Welcome to the forum.

Plenty of opportunity to put in your 2 cents.

You will enjoy great conversation, some informative, some funny and some definitely spirited.

Phil

Hey stef I,m sure yours can do the same, If you like I can show you some time.

Oh by the way, as I was saying on the phone my mufflers were cracked all the way around at the front ends both sides so I pulled them off on the weekend and welded them up, runs a bit quieter now

I need to find some one to ceramic coat the pipes before the mufflers cause they keep rusting etc , got to tidy the beast up a bit. If you know anyone that does it let me know ok

Welcome Peter,

I was the one on the weekend pushing the pram!

Brett speaks highly of a coating mob in Granville, I will be taking my headers there soon. Will have to get details.

Competition Coatings in Granville. Ask to speak to Rob 9892 2218

I had my sidepipes done by them. Excellent work. He does a lot of work for the top drag teams.

My Jet Hot coated headers did the same.
They are now just painted with silver VHT paint.
Cheers,
Bryan

Default Hey dude!

I've got a can of tyre black lying around in the garage going cheap!

Seriously though Pete, I had Jeff do them so no real idea which price is correct, I'm sure you will get an answer very soon here.
