Well it's a year later and i might actually get around to spraying the damn car. Does anyone know the colour code for Calsonic or LM Blue?

Also, has anyone seen one with this colour on the road? Any pics would be great.

Hey guys just revisiting an old topic. Finally got the money and motivation to get my car sprayed, decided I want to go with this:

There is a distinct difference between the LM Blue and the Calsonic, and I would prefer to go the Calsonic. Will a good sprayer be able to match the colour exactly?

I would love to paint this car for you!

I have painted many Nissans, Skylines and Silvias, and actually have SAU members cars in my panel shop right now!

Please give me a call anytime if you would like to speak about getting your car painted.

do you even know what the exact colour is suposed to look like? seen it in person a couple times to know the difference? i highly doubt u could tell the difference between exact colour and something pretty close

Wow you're really spamming up/advertising threads aren't you? ^^ Pay a trader fee if you wanna advertise. You probably charge an arm and a leg for work anyway.

Thankyou for your concern tom. i have no problem paying a trader fee, actually have tried contacting SAU about it in the past.

I not spamming, i am simply offering help to fellow SAU members as i am back in operation after having some time off.

And i give my full attention to every pant job i do for a customer. I do not charge an 'arm and a leg' rather i charge a reasonable price, but always give a customer more than what they have paid for.

Thankyou for your input tom :)

I've only seen it in person once, but there's a pretty big difference between the BT2 and the Calsonic Blue. As I don't have a colour code it's going to be hard to match I guess. Going off the photos it looks to be a few shades lighter than BT2.

    • I'm an idiot, my intercooler is rated for 1000hp. I had clicked on the wrong product. Knowing the delta P would be nice, but I'm doubtful I'll do it. Now as for an EMAP, that would be great and I'll get around to it eventually but from my findings in my last post, I'm considering a turbo swap now. 
    • You sir, big win tonight. Precision never supplied compressor maps in the past and Idk when they started, but it seems they only offer for a few of the older gen2's which is exactly what I have. I punched in some numbers and seem to have gone with the wrong turbo. 600-700whp isn't in the most efficient area and is close to the choke line. 800whp is well off the map. Punching the numbers into a 68mm gen2 turbo map is bang on in the center. Here I was thinking going smaller would shift the power band down, but in reality it would just make it so much worst due to my rev limit. I would have never thought. 
    • Increasing overlap will bring the torque down earlier (and make your idle sound sick lol). Worth a shot (if you dyno time) to experience a bit (providing you are confident your valves won't kiss your pistons). Is to just take off 5 degrees across the boosted area of the map, and then retard the exhaust cam let's say, 3 degrees at a time and then overlay all the runs with VCT on all the way and VCT off as soon as you make positive pressure. Ideally you would have a total of 6x overlays to looks at 0 exhaust & VCT off once manifold pressure is +ve 0 exhaust & VCT on all the way -5 exhaust & VCT off once manifold pressure is +ve -5 exhaust & VCT on all the way -10 exhaust & VCT off once manifold pressure is +ve -10 exhaust & VCT on all the way Just leave your O2 wideband closed loop on for all of the boost area & RPM, and hopefully there isn't too much fuel correction needed and the Haltech is fast enough to compensate (I do this, then apply the correction to the main table). Getting that overlay data should give you a good indication of what to aim for.
    • So, my main limitation here is that the car does not have an oil pressure sensor by default, just a switch. As part of my tune I bought an oil pressure sensor upgrade so I now have access to oil pressure levels and logging rather than just the boolean behaviour of the switch but this means I need to use the tuning app to display this value. So, this rules out using any other app on the iPad. The app will also flash when pressure drops which is a nice feature. I have replaced the centre screen with an Android one, which is awesome for Android Auto, but I think it might be too far away and out of my line of sight. I might add some gauges to it this weekend and just see. I guess if its just temp and oil pressure I can make them massive! 🤣  
    • This is what the look like normally. Except we only got the 2 doors locally
