japanese 370. So its not for me, but someone else may be interested to look into it. Its about $680USD. If I am understanding it right, it basically replaces/installs and android pc that integrates with the existing screen. But I could be wrong. https://gromaudio.com/vline/ The video I first saw was the following, with very little and unclear details.     Even if your not interested in the system, the video on their site was pretty comforting in showing how simple the whole centre comes out

      Import insurance in 2025

      I’m with Shannon’s for all 5 of our cars. Agreed values seem fair, premium price is okay. ($210 ish a month, all comprehensive).  Have claimed once with them for a not at fault claim with another car where my car had no damage. Was one call after the incident and an email after. Deemed not at fault so premium didn’t go up either.    I have called up and spoken with people who are not familiar with certain cars and didn’t agree with me on value or let their personal vehicle preferences effect the call. But called back later and got someone else who was more agreeable.
