Great Ocean Road

Hey there EssDub :) Cheers for the spring recommendations in the other thread. It's too bad I live east of the border now, miss all the good times we had in the hills...

There is always the Great Ocean Road to have some fun on :D

That's for those who don't know any better. Personally I prefer:

• Healesville-Kinglake Road
• Gembrook - Launching Place Road
• Mt Baw Baw Road
• Donna Buang Road

and many others :) None are as close to town as the twisties in the Adelaide Hills though.

Fitted the Omori boost gauge with dimmer circuit today. Was expecting it to be a quick job but my alternator belt coincidentally snapped when I went for a test drive =_=
 
 
 
Had my work cut out for me with an overtightened alternator pivot bolt...

Mmm Chivas Regal...

Sdubs look so nice in black. Nice ride

Welcome back to the world of MR2s!

The long awaited respray has been completed and I thought it would be apt to take a nice photo. I'm against the sunset at Sandringham Yacht Club. DT Panels did a quick and nice job and I have few faults to pick with the paint job.
 
Also removed all the nasty door tint using a $19 steamer I got from Godfreys. Made the job so easy and you can use the steamer to clean all sorts of things!
 
 

What'd you pay for the respray? I love that this car's being restored to immaculate condition.

The cost was 3k including all prep work and damage repair. Dropped it off on a Friday and drove off on the Saturday afternoon after.
 
Recently I have been experiencing farting and hesitation. Took a quick look at the ignition system and found that the dizzy cap is quite worn. $161.40 from a local dealer

Did that include the removing of quarter windows, side trims etc...? Or was it just a mask and spray?
 
I live 5 mins away from them so I just might goto them for a simple respray in the future.
 

Just have a chat to Vu, prices are listed at http://www.dtpanels.com.au/index.php/services.
 
It's not going to be a $10k respray but quality will be very good. (Yes I did get $10k quotes from some places!)
