Home from work, was sick this morning, but now I'm fine

So spent a few hours working on the front bar I'm playing with to learn how to do body work... I'm scared that it's coming up too well now and I might actually use it as my real front bar :/

Leeeeeroooooyyyyy, can I please borrow your spray gun? I wanna give this a shot.

Also where's a good place in S.E or Bayside where I can get some QM1 mixed up? Also going to need some high fill primer... where to go?

Pretty much I've got ZERO experience with automotive paints, so if any of you guys want to lend a hand or offer advice... please do. Also, will be painted in my garage... I'm going budget here, plastic sheeting to make a makeshift spray booth :D

Sounds like overspray time... You need ventilation and airflow away from the car.

old airport road hawker centre.

shopping?

see MBS, universal studios, our gardens by the bay,

singapore airport, spend as much time behind the customs gates, because it's that awesome.

did someone say old airport road hawker centre?

yep what scotty says.....

you need to keep as much dust way from the paint as possible.....

make sure you get the mixture right and practice on some thing smaller to get the flow right.

    • Just something I found searching for more info on Emotion R, apparently the ECR33 Skyline GTS25t was either originally black, or there were two of them, the black one being the original demo car, then building a white one which was part of the 1997-onwards (to at least 2008!) Cockpit Tatebayashi Tokyo Auto Salon booth demo cars. It appears that Emotion R closed down in 2008 and was declared bankrupt in 2010: http://bank-db.com/hasan/208365. Scan of a magazine with the black R33 from 1996: Wayback machine archived page from May, 2000: https://web.archive.org/web/20000529061027/http://www.emotion-r.co.jp/skyline.html Option magazine with a few photos from the Cockpit Tatebayashi booth at the Auto Salon from various years: 2002: http://www.jdm-option.com/photo/index.php?action=item&category_id=154&image_id=3507 2003: http://www.jdm-option.com/photo/index.php?action=item&category_id=137&image_id=3033 2005: http://www.jdm-option.com/photo/index.php?action=item&category_id=116&image_id=1831 In 2008 Cusco website mentions that the Cockpit Tatebayashi ECR33 was displayed at that year's Tokyo Auto Salon: https://www.cusco.co.jp/event/2008/12/post_735.html As of 2021 it appears that the ECR33 demo car ended up being exported to Florida, USA: https://rmcmiami.com/inventory/1996-nissan-skyline-r33-cockpit-tatebayashi-demo-car-big-te06-turbo-endless-brakes-lsd-450hp/ And finally here's Google streetview of the Emorion R garage in 2023 which is amazingly not only still there, but the showroom is still full of various parts in stock and funishings, etc.: https://maps.app.goo.gl/ttyEAZdZLyzermyT9 Apologies for nerding out a bit. I used to love doing this 20 years ago on SAU and got a bit nostalgic for a moment... 😅
    • Try fabricating something like this and install it under the pedals? Not sure if it's legal or not....
    • Even though I have some pretty good (brand) ratchet ringies, I avoid using them to break open tight bolts. A broken ratchet is very annoying.
