looks like the factory paint, 'super clear red' to me Al :D

Doubt it :D

Car looks like a '95 model (S1.5), Red only came out in S2. Also the colour "pops" to much in the sun, very pearly. My pics make my paint look alittle darker on my car; i would love to put the two cars side-by-side.

Al, FYI:

AN0- Super Clear Red

AR1- Super Clear Red II

I'm pretty sure the first one is your factory color...what i'd call burgundy, but Nissan Japan see it as super clear red....Super clear red 2 is a much rarer factory color

Doubt it :D

Here's some pics...1 is obviously a series 2, the other is a 1.5

Those 2 were actually owned by the same guy...I did some research on the color when I was in the process of buying my car, because I almost bought 1 in the color, and didn't think it was a factory color at the time, having never seen it before...Until I spoke to this guy (member on here) and he told me its a pretty rare factory color :D

I've got more photos of it on other cars as well...surprising how much it changes in each of the photos too...looks really dark in some, but put it out in the sun and its quite a bit different, and a much nicer red when in the light

Shes a fresh import, and the paint job was done around a month ago or so. Originally it was a maroon/burgandy colour and dont we all hate that stinkin colour :D (no offense to burgandy sky's out there).

The colour is more like a Ferrari red, very different from factory red colour that came out in series 2. When the sunlight hits the car, she lights/brightens up like a flower, looks much better in flesh these pictures dont do any justice. I cant remember the paint code now, but will get it some time soon.

If i see anyone copying my colour, i will come knocking on your door step :D

R-SPEC

yeah that was me, you were in the purple r33? :)

You copied my paint job :)

What is the name for that paint and the colour code?

Thanks buddy, appreciate it :(

You car looks very clean. I personaly love silver, as it is the easiest colour to keep looking clean. Some nice rims (dark spokes and polished dish) would really set the car and colour off. :)

It has now been just over 2yrs since my car was painted, and am still very happy with the colour choice and workmanship. Due to normal driving and SAU motokahnas it has a few chips, but that's to be expected.

if u wanna see my sky check out http://www.bebo.com/Profile.jsp?MyProfile=Y oh and ignore the stupid burnout in my vid... it was just for fun i lost my licence and i needed to just screw around for fun in my car since i missed driving it... and if u dont wanna check out my page u can see a pic of my car in my display pic :happy:

    • Pressure when IDLING, is meant to be 51PSi... So that amperage value needs to go up a fair chunk... I'd personally be factoring for more like 12amp at least on those runs, and at that point you need to hope the already there wiring doesn't drop you a volt or two, as that's a lot of fuel pressure flow drop off from 13.5 to 12V! Taking idle pressure of 51psi, means the pump will be drawing a MINIMUM of 9amps all the time based on your reading of the graph (3bar base, then allowing an extra 0.5bar for boost = roughly 51psi)
    • Hi all,  I am in the market for an R200 longnose diff out of a Z31 300ZX, or S12 RSX, DR30 skyline, or similar, in a 3.9 ratio.  Preferably a late model one with the M12 crownwheel bolts.  The only easy to find advert for one of these was my ad back in 2007 when I sold it on this forum.  I sold the diff as I had sold the car it goes to, but as it turns out, after 18 years I got the car back late last year, so now I'm looking for the diff !  If anyone knows where to find a longnose R200 LSD with the M12 crownwheel bolts, drop me a line at [email protected] - Bonus paid if soomeone comes up with the original diff (stranger things have happened !).  Cheers   Ben D    
    • Hi everyone, I used to post here a bit from 2004-2013, when I owned various Nissans, in particular my S12 RSX gazelle, which was sold in 2007.  As luck would have it, after an 18 year hiatus, the car found its way back to me last year, and over the past 11 months I have had the pleasure of restoring it with my kids.  One thing that I am after in particular is a 3.9 ratio R200 LSD for it.  I actually sold the one out of the car here back in 2007 , and it would be incredible if I could track down who I sold it to, so I can see how they have progressed over the years (and to be honest, to see whether I can get the diff back !).  Anyways, hi all and let me know "where are the R200 Longnose diffs all at these days ?  Cheers Ben D  
    • Arms will be the same as the G35 or 350Z, but as above, there was a change in the lower control arm where it connects to the ball joint.  That said, you can remove the ball joint cone from your old ball joints and fit them to the new ball joints.  To be honest, I didn't think the ball joints themselves were different. The main ball joint is a bit awkward to replace, you really need to remove the steering knuckle to press out the old one.  Some people have used tools to remove it in place, but it just seemed too hard to get to. If you are going to press out/in that ball joint, then you may as well just replace the bushings in the LCA and the compression rod.  You can buy the compression rod bushing from Nissan, but the LCA bushes, you will need to go aftermarket. Much cheaper than buying the whole arm.
    • Ha, well, it's been.... a bit of a journey. Things have taken much longer than I'd hoped. I'll probably put up a thread at some stage. Hopefully soon. The car's not done any kms since my update in June though, put it that way.
