Note: not mine, just a pic I found while googling.... my car is black btw

mine has anodized blue, valve stems,caps,lugs,slotted brake rotors and calipers now.

i like red better but had a few blue items when i got the car from japan

mine looks very near that but white 5 spoke impul wheels

thinking of getting my calipers, cam cover, valley cover, and cam gear cover off for powdercoating.

I'm pertty sure that you won't be able to powder coat anything that is plastic, the heat need to set the powder coat will melt the plastic.

any idea what it would cost to powder coat rocker covers on an rb25 ?

Dohmar, Damo, message a member on these forums called "Craved" He's doing mine and the moment and may I say from what I've seen he does AWESOME work :D

yep i have read up on him a bit. how much did it cost you to post the covers?

That guy who did the 34 blog used "dupont vivid blue"..... doesn't look like it's going to be as easy as 'off the shelf'!

you can buy anodized colour paints in town now thats what I used last week, they handle pretty hi temps on short durations, rocker covers no problem.

brakes too , not racing , too hot

    • I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.
    • My Nismo 1.5 churps a bit on reverse turns when cold, but besides that feels like a stock diff.
    • Yes, but, I paid cash and I'm pretty sure the receipt was in the bin 10 minutes after I got home Note to self, keep all receipts

    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
