Hey all

Have seen these things in places like car shows and paint shops. They're like plastic blobs used for showing off paint colours.

Wanting to experiment a bit with some different colours, but without practicing on larger or irregular shape panels.

Cheers

Hi, I just seen your post - I am pretty sure these are the - House Of Kolor Chips or Speed Shapes they wanted to design a 3dimensional color chip rather than standard flat chips like most companies use. This allows as you would know the shimrin pearls chamelion and so on to really stand out and you dont need to move a flat panel around in the light to get your attention.

Hope this helps

Thankyou for the response. I have been looking for a while now. I've seen them outside of the House of Kolor range. Any idea where I could buy these?

Added above I think we posted almost close to the same time. Have fun and enjoy the new year.

Thankyou so much for this, have been looking for months for these. Enjoy your new year too.

No Probs glad I could help - if your in need of a full scale R33 Skyline for paint would gladly let you test with a nice fresh coat hah :)

    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
