Hey guys, you might recall my previous post "Just got my new skyline".

Anyways, the car has been nothing other than great, i've been loving the fresh paint work and how it runs!

Yesterday some weak jealous f*&k head keyed my car (drivers side) for no reason - right down to the bare metal.

Has anybody had their car keyed? How much did it cost to get it fixed? And what was the result like?

Thanks for the comments.

And i hope the tossers get theirs back in a big way.

I had a kid on a bike ride into the side of mine when i was parked at a mates, did two 5 inch scratches, one at the rear and the other over the door and front right panel (Bounced twice into it).

Got a quote - for getting the whole side of the car resprayed

$800-900

I hate kids

I got the front of my bonnet key with the F word on it, I got my frontbar repainted and bonnnet done just under $400 , did it through a company called wizard smash repair, he done it cheap i think becuase im a forum member on boost cruising.

He done a great job with paint matching. I'll be going 2 see him soon again, after i mange to but a nice scratch in my frontbar.. :-(

What i found is that most quotes for my frontbar and bonnet were about $600 to $700.

I've had my car just over a year, and I have had 1 tyre slashed, my car spat on twice whilst i was driving. F-word keyed into my bonnet. Screws put under tyres about 4 times, I've gone through a hole set of tyres due to screws and being slashed.

So i now try and park my car in sight @ all times.

I live in wynnum and I seem to be picked on alot, but i think alot of other cars get it done 2. Just jelauos bored kids with nothing better 2 do than be destructive.

whoa dude.

stick a camera up or something, thats rediculous

Madtrang, that's crazy dood - i feel your pain. Something has to be done, ass whoopings need to be handed out! Im going to get a new car alarm with microwave sensors and see how that goes, i know it will give allot of false alarms, but i can happily put up with that rather than have the car ****ed up again.

That sounds very personal dude, who's toes have you stepped on?

Yeah its shit like this that makes me feel better about going an r32 gtr.. more understated. I feel sorry for all you guys.

Man if I caught somebody doing that to my car, It would almost be worth it-because of what I would do to him. :cheers:

someone keyed my last car .. before the act, it was a beautiful black car, which I cared for a lot and loved. afterwards, it felt tainted and I was so upset I couldn't even stand to look at it.

i hate the people who debadge and key people's cars. it is cheap, vile, and the lowest of all destructive acts towards cars, because it means absolutly nothing. whether it's because of jealousy or whatever else, I hate these people, and I don't use the word 'hate' lightly. :rant:

    • Yes...but look at the numbers. There is a tiny tiny fraction of the number of Joules available, compared to what is used/needed. Just because things are "possible" doesn't make them meaningful.
    • Thanks for taking the time to post that ! If anything changes or happens please do update us. 
    • Somehow Vertimass/Oak Ridge National Labs has figured out a catalyst that can convert ethanol into C9-C10 hydrocarbons in basically a single step without ending up with a bunch of ethylene or similar waste products: https://patents.google.com/patent/WO2023224867A1/en I still don't think anything like this will keep us from needing to transition to EVs regardless along with all kinds of other electrification, but things like this will go a long way towards alleviating the problem of how to electrify things like planes. Renewable diesel is seemingly an easier problem as well, Chevron is already running refineries for the stuff and the primary feedstock is tallow and other waste fats from agriculture.
    • Ok so I have sorted everything with my uniclutch and  i can offer up a bit of feedback and some things that might help others.    I found problems with factory damper line. Weird shit and had trouble with peddle adjustment    I used this https://au.gktech.com/products/r33-gts-t-skyline-braided-clutch-line?_pos=2&_sid=22b01b9b9&_ss=r Also when adjusting peddle leave a bit of play. You can get into a over stroke condition easy.. Make sure you can push the slave forward after adjusting to confirm fluid can return to master then you will need to pump it up heaps…..not sure why but that’s how it is.    last thing the splined adapter is machined perfectly. If your input shaft is old like mine was I would put a bit of valve grinding paste on it and stroke it like a 15 year old. Just to give it a tad more clearance and to better match it to the spline.    reason is on a near flat shift I have had situation where the peddle returns a millisecond after you lift from the clutch. No slip or anything but I reckon this is due to tolerance on the spline being way tighter than stock clutch and binding for a sec. I think this will go away but also my spline was old. Box is old so I guess I should have checked better. It’s a super neat fit.    it feels light as and holds awesome without any noise
