Iv got one, they are pretty shit
only good for real little thing/hard to get to places , plus makes a big mess every where.
really depends on the size of the air compressors you use
we have a $25 one from topmaq and goes well even with beach sand, just doesnt like the drift wood and shellsprobably pot luck with the cheap ones
beach sand? salt .. bare metal .. rust?

So after trying to fix the 1G-EU overheating problem / just wanted to take it apart for the hell of it, i found it had a blown head. Wasn't hard to guess
So i brought a 1G-GE and a 1JZ-GE
-
Haven't made any yet.
But have got some plans........ But... they are only for the MA supra and mine is a GA supra, so not to sure if the mounts are different (need to pm deaf_rattle/look through this photos with detail)

sanding is homo!
well have painted the engine bay and all the jams
looks a lot better in real life. not this pink shit
-
sand it all off (best as you can really and then just cover the shit out of it in primer)
if you went back to bare metal, etch primer then primer
http://www.trademe.co.nz/Trade-Me-Motors/Car-parts-accessories/Paint/auction-313312889.htmAlso does 3 liters for cheaper. I used this stuff on my Gem with a decent 2k clear coat which is the expensive part but can find good deals on TM
What..? lacquer.... 2k
first off lacquer is cheap and wont last long and putting 2k clear over it will make it last a little bit longer...but still not that long

This is probably a retarded question but....why not paint it the original red colour? (or as close as you can get from a colour chart)
Would suit the car to have an 80's colour on it.
Along the lines of what Mikuni said, cars like this usually look better with simple, clean paint jobs.
Problem is. The colour you see on the car now isnt its original colour, so colour charting it was hard....... and the car is faded as hell
so yea iv got my colour now and all payed for . and yes its a solid colour
it like the SV6 colour but a little darker
............Diablo red ............
fuk i hope it looks good
ps: paint is cheap
-
me too!
Year Make Model Colour
1998 SUZUKI RG150E RED

-
my bad. its the shades of red, its going to be red. Thats all i know so far
im thinking pearl or metallic is a no go.
also that infiniti has no pearl
im liking that SV6

-
not too sure on this now
Thoughts?? im so lost!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yea.. na ???????
-
Been colour shopping (there are piss all red cars for sale in plamy) and going thought the colour charts is just too hard
going to go for something a long the lines of this infiniti thing. just darker
-
the crown M series isnt it ?
-
If you can fab engine mounts a 1jzge or 2jzge would be my preffered option, if you find one from a crown it will go in piece of piss
here are some xJZ mounts for ma6x drawings if ur wanting to go this way
