im contemplating respraying my stagea in a different colour...probably a silver with glitter (so there isnt too much difference to the colour of the door jams and engine bay)

go two tone. white on top, with a coloured pinstripe along the bodyline, (the bodyline above the doorhandles) with a solid colour/pearl underneath. white bonnet and roof... old school, but nice.

Thats what id like to do with mine if i cant get the colour match done properly for the kit. Silvery white on top, ice green on the bottom, with a 5-10ml thick metallic blue pin stripe. if i could use photoshop, or even HAD the dam,n program, id try and whip it up.

Silver is still looking pretty good...

im liking the gunmetal rims on the silver stagea

...just wondering if i should settle with respraying my car the same colour and putting the extra funds elsewhere?

yep. Even if you have a pearl put in the clear coat, a blue or green or etc. cheap way to make it stand out

i spoke to the painter about that, but he said that the pearl wont stand out too much because the base coat isnt the best for it

My car was orginally silver, now black with blue pearl... not sure if there is any blue about it LOL hasn't been sunny enough!!

All the door jams were done, everything except the engine bay and the console inside.

I think these are the only Stagea's I've ever seen in non-standard colours... I don't mind the first one, hate the colour of the second one, and the R34-fronted one looks close enough to the R33 dark purple to get away with it and look good in the process...

    • Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

    • The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/  
    • Yeah dunno why johhny posted that here with no context, just post on FB/insta bro where he put it up?  Laine had an off at T4 during Thurs prac, he's ok, car is less than perfect, they are done for the weekend, he can fill in the rest. Bando also binned it like 100m up the road.   
    • I feel there must have been a FB/insta post and the weekend did not start well at all I hope everyone is all okay
