After hail damage, front bar scrapes, bonnet chips, mismatching panel colours from previous repairs, aging paint and now a rear ender...I may be respraying the R33.

Colour suggestions?

You have already decided on the colour :/

I'm also deterred by the cost of hiring a full time security guard

Don't be daft Adam, that's just added expense for R34 GTR owners.

Can be easily avoided by buying a R33 ;)

orange.

then get one of those spray jobs on the bonnet that look like it was a failed tattoo idea. good resale value on gumtree.

but serious, if wanting to be original, some subtle shade of orange

Why don't you paint your Pulsar Orange with white stripe in the middle?

2. I'm not even going to reply to the color suggestion request, since it won't be one of our suggestions anyway.

3. E85 E85 E85, how did I know that would summon the E85 god himself?

4. Alvin just got defected, but... I thought his car was compreetrie stock?

Cheers for the info re: gtst and gtr, hence my question as to how different they really are when fully set up

Which seems hard. For what its worth I wenT WOT from 0kmh with 375rwkw and had traction in first which was rather suprising. Howvever around a corner is considerably less likely.

Scotty would know how much of a stickler I am for the stealth look. If someone was just looking to buy a rb28 neo I'd sell them mine.

As for r33 colours, go get House of Kolor's Galaxy Grey. Someone did a drag r33 with this colour and it is fantastic. I asked about it for my r34 before the convo subject changed to 'prepare for write off'

Same colour. Unless you are doing bay, door jams etc, in which case MNP

IMHO darker colours suit the 33

Hey man that hurts :(

You can do that with a GTS-T though, to much the same degree...injectors are my only give away cause I cbf spraying them the standard colour.

Return flow IC is legal as long as you don't have a pod.

When I drove a GTR I wasn't impressed. Maybe it had been talked up or I don't hit the corners enough to justify having AWD, but having come from a well sorted GTS-T, I wouldn't pay the extra money.

I failed my full EPA because injectors were the wrong colour. Even though I passed the emission test.

I must say the colour choices you guys suggesting are bland as f**k..

gunmetal grey, bayside blue, mnp... Come on guys pick up a colour chart that isnt from the 90s nissan catalogue...there is 11ty billion more exciting colours to choose from...

a deep dark cola coloured red would look amazing...And the things you can do with silver to increase its impact 100 fold... Look at new cars for inspiration, mazda for one have heaps of cool new colours..

Think outside the box peoples..

that means that moorabbin guy was being a flamin mongrel to you.

i spotted his car at photoshoot the other night, all i could see was a piece of the front rim , i gone to Mick, is that Gregs car..lol....Its pretty messy...It just destined not to be on the road that thing.. You tried Greg, you tried really hard and you attempts all though futile are admirable..

    • So could it be assumed it has been installed intentionally with potentially a power FC boost controller kit? 
    • Had my rig on Matt's dyno at PITS the other day. After a few years between tunes I added a few sensors and swapped intercoolers. Result. 553hp at 26psi. Not bad for an FJ20 that was built in 2007. The problem.. It filled the overflow bottle on hard runs which leads me to believe the head gasket isn't sealing. I have a coolant pressure sensor which was reading cap pressure at 22psi and occasionally overrunning to 23/24 psi on deceleration after a pull. It was not spiking. It has arp2000 head studs and a cometic gasket. As its been 18 years in service, I pulled the engine out and head off. Everything looks good but we obviously have an issue. Where I'm at.. Years ago I had the same issue, I checked the stud tension and they were all over the place. Some at 60 to 70 and some up near 90. I nipped them all to 100ft lbs and this stopped the water push until now. I believe this compromised the gasket back then. What do I do? 2 options are..  1) I bought arp 625+s, which I could put in with a new gasket. Thinking Kameari this time, reassemble and try again. 2) strip the block, get fire rings machined in with copper gasket and try that. I do not want to push it more than 28 to 30psi. I think the turbo will be out by then anyway. (G30-770). My other concern is the long term ability of a copper head gasket. Are they streetable for years? I feel like a new gasket with the new studs will probably suffice, but I don't know. Any thoughts welcome and advice on copper gaskets and fire rings. Thanks!
    • I'm a fan of the JZX110, and the Aristo. Big cruiser cars, and with the factory cars, super comfortable and feel like you're driving an armchair! And the JZ motors are a pretty nice engine too, especially with some basic mods.   The import process, and the need to be able to trust people, and the fact there's so many scammers around is what ever puts me off wanting to go through that ordeal!
    • I don't care for these at all, but at least the underside looks straight and not rusty. A good basis for a long life. Many cars from Japan have been lifted with forklifts and f**ked almost irrepairably.
    • Yes, but it's not dumb or dodgy. You can build a perfectly good boost controller from a pressure reg, a relief valve (looks same same as a reg if all from Norgren or SMC, for example) and a check valve. I ran one for years. Only superceded with  EBC because I could get one for cheaps and wanted finer control.   THis mod is certainly not a sketchy boost mod, provided the boost is kept below the "spin to death" threshold of the turbos.
