ali-turko,

the reason that most of them can't find it on their system is that Midnight Purple III has a special Tinter in it, KK700 which is True Blazberry Prism, this is whats called a Chromalusion Tinter.

you might have seen a car at a car show that changes color on every angle as you walk around it, this is Chromalusion Technology.

so if the Paint shop doesn't have the "Chromal" Quality activated in the Paint Formula retrieval program then the color simply won't be recognised. it is also a 3 layer process. after preperation & primer there are three final processes to achieve the color.

1) an undercoat coat is applied first (ground coat to give the final color its correct effect)

2) base coat (basically the color it's self)

3) then the clear coat

it's an awesome color my mate has it on his GTR up here.

you can ring

Prinz Australia

Unit 1/20- 30 Malcolm Rd Braeside VIC 3195

ph: (03) 9580 3419 Panel Beating Equipment & Supplies

ask for Frank Rugalo (tell him the boys from PNG reccomended him)

PS: he will have to have the "Chromal" paint quality activated in either his Colorquick or Colornet Software.

here's the formular screen dumps. (don't take any notice of the pricing, it's in a different currency)

Ali-turko,

forgot to mention.

although this color has the chromalusion technology tinter in the mix it is not a tru chromalusion color. it will not change from gold to green to purple to blue as you walk around.

that is full chromalusion & be prepared to part with A$1,000 per liter.

just thought i mention that incase you come back & say i said it would change color.

none the less Midnight Purple III is a truly remarkable color, Great Choice!!

BTW, it is DuPont Performance Coating color information i have given here, & apart from Frank at Prinz it can be obtained from any DuPont Performance Coatings outlet in Australia!!

Does anyone have a pic with the colour on the car?

i geting my car resprayed and still havnt decided on a colour... please post one up if you have a pic...

Thanks

raz0r$harP, no worries, happy to be of use! we are the DuPont Performance Coating Distributors for Papua New Guinea, so just hollar if u need paint info :whistling:

Damn that looks Sweet!!!

So that spray job is 1 thousand a litre?

How many litres will it take to cover a R33 GTS-T Series 1?

i have around 5 thousand to for the spray and a little more but they are for rims (Nismo LM GT3 White GTR Rims, $2500)...

Hoiw much would i be faced with if i go the way of that paint + labour?

Edited by jakegts

jakegts,

depends on what you are calling sweet. the nissan color LX0 Midnight Purple III sure is sweet & has some color change on different angles & is probably around $400 or so per liter.

full chromalusion like Absolute Purplene has a dramatic color change, from Purple to Green to Blue to Gold & is much more striking, check this site Nissan Primera GT here http://mysticcobra.net/ogallery2.shtml

but is $1,000 per liter.

also see here

i am guessing at the prices as i am selling in a different currency.

but absolete puplene say 3 liters would be plenty for a GTS-T is $3,000 then another 3 liters of base at probably $150 so another $450, then 3 or 4 liters of premium clear coat say another $500, so your looking at $4,000 ish for materials, without taking Labour into account. depending on weather its a full strip & repaint or a rub back & blow over i reckon youd have to bank on somewhere between A$6,000 & A$10,000

But i really am Guessing, ive lived here for 13 years & not had anything to do with the paint industry in Australia & i don't quote paint jobs here i only sell the stuff, it would pay to go & get a quote from a reputabe repairer, i listed one above in a previous post, or you could ring Dupont Performance Coating direct & ask for you nearest authorised repairer.

sure makes for a hot looking ride.

ali-turko,

i spoke with out DuPont DPR rep thismorning in Brisbane, he agreed that $6-10K is a fair figure for a Chromalusion job. Big Money, but there are other options.

you could go with a Pearlescent job

or if you go to a DPR dealer you can look through all the latest color chips, there are some really cool paint coatings comming out on new vehicles these days that arent chromalusion.

we have a metalic now called XIRALLIC which is basically like the old metalic flake & comes in different sizes but instead of giving off a plain old silver reflection of the sun it gives off multi-coloured reflections & comes in different color undertones.

you really should go & talk to someone, tell them your budget & discuss what you want to acheive.

even your plain std onld nissan black, can be overcoated with say a layer of violet/blue pearl & coarse metalic (or XIRALLIC) flake, then cleared & cleared again but with a bit of Violet tinter (tinted clear) this creates all sorts of different effects! you could use 2 or 3 or even 6 layers of clear to give depth!!

finishing off to is the Key to success spending time on final coating produces great results.

a good shop will be able to do a spray out for you on a piece of metal to show you what your getting before it rolls out of the booth.

don't dismay, you've got many options!

seriously go & talk to a professional painter, he will know what you want!

Hi Guys,

I need some help here. Can someone provide me with the paint formula for the mnp2, LV4 ?  

I looked everywhere on the internet for it and the links above are now broken. Already bought KK760 but need the rest of the formula.

 Thanks

    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.  
    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
    • In my head it does make sense to be a fuel problem since that is what I touched when cleaning the system. When I was testing with the fuel pressure gauge, the pressure was constantly 2.5 bar with the FPR vacuum removed. When stalling, the pressure was going up to 3.0 bar (which is how it should be on ignition).
    • ECUtalk pages don't mention they support the ABS computer (consult port has more than one CAN), so you might just need a different scan tool. But, I would expect ABS is a different light to the brake warning/handbrake light, do you see an ABS light come on for a few seconds when you turn the key from ACC to IGN? But since you said: I'd have a look at the ABS sensors in the rear hubs to make sure they are not damaged, disconnected etc.
