Not 100% sure dude, came with the car. There doesnt look to be any modifications made to the head or the cam covers/centre garnish so i dare say its a straight swap.

I see, thanks!

Looks awesome!

You were at Mitcham Kebabs like 2 weeks ago yeah?

Luke, I worked for Mazda for 3 years, and thats the first car I've seen that looks good in that colour! Well done

thanks mate, i done my apprenticeship at penrith mazda.

saw the colour on cars every day and didnt stand out.

then one day, i was following an SP23 in this colour, and thought, thats the colour i want.

i needed to respray anyway, so it got done.

looks better with all the black accesories.

thanks everyone for the compliments....

makes all the effort worthwhile.

Haha!

I was the one who parked in front of you.

I'll have to remember to come say hi next time! Car looked nice from the brief time i saw it.

love the stance and the wheels!!!!

HOOOOT!

Cheers mate, fkn love the colour of your 32.

Hey mate is this your car? Or do you know who owns it? Looking to paint my car the same colour, would love to know the paint code.

Looks close enough to be Champion Blue: Paint Code - BT2

A known but also rare colour as it was specifically for the R33 GTR Le Mans Edition.

Also there is Calsonic Blue and Bayside Blue (R34 GTR) but are a shade darker.

Yeah I thought it might the 33GTR LM Blue but just wanted to make sure. I've been looking everywhere for the paint code for Calsonic Blue but can't find it. The LM Blue is still pretty awesome might just stick with that!

I think finding Calsonic Blue will be like trying to find Top Secret Gold...

As Top Secret Japan say there is no specific Paint Code as it is a mixture / blend of their own colour mixtures.

So what you could do is find a decent pic of Calsonic Blue and get the re-spray people to try and match it as close as possible.

Fujimi Models make a Calsonic R32 GTR model kit and the paint code for Fujimi say to use is H15:

Match that and you should be fine.

Or yes, like you said, stick to LM Blue :laugh:

    • Bit of a pity we don't have good images of the back/front of the PCB ~ that said, I found a YT vid of a teardown to replace dicky clock switches, and got enough of a glimpse to realize this PCB is the front-end to a connected to what I'll call PCBA, and as such this is all digital on this PCB..ergo, battery voltage probably doesn't make an appearance here ; that is, I'd expect them to do something on PCBA wrt power conditioning for the adjustment/display/switch PCB.... ....given what's transpired..ie; some permutation of 12vdc on a 5vdc with or without correct polarity...would explain why the zener said "no" and exploded. The transistor Q5 (M33) is likely to be a digital switching transistor...that is, package has builtin bias resistors to ensure it saturates as soon as base threshold voltage is reached (minimal rise/fall time)....and wrt the question 'what else could've fried?' ....well, I know there's an MCU on this board (display, I/O at a guess), and you hope they isolated it from this scenario...I got my crayons out, it looks a bit like this...   ...not a lot to see, or rather, everything you'd like to see disappears down a via to the other side...base drive for the transistor comes from somewhere else, what this transistor is switching is somewhere else...but the zener circuit is exclusive to all this ~ it's providing a set voltage (current limited by the 1K3 resistor R19)...and disappears somewhere else down the via I marked V out ; if the errant voltage 'jumped' the diode in the millisecond before it exploded, whatever that V out via feeds may have seen a spike... ....I'll just imagine that Q5 was switched off at the time, thus no damage should've been done....but whatever that zener feeds has to be checked... HTH
    • I think Fitmit had some, have a look on there (theyre Australian as well)
    • Hah, fair enough! But if you learn with this one you can drive any other OEM manual. No modern luxury features like auto rev-matching or hillstart assist to give you a false sense of confidence. And a heavy car with not that much torque so it stalls easily. 
    • Actually, I'd say all three are the automatic option. Just the different trim levels. The manual would be RSFS, no?
