I have to be honest and this is totally person opinion... but I think this paint is not too attractive as it's got too much of the purple and the pinkish look - a bit feminine if you know what I mean. Why not go eletric blue or mightnight black with gold sparkles or something.

If applied right.. herlequin pain can look amazing!.. -on the right car in and in the right setting.. and skylines are not the right car..

most herlequin paint jobs look SH*T!.. be very careful!.. you can easily tell when its a crap one.. its blatent! And terrible..

and jut UGLY!

a bit feminine if you know what I mean.

...

with gold sparkles

would you like some fairy dust to go with your wand? ;)

harlequin can be a bit overboard when you have too many colours mixed in. just pick 2-3 colours and go with that - not to mention it'll be cheaper.

The only reason i do not like chameleon is because of the dominant brown colour; and don't try to call it Gold :yes:

Really; what car looks good in brown? :glare:

The new mazda 3's that come out in the chocolate brown/purple sort of colour are the sex (the colour i mean)

dont go the harlequin! looks sh*t.

leave that for the full sick commo drivers imho.

1. isnt it very expensive ?

2. if, lets say, you damaged a front guard...would u need to respray the whole car ? (the "flow" of colours wouldnt match if you just resprayed the guard?)

3. Can look good depending what color combos, and who its applied by...

Just my 2c :ermm:

    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
    • If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
    • Lock me in mate, although I'm not sure if I'll be heading up from Goulburn or down from Sydney, either way, return will be back to Goulburn
