hey guys

was thinking bout doing some interior work on door trims, and plastic panels around.

wanna know if i was to spray paint door trims with adhesion primer and then a diff colour would this look weird?

and also does any body have any colour scheme ideas for an interior of an r33 s1? white in colour.

i had thought about white/fusion green? what do u guys think?

Greatest bit of advice... check the weather forcast before hand. I sprayed the top coat on mine, left it to dry while i went to the shops, come back and apparantly it was very windy and wet, there is now a fine coating of dirt, twigs and what i think is hair caked into the paint of my center console.... Now i have to wait for it to dry so i can sand it back and start all over again!

not interested in sprayin the plastic pieces, i was asking about spraying the vinyl door trims and rear plastic moulded sides. i already know about srayin the front of the dash.

not that stupid. the door trims themselves im after.

here is some white ans silver in an R32 gtr, if that helps....

Thats the exact interior i want for my silver 34 gtt 4 door, cept for want silver on the centre console as well to match the dash and surround. For the steering wheel i am trying to locate a series II 34 tiptronic one as they have that already looking like it, same for some interior components but not too many in the country and hardly any smash em. lol

Yes you need a special vinyl spray paint and you absolutely must have all waxes out of the original vinyl other wise the first warm day it will lift off.. also becareful with white as it can reflect alot of extra glare

now this is what im talking about. any1 else got anything like this done? need some more ideas. wanna have a crazy interior.

The vynil spray works well on interiors, we did a AE86 sprinter from the brown to black, looks like its always been black.. quick qipe down with thinners and away it goes...

as for colour combinations, you'll have to look at whats available, here is the VHT range

Colours available: Gloss Jet Black (SP941), Black Satin (SP942), White Satin (SP943), Buckskin Tan Satin (SP944), Chocolate Brown Satin (SP945), Silver Satin (SP946), Red Satin (SP947), Burgundy Satin (SP948), Dark Blue Satin (SP950), Medium Blue Satin (SP951), Light Blue Satin (SP952), Light Grey Satin (SP953), Charcoal Grey (SP954), Saddle Tan (SP955), Midnight Blue Satin (SP956), Dove Grey Satin (SP958), Dark Rose Red Satin (SP959), Camel Tan (SP960).

thinners is easy enough, just wipe down the vinyl and let it dry then apply an adhesion primer or just straight into colour?

i really want white and green, will match my photo i have in my head about the colour combo. will have ti just hunt around for the green.

also do you apply a clear on top? or is that a waste of time on vinyl?

    • Forgot to include this but this is the mid section of my steering rack that looks like it has a thread/can be turned with that notch mentioned in the post:
    • Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.
    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
    • Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention
    • So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34
