man if that was a factory colour, i'll take it :-) that is EXACTLY what my mate is looking for, does anyone know the colour code for that midnight purple III????????? or what we should call it to get it? or if u can even still get it????

bugger, i hoped it would be a factory colour so it'd be easier to track down for my friend. God only knows what colour it is from what brand etc etc thanks anyway for the help guys, we'll just have to keep looking for a colour to paint his car cheers --Haz

I cant ermember what the plates were but i am pretty sure they werent moove, it was in an import yard on parramatta road, it was sweet. I just thought i read somewhere that there was this purple colour that came out like in series 2 R33's, which means it might be that midnight purple, did they keep that colour going for the R34's? thanks again guys --Haz

Hey all, I was just in sydney the other week with my mate and we saw this awesome R34 GTR and it was painted in the BEST purple i have ever seen, it was kinda like the purple on the new falcons, but a bit lighter and way better. Does anyone know if this is a factory colour and if so do u know the paint code or whatever is used to identify it, because my mate is a spray painter and is going to respray his car and wants a good purple, and this sure was good. Any light anyone can shed would help heaps Thanks --Haz

Hey All, Thanks for all the advice, the reason i wanted an R33 is just coz i cant afford an R34. As for the JMS R33, damn i love that car, its so sick, i'd love to buy it, but finance is sadly lacking. I wish i had seen that post about the oran park round yesterday but i was at a mates house drinking too much beer. I only live at wollongong so i easily could have driven up for the day. ah well. thanks again i will take it all into consideration and hopefully you guys can get some vids posted of the round today --Haz

Dear All, Just wondering if anyone out there had a rough idea what it would cost to build up a "decent" (I'll define what i call decent later) drift R33. It's great to read magazines and see what people are doing to there cars and the results they have achieved, but what is missing is how much it has cost them. I am saving HARD to buy an R33 and as soon and as i get it i hopefully will modify it up to go drifting. I was just wondering what you guys thought it would cost (not counting price of the car obviously) to do up an R33 with just, say, mild mods (front mount, exhaust, possibly high flow turbo, oil cooler (I have read this is important for drift cars), suspension, possibly brakes (is pad upgrade just enough or should further mods be applied?), better seat (if necessary) and of course shiny gear knob and little blue lights for windscreen wipers) :Bang: ANY light you could shed on these issues would be GREATLY appreciated so i know how much to save. (that is of course unless the "light" you shed is to tell me to go do the hard work and find out myself). I figured if ANYONE ANYWHERE would know someone here would Thanks, Haz
