Just had a set of R34 GTR rims repaired which included repairing gutter rash (on the lip and the spoke which is a pain) and respraying. I think matching the colour of this rim is quite a difficult thing to do, but this repairer, through trial and error, has the paint code and it is a near perfect match.

Might save others a fair bit of time and hassle.

They are:

Matt Coleman

Wheel Solutions

Off Church St Richmond

0412 553455

I've used them twice and both times great results, and I have no interest in this other than to be helpful.

Yes yes, what did it cost???

I have a set of 18" Te37's that need repairs.

I reckon give the guy a call and get a quote as your situation could be quite different to mine. Are they painted or anodised?

i'm thinking of getting my R34 GTT wheels done - how long does it take? and ball park cost cause I got gutter rash on two wheels. Did you have to balance your wheels afterward?

Best to call Matt at Wheel Solutions Richmond and ask him directly. He'll fit tyres and balance etc.

I just dropped off my set of Volk LMGT Nismo rims. One is so damaged no other place would even look at it - Matt is really cool and agreed to have a look at it. I got my fingers crossed he will com through with the goods.

I just saw your wheel :) your right about it being quite damaged.

I just had my new wheels put on my GTR.

Matt and his boys do a sensational job. They're knowledge in wheels and fitments is second to none.

Yeah, Matt is a top bloke...mate, I love my wheel so much, I hope he can fix it...he said he's started on it and there's some hope....

I think if he can't fix it, then no one can. I got my fingers crossed.

did he fix it!?

Still waiting...the thing is, my LMTG4's are limited edition Nismo spec ones. There was only like 200 made, so it's going to be really hard getting another wheel so I am all in hope now.

      One Headlight isn't working - Driver Side Fuse Keeps blowing

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      That's a short. Find the short. It will be somewhere between that fuse and the headlight. Start by removing the plugs from the back of the headlight and dimmer switches, and measure resistance to earth. Supply side (power from the fuse) should have none. The other side should have resistance compatible with whatever globe(s) is there (which is relatively easy to say for a normal globe, perhaps not as easy to say for LEDs). Anyway, if you have very low resistance, you defo have a short. Then you just have to run the wiring like you're running the bowel of a dog (on the operating table) that has swallowed something it wasn't supposed to.

      One Headlight isn't working - Driver Side Fuse Keeps blowing

      By kevboost7 · Posted

      Hey guys, need help figuring out why my driver side (RH) fuse 15amp keeps blowing. The Driver Sides Headlamp is out, i replaced these a long time ago with LED ones that were working for 1-2 years. Now, the driver side light is out and i traced it back to a broken fuse. I replaced the 15 amp fuse in the engine bay and as soon as i flip the headlight on, it blows the new fuse. Any idea what's going on?

      I found the same with Subaru’s.  I own and love the SG9 Forester, after that model 2008+, Subaru threw the ugly stick at all their line up and somehow managed to make them look worse with every succeeding year.  lol

      It's something we all have to consider as time marches on. Also consider lifted rally MX5 conversion at that point.

      I should be fine for a few more years, whilst I do have arthritis I also exercise and do mobility training every day to keep as fit and healthy as I can, military life, which is the actual cause of most of my joint issues, has set daily regimes, which I weirdly enjoy I also train alot smarter now, not really focusing on lots strength or puffy muscles, I'm more focused on maintaining what I have for my future older self, I actually train as much mobility now as I do exercising Check out this "simple" drill I have been doing daily prior to training now for a while now, this has worked wonders in my all round mobility
