Hey guys,

Ive just bought my skyline, she's the old outcast if you know it, and planned to respray her and redo the interior... I love the car, but want to make it my own..

I had planned to start later in the year, but as some a hole decided to change lanes in an intersection and take out most of my passenger side (don't know how you cant see a bright yellow skyline??!!?!) I figure seeing as she is in the shop, I may as well start now.

Can anyone point me in the direction of a good spray and/or custom interior place in Adelaide?

Also costs involved if you have personal experience?

Cheers

i am guessing by a good spray your referring to a spray painter?? if so then no personal experience but have had mates go through All Type Crash Repairs and they seem to be very happy.

In regards to getting interior trim done, the only place i have heard off is Willshire "http://www.willshire.com.au/" trimmers.

All Type Crash for Spray painting, haven't used them myself, but hear and see good things.

Interior wise, I suggest Signature Vehicle Interiors, have worked on a certain forum members cars, and the results are awesome.

+1 for willshire

hopefully the side wasnt too badly damaged, doing a whole side respray is big $$ being in the trade and whatnot

He clipped the end of the passenger door, and proceeded to take a shot at every panel on the way back. Pulled a nice number on the wheel arch and my suspension..

I'll definitely check those guys out! Anywhere I can see pics of said members interior?? ;)

Thanks for the info guys

Nvm, realized there was a link! Work looks good, any idea on costs for interior works?

Said forum members interior is shown on that website. Price will depend on material used, and what is being done. Best to email/call to get a quote.

Too easy, thanks a heap for the info

I would highly recommend All Type, have had small bits resprayed by them, Was very satisfied.

What parts of your interior are you looking to re-trim? General price/figures would be dependent on how crazy you would want to go.

ie are you looking to simply re-trim your seats/door panels?

Everything pretty much, depending if I decide on a colour change for the car, the interior is all matching... So door inserts, front and back seats, dash etc, boot setup as well

I did some of my 33 interior myself but had everything else done through Exact Fit in Newton - rear seat, roof lining, door and rear inserts, gear and hand brake boots and sun visors (got them to run red stitching) and the parcel shelf with a custom logo.

I supplied the material for everything bar the roof lining and visors - I bought the material from Velo when I had my Milano seats made (used the same rolls of red and black that Velo used on my seats). This helped to keep the costs down.

The interior was done a few years ago now and I'd have to check to be sure but from memory I paid $1-1.2K for the lot, including all materials (minus the Velo seats). And the quailty of the work is excellent, enough to help the car win awards at Extreme Horsepower 2009, the Skyline Nationals 2010, and recieve a feature in HPI last year.

Attached photos are fairly poor quality but it gives a rough idea.

For comparision sake, the quote from Willshire would've got half the interior done.

    • It's actually really good advice. And I do try to do it. I actually have 2x 3KG dumbbells that sit right beside where I sit. And I look at them a lot. Use them a little. But I'm trying to do more with it. At the moment I'm going through a heap of weight loss too which will help. I cracked into the 85kg mark this week. My weight used to have me sit consistently between 93 to 95KG! That definitely doesn't help. I've also got POTS, which flared up after I got slapped with COVID a few weeks back, and POTS really smashes fatigue and stuff into you, and has a thing even called "excercise fatigue". Basically even the minorest "excercise" (walking from the garage to the house) causes fatigue! And one of the treatments (Other than a med I'm on) is also... Excercise... Ha ha ha So it's why I'm trying to play the game of "might as well" and trying to push through things. For ADHD specifically, the general recommendation is "excercise". When you dig deep into it though, while any excercise is good, the best type is "explosive" excercise. So training for a sport like squash, tennis, even soccer. Things where you need to get the whole body able to "explode" into a different direction change. They've found with explosive sports, (I can't think of the proper term they have for it) that it actually makes the brain grow and become bigger in specific areas. The areas where ADHD causes those parts of the brain to be smaller than normal! But definitely, trying to push myself, and break those bounds mate, and get healthier!
    • Be more active mate.. , not taking the piss ❤️, your long term health will love you for it I would think something like a kettle bell or 2 laying around in areas you go past during the day would be awesome for ADHD.... "Oh look, a kettlebell", and exercise helps your brain health as well My mates son was a bit of a problem child, diagnosed wirh ADHD, and some other things that had his brain occasionally doing loops, until we got him into a training program, the difference after he started training was amazing, he had more focus, and his fitness levels exploded, it is like he is a totally different kid to be around Brain chemistry something something Stay fit stay strong mate
    • I had never actually looked into it, but aren't onboard compressors a thing in trucks?
    • Read the ECU for fault codes or have someone else do it. A faulty coolant temperature sender is usually listed in ECUs. If the sensor itself is not busted it can also be a bad ground connection. Or in a really unlucky case, damaged wiring.
    • Can't be a Futjitsubo as those are made with a flex piece and Reimax is smaller in pipe diameter. If anything it is closest to a Mines pipe, but evidently it is not an actual Mines pipe.   Classic word humor
