Yellow on a r34 will look "vibrant and fun" - but you'll have to fork out $3K or more for a proper and professional job.

3k isnt that bad... i was expecting abit more. im thinking of doing the gtr front conversion and then just getting it fitted not sprayed and then when the rest of the body kit is done then get it all sprayed together... does that sound normal lol?

3k is pretty cheap I would bank on the 5k mark and anything less would be a bonus .

I also guess price would be depending weather its a colour change or same colour as inside edges would need to be done if its a colour change and this is where the price would go up .

Also with the body kits they take more time and a fair amount of materials .

its silver like yours now but i want yellow coz it brings out the tail lights

Yellow brings out the tail lights, wtf....

Every time friends and I see a yellow skyline we say "What a waste..!" or "Why would ya"

mate thats great good on ya

im gonna paint it the colour i like probably coz its my car... if you arnt going to help with the question why post?

Go yellow just to spite everyone that said to go blue :banana:

Remember, you get what you pay for. Your looking at around $5000 for a decent job although some places may do a decent job for less $$$. Just ask to look at previously painted cars that they have done to compare price with quality.

I vote yellow also...

depending where you go and the amount of body work required will also effect the price.

Bayside blue is a 3 layer colour and it is VERY difficult to match again so it will be the more expensive option.

    • Haha, i kow right? Could have bought so many cars for the same amount of money (or less) but driving Unicorn gives you at least +1mln to style 😅. Like wise man said "life's to short to drink cheap wine and drive boring cars" 😉
    • Newbie here, proud owner of an Autech 260RS. I'm on the hunt for wiring diagrams specific to the 260RS, particularly S1. I've ran my eyes through R33, R34 Diagrams, there are some similarities, however continue to find incorrect wire colours and pins on connectors in the 33,34 diagrams.   I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction? I'd be happy to pay for the originals in Japanese. I can translate them, at least they would be accurate.   Any help please would be greatly appreciated, never heard an RB26DETT before let alone driven one, and I've got a spaghetti monster of goodness to sort out.   Cheers Benny  
    • Hey all  im wondering if you can help me please I have put a rb20 box in my r34 gtt as my auto packed up and a friend had a spare box I know it’s not ideal but it will get me up and running for now. we have done the conversation and everything is working great but my Speedo we got a s13 speed sensor but my Speedo reads double now and I bought a speed converter but still not having any luck.  so I thought I’ll reach out and pick your brains  any help would be appreciated please as I wanna drive my car again 
    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻
