.....not showing 4-dr love....its a big secret.... :laugh:

Seriously though, if not for the stickers, move to WA, for sunsets on the beach, better looking women, etc.

It's heaven here.....you don't get fined for doing a skid, infact, the cops give YOU $75 if they catch you doing one....it's great.

WA - the place to be.

haha you guys making stickers about a cefiro wasteland i made??? That is baller. I'm honured.

Just so you guys know. Marauders means those who like to have fun. A tribe called quest made an album called midnight marauders, i just made this thread so that me, jason and nic would stop whoring other threads in the cefiro section late at nights haha.

Seems fitting though ...dare i say i like what jase made... But honestly? Make the word ''MIDNIGHT'' indented. So it looks in motion, and make sure ''marauders'' is in a plain times newroman front... I like the second one... It's more ''nitto'' themed...

Also i suggest something else..

Along the spine of the ''m'' in ''midnight''...

We should get the kanji translation of ''sedan'' running along it in red. That would look sick.

Edit - i can get the kanji translation done tomorrow, and seeing as this was technically started by me, can i make exec decision to have ''midnight marauders'' open to all aust import nissan sedan owners? Not just wa cefiro owners?

Ps my gf says she saw a white ceffy stock bodied in northbridge tonight ...anybody know them?

If it had CEFIROHH Number plates then it's Raine, otherwise it's the guy who bought Nathans ceffy.

I didn't make them, but the guy who did, I will pass what you said onto him. And see where that goes

I got no probs with aust-wide sedan guys having these :laugh:

WHEN THEY'RE FINISHED. Kay?

fck pearl get arctic white like me and nic... pearl white doesn't reflect as good as flat white!!!

but it does look "wet" which works in it's favour...

beleive it or not - soarers use a different paint code to nissans... mainly because the Soarer is made by mitsubishi.

why do you need a paint code though? i never understand why everyone wnats paint codes for - the painters don't use paintcodes you realise...

the best bet is to just take it to your painter and say "match this colour"

or "give me this colour"

and they bring out their swatches... and you pick one.

then they make that paint for you... thye don't rely on genuine paint codes...

especially don't rely on paint codes for parts painting! what if your pearl white has faded over time? or if the tanens in the paint affect the colour? you'll have different panel colours then.

and when you have different panels ...people think you're a top bloke.

my advice - take to a guy. get them to just rough up the paint and go to town with a nice flat white.

Who knows the paint code for that pearl white Nissan have ? Iv seen it on soarers alot but my cef has it to. Although I think it used to be grey/silver I want to keep the white.

If its factory paint job, it's on your production plate.

Artic White is 362

I think Pearl is letter, letter, number (eg KH2 which is blueish silver)

    • Transmission synchros feel pretty bad at this point in my car and sometimes the clutch feels like it has an inconsistent engagement point in the pedal travel. I figure if I'm going to swap in a new transmission I may as well also put in a new clutch. Obvious candidates are ATS's pull-type twin plate carbon clutch, Nismo Super Coppermix Twin, or some organic clutch option I haven't figured out yet. I have searched this stuff to death at this point and still don't feel all that confident in making a decision. Target power is not much. ~330 kW at the wheels max. I ballpark the torque spec at 600 N-m. The stock clutch feels a little light so a little heavier is ok but I would say no more than 15-20% additional pedal effort. For some reason most clutch manufacturers want to keep this stuff a secret but the Coppermix Twin is 950 kg clamp load so I figure it can't be too much heavier than stock. The hang-up I have is some people mentioning that the clutch is very grabby which sounds like a pain. The stock clutch is almost too easy to modulate so I don't mind if it requires more precision than that but I don't want to deal with something that feels like I'm getting rear-ended at every traffic light. Also I see some mention of the release bearing carrier sizing requiring some work which sounds like something that might complicate installation? It would be good to know exactly what is needed here for a 1995 R33 GTR. The ATS clutch is supposedly the best but I've seen some complaints that they wear out easily and also slip when cold. I don't know how much of that is true but the cost is also huge compared to even the Nismo Coppermix twin plate. It's also unsprung which normally I would reject immediately but supposedly carbon clutches don't need it. The higher clamp load at 1300 kg is also a little concerning but to me more clamp load seems like it inevitably means more pedal effort and also more strain on the engine crank thrust bearings.  This is a street car and despite being a weekend car I seem to spend a lot of time crawling in severe traffic congestion with it anyways so I will gladly pay to have something that is easy to drive on and will hold the power with no unexpected headaches. I really don't want to do a clutch twice.
    • Grease the poly bushes as your first order of business. Moly grease. Spanner check everything else. Inspect LCA inner bushes.
    • It's usually associated with a muffler. Often in the middle of the muffler, sometimes at an inlet. Not removable by just slipping something out. usually needs butchery (read outright replacement of the muffler). There's absolutely nothing magic about any Jap exhaust brand. Totally generic. Totally replaceable with anything else that will do the job. I've replaced the centre muffler in mine a couple of times.
    • I've had a 9280, 9280's in stock form produce a bit of a whine when coming on unlike the 9180 so you may already like the turbo sound as it is.
    • So everytime the car is changing momentum, say you were going forward, and then you brake, itll do the creaking  and then wont happen when you brake again while still going forward. but once you put it into reverse and then you brake itll creak, but wont creak any more after while still reversing. And then again, when you go back to forward and the first time you brake, itll creak.  ( note will only happen the first time you brake when traveling a direction ). Wont happen, when youre going up speed bumps or hitting a pothole etc. Sound comes from Front left area.    I'm unsure as to what might be causing this sound so if anyone has any suggestions please. Ive got a set of R34 GTT brakes that I will be installing soon too. (and disregard the gutter rashes, from previous owner(s)... ) Otherwise, it has a shot set of Tein Coilovers, original bushings except poly on tension rods. Car has 138k kms. Video reference :
