I have seen many cars at car shows with hopeless paint jobs. All you need know a days to enter a car at a car show is the entry fee.

You want a top quality job done then unfortunately it will cost you top money. As quality takes experience and ALOT of time, thus why it is expensive.

If you want a great job contact YLWGTR2 (Troy) or ask Mavric which panel shop his car is at.

That's true, but the boys I'm referring to have produced some very nice work, and don't charge top dollar. Sure, Top Money= Top Job, but it can be done for less dosh as well......e.g the MACHNE 200sx, made front cover of HPI, if I told you how much that spray job cost u guys would call me a liar.

Last time i checked, you can't get onto magazine covers with an entry fee.....

ive seen some real bad cars on covers of magazines recently

it seems like they are running out of cars to feature so they just pick any shitbox.

anyway back on topic

ive seen lots of cheap paint jobs look good from pics and from the distance

but once you come up close you find fish eyes, sink back, buff marks etc etc etc

but thats wat you get for a cheap job i guess

Well i got a quote for around $1800 for a 2 pak colour change respray of outside panels and door jams only including fixing of minor dints all around and scratches.

Sounds about right.

After all its not a "COMPLETE" spray job, i.e panels, door jams, under boot carpet, engine bay, underbody.

Never heard of or seen any of their work before.

    • Aren't these run off of high voltage in OEM applications? Like 200+V. Or at least 48V in mild hybrids. At ~18,000 BTU ballpark nominal capacity the power draw is at what, 2.2 kW? ~185A is a pretty crazy amount of amps. At 200V it's only 11A. The 70A nominal kits with up to 100A peak draw I see for stuff like classic Porsches have pretty substantial compromises like shutting off at idle and not actually managing to keep the interior cool in hot conditions because they can only output like 6000 BTU. IMO if I had to pick what high amp draw component to retrofit to these cars I would start with the engine fan, not the AC compressor. You need an ~850-1000W brushless fan, something like this: I would love to see the data but I would bet that whatever you save by running the AC compressor in a more efficient regime with an electric motor you're probably losing to conversion losses anyways. It's not really like a clutch fan where you're losing power all the time even when it's nominally disengaged and it gets worse as it engages because the envelope tracking isn't that precise.
    • I am a volunteer marshal at the Grand Prix. As such, I get a "friend / family" ticket. It is a general admission ticket, valid for all 4 days. Anyone interested in my spare pass, please DM me. Ticket is "free, gratis and no expense".
    • agreed, the price vs gains it’s there.   unless you go china supercharger. Temu racing anyone?😂https://www.facebook.com/share/15nkfpsg7Z/?mibextid=wwXIfr that was one of the ones that popped up on my feed 😂
    • Bit of a long shot but if anyone has 4 of these laying around in new or near new condition. I will happily buy them off you.     https://skylinespares.com.au/product/stabilizer-door-glass-inner-new-8032404u03/?srsltid=AfmBOop6L5EgUFaHPHiVXoAhv5k8aJYwc77nGmoApp-hY03OiOsNVaOv Thanks 
    • I'm wondering is the Toyota and Mazda "collaboration" could see that new Toyota ???G20 ??? turbo engine that they have been showing off recently into a future MX5, apparently it's good for 400hp out of the box That could easily, possibly, be much better than the last collaboration between Toyota and Subaru with the boxer engine in the twins
