  1. No it doesn't matter I'm just asking for hell of it... It matters in the sense that its easier to find a charcoal grey metallic KH2 touch up can over a Gun grey metallic KH2 can. Also cheaper.
  2. Other than this does anyone know if there is an actual difference between the two different named paints with the same code?!
  3. Thank you! Yea ive thought about this im just not sure how much thats gonna run me. I will look into it thought so thanks for the advice.
  4. Hello all! Hope you are well. I just have a quick question. I have a few small chips in my paint and I'm looking to get a touch up bottle of paint for this. I have a 1991 R32 GTR painted in KH2. When looking for KH2 I find allot of Charcoal Pearl Metallic KH2 and obviously that's a different name from Gun Metallic Grey KH2. The code of KH2 is obviously the same but names are different. Did Nissan just change the name at some point but they are the same paint or if I buy the Charcoal Pearl Metallic KH2 it will be different from my current paint on the car. Thanks for the help in advance. Have a wonderful night/day and I look forward to hearing from some of you!
  5. My bad. I was under the wrong impression. Timing is not something I fully grasp among other things. In your opinion do you think this could have to do with the timing belt? Like i said i understand its hard to really tell form a few second clip but the timing belt and the tensioner pulley and spring were replaced and that would be my main guess as to where the sound is coming from but im not too mechanically savvy to make a detailed guess.
  6. Also is this something i should be worried about or is it just going to be something thats there or maybe might work itself out? I was assured it wasn't anything crazy and the engine wouldn't be damaged from this sound production but just want to check if anyone else has had this problem or something similar. I know its hard to judge it just from description and a short clip but anything helps. Here is a link to it in youtube form if the .mov doesn't work.
  7. Hello my name is Ben and I'm new to this website and forum but I am in search of help finding the problem with my 1991 R32 GTR. Back in October the head blew out a coolant path and had to be removed and welded and fixed so cylinder 6 would not have coolant draining into the cylinder. It worked and was put back on the car with new metal gaskets from a tomei gasket set and a slew of other new parts like a Kevlar greddy timing belt, new water pump, new exhaust guides in the head, all new rubber hoses all over the engine bay(because the others were 28 years old), new mishimoto radiator, new tensioner, tensioner spring, and along with other small things all over the engine bay. During the process of having the head off he cleaned all the throttle bodies which he then found out from someone that builds rb's that he shouldn't have done that(not sure why). When it was all said and done and put back together my mechanic didn't want to give the car back until he looked into a sound coming from the engine bay at idle. It sounds like a whining or whiring sound if you will. It cant be heard when moving but at a stop and idle it can be heard quite loudly in the car and standing outside of it. My mechanic thinks it might have something to do with the throttle bodies being cleaned but is not sure. The car runs and drives great(better then before it broke). He is not positive what the sound is and asked all his other mechanic friends in the area and had them listen to it and they weren't sure or 100% on what it could be either. Just hoping someone could help me out. My initial thoughts are the Kevlar belt making the sound because it is tighter and doesn't have as much give but I'm not sure. Attached is a video of the noise. Clip isnt very long but it gets louder if you rev it up to about 2k and then it quites down a bit. If you have any ideas please help me out. IMG-6232.MOV
