BW6 G is mine...

I'll go to Supercheap, Repco and Bursons tmrw to find some paint...

I may have scored a WRX tail spoiler for cheap too, hence will need to spray that also.....I'll only buy it if it looks good...I like the WRX spoilers...(low type).

I just bought some reverse sensors and need to spray them to match my car colour. Where do I find out the point code or paint colour?

As far as I am aware, I know V35s come in white, black, brilliant silver, dark silver, ocean blue and dark blue...mine is the dark blue...

Thanks in advance.

Pretty sure yours is Caribean Blue paint code possibly BW6 or BW5.

Your build plate will have this info otherwise, give us your VIN and someone will FAST it for you.

It's not Carribean Blue, I don't know what it's called but the code for mine which is the same is BW6. Look on the Silver plate under the hood.

Your painter won't care anyway from what I've found, he'll just match it up using their own methods.

Edit: Hey hang on don't you have a camera anyway?

Check here oh and post another pic of your car?

It you give your painter the proper Nissan paint code it will be easier to match. Either way, first thing he would look for would be the color code on your build plate anyway.

SKizo...looking to remove it and put in a flush camera....

The reverse sensors are an added measure....I still have 'nightmares' over my last accident (Dec 08) where i backed my 2 week new porsche into a pole...ouch! F-ing blind spots everywhere on that car...

Thanks for the help...

Not twilight either. The yanks don't have that colour in their lineup.

Back when I was try to get a nismo bumper from the states, this was a sticking point as they come prepainted. I ended up just getting it from Japan.

no wonder i couldn't find the blue in that 1st g35 link....they were all so light coloured, compared to mine...

does anyone know where to get paint spray cans, mixed to match your car colour?

thanks again...

hmm...2nd g35 link is not my car's blue....

any other help? i just wanna rock down to supercheap or repco and buy a can of paint that matches my car's colour....but seems not!

    • Here is the mess that I made. That filler there was successful in filling dents in that area. But in the middle area. I can feel dents. And I've gone ocer it multiple times with filler. And the filler is no longer there because i accidently sanded it away. I've chased my tail on this job but this is something else lol. So I'm gonna attempt filler one more time and if it doesn't work I'll just high fill primer the door and see where the issues are because guidecoat is of no use atm.
    • Ok, so I think I sort of figured out where I went wrong. So I definitely overthinked it, and I over sanded, which is probably a large part of the problem. to fix it, I ended up tapping some spots that were likely to be high, made them low, filled them in, and I tackled small sections at a time, and it feels a lot better.    I think what confused me as well is you have the bare metal, and some spots darker and some are lighter, and when I run my finger across it, it' would feel like it's a low spot, but I think it's just a transition in different texture from metal to body filler.    When your finger's sliding on the body filler, and crosses over to the bare metal, going back and forth, it feels like it's a low spot. So I kept putting filler there and sanding, but I think it was just a transition in texture, nothing to do with the low or high spot. But the panel's feels a lot better, and I'm just going to end up priming it, and then I'll block it after with guide coat.   Ended up wasting just about all of my filler on this damn door lol  
    • -10 is plenty for running to an oil cooler. When you look at oil feeds, like power steering feeds, they're much smaller, and then just a larger hose size to move volume in less pressure. No need for -12. Even on the race cars, like Duncans, and endurance cars, most of them are all running -10 and everything works perfectly fine, temps are under control, and there's no restrictions.
    • Update: O2 sensor in my downpipe turned out to be faulty when I plugged in to the Haltech software. Was getting a "open circuit" warning. Tons of carbon buildup on it, probably from when I was running rich for a while before getting it corrected. Replaced with new unit and test drove again. The shuffle still happens, albeit far less now. I am not able to replicate it as reliably and it no longer happens at the same RPM levels as before. The only time I was able to hear it was in 5th going uphill and another time in 5th where there was no noticeable incline but applying more throttle first sped it up and then cleared it. Then once in 4th when I slightly lifted the throttle going over a bump but cleared right after. My understanding is that with the O2 sensor out, the ECU relies entirely on the MAP tune and isn't able to make its small adjustments based on the sensors reading. All in all, a big improvement, though not the silver bullet. Will try validating the actuators are set up correctly, and potentially setting up shop time to tune the boost controller on closed loop rather than the open loop it is set to now. Think if it's set up on closed loop to take the O2 reading, that should deal with these last bits. Will try to update again as I go. 
    • More so GReddy oil relocation kits, sandwich plates, etc. all use 10AN fittings. And same, I've only used 10AN and my car sees track work (circuit, doing laps, not 10 sec squirt business).
