Hey peoples,

I have a 1993 r33 gtst.

It been gunmetal since the day i bought it but am kinda looking for a change.

My idea is to have the car painted a really glossy white with a gloss black bonnet.

would love to hear some opinions on this or other suggestions...

How about a deep glossy black with bronze wheels? :D

I used to like the look of a white car with carbon bits here and there, but now that my car looks like that, im kinda over it :)

That car look ssooo sexc as it is...y screw with perfection, If i had to pick a respray colour id go metalic black with black rims. But if she was mine i wouldnt even consider it : )

im not gonna tell you you should do your car harliquin, thought someone would have already said that... if your gonna go white, a custom pearl in it would look trick... like gold or something.

;) Maybe even white with blue pearl?

Your cars hot. Seen it in the flesh. I love it.

If you had to have a change I might repsray it a different shade of Gun-Metal, maybe the colour that comes on the new mazda's or VE comodores...

Or maybe get the Rims powder coated black

That if you need a change, not saying it'll improve the look though:)

that is one nice car! love it as it is, what front bar? looks tough, never seen it before either.

If you want to paint it white/gloss/pearl, go for it, will look great anyway. And a black bonnet always looks nice on a white car. But I reckon your gonna have to change your rims to more suite a white car, either gold or black with polished lip I reckon. All depends on your preference, not ours :P

hey all its a 400r front bar, this car looks tops in the flesh, but theres always room to move, anyone got any pics of black bonnet on grey car that might break it up a bit more. Ive always loved gloss white with black but its a lot of money and effort to change the colour of the car and depending on how much you want to spend there's still going to be somethings like engine bay that might end up left grey.

Hey Jarrod,

Yeah im thinking i'll leave it the same colour, spend the money elsewhere on the car. am considering having my bonnet sprayed black though. do ya think it'll look good on a gunmetal car??? does anyone have pics of that??? i'll probably paint the wing on the spoiler black to. wat do people think about that?

cheers

mm i'd like to see some pics before i could really imadgine what it would look like but i think with your gtr spoiler i dont think it would look good with bonnet and the whole spoiler, mabye either only paint the middle wing bit of the the spoiler and the bonnet or if anyones got pictures what about get the bonnet roof and boot/spoiler.

i'll give a couple of places a buzz for you tommorow but shouldnt be too expencive.

    • The final part arrived today to un-clampify and simplify the intake Who would have though a 1/2" hose stainless bulkhead fitting designed for below waterline bilge pumps would be what I needed Test fit on a 3" offcut I had laying around to see if it would work, and it worked a treat All going well the intake will be on its "final version" tomorrow 
    • Good luck on the weekend mate
    • Must have been an absolute nightmare to drive when the power steer was out, the rack ratio/wheel size/caster is all set up for power assistance
    • Welcome to SAU, what are you looking at buying?
    • I checked the injectors again (1 and 2, since they’re easiest to access) to make sure they weren’t clogged. Even though the entire fuel system had been cleaned, I wanted to be certain. Everything looked clean, so I reinstalled and connected everything. When I started the car to confirm everything was okay, it immediately revved up high, so I shut it off straight away. I checked to see if I’d missed a vacuum hose or something, but everything was connected. On the second attempt, the car ran without the high idle, but I noticed a distinct “compressed air” sound coming from the engine bay. Tracing the sound, I pushed injector #6 forward slightly and the noise stopped — it turned out it wasn’t seated properly, despite the fuel rail being bolted down. While holding it in place, the car idled steadily without stalling and ran for over 5 minutes. At this point, I pulled all six injectors out just in case I hadn’t seated them correctly or dirt had gotten onto the O-rings. Unfortunately, I discovered that I had damaged 3 out of 6 injectors (the OEM 270cc ones) during installation. So yes, this was my fault. Since only the pintle caps were damaged, I’ve ordered a Fuel Injector Service Kit from NZEFI to refurbish them. In the meantime, I reinstalled my new injectors – the car now idles fine for over 15 minutes without stalling. I have not attempted to drive it so far. It’s not perfect yet, as it hesitates when the throttle is pressed, but it’s a big improvement. Unplugging the IACV with the new injectors idles at around 800rpm, even with the IACV screw tightened fully. But this is probably due to tune.
