I have recently bought some paint to paint the front bumper as it was badly scrathed and chiped, being a white car I just bought nissan white paint and it matched fine.

The problem is at work a friend owns a skyline which is a dark Gun Metal grey colour and we cant find the Paint Colour code in the engine bay?

Does anyone know where you can find the colour code for the paint in skylines? It must be somewhere , otherwise how do panel beaters match up the excact colour.

I know that in Australian model cars , the colour code is always printed, but these japanses imports i don't have a clue.

It's usually on the manufacturers plate under the hood. Should be represented by three charachters, being two numbers and a letter.

An example of whats usually found on the same plate would be -

.................Nissan Motor Co LTD Japan

............................E-HCR43

Chassis No: HCR32-016693

Model: RCR32GASM AA

Colour code: KG1 G 130

Engine: RB20DET 1998 cc

Transmission / Axle : RE4R01A RC43

Few examples -

AN0 - Burgandy

KH2 - Gunmetal

Hope this helps ;)

... But we are in reference to Skylines here Dlude as the topic and forum name suggests ;)

BN6 is the Blue color code for the R33 Skyline, I think however the electric/bayside blue (caymen) color for the R34 Skyline is TV2.

Some other colors for the R34 include -

KV2 - Silver

WV2 - Pewtar

GV1 - Black

QM1 - White

QX1 - Pearl White (3 layered pearl)

EV1 - Yellow

AR2 - Red

LC2 - Midnight Purple 11 (only 300 or so made)

Hi there ppl..

I'm relatively a new member of this great online forum.

I'm looking to buy a S2 R33 96 model upwards hopefully within the next few weeks.. and I've been looking for quite a while now. I have seen a few cars being sold privately and both of them had been blatently clocked back... one car I saw had a re-spray and I couldnt work out what was the exact paint code on it.

Could anyone please let me know what are the R33 paint codes to look out for on the blue plates.

Any other advice in purchasing a skyline would be greatly apreciated.. as I'm trying to get as much stock as possible and would most probally go through a dealer.

Cheers

Taj

    • I don't know for sure, but I'd expect them all to be interchangeable given the diff end and hub end don't move/change between any C34 series. Often Nissan will change part numbers and the aftermarket follows those year ranges; but the original part number change doesn't mean other parts won't fit. The change could be a change in material, internal parts or even just supplier. For example, all the RB gearbox to engine bolts are no longer available and there is a new part number instead. The only change is they went from cadmium plated bolts to zinc plated due to the issues manufacturing with Cadmium. They look different but work the same.
    • One year is a bit concerning. Did you try contacting GSP? It says 5 year warranty on the box if I remember correctly. I'm also running their driveshafts on my S2 Stagea.   You could check the part numbers on Amayama for your year. Here's the link for my 1998 which gives the 39100-23U60 part number. Well, that and 39100-23U70. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/epc/nissan-japan/stagea/wgnc34/6649-rb25det/trans/391 What does it say for yours?
    • I ordered a GSP Front R/H Axle from here - https://justjap.com/products/gsp-premium-front-driveshaft-r-h-nissan-r32-r33-r34-skyline-gtr-stagea-4wd#description It lasted around a year before one of the boots blew out. I'm lowered, but I have GKTech roll center adjusters. One year seems a little premature. I think I'm going to spend the extra money on an OEM cv axle this time. This website - https://tfaspeed.com/collections/nissan-stagea-wgnc34-x-four-parts/products/nissan-stagea-awc34-260rs-rb26-right-front-axle-drive-assembly Makes it sound like the readily available OEM CV axle will only fit 11.1999 Stagea and up (mine is a 2.1997 S1). The JustJap listing didn't mention any years or anything for the GSP axle. Amayama shows '11.1999' and up as well for that part number. As well as 'plastic boot type'. See attached picture. So I guess my question is, does that axle (39100-23U60) really only fit S2 Stagea? It's the front driver side. If it does, I'd love to buy that instead of rolling the dice on another GSP. I've found that OEM one cheaper here: https://www.partsfornissans.com/oem-parts/nismo-jdm-r32-r33-r34-skyline-gtr-r32-gts4-right-front-axle-3910023u60 and here https://www.nissanparts.cc/oem-parts/nismo-shaft-ft-drive-3910023u60 Just a little confused because the JapSpeed listing for the GSP front driver axle doesn't mention any specific years or anything and it fit my S1 Stagea fine. So will 39100-23U60 fit my S1 Stagea even though technically it says '11.1999' and up? What would have changed? Thanks.  
    • Thanks for the info. The only "Issue" I've had with the shifter is I always found the throw between 4th and 6th gear too close. I'm always worried to shift into 4th accidently and sending my motor to the moon. Adam LZ recently came out with a video and stated Serialnine revised their shifters to correct this and will change all the revised parts for 150$. Strangely enough, I contacted Serialnine right after and they denied it and said it's bullshit. I found that strange as he's a distributer. I'll keep this forum post updated on that saga.
    • Yep that is correct. It allows you to adjust the short throw range from what I can tell
