hey all,

thinking of changing the colour of my ceffi and just want to know a few others opinions and any pictures please post up.

I want to stay away from "full-on" out there colours as it is my daily driver. I am planning on getting one of those URAS style kits.

I currently have 18inch chromes on the car too so they have to fit in.....at least for the time being.

I would like going for the VIP look but maybe not black as you cant get aftermarket tailights for them so I want to tint them......

thanks

Seriously I reakon the R33 GTR Midnight Purple looks great if your after the VIP look, also would look good with a URAS kit. You need a dark colour with chromies!

That would be my suggestion!! :ermm:

There's enough of them already lol

Black with purple flakes... Or a real deep metalic blue. Late model tail lights for shizzler.

a really nice metallic grey...

mazda and bmw have the nicest colour range i believe

I'm on this bandwagon... go a nice BMW grey colour.

you could go the phoenix gold / yellow that they brought the M3 out in ¿

very nice colour on that car but i don't know if i could picture it on a cef

(my 2c)

or! for something different, what about the purple colour that for does the XR's etc in? that's a nice colour that doesn't have that factory appeal to it :thumbsup:

Metallic silver is great, but with chromies...maybe a silver overload....

my 2c

So dave when u getting your ceffie :thumbsup:

Yeah, I'm with the silver overload opinion too... the purpe would be pretty suave though :yes:

ha ha! if someone wants to sponsor me I'll get it now ;) At this rate, I may be able to think about buying some time between Christmas and Mid next year :D

Tossing up between another R and a cef though... decisions, decisions lol! Might go R first then move over to a mad ceffy :) (Have to cure my withdrawals lol!)

im fairly keen on a colour... just cant find it...

im looking for a khaki green i saw on a bmw convertible (3 or 5 series... possibly an M) it around between 2000-2006 model... im leaning more to 2006...

heavy metallic khaki similar to the one we all know and love in JP with vskf and uras kit

people dont know what colours really suit a car...

when driving around with my gf - were always picking out hot factory colours on cars... like holden (this is the only holden colour i like) on their VX's... they have a khahki green... its half not bad... needs more metallic and green though but still

greys and khahkis etc... its what should be done!

im still trying to find a khahki similar to that green one :wave:

    • My idle is set at 950rpm though - Moving the timing around 20 degrees is not really what I'd call a calm idle. That said... neither is chop, by definition. The LS ECU likes to adjust timing to hold idle as opposed to air. It'd work, but generally speaking there'd be a discrepancy in the base idle and the IACV would want to move the timing around anyway to maintain said idle. I think I'm just going to keep the timing steady anyway. Preserve my engine mounts.  My aircon is now officially regassed. As the guy was reversing I noticed my reverse lights do not operate, along with my reverse cam. This is a bit distressing, because 100% of guides talk about which wire to connect to backup cams as "the goes with the [other color] wire". Often when doing conversions. Unfortunately the R34 colour wires aren't documented Unfortunately I had a T56 Magnum gearbox with it's reverse switch, which also isn't documented. Unfortunately there's definitely not documentation for people with both of these in the one car. Unfortunately I forgot. After many hours of this, I have a reverse cam and reverse lights again. The wire going through the trans tunnel to the reverse switch had broken. Upon inspection, it looks like this one wire had about 7 spade terminals and extensions in it.. for reasons I cannot possibly comprehend. I also spent the 750 hours required to clean up the wiring behind my head unit which now looks like this: This is a monumental improvement relative to what used to be there WRT triple gauges, head unit, traction control, wideband controller, and whatever the f**k OEM stuff still exists there in various states of connectivity/needed. Next step is to check in at the Exhaust shop to see/confirm how much clearance I have, to decide what mid mufflers or 'resonators' (which are just straight through, narrower mufflers) I can add and hopefully cut out a lot of exhaust leaks, pinhole, v-band or otherwise. But first step will be to 'take a look' before the next step.
    • Fark the AFM card and Nistune, Haltech Nexus S3, DBW, cruise control, flex fuel, dis dat.  
    • It's most likely the bolt/bush where the cover bolts back wore and allowed cover to move forward.
    • Still haven't put the injectors and R35 AFM in so we can tune the bloody thing for the HG highflow it got mid last year! I think I can forecast the upgrade path to a bigger twin scroll, external gate, Haltech, flex setup, Samsonas, dis dat, etc will be .... a while away!
    • Should have taken that opportunity to slot in a twin scroll turbo setup. Maybe next time.
