Just a quick gotcha - Sonic silver (not the actual code 'KR4', but the name of the colour) is used post 2002, but is a different tint. Be sure to use the code & the name when obtaining paint.

oh ok. i thought that was the name for the silver on the R34's and S2 stagea's. what is the name for the silver on the stagea's then?

this site is usually a help but doesn't list sonic silver. nissan colour codes

Sorry, I may not have explained properly;

KR4 (Sonic Silver) is the correct colour for the C34.

BUT

There is another Sonic Silver used in later model cars that is not correct (I don't know the code offhand).

any idea where to get some KR4? ive tried two nissan dealers here in adelaide another paint supply place and they can't help me. Ive got a reasonable scratch in the front quarter panel i need cleaned up and would rather have the panel panted rather then just touched up.

help please!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :down:

I bought a 1 litre a while ago for a series 2 to respray the engine bay. Only used half of it. No longer need it, but I am in Brisbane

Just the 2 pac base coat alone was just over a $100/litre in a good brand

Any car paint supplies should be able to mix it up.

According to Glasurit paints there is one version from 1996-2002

I've only recently bought a small pot of touch-up and one pressure pack (with clearcoat mixed in) from Lonsdale Paint Supplies. I just asked for some KR4 Sonic Silver & a day later it was ready.

    • Hi guys, long time no post as per usual! It's been a busy year so far, the biggest thing being a new job.  After 28 years in the automotive industry I decided it was time for a change.  I was losing faith in the industry and where it's heading.  Now in a completely different industry (electrical) working for a company that manufacture water pump contollers.  Not as sexy as cars but it's an interesting,  challenging industry. I now don't work Saturdays which is a bonus!  It's still 50-55 hours a week but having Saturdays ack after 28 years of working them is awesome!   No news on the GT-R but i did decide to add some more JDM goodness into my life....           1990 300 ZX.  She's not perfect but for a 35 year old car she ain't bad!  Just going to tidy it up a bit and enjoy it.  It's currently auto but will start stockpiling everything for a manual swap. It WILL distract me even further from the GT-R but im hoping not for too long! It somewhat proves a 6'8" freak can fit in a 300 ZX.  Sort of...  I drove it home from the previous owners house in Melbourne via Black Spur and Merton Gap (2 awesome bits of Victorian twisty road) and it was amazing!  Handles so well!!!   I don't think it would be worthy of a full build page but I'll post up some of the upgrades here if anyone is interested?  Cheers guys!
    • End game is to: - Remove all the slop from old worn parts - Adjust setup so that the wheels actually fit and the car is drivable (currently it is not because of the extreme rubbing on the guards).   Progress over the last couple of days, removed the rear hubs! Next steps: - Buy bushings - Replace bushings/bearings on hub - Reinstall
    • Cracked deck  And other cam snap stuff   
    • A few random issues have popped up since my last update. My WMI pressure sensor failed within about 10 minutes of it seeing liquid. It was a 20$ China special, so I'm not surprised. My name brand replacement should arrive today.  My power steering assist also decided to crap out last weekend. The usual, works for about 60 seconds after starting the car then I lose it. I dusted off my old copy of NDS and connected to the HICAS ECU. Code 4 for assist solenoid.... I tested the solenoid and it's fine.  I knew the day where my HICAS ecu would crap out would come, and I welcome it. It was the last HICAS part on the car that is now in the bin. I've ordered an SSR and I will control the power steering solenoid with my Haltech ecu. It will be nice to have proper speed referenced assist again after all these years.
