hehe thanks n15mo :D

Nah I got the spoiler to go with the kit and I plan to go back to the track again and I need something for the extra downforce in the rear...

Plus its a CF URAS spoiler not a stockie :no:

hmmmmmm I think I had some pics of it ages ago in my old pc...but it died...not sure if it is in the pics I salvaged before it died though...ill check tonight...at work atm.

I think if your going to have some nice dished wheels or white or bronze etc than yeah the metallics will work well with it, but I got black wheels with dish with the intention of getting the car resprayed in the blackest black money can buy....

As for what kit I got....hehehe ill post up pics when im done :nuke:

Its a genuine item from Japan though....and its costing me an arm and a leg to get it over here but im hoping to the first if not only GTT in the country with it...well at least a genuine kit :O

I know the feeling been first aye. I've waited more then 4months on my bodykit from japan to come in then another 4months for the widebody kit to come in, i know the feeling mate. oh by the way the kit i got its GENUINE URAS D1 spec widebody kit.

hehehe nah mines different yet again :unsure:

yeah mine should be ready in another month or so.....

Part of me wishes I hadnt ordered the kit as ive been tempted to buy an R32 GTR lately...but oh well too late now ! :P

my advice. black with blue pearl is not 'different' or unique. i know of plenty of cars that have had this combo. in my mind it looks a bit tacky. a nice gloss black with an extra coat or two of clear on should give a nice deep colour. even a little bit of metallic if you want.

yeah, it's 99% going to be factory black with some more metallic, for a bit more interest in the sunlight. I like the idea of a bit more silver showing up in some light, and i think a few more metallic chips can do the job rather waste money on a silver pearl.

plus, as you can see, the side skirts and rear bumper are probably going, so if it's factory black, it's going to match other ppl's cars.

So, what is the factory black paint code for a R34? GV1???

Yep, DT Panels are looking after me at the moment :laugh:

hhmm...........

very hot 34 shonen

deepest black i would love to get my hands on hehhee

Depending on the condition of your paint work, if your still happy with your paint work and want something different head over to Paint with Pearls.

They are an american company that make really nice perals that are applied in clear coats with outstanding results.

So all you have to do is have your car resprayed in clear again, will be alot cheaper that full respray!

The colour I ordered on my Tiida is called "Sapphire Black" (B20) I like it alot it's black but with a bit of a bluey metallic fleck through it. Looks real nice when the sun hits it.

a mate of mine on his rx3 sedan has gloss black with a gold perl, looks trippy, note the added f**k around if u do scratch ur car when its got perl in it

Edited by dead32

pearl isn't happening boys and girls. Got some body kits parts that i'll most likely sell, so it's GV1 with maybe a little tweaking, we're going to see how it goes. The option is a little more metallic, but i'm not sure if i want to keep it looking as black as possible? wondering whether extra metallic might take away from that a bit..

Tiida a newish nissan? a small car? Sounds nice, might have to check their website or something...

Hey just alittle word about paint jobs, the best paint jobs are from factory.

All the guess work is takin out of spraying cars in a factory as its brand new steal and the spray gun is automated.

So dont be unhappy if your paint work is not as good as a factory paint job.

Definately agree with that. Then again, if the workshop is good and your willing to spend the $$$ then it can look even better than factory.

Do the car straight jet black, just had mine done and couldn't be happier.

Hi Guys,

First time poster, I honestly do not know anything about car paint, however my R34 is red and I want to do something with the colour, maybe respray with a pearl, can someone outline my options when it comes to working the car colour?

Look forward to any reply.

Nick

If you have the cash I definitely recommend using house of kolor candy coats. We have a 1963 Buick Riviera with a $13000 paint job, crazy application method by a hotrod painter though.

Silver Base Coat to make it reflective.

Black Over the silver base

Chilli Candy Over the Black

Eggplant Candy Over that

Chilli Candy Mixed with Clear

Eggplant Candy Mixed with Clear

Clear.

End Result is a paintjob that looks unique from every angle.

    • The attached document is fine. I just downloaded & opened it.
    • Hello, sorry for being late to join the discussion, but my clock just died on me.   Ive tried to look at Michaels digital clock repair.docx and it doesnt work maybe the file has expired.   Please let me know if you can re upload it or take some youtube videos to show us how to get the clock installed? thanks
    • I thought that might be the case, thats what I'll start saving for. Thanks for the info 
    • Ps i found the below forum and it seems to be the same scenario Im dealing with. Going to check my ECU coolant temp wire tomorrow    From NICOclub forum: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Thu Apr 11, 2013 7:23 am I am completely lost on this. Car ran perfectly fine when I parked it at the end of the year. I took the engine out and painted the engine bay, and put a fuel cell with an inline walbro 255 instead of the in tank unit I had last year. After reinstalling everything, the engine floods when the fuel pump primes. if i pull the fuel pump fuse it'll start, and as soon as I put the fuse back in it starts running ridiculously rich. I checked the tps voltage, and its fine. Cleaned the maf as it had some dust from sitting on a shelf all winter, fuel pressure is correct while running, but wont fire until there is less than 5psi in the lines. The fuel lines are run correctly. I have found a few threads with the same problem but no actual explanation of what fixed it, the threads just ended. Any help would be appreciated.

I found the problem though. There was a break in one of the ecu coolant temp sensor wires. Once it was repaired it fired right up with no problems. I would have never thought a non working coolant temp sensor would have caused such an issue.
    • Hi sorry late reply I didnt get a chance to take any pics (my mechanics on the other side of the city) but the plugs were fouled from being too rich. I noticed the MAF wasn't genuine, so I replaced it with a genuine green label unit. I also swapped in a different ignitor, but the issue remains. I've narrowed it down a bit now: - If I unplug and reconnect the fuel lines and install fresh spark plugs, the car starts right up and runs perfectly. Took it around the block with no issues - As soon as I shut it off and try to restart, it won't start again - Fuel pressure while cranking is steady around 40 psi, injectors have good spray, return line is clear, and the FPR vacuum is working. It just seems like it's getting flooded after the first start I unplugged coolant sensors to see if its related to ECU flooding but that didnt make a difference. Im thinking its related to this because this issue only started happening after fixing coolant leaks and replacing the bottom part of the stock manifolds coolant pipe. My mechanic took off the inlet to get to get to do these repairs. My mechanics actually just an old mate who's retired now so ill be taking it to a different mechanic who i know has exp with RBs to see if they find anything. If you have any ideas please send em lll give it a try. Ive tried other things like swapping the injectors, fuel rail, different fuel pressure regs, different ignitor, spark plugs, comp test and MAF but the same issue persists.
