got it...if i only looked properly under the bonnet...silly silly me...

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!

    • Sounds like you've got an interesting adventure ahead here with local support if you have trouble! My guess is that, unboosted, you will be OK with a small upgrade like -9. What will happen is that once the stock ECU sees more airflow than it expects it will add a heap of fuel and pull a heap of timing to be safe because it can't understand how it could get that much air without there being an issue. You will see clouds of black smoke and it won't pull hard through the midrange and top end. So, overall it will be a bit frustrating but should be OK. If you are still nervous set the base timing back 2o through the CAS, but it will be even more sluggish everywhere. As said above through...this is not my guarantee your engine won't be blown into a million pieces, leaving you looking for very hard to find parts A better idea is get a computer with logging ASAP, wire in a wide band O2 sensor and a use remote tuner. I've done multiple cars this way and while it is not as good as a specific tune on a dyno they can get it 90% right. I'd suggest if you can afford an R33 GTR these days you can afford an ECU and tune. And if you can't afford that you sure won't be able to afford the rebuild if it goes bad in the meantime,.  
    • Yeah it would be nice if someone took the time to put that sort of information together, but there are a lot of variations in looms. I think you are making this way hard for yourself if you just want to get it running....sourcing an SR20 with the right wiring will be a billion times easier than matching the RB loom to an S15 chassis. If you do end up going this way, you just need to trace every wire in the loom with a multimeter, 95% of them will go to a location you can confirm at the ECU.....and then post it up for the next person who needs it  
    • Just top it up with water, and keep a general idea of how much you added. It is normal for water to be pushed into and pulled out of the reservoir through the cap, and it should not be more than half full or it will be likely to overflow when hot. Any decent mechanic can do a pressure test of the cooling system to confirm if you have a leak. Keep in mind if it is only leaking a little and when hot it may well evaporate before you see it hit the ground
    • I'd ask the shop what they used and use that. Mixing coolants is sometimes OK, sometimes not, and you have know the details of each coolant to know whether it's a good idea or not.
    • Is it alright to top up with just another green coolant?
