[franks]

does anyone know if there was different shades of yellow released within each of the year model R34's?

eg 1. 2 cars here, what looks like the same shade of yellow. pale.

eg 2. what looks to be a brighter yellow

or is the camera playing tricks with me?

I'm confused as well.. yours seems to look a little bit paler... I prefer the paler one rather the the brightor more egg yellow.. hmmmm trust Nissan to have two shades of yellow!!!!

i'd prefer u to gimme the r34

i like the pale yellow better, i'm not really a fan of bright 'canarie' yellow cars...like the so many vl's, lancers, any other small car in compitition with the lancer.... though i wouldnt mind an r34 hehe

I reckon the pale yellow is a better colour. Easier to maintain looks like it doesn't fade as bad as the stronger yellow.

When is your car coming?

car is getting complianced in melbourne hopefully mr franks will have it in siddeley in 2 weeks or so... i think the pale looks much nicer, awesome in the sunlight stands out nicely and with that straight thru rear exhaust no muffler you can also hear it coming hehehhe

wow unanimous vote for the pale yellow i guess!!!

i actually preferred the brighter yellow!? i wanted to steer away from anything resembling the EVO 4 WRX yellow which i thought looked putrid!

well my car is yellow and as far as i know there is only one shade of yellow(please correct me if i am wrong)The code on my car is EV1.what do you guys with yellow 34s have for a paint code?

[franks]

i believe that is correct.

the name of the yellow is called "lightning yellow"

hey frank your car wasn't originally that colour was it

i had a look at the engine bay pics and it looks like it used to be a champagne type colour and it's been resprayed??

[franks]

the reason why the exterior colour looks pale is because of the camera. white balance is terrible and this is often the case for yellow. the car has not been resprayed, the camera just portrays the yellow extremely badly.

the engine bay colour of any car will be different to the exterior. most manufacturers will apply just an undercoat to save money.

take a look at these next two pics of a yellow EVO 7 i shot the other day.

the white balance is terrible in the first shot which makes it look extremely pale. this can be attributed to the overexposure on the flash...

removing the flash, the second shot is marginally better on the rear quarter portion of the car, and gives you better indication of the true stunning yellow of it.....
