Hey everyone, I really need some help as quick as possible.

I have a 1996 s2 r33 gts-t which was damaged from front side.

All damage has been repaired now inside the engine bay needs to be sprayed?

Is the engine bay the same colour code as outside of the car? Im having alot of difficulty finding out as i already went off to buy KL0 and i just dabbed by finger in then put it against a part of the engine bay with its normal colour and it looks way off?

I know the outside of the car is sprayed clear and inside not but it still doesnt add up?

I know there is two silvers and the r33 gts-t. There is the darker grey sort of colour and just the normal silver. I got the normal silver sorry i dont have pics of it at the moment.

Please if anyone can give me the colour code for the engine bay that would be great. Or lead me to the right direction?

not 100% sure

some cars have different colour engine bays from factory... which is mostly coloured Black...

otherwise, Most have the same colour of paint but without a clear-coat/finish.

which actually looks more dull and matte.

otherwise, you could take it to a panel shop and get them to sample the paint and match something close via computer....

    • 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 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
