Any one know the amount of colour coats and then clear coats on the GMG R32 GTR out of the factory? I know the colour is Nissan's KH2, but I have a body kit in mind and want it fitted after spraying and also want the bonnet resprayed to match the cars exact colour.

Also, what would it cost to get a kit + bonnet resprayed? I will probably take my car to damage control because I have some rust that I want them to clean up for me as well.

thats reasonably 'cheap' for what you are having done.

not having the door seals/engine bay/etc etc done?

i was going to get mine done in calsonic/bionic blue, before i decided to sell it, was looking at about $7,000 for that, but i *know* that would have been a good job.

umm depending if you have had any past experiance and how confident you are. could do the prep work your self, such as getting the car primed up and everything, takes a while and your car while look funny for a while but it really cuts down man hours therefor taking a huge chunk out of the cost,

me and my mate worked on priming his hilux mini truck every weekend, took a while but that was because we were shaving door handles etc.

it is time consuming but the longer you take to get the primer on there right and sanding it back so its 100 percent perfect the better finish you will get.

this is my mates car preped and when he got it sprayed >_< hope this helps, if it doesnt then shoot me >_<

    • Yeah, plenty of air flow, there is a dedicated path that feeds the air in to the OEM intake tube behind the bumper As for a "tangible effect", maybe, but getting the pod/intake air out of the hot engine bay is worth it psychologically to me, even if it gives no performance difference, so the tangible effect in my Lizard brain saysss yessss  In the end, to me a tangible effect isn't always about performance, sometimes it a sound or a look, or even a...... feeling  Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga
    • yeah first and reverse is where you will find clutch release issues (whether hydraulic or mechanical) because the difference in revs required is the highest there; particularly changing down from 2nd to 1st when still moving. To be clearer though, it is possible that the clutch release bearing is the wrong height. This is less likely than a hydraulic issue but it is not unheard of when you are mixing and matching
    • Quite right, if you make it to that pension you deserve every cent
    • Hi all, Restoring r33 series 1 rb25det. All the heater hoses were on their way out, have replaced them and put it all back together. After testing I noticed a small leak from behind the head on the actual metal water line to the turbo when cars warm. I tried running a longer hose over it but it kept leaking...   I am about to take the (stock) manifold off again😔 to change the water line does any one have any lines they recommend? I was looking at Aeroflow Turbo Oil & Water Line Set but not sure what everyone else recommends. Car is completely stock but want to upgrade turbo eventually. it looks like ill have to disconnect a lot just to replace these lines so if there's anything else recommended to do please let me know. Thank you in advance!
    • From memory, on the R33 GTSt at least, while everyone says "It's not adjustable", I found when I changed clutches in mine, it just needed a small adjustment on the rod length. But be very wary here, as you could end up trying to push the pushrod in the master too far, or blowing out the slave.   Most likely though, if the master/slave isn't bypassing internally or leaking out, then the throw out is the wrong height compared to the fingers on the clutch, so when it moves to disengage the clutch, it isn't 100% disengaged. You can check part of this out too by jacking the car up, having the engine running, put your foot on the clutch and try to engage 1st gear. If it goes in pretty easy (Compared to the ground) and/or the wheels start turning a fair bit and it takes a bit too much brake pedal to bring them back to a stop, this is likely the issue.  I'm not sure if you can adjust the height of the forks etc in these though, it's been that long since I've touched any RB gearbox.
