skyline engine bays and boots are poorly finished compared to other makers of cars it is usually base coat or black, most white r33 don't even have color in boots, this was done to save money for Nissan, funny thing i have seen magna's and commy's with complete paint coverage in engine bays

nah its not black its like a grey colour.. just a dull looking grey i dunno if its the base coat for the silver or not

KN6 - Dark Grey Pearl...

But just don't add the 'Pearl' so it's dull... Haha!

I have the same colour in my bay (car is KR4). I had to touch some areas up around the cowl area and couldn't find anywhere that suggested what colour is was.

I ended up trying a few mixes, the closest one I could get was a light grey from dupli color mixed with a small amount of "duck egg blue" model paint. Actually came up spot on after a few goes at getting the ratio!

I look forward to the day when I can remove the engine and strip everything and get a nice coat of KR4 gloss in the engine bay mm mmm.

    • Hey. Very valuable information about pitwork, I will pay attention when buying any consumable parts 🙏 As for the carpets - I got a handful of information from nengun, from which it appears that indeed the carpets for the driver's side are OEM. They are not able to show me any pictures due to the long chain of different sales entities but after I place the order, as soon as the goods arrive at the nengun warehouse from which they will send the shipment to me they can send me photos and if my purchase differs from OEM I can immediately return it / cancel the purchase. I think I will give it a try 😉. Of course i'll let you know what's what as soon as i get them P.s. I know the topic is not relevant to the thread, but both nengun and amayama have these SICK 😍 trunk room lamps available. Do you know anyone who ordered them? I need to have one in my car

    • I believe @Duncan has given it a crack at Mt Buller before (in actual race conditions)
    • All my Polish car culture insight comes from watching Nightride. So I half expect this to get 1UZ swapped eventually?! Are you going to drive it in winter? I'm always curious how ATTESA would hold up in the snow. There isn't that much opportunity to try it in Australia.
