hmm I think its just dark colours in general, they pretty much all suck

If I could get another R33 GTR it would be in either white or silver, those two colours are the best and much easier to keep clean. My R32 was in metallic spark silver and never looked dirty..

Yet I still find something appealing about midnight purple

I wish mine was midnight purple..

If you end up getting a respray a nice midnight purple pearl would look good, a lot of the time the midnight purple color looks like a pearl anyway.

Yer i hear that!

Not a fan of white but if i had my time over again id get silver for sure!!

But yer there was just something about the midnight purple when i checked it out that i couldnt pass up...

Maybe its like one of those things where you see other peoples midnight purple GTR's and they look awesome but once you get your own one you just get over it..

I don't know but I want silver again, I am tempted to paint my GTR silver but I CBF prepping the thing

It's tempting man because the colour isn't far off what it is now but CBF really, I think I want to go with a lighter colour

if u go respray and wanna keep that sorta colour, go hsv's version of purple. HOT

pics a repost of my mates gtr but just to show the colour

That's not a bad colour, looks great in the sunlight

I thought the pics I posted (post #1460) turned out pretty good for midnight purple (just had it resprayed). Personally I love the colour and when I get my new car its going to be a Midnight Purple III R34 GTR, although sadly this isn't happening any time soon.

that is the first time i have ever seen one, was trying to find out what they looked like ages ago and could not find one, every pic i found had an mspec one so i assumed that the mspec was standard on a gtst.

    • No. GKTech arms have spherical bearings in them. No bushes. You will not need bushes for those arms. The sphericals are a bit of a maintenance nightmare. I have replaced all of mine several times in the 5 or so years I've had them, and I have the arms out regularly to clean and lube the balls. Worth the pain on an R32, because the standard arm design is trash. If you need the camber adjustment, there are other options (than the GKTech ones), although I would still lean towards and prefer the GKTech ones, even with the maintenance load of the sphericals. The caster adjustment is also highly valuable, allowing for setting the car up to drive straight. There are a million options for these, including the GKTech ones. I've had Tein rods on mine for 20 years and the balls are much less trouble in that location. Never given me a moment's pain. All positives, no negatives. I consider them compulsory.
    • Lol yeah I ordered the clips mentioned and as far as the amayama diagrams go i think thats all I'll need. Fogured id ask, sometimes people's first hand experience doesnt always match up to diagrams haha, i guess I'll wing it and worse comes to worse I'll just deal with it as I go
    • Thanks for all that information I appreciate it. To answer your questions: - Yep that's what I mean. These guys are professional painters to so I must be missing something. It's a bit hard to explain. - With the primer landing on clearcoat, I make sure that the surrounding clearcoat is scuffed to 240 grit as my epoxy primer says that I only need to sand the area to 240 grit. - Yeah so similar to the first question, assuming that the paint landed on the unscuffed clearcoat because I've seen that happen. - Yep I want to prep the surface in that order. Only reason because epoxy primer will protect it from rust and I need that atm with this crappy Sydney weather. I think I was worried about time, if I try to put the filler down but screw it up somehow and I don't have time to sand it off and reapply it then need to put primer later that it might start to rust again so I wanted to apply the primer as quick as possible to not deal with rust.  - I just deleted some answers, I just realised after watching a video and what you said about looking at the data sheet, that I need to read the data sheet on the specific filler I'm using. It's possible now that I put epoxy primer first was a waste of time and need to go to bare metal lol
    • I did. I went to a suspension guy and he told me because I don't have adjustable camber arms it's the reason why my car veers towards the left if I take my hands off the wheel but if I drive my other every day car and take my hands off the steering wheel it goes completely straight. I think it's common with Skyline's. In order to fix the problem, I likely need gktech camber arms then nismo bushes since I have poly bushes atm, then a wheel alignment after that. With my car if I take my hands off the steering wheel on a really bumpy road before stopping at a light I have to hold my steering wheel somewhat tight otherwise my car will legit just go completely in the other direction quite quickly and I'll slam into something lol instead of stopping straight. I Believe this YouTuber had the same issue and fixed it with gktech arms. At timestmap 6:05 he talks about how the car doesn't veer anymore after installing these arms.  
    • hello! does anyone have a schematic that shows how to test the blower motor resistor for the vac system? i believe the part# is 27761-15U00. I think the resistor is toast, but would like to be able to test it somehow before i embark on the journey to find a new one. cheers! 27761-15U00
